The Dept 56 Christmas in The City The Times Tower Special Edition Gift Set is perfect for New Year’s celebrations. Made of porcelain and ceramic, this collectible was a limited edition and is retired. I’ve already inserted “2027” for the 2027 new year. Additional snap-on numbers are included for future celebrations. It’s easy to change the year. With the push of a button, the sparkling Ball atop The Times Tower illuminates and begins its descent. It takes about 6 seconds for the ball to descind. After the ball drops, after about 11 seconds, the ball will ascend automatically. This set Includes: “The Times Tower” Porcelain Lighted Building, with 2 light bulbs; The New Year’s Kiss Porcelain Accessory; 1 Small Container of Confetti; additional snap-on numbers for future celebrations. The Tower to the top of the ball measures 18.5 high. The woman in the “New Year’s Kiss Porcelain Accessory”, has lost her ankle/shoe.

I tested it with both and it lit up brightly. You will need to provide your own power source. Really nice building take a look at the photos. The photos are from the exact item you will receive.
