Do you hear that, readers? That’s the sound of Christmas getting ever closer! And what better way to count down to the big day than with day 20 of TBB’s LEGO advent calendar roundup? That’s just what we’re doing, so why not join us as we open up the City, Friends, Star Wars, Harry Potter, and Marvel calendars on offer this year?

As ever, our intrepid TBB team is on hand with witty comments, insightful observations, and bad jokes for each day’s builds. And of course, you can add your own thoughts in the comments section each day! So without further ado, let’s crack open the build for day 20…

Double food yesterday, double animals today! City and Friends are in sync once again. For the former, we have a dog guarding some milk and cookies for Santa; for the latter, we have a rabbit.

The Senate himself, AKA Emperor Palpatine, dons a fetching Death Star Christmas sweater for day 20. The Harry Potter build is a simple table and chair combo. Marvel has a tiny train and Captain America nano-fig. I’m pretty sure this depicts a scene from Winter Soldier.

Daniel: Milk and cookies for Santa’s chihuahua.

And another Star Wars character in a holiday sweater.

Bart: Love the reference to the best scene from the Antman movie.

Ben: That micro build train is a little delight. The Palpatine jumper is a great little design.

Lino: Palpatine’s finally getting into the Christmas spirit.

Kyle: Quick calendar comparison: the City calendar gives us a table, dog dish, and dog. The Friends calendar gives us a bunny of roughly the same size on a 2×2 jumper. Just really trying to drive the point home here.

Star Wars has established itself as a frontrunner for our team’s favourite calendar, but I don’t think it takes much to guess what our least favourite will be…
