Recommendation: meh 4.8 / 5 from 47 reviews

Preordered this about a month ago and we got it today. It's an advent calendar but we opened it like any normal lego set. My 6 year old daughter loves it and so do I. I attached a picture with 4 pictures, 3 are my own set and then 1 is the stock picture. What you see in the stock picture is EVERYTHING you get. There isn't anything missing from that picture. Of course you will get extra pieces just like a normal lego set just in case you lose something. (You can see the “extras" off to the side of my 3rd picture of everything built). The build instructions are on the inside flap of the square you open. Even though we opened it all at once, we took turns and the anticipation for the minifigures was REAL for my 6 y/o hah.... so a heads up for parents: The characters are in squares: 1 (Harry), 6 (McGonagall), 10 (Ron), 14 (Hermione) , 18 (Flitwick), 23 (Dumbledore). Also a fun snowman in square 15. Gold statue minifigure in square 21.

My Boyfriend got this for me. I LOVE it. The box that it comes in is great quality. And the artwork on the box is great. I really like my calendar a lot. I think I would change is adding another character in the first few days, because Harry is all alone.

Recommendation: meh 3 / 5 by Koen Van Der Hoeven

Despite the large number of unique parts, minifigures and creative use of pieces I felt that this advent calendar was missing something. Unlike other advent calendars where each door is a unique build the designers got a little lazy and repeated building techniques for multiple doors. The strongest part of this set is definitely the figures as a result.
