New 2021 LEGO Advent Calendars: 5 Titles!!

LEGO advent calendars are a fun and popular way to count down to Christmas. This year LEGO is offering 5 different brand new calendars. Find your favorite theme, or collect them all for maximum micro-building fun this December! 

LEGO advent calendars come in fun boxes that open up to reveal a "set" or display scene that is ideal for setting up your mini builds each day. 

LEGO advent calendars often include exclusive pieces or minifigures and are usually a great per-piece value, when purchased early at the suggested retail price.

Reminder: LEGO advent calendars are not tied to the year they are issued; the builds are mostly "evergreen", so older calendars can be given as gifts as well as the latest boxes. The boxes featured here are all new for 2021 but will make great gifts for fans in the years to come. Conversely, if you find a wanted title is sold out, you might be able to find a previous-year advent calendar for gifting -- though it might have the premium price you'd expect to find in a discontinued, collectible item.

Beware: if you are purchasing a LEGO advent calendar for yourself, the Amazon product pages includes SPOILERS that reveal the surprise toys within. This post includes mild spoilers below.
