First revealed in the avalanche of press material that followed the LEGO Collection Preview Experience at the end of May, this year’s advent calendar is now on show with a full set of images, thanks to the sleuths at starwarscollector.de, and is pitched as:
“The LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar takes the fans on a galactic journey full of Christmas fun. Behind the 24 doors, LEGO minifigures, spaceships, vehicles, and other LEGO Star Wars universe collectables await discovery. The play mat with its ice and desert planet landscape invites you to come up with your own action scenes or reenact legendary Star Wars adventures.”
With the complete set of information we can now divulge that this 307 piece collection – which includes seven minifigs – is comprised of the following builds:
| 1: | AT-ACT Walker | Zeta-class Cargo Shuttle | Imperial Speeder Bike | festive vaporator | Antoc Merrick minifig | Rebel snowman |
| 2: | Imperial Trooper Transport | gun rack | Deathtrooper minifig | Rathtar | Guavian security soldier minifig | First Order Special Forces TIE Fighter |
| 3: | Naboo N-1 Starfighter | battle droid minifig | General Grievous starfighter | stud shooter canon | Rowan Freemaker minifig | Anakin’s Jedi starfighter |
| 4: | Luke’s landspeeder | Rose Tico minifig | The Arrowhead | Republic Fighter Tank | IG-88 minifig | Cloud City |
One thing we don’t know is the order that the builds will be released in. We’re currently taking bets in our dedicated forum thread on which mini set will make its appearance on Christmas Eve – the favourites are Rebel snowman and festive vaporator.
Expect to see this on retailer shelves and at LEGO.com shelves at the end of September/start of October, and to pay US$39.99/CA$49.99/€29.99.
