Perpetual calendar
on January 7, 2025
Posted by: Emily Loa-Swain
Verified Purchase:No
My daughters and I love this perpetual calendar. I bought this last year. I'm wondering if there are other parts we can get to change the last two digits of the year to make this an heirloom in the family.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very simple built. Quite stable. I thought about combine both stand together to make it better display.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Easy build, good value

We enjoyed building this set, just two minor quibbles. Wish the date wheels were printed, stickers are a pain. Wanted the year with figures to be higher, so they can be displayed behind the dragon, but it’s an easy fix. Fun set, good price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Interesting idea, not the best quality control
on January 31, 2024

This is a cute little set that is a perpetual calendar to celebrate the traditional Spring festival. It comes with alternate bases and the ability to swap out the year numbers so it's not just for 2024. The minifigures included are good.
However, there are a lot of stickers included for a set of this size and the die cut on the sticker sheet was way off to the point where I would have called LEGO customer service for replacement if this had been a more expensive set and I wasn't more interested in the dragon boat base than the red envelopes and coins, etc.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A fine Lego calendar to use through 2038
on January 14, 2025

Verified Purchase:No
I bought this in January 2024 and forgot it until it showed up on Lego stores again in December 2024. I was annoyed that I biased building it during the intended year and surprised that a year-old calendar was being sold without a discount.
Even though the box art doesn't suggest there are spare parts or instructions to modify the set for other years, it turns out there are. It actually includes the parts and instructions to make all ten digits, and looks like it can display any year up to 2037 (so long as you don't lose your spare parts). Unfortunately, trying to build the "8" will use more quarter round tiles than the set appears to include, so you will have to raid another set for parts or retire your calendar after 14 years of faithful service.
I would recommend this to a friend!
