Do note that I’m based in Melbourne, Australia (GMT +11) so we’re ahead of most of the world (except New Zealand) so to avoid spoilers, try to come back to this post after you’ve opened your window and built the daily model especially if you’re located in other time zones. One is a nice guy everyone likes and I’m sure he was left off the invitation list by mistake, one is a random party crasher, and one NOBODY wants there but his brother brought him and swears he’ll be good this time. He’s a core member of The Avengers but this version is pretty common, so there’s nothing much to get excited about if you already have this variant. Not a bad cast with 7 important characters spanning the Infinity Saga and I can’t wait to see what we get tomorrow for Day 23!

Delight any Marvel fan aged 7 and over this Christmas with the LEGO® Marvel Avengers Advent Calendar (76267). Give a young Super Hero a special start to the festive season with the girls' and boys' toy advent calendar 2023.Here’s the front of the 2023 Avengers Advent Calendar, which folds out to form a playmat of sorts where you can display all the mini builds. AthleticLeg039 Great option to get many mini figurines Many of the avengers characters are present, the side items are great as well. I do like the HUD (heads up display) on Tony’s face, which looks cool, and he also comes with 2 power blasts elements, which you can flick by pressing the “tails” inwards to fire them as projectiles. It’s been such a roller coaster of an Advent Calendar, with some really high highs, but low lows as well, making it feel like such a dysfunctional experience. I truly don’t understand why they split days up like this where minifigure accessories are separated from their minifigures.

As always, the instruction of each day’s builds are printed on the inside of the doors, so be careful and try not to rip them out! While it’s well-designed, using a car door as wrapping paper, and you get a pair of scissors (plus a spare! That along with EVERY character having holiday themed clothing would have completely changed the experience. There’s a clip on the side, which suggests that there will be feature builds that attach to this, so maybe there’s going to be a present assembly line of sorts?So yeah, we’re off to be a bit of a slow start, although casual fans and those who don’t own 76216 Iron Man Armoury will be happy to get the newer Iron Man helmet and be able to add it to their collection! The design features Loki’s signature colours – dark green and gold, and the two “horns” and trans-green elements are more hallmarks of the God of Mischief’s style. Fish-Fil-A Sheshway95 Barely Marvel themed We only got 3 things that were Marvel related which were an avenjet, Loki's throne, and an arc reactor on a stand which you can't even tell what it is without looking it up. And with no explanation of what it was, he was so disappointed (first-world problem I know, but for a kid it's a big exciting thing, and for us its expensive! After holding off my son(and myself) opening the Star Wars advent calendar for the last month we finally had our moment together this morning.

A big thank you for joining me as we count down the 2023 Marvel Advent Calendar and having to put up with some big stinkers of the days!

MostPureElephant Disappointing Was disappointed to find that this calendar contained mostly lazy, generic builds that lacked theme and excitement. This build was a lot of fun and I especially love the use of colour here, with pops of pearl gold and a trans-red rockpit. It seems that every year is hit or miss as far which advent theme will be great and which will fall short. If yesterday’s lonesome Cloak of Levitation is any indication, on Day 18 we get Doctor Strange as expected.

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice.Melding LEGO and Technic in the most ingenious ways, the build is especially challenging but rewarding, especially when you see the functions in action! Her Christmas sweater is phenomenal, and I love that the Black Widow symbol has been appropriately Christmas-fied.
