My son has never received a LEGO Advent calendar before but this year since he pointed out to me that it was on sale I bought it for his birthday. He will not open it until Advent but from the pictures and review YouTube videos he has watched, this is what he thinks. He likes the exclusive sweaters for Poe Dameron and Darth Vader. He likes the different microbuilds including: the Razor Crest, the Millennium Falcon and many more. He likes all the minifigures and overall he LOVES this LEGO Advent Calendar! He loves LEGO and even has a YouTube channel where he will make a video showing this calendar and some other things coming a few weeks from now!

The legos are great as always. Packaging once again was worthless. They put it in a very large box, without additional padding and expect that the box that will be tossed around within the large box and wont be damaged? And the taping had come loose and the box flap was open. Thankfully it was the only item in the box so nothing smaller got lost. But since there was no additional padding, it allowed the box to get smashed and ultimately damaged the lego box also. My grandson thought I had bought him a used set due to the wrecked box. Very poor packaging.

I bought the Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar in 2018 and it was okay and so I skipped 2019. But when I saw this one and the special Xmas sweaters Poe and Darth Vader are wearing I couldn't resist. It's also a cute tie in to the upcoming Lego Star Wars Holiday Special. So it looks like Lego have listened to their customers and given us fans some unique and festive Lego parts. I've not opened it yet but know I will find it fun and a great addition to my SW Lego collection. I also love the box art too.

I have given my adult daughter the Star Wars Advent calendars for the last few years. Each year has gotten better, with details and the items you build. I am very impressed with this years collection. None of the builds are complicated, each day is basically just a token build, but she enjoys looking forward to each days surprise. She displays them in her work cubby.
