The back of the box shows the features of the set. The top of the box shows the actual size of the minifigure. On the side of the box, it shows another feature without the skating rink. It shows the drink stand and a tree along with the minifigures skating. Contents & The Build There are 4 bags of pieces in the box. In the of the bags, there is another smaller bag which makes the total number of bags to be 5. Here are the pieces after being sorted. Here are the minifigures. You get a female and a male minifigure. They have nice torso printing on them. They also have alternative faces as well. You first start off building the base of the set. You then build the skating rink. Complete Built Set The set is then completed with building the drink stand, the trees and the lamp post. Below is the completed set. The minifigures have one foot attached to the LEGO piece for spinning action while the other foot has the ice skates on. Here is the back view of the set. You can spin the set two ways. One is on the side with the blue piece and the minifigures would circle around the entire skating rink. Another function is the fountain which you can spin as well. The minifigures then spin in smaller circles. Though, the fountain spinning function doesn't spin as well. It has a nice drink stand with Christmas Wreath on top, cups and a money bill. The trees are decorated with snow as well. Here are the extra pieces from the set. Set Ratings Design: 9/10 Build: 9/10 Minifigures: 8/10 Playability: 9/10 Parts: 9/10 Price: N/A Overall rating: 9/10 Overall Thoughts This set took me about 45 minutes to build (includes sorting the pieces). The holiday promo sets usually this time of the year are very nice. It has lots of details and features. There are also no stickers which is a huge plus. This set is comparable to the Charles Dickens set.
