Auckland's iconic 'creepy' Santa in pieces in Wanaka lot until next Christmas
Hi neighbours,
Auckland’s iconic “creepy” Santa, who for decades towered over Queen St’s Christmas shoppers, is currently lying dismembered in a large lot in Wanaka – and will be until next Christmas.
Santa will remain in the lot until he can be patched up and painted ahead of a Christmas reveal this year.

Mr Claus' owner National Transport and Toy Museum curator Jason Rhodes is looking for any information about the history of the Santa figure.
Do you know anything about the red character's past?
Rhodes has asked anyone who might know something about its past to contact the National Transport and Toy Museum.
