The Brothers Brick
“As far as a recommendation goes, how could I not recommend Santa’s Sleigh with reindeer? If you’re looking to add a little holiday cheer to your home, get this set. It’s easy on the display space and sturdy enough to get down on the floor and play with it. If you’re... More interested in getting four additional reindeer to complete the lineup, you’ll have to either get a second Santa’s Sleigh set or purchase them individually from another source.”

Jays Brick Blog
“Santa’s Sleigh pulled by Reindeer is really iconic, so I can see this one holding its value well. This is at its core, a super festive set, and I think it makes for a great addition to your LEGO Christmas display, or Winter Village as we’ve never gotten a detailed Sleigh... More pulled by full-sized Reindeer before.”

About Seasonal Christmas

Christmas is the Seasonal subtheme for LEGO's holiday sets, and new ones come out every autumn. The earliest are small Santa builds from 1999. Many of the smaller sets are given free with purchases in November and December rather than sold, which is how 40410 Charles Dickens Tribute, a scene from A Christmas Carol, reached most people in 2020.

Christmas was introduced in 1999 and currently consists of 120 sets. As of today, 40489 Mr. and Mrs. Claus' Living Room is the most valuable Christmas set with an estimated new/sealed value of $280.
