Eight minifigs in an advent calendar at $39.99 is the kind of math that makes you check the price tag twice. The Star Wars theme brings the range — tiny ships, seasonal silliness, and enough character depth to keep kids (or collectors) guessing through December.
Is the price fair?A+Eight minifigs and a full December countdown at $39.99 — it's a deal almost any way you look at it.
Will you love it?C+N/A — advent calendars are about the experience, not long-term attachment.
Holds its value?ARetired Star Wars advent calendars have a consistent track record of appreciating, and this one's no different.
The Full Take
Eight minifigs for forty bucks is the headline here, and it's a strong one. Star Wars advent calendars have always leaned heavier on the character roster than the micro-builds, and the 2017 edition delivers on that front even if some of the filler builds won't wow anyone. The daily reveal format makes this genuinely fun to experience — there's a reason people buy it year after year rather than just seeing a list of what's inside. What you actually get quality-wise is uneven: some doors are great, others feel like LEGO® needed to fill a slot. But the minifig haul alone justifies serious consideration at MSRP, and the Star Wars license keeps the nostalgia engine running. If you're buying it for December joy rather than a centerpiece, this lands exactly where it should.
