It wasn’t all that long ago that advent calendars were little more than boxes of chocolate, a small sweet treat behind each door. They then evolved to include more food and drink options when adult versions crammed with cheese and beer started to become popular, and now you may get an advent calendar with pretty much anything inside. Not just food and drink, butFunko Popsand evenSquishmallows. OrLegoscenes that you build throughout December, some of which areavailable for less right now at Walmart.

Even better, the Lego advent calendars currently available for less at Walmart are officially licensedMarvelandStar Warsones. With Minifigures or miniature sets behind each door, Lego advent calendars are naturally a little more expensive than chocolate ones. Usually $45, both the Marvel and Star Wars options are available for less than half price heading into Black Friday.

Lego Marvel’s Avengers Advent Calendar

The Lego Marvel’s Avengers advent calendar has something waiting for you behind each of its 24 doors. Including Minifigures and accessories, you’re able to use what you find to recreate scenes from the movies or make an all-new superhero adventure of your very own.

24 doors on each, every one with either a Marvel or Star Wars surprise waiting for you every day in December. Not only reduced because it’s almost Black Friday, but probably because it’s almost time to start opening those doors. If you’ve been holding out until it’s almost December with the hope some of these calendars would be subject to price cuts, well done, you were right. I wouldn’t wait for them to be reduced further, though. Unlike advent calendars with chocolates inside, there’s nothing stopping Walmart from putting any leftover stock to one side and selling it for full price again next year.
