I'm finding that the pieces and toys are exactly the same as the calendar • I
purchase last year, 4124.

very disappointed that this is the same calendar from last year. I think
that next year I will stick to the Playmobil advent calendar unless Lego
guarantees that the calendar is actually new.

I suppose this would (...) (22 years ago, 20-Dec-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)
