Is it repetition, or a holiday tradition? A shocking alternative viewpoint that I'll be ignoring for the rest of the countdown.
DOOR NUMBER EIGHTEEN
I do wonder, though, why there are four lights, but only two colors. Wouldn't a four color system make more sense?
Anyway, as I mentioned in today's comic, the lights are at least red and green, making them vaguely Christmas-y. (In the same way a traffic light is vaguely Christmas-y) I should also acknowledge that the red and white "danger" striping on the earlier CITY barricades was also sort of "Candy Cane-ish".
Yes, it's a stretch. But I'm trying to give CITY a chance.
DOOR NUMBER EIGHTEEN
Another "mystery to me" door. The teddy bear I get. It falls in to the "Fairy Princess Bedroom theme" The barrel of yellow dots and the shovel? No idea.
It is meant to be a Winnie the Pooh mention, with the props being a barrel full of honey?
Is it...um....a social commentary on "Gold Diggers" and how they're really teddy bears at heart?
Does anyone know of a fairy tale or children's story that might fit this mix of items?
JUDGMENT:
The teddy bear is a rare piece for LEGO - but that's the only thing that the Belville door has going for it. After deducting a few points from Belville for "they just picked up some random crap and put it in the same baggie", CITY ended the day with a clear lead.

IT'S A GOLDEN BEAR!! How can that lose?
It's brilliance.
I have to go with the bear and his
"pooh-per scooper". No, the train signal thingy doesn't accurately represent any real signal very well, it's just lame.
THERE IS NO reason this i the blog entrey i am saving this coment for.just 3 words doyle.stop.bieng.rude.sorry about my rubish spelling
Somesome:
Stop being rude? Color me confused on that one. I may be a bit curmudgeonly, sure...but rude?

Go vote your feelings. Belville might trounce CITY yet today.
Yeah, I thought that having something that looks like a gift, and a rare one at that, made for a much better advent entry than a train light that in coincidentally the holiday's colors.
Plus, it's like the Poopsmith as a bear.

What a signal shouldlook like.
Model-wise the signal's more fun to make, but the bear has a bear... I vote for the rare bear-them yellow dot's aren't that common either.
