| Share the Magic Animated Santa's Village 1997
Chadwick-Miller Inc., Canton, MA 02021. Item # 31441, UPC
04491314413.
Santa circles the village in his sleigh, while an elf chases
behind. Three elves in boxes pop up and down. Two elves play
on the teeter-totter, and Mrs. Santa walks a child back and forth. A
reindeer swings on the North Pole and an elf carries a bag of gifts in
circles. The elf rolling the snowball isn't magnetized for
motion. The elves are about the same size as the D56
elves, and this piece may end up in my village.
Plays 26 melodies electronically. Sound can be turned off. Molded into bottom of piece is
"C1997 Four Star."
Requires A/C adapter, included.

| Christmas Magic North Pole Express by Trendmasters.
Copyright 1998, purchased 1999. Purchased for $44.97 at Wal-Mart. UPC
096882510034. Santa circles the village in his sleigh, while elves load presents on a
conveyer belt and the North Pole Express chugs around the workshop.
In addition to the workshop, four pieces are lit from underneath.
Plays several carols electronically. Sound can be turned off.
The decorations on the actual piece vary slightly from the photos on
the the box. This could be incorporated into the D56 village but I
prefer it on its own.

| Merry Gift Box Elves from the Enchanted Workshop. Made
in China by Capricorn Electronics, LTD., 1992. No UPC.
These three brightly "wrapped" gift boxes pop open randomly
to reveal an elf with different toys. There's enough wire between
the pieces to space them up to 18" apart. Although the elves
are big compared to the D56 elves (the boxes are 2.5" tall), I think
these will look great near the new Jack-in-the-Box factory.
Powered by a DC adapter and controller (included).
