How about a US exclusive Thanksgiving supper Diorama set? A Pilgrim family, a Native American Family, a couple of tables for them to sit at, and a big roast turkey? 

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm roast turkey!  :woohoo:

The structural parts look potentially pretty useful. I will probably go for the full set 4884 though.
Just to point out - the brown steer with the latest Nativity sets is new, there hasn't been a plain brown one in the new body shape before.

I really like the cow (or bull) and the couple, especially the woman (she's GORGEOUS  :love:). I'm sick to death of angels (have a BUNCH). But that's easily fixed... and now with the kid popping.. well.. a whole new set of possibilities...

I set up my new nativity scene mixing it with my older set.

I see you also have a herd of those winged kids...

Wish they did some variety on those... or better yet, replace them with a cowie or sheepy..

The Angels are okay.  They are my chorus of angels upon high.  I ordered the newer wings and mounts from DS, hope they are in stock.

Great review & discussion regarding these sets :thanks:! I too like things in both sets, & wish they had included more for the money in the new version :-\! Thank you for showing us all of your combinations along with the good & bad details of new & old!
