If you are already permanently in the Lego camp and have older kids that will enjoy these little meaningless peices to add to a larger Lego collection, then this is fine. However, if you are undecided, are looking for a truly great advent calendar regardless of brand, or are looking for a younger child, I highly recommend going with a Playmobil calendar instead. After only a couple days withe the Forest Animals calendar from Playmobile, the value is evident. These Lego calendars do not create an actual scene that means much of anything. As another reviewer noted, they seem like a bunch of disjointed pieces that have little to do with eachother. Additionally, they don't have much to do with Christmas, although, neither do some of the Playmobil models, depending on which you get. Overall, if you want a good calendar, high quality to use for more than one year, I would avoid this and go with Playmobil.","review_amount":"109","rating_original":"3.1","rating_converted":"62.00","author_name":null,"embed":null}]}
