Lego Calendar for January 2016

There are a few things worth mentioning here:

• FREE Monthly Build on January 5-6. Spots are already filled, but VIP members can add their name to a wait list.
• Lego Minifigure Swap on January 18. Similar to Disney's pin trading events, I would probably recommend trading with the Lego employees. Always open your minifigures after trading and check for the Lego stamp!
• Download the calendar HERE! (Needs Adobe Acrobat)

Take the menacing Death Star and pretty it up with Lego Friends! Why not!
