Slider\u2019s tour van and a little figure of him, or the airport from New Horizons, etc.\u00a0 So yeah I probably won\u2019t get those sets.\u00a0 Heck, I know for a fact there\u2019s a Pac-Man LEGO set that lets you build a replica of the arcade cabinet but it\u2019s like, 300 bucks!\u00a0 I like Pac-Man, but not THAT much!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, the first set I got was Julien\u2019s Birthday Party.\u00a0 I asked for it for my birthday last year because I figured it would be fitting, but I didn\u2019t really get it until Christmas.\u00a0 It was only 13 bucks.\u00a0 In the Animal Crossing games, you can celebrate your birthday and the birthdays of the other animals, so that\u2019s probably why they did that here.\u00a0 The mini-figure is of Julien who is a unicorn, which is kind of weird, but sometimes they do weird stuff like that in the games.\u00a0 Hey, it\u2019s a video game, so why not?\u00a0 Here\u2019s the box it came in.<\/p>\n<p><a
