LEGO Star Wars delivers yet another festive box of mini-builds in the form of 75340 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar – what’s not to like?





LEGO advent calendars are a well-established staple of the LEGO calendar nowadays, capping off every busy building year with a collection of fun, little LEGO creations to put together day by day.


75340 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar is the latest in a long line of such creations from a brick-built galaxy far, far away, and is packed with all the same charm as any of its predecessors. What’s not to like about a LEGO Star Wars advent calendar?Released September 1, 2022, if past years are anything to go by, 75340 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar will hang around for about a month on shelves in toy stores and supermarkets before overnight selling out and never being restocked, before the late-rising LEGO fans then start a desperate hunt for any that may still be out there in the wild. Don’t miss out, the last few years these calendars have well and truly disappeared before you would otherwise expect.





Reviewing any of the LEGO advent calendars is a bit of a pointless exercise, for how effectively over the past decade these day-by-day mini-build and minifigure collections have created their own little cute, seasonal market. Counting down to Christmas is all the more fun if there’s a little piece of LEGO to build each day along the way, right?


Nobody says no to that, regardless of the depth of build or how accurate it may be to anything in particular. Indeed, some LEGO Star Wars advent calendars of past have added an element of guesswork at times, for the artistic licence taken in scaling way, way down something recognisable from a galaxy far, far away, into something that a six-year-old can build in 10 or fewer pieces.


These aren’t LEGO sets, per se, and they don’t hold true to the same standards LEGO Star Wars fans apply to pretty much every other release in the theme. They are fun, little, engaging builds to keep you occupied in bite-size chunks, or until one of the minifigures comes along.
