LEGO Star Wars 2011 Advent Calendar Day Round Up

December 26, 2011 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

What can I say about the LEGO Star Wars 2011 Advent Calendar! It is a great set for the price and for the very first Star Wars Advent Calendar, you certainly get what you paid for. You get 9 minifigs, 11 different vehicles, as well as 4 objects. I really like the minifigs especially Santa Yoda and R2-Q5, which only came in the LEGO Death Star set. Most of the vehicle builds are pretty good replicas of their bigger brothers. You also get plenty of extra pieces for other builds.

For my dislikes, there were some builds that just weren’t good such as the Tie Fighter. The Mouse Droid was also a “meh” build considering you can make it using extra pieces you may have.

Overall, I’d say buy this set even though Christmas is over. You might find it on sale in the upcoming weeks as stores try to get rid of their inventory. Whether you’re a collector or someone who likes LEGO in general, this set is a must buy. The value on this set will no doubt go up as time goes by and the Santa Yoda minifig will certainly hold it’s value on it’s own. As for next years advent calendar, there are pictures circulating around the web with Darth Maul as the main focus of the set. We’ll see if that stays true or not the coming months.

LEGO Star Wars 2011 Advent Calendar Day 24 – Santa Yoda

December 25, 2011 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

The final day of the LEGO Star Wars 2011 Advent Calendar is here!! It’s no surprise what the final build is considering he’s on the box. Of course, it’s Santa Yoda. The head on this minifig is freaking awesome. He comes with his sack and presents as well as his walking stick. What’s not to love about this minifig? It’s Yoda in a Santa suit!

LEGO Star Wars 2011 Advent Calendar Day 23 – Christmas Tree

December 24, 2011 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Two days left in the LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar!! On the second to last day, we get the Christmas Tree. It uses 18 pieces to create and looks okay. The tree includes different colored studs as ornaments and a star wand as the tree topper. Just one more day for the main attraction of the set.

LEGO Star Wars 2011 Advent Calendar Day 22 – A-wing

December 22, 2011 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

For Day 22 of the LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar, we get the A-wing. This mini-build consists only 9 pieces and it’s a cool looking replica. The only flaw I see in the A-wing is that the two back wings fall off easily. Other than that, I like it very much.
