About this deal

LEGO have another classic Winter set on their hands with 10267 Gingerbread House, and it’s not an understatement to call this one of the best Winter Village sets of all time. It was fun to build and I quite liked that everyone made a bit of it. It’s part of the Creator range but we didn’t find it particularly difficult to build. The set includes a lovely gingerbread house with lots of detail, a gingerbread man and lady figure with baby, a Christmas tree with presents and toys.

We tried to help him organise his Lego sets by labelling each drawer. This lasted a few days before everything got mixed up again!The icing on the cake (heh) is really the dollhouse design and inclusion of plenty of living areas which allows you to setup so many different scenes for the Gingerbread family.

The upper level bedroom has quite a few fun little design flourishes. The bed looks like a bar of white chocolate, and there’s a cotton candy (fairy floss for you Aussies) lampshade as well. Let’s meet the Gingerbread family! We have Mr Gingerbread, with a very respectable dad moustache, and Mrs Gingerbread who sports a gingerbread skirt. It’s kind of a shame that LEGO didn’t modify the baby mould and turn it into some infant gingerbread monstrosity, but the printed gingerbread baby tile is still adorable as anything. Here’s a look at the completed and wow, the end result is such a beautiful, unique and eye-catching model.Then we attached the base plates. I bought a few and spray painted one of them with white paint. My son had received lots of Lego Arctic sets for Christmas, so I thought it would be fun if he had a snowy looking base plate. In my head, yes, it does fall within the theme as I view this set as an actual Gingerbread House in a Winter Village home, lovingly baked and set up before being devoured by a hungry family at Christmas. LEGO must’ve done something right as the set has been sold out for weeks now, which speaks to how well its been received by LEGO fans. It does raise a few questions. Firstly, it’s good to know that Gingerbread people poo just like us, but more importantly, what is the bathtub filled with? Don’t they get soggy if Gingerbread gets soaked in water? The last time LEGO veered from your typical Winter Village build was with 2014’s Santa’s Workshop, so this kind of feels like we get a fantasy build every 5 years.
