I didn't need it, and didn't know I wanted it, but when I saw the LEGO Star Wars 2024 Advent Calendar reduced to $44.99 $35.99 at Amazon I couldn't resist hitting 'Buy Now'. Sometimes you just need to treat yourself (maybe one of these lego sets for adults too?).
The calendar features 18 collectible mini toys and six Star Wars figures, with one each day until Christmas. What I love is the LEGO figures and toys chart the evolution of Star Wars, with entries dedicated to films from 1974 to the most recent releases, and even includes a 'Holiday Princess Leia'.
If, like me, you need a little fun distraction and want to treat yourself then Amazon has more LEGO calendars but the only other one reduced is the LEGO Friends 2024 Advent Calendar $32.99 $26.49, I've listed these and two more no-sale calendars below (because sometimes you need to pay full price for something you really want).
