December is a month of traditions, and one of the biggest of these age-old customs is a daily snack of chocolate via an advent calendar. It’s time to buck convention in the mighty Marvel manner, as instead of assembling a mouthful of sweets, you can assemble some Avengers, Jedi, and wizards instead with Lego advent calendar building sets.
There are five Lego advent calendars available based on Marvel, Harry Potter, Star Wars, and original Lego properties, and each kit is discounted by up to 25% at Amazon and Walmart as part of their early Black Friday deals.

Over the course of 24 days, you can assemble some great toys from the Lego Advent Calendars. For example, the Avengers set includes seven minifigures–Okoye, Doctor Strange, Captain America, Spider-Man, Wong, Iron Man, and Black Widow–and several mini-builds that you can pose with them.
The Spider-Man minifigure in particular is delightful, as it gives the webhead a festive season makeover where he dons some delightful apparel. That’s right, it’s Spider-Man wearing a Spider-Man sweater.
The rest of the included heroes are all wearing their signature costumes and armor, and you can use them alongside the buildable Quinjet, jetpack, ice hockey kit, Hydra Train, and more to create your own mini Marvel Cinematic Universe. Once you’re done, the box converts into a cute diorama background to use to show off all your hard construction work.
The Lego Harry Potter set has six minifigures and 18 Hogsmeade Village mini-builds, the Star Wars set has several adorable vehicles to build, and Lego City has an easy-to-build design.
These are officially licensed Lego sets as well, so what you get in this box will be compatible with your other Lego sets. Alternatively, Amazon is also offering a Super Mario advent calendar that includes 24 popular characters and accessories.
