Okay. There will be a home of some capacity; with the red phone, mug and stove. The always present Green Tree and Street lamp. Winter Village Caravan?

That would certainly help Make LEGO Great Again.

Someone on EB is saying there’s leaked photos online of the holiday promo set for this year. Can’t seem to find it....

I hope we can see a modern day post office for Winter Village theme one day as the postal/courier industry is becoming more and more vital to our everyday lives, especially during the holiday season.

Promo set is 40293. Just google image it. Nice companion to the Snowglobe and Nutcracker.

Nice!! Should be nice payoff for those still holding the Snowglobe

I dare say that I like 40293 better than the snowglobe or nutcracker.  That knob obviously turns the carousel - I'll take that feature over another drawer.  

I still wish they would go back to doing at least one promo each year that fits in as part of the winter village.  The small elf workshop that went with Santa's shop was great, and the horse drawn sleigh is still a standout.  

I'm hoping this leak is an indication that we'll get the full reveal of the WV set next week.

Interesting, thx for the post.  Looks like the top rotates using the pin sticking out the side of the base.

BTW, I found this image (http://editart.club/pipr.html) online but I don't recognize it.  Is this a MOC or is it possibly the new winter village set?

 

Admittedly, I don't see the Christmas tree, phone, or lamp that was teased by LEGO.  But there is a snowman on the side of the building.  I suppose everything else could be on the inside.  I kind of like it, if this is it.

Image isn’t available (or at least I’m not seeing it on mobile)

If it’s a small volunteer fire station I guess that’s okay. I’d personally prefer a lodge of some sort. Some place for skiers to enjoy time in the evening.

This could be a new series.  Holiday mantel decoration sets

[DadsAFOL]

In my world, Carousels should be wider than they are tall.

Better now?

I would love to see TLG follow last year's pattern with their employee gift.  The large nutcracker set was nice, but imagine the holiday carousel they could create with upwards of 1000 pieces.

Is there going to be anything similar to the Halloween Haunt (40260) this year? All I have seen is the (terrible) brickheadz witch.

I think they're trying the brickheadz instead of vignettes for a while.  There haven't been any since last Christmas. I too prefer the vignettes. Not much playability with BH.

I’ll bet we see Halloween Haunt at retail on Amazon and at Barnes, like the other vignettes from last year. But no new ones...more Brickheadz.

NM, I found the original source, it was a MOC done in 2017.  LEGO Winter Creamery.  Looks really cool.  https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/119024-winter-village-creamery/  Wish that was a set.

Amazon has Halloween Haunt 40260 right now.
