What are the set #s of the individual sculptures?  I'd like to look at them
online.

The individual set #'s are as follows:

Santa Claus - 10068
Tree - 10069
Reindeer - 10070

I poked around the LEGO.com site for a bit, but can't seem to find them.
Using an item # search the site tells me that they are "not available in
this country".  That was using both Canada and the U.S.  Maybe the database
that feeds the website isn't in synch with the catalog, who knows?  So I
guess if you don't have the catalog yet, it's hard to imagine what they look
like.

They are just as you might imagine, a small sculpture-type set of each
character/item.   I like the looks of them because they remind me of the
non-minifig people that are seen in the Ultimate LEGO Book, inhabiting many
of the buildings and streets at the theme parks.  Best of all, other than
some eyes for Santa and the reindeer, they use almost entirely traditional
bricks, slopes and plates.  At 39 pieces, Santa costs only $2.49!

Again, I think this is a great little set of creations and I sincerely hope
they find success with them.  I'd love to see other mini-sculptures, in
other themes.  Maybe that could be a contest of some sort.  Create your own
sculpture using 50 pieces or less.  And release the winner as a set, the way
they've done with the My Own Creation series.  Just a thought.  :)

Try Kxxxx, where xxxx is the set # for each of the sculptures - odds are that
one of those will work to pull up the entire set (like KS1256 is the complete
set of S1252 - S1256 Shell sets).

I suspect you're right.  I'm not too concerned at the moment... I was just
sort of giving a heads-up, in case anyone at LEGO was curious why people
weren't ordering the set of three out of the catalog.  :)

Anyway, I'm going to order a set or two of all 3.  I want to have a little
Xmas scene on my PC at work.  I'm not much on Xmas, but it's a nice excuse
to bring some LEGO in to work.  :)

All the best!
Allan B.
