LEGO 76196 Super Heroes The Avengers Advent Calendar

Product Information

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. She’s a key supporting character in the Black Panther movies, and Okoye has an important position as General of the Dora Milaje, the elite military unit that protects the Black Panther in Wakanda. As others have mentioned as an example, getting just a cape, and then the minifigure on another day, what's that? At least it looks festive but at this stage in the Advent Calendar you really should be ramping up and building hype as we approach Christmas Eve, not apply the emergency brakes like this. Thought I'd try something different this year and purchased the Avengers calendar, and it was really disappointing.

All reviews, thoughts and reactions are live as we go along, there are no pre-planned photos or thoughts, unless I happen to be travelling or away from home. Very surprised to already get such a festive build 2 days in, but I won’t complain as I think it puts a nice Christmas spin on a very iconic Avengers vehicle. Snowpeople are a staple of Advent Calendars, so this one is at least semi-relevant, although it would’ve been really cool if LEGO had given us a plain white Iron Man helmet. That along with EVERY character having holiday themed clothing would have completely changed the experience. We start off the 2023 Marvel Avengers Advent Calendar with Iron Man, the lynchpin of the Avengers and the Infinity Saga.It’s a shame that he doesn’t have a festive Christmas jumper like Black Widow or Spider-man, but this is just plain old Steve Rogers. This version of Okoye is slightly uncommon, as it’s only appeared once in 76214 Black Panther: War on the Water, so if you didn’t pick up that set, you’re in luck as this is a fairly affordable way to add this Okoye variant to your collection. Unfortunately, there’s nothing exclusive about this minifigure as the Mark 85 Armor has shown up in 76131 Avengers Compound Battle, 76192 Avengers: Endgame Final Battle, 76216 Iron Man Armoury and 76237 Sanctuary II: Endgame Battle. Wow, the 2023 LEGO Marvel Advent Calendar finally comes into its own with a most excellent build in Day 8! Bit of a weird one – not the worst day but I do wish it was slightly more clear what this is meant to be.

The design is quite angular, making it look kinda like the Avengers Tower but it’s lacking a topper or star! And that’s it for Day 18 – at least there’s a healthy number of minifigures here, but I still feel like LEGO should’ve included the Cape with the Doctor Strange minifigure – it just feels like they’re stretching out the days by splitting up key accessories and their corresponding minifigures. With no Christmas Tree in sight, it doesn’t take a genius (billionaire, playboy, philanthropist) to guess what we’re getting on the final day! If yesterday’s lonesome Cloak of Levitation is any indication, on Day 18 we get Doctor Strange as expected. com Heads up, today is the final day that you’ll be able to score 2x LEGO Insider Points on all purchases on LEGO.I said of the Marvel calendar last year that I’m almost checking in every day to see how bad it gets and I can’t believe it’s the same again this year! There are 7 minifigures – Okoye, Doctor Strange, Captain America, Spider-Man, Wong, Iron Man and Black Widow – plus mini builds and accessories that kids will recognise from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including a mini Quinjet and the Hydra Train. 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. Delight any Marvel fan aged 7 and over this Christmas with the LEGO® Marvel Avengers Advent Calendar (76267). I’ll update this post each day, as I don’t really enjoy the practice of creating new posts for each day as it keeps it so much cleaner, so bookmark this post to come back every day!

bratz6 One day is ONLY a cape :( I have bought my 2 big boys Lego Advent Calendars for a few years now along with the hubby. LEGO could’ve easily included this in yesterday’s window, but for some reason, we get a whole day dedicated to random accessories. It seems that every year is hit or miss as far which advent theme will be great and which will fall short. Festive minifigures like these are usually reserved for the back half of the calendar, but I’m really impressed to get another main Avenger so soon after Day 1’s Iron Man. It’s been a tradition to read your comments for the last 5 years before school while we make what’s in the box.

This year, I’ll be counting down all 5 LEGO Advent Calendars – Star Wars, Harry Potter, Friends, City and Marvel.

HonorableFlakySoup103 Images didn’t match contents Three of my child’s days did not match the contents in the box.If Lego can’t think of better items than webs, cape , or tree stand then it’s really time to think about retiring the Marvel Advent. I bought the Marvel, and Star Wars … I thoroughly enjoyed it last year, so I was looking forward to it this year. Half of the builds we had to look up to figure out what they were supposed to be since they had nothing to do with Marvel. The fact that Lego could possibly be the source of disappointment during the holiday season for an 8 year old is just crazy, we won’t be using a Lego advent next year.
