A Charlie Brown Christmas Wooden Collectible Set

Popping onto the September schedule is something calledĀ A Charlie Brown Christmas Wooden Collectible Set. What is it? Well, it’s published by Running Press, and it’s listed as a 32 page paperback, but the name suggests it has “stuff”. So I’m assuming it’s one of their “kits”, the little boxes with booklets and items. Their A Charlie Brown Christmas Snow Globe Mega Mini Kit from 2012 had a 48 page minibook adaptation of the TV special. So I reckon it will either be a few painted wooden items with an adaptation, or a few unpainted wooden items with a book of stickers to decorate them with.

Of course, I could be utterly wrong. It could be something utterly different. Does that possibility bother me? Well, I’ve already gone ahead and ordered it anyway!
