This here... this is a LEGO set.
Yeah, that's definitely a Lego. That set absolutely exists. You can't question that.
Nice job with the promotion too, Huwbot. We can do this!
The Fruit is still in sets today.
The Dish was used last in 2016 Star Wars/Frozen sets
The Book was last used in 2018.
Interestingly enough, those chrome cups were used as headlights in a 2002 Star Wars set as well (set 7133).
Say what you will about Scala, but there’s so many cool little Lego accessories in this one!
Do I hear a call for a Scala revival if only for the parts?
Good bot !
What’s the title of the book?
Scala gives me nightmares--the facial sculpts of the dolls are horrible (but, only marginally worse than the doll line Matchbox put out during the last few years they were in England). But, I admit, I like this set, despite being HIDEOUSLY out of minifig scale.
You've got printed gift boxes that hold gifts. You've got a really tasty looking cake (and enamelware-looking stand!), a fruit bowl (and stand); and especially a chrome tea set with tray,
The bad thing--pretty much any decorated element is a sticker.
What exactly is the "Deco Magazine No. 9"? Bricklink says it contains cardboard cutouts, but I at, first, thought it just went along with the set. I'm guessing it's a full-size booklet, not doll size, correct?
And do the gift boxes have anti-studs on the bottom?
Other than the fruit and dish, is there any other actual Lego pieces in this set?
Those cakes, I wish LEGO would bring those back
Huh, I'd always the various fruit pieces we get had trickled in via City over the years. Turn out nope, all Scala, all this year

They're all actual LEGO pieces, just not the usual 2x4 bricks everyone's always looking for.
That's an awesome set of accessories. They would go great in a Sylvanian Families house.
(Aka Calico Critters house for you American lot)
This is a great parts pack! So many great pieces are included. Say what you will about Scala, but there is no doubt that the line was great for parts, and this set proofs that.
Sounds like it's asking you to support the random set rather than huwbot lol.

Ah yes, a set we still haven't seen a remake of.
Even though Scala looks so weird, I find myself intrigued by the theme.

Try again, Huwbot.
I remeber getting it! I used those pieces in SO MANY PLAYS, I still have many of those pieces, and the cake is now presented in my bakery!
Also - ALL pieces were stickered besides cake!
Now this... this is beautiful.
