Winter Village is a series of Creator/Advanced Model sets that are focused around the winter holiday season. Initially released in 2009 with the Winter Village Toy Shop, LEGO released new sets under the Winter Village subtheme almost yearly around the holidays with sets focusing around Christmas.
2012 LEGO Sets
In 2012, LEGO experienced a landmark year, particularly in licensed themes and brand expansion. One of the biggest announcements was the renewal of LEGO’s Star Wars license with Lucasfilm, ensuring that Star Wars sets would continue production until at least 2022. This solidified LEGO Star Wars as one of the company’s most successful and long-lasting themes.
