Well my two just arrived and they came complete with a sticker on the front warning about a choking hazard. Small parts not for children under 3 years. Should I open it before the season? Oh so sacralicious :wink: !

Mine arrived today also! I took the package home during lunch and left it sitting on the table, with a big sticky note attached saying "PLEASE HIDE ME!" so my wife can save me from temptation until December. ;)

Thanks again CC for the opportunity.

Mine is supposed to be here today. I'm waiting until December to open it up. I bought a city one for my wife so we can each have something to put together each day and my knights are going to beat up on her poor city folk. :D

Arrived today. But I couldn't find the super-secret decoder ring -- that's how super-secret it is!!!

My daughter wants to open the second one, so I guess both calendars will get used this December.

My two sets arrived yesterday. I haven't opened either one, yet. I'll take one to the next WAMALUG meeting to show off.

Yes! I got my 2 yesterday. I had to give them to my wife so I wouldn't be tempted. I feel like a little kid. The only thing destracting me is a new LEGO store opening near me today. Can anyone say "bye bye paycheck."

Hehe, I had mine shipped to home while I am at school so I wouldn't be tempted to open them until I come back for Christmas break.

I came home today to find mine waiting for me in my carport. One I just shoved in the closet for later opening or just having a sealed one. The other I opened one day at a time until I had assembled everything. After doing so I really can't believe that Lego isn't making this widely available here. I don't even like the new castle line (except for the Dwarves, which are in my top 5 best factions ever) and I still think this set is awesome. I also got quite a few extra parts in my set so I am pretty happy about that. I even like the plastic tray that the individual sets sit in until you open them. I threw away the box but kept the tray as it will come in handy when I am sorting Lego.

This set gets a 10/10 for me. It is like a minifig pack and an accessory pack combined and then given steroids.
