City Advent calendars rarely surprise anyone — and yet they keep selling out. The 2025 edition earns a B by doing what it does well: eight minifigs, a new seasonal vehicle or two, and a daily build that keeps kids showing up.

The Full Take
Advent calendars live or die by the daily ritual, and this one nails the format. Eight minifigs spread across 24 doors gives the calendar real density for a City theme — you're not just unwrapping brick builds, you're assembling a cast. The little seasonal vehicles and micro-scenes hit their marks without overstaying their welcome. At $34.99 it's one of the more defensible buys in the City lineup right now, trading on the holiday countdown magic more than any single jaw-dropping inclusion. It's not going to wow a seasoned collector, but it was never meant to — it's a December ritual with plastic bricks, and it delivers that reliably.
