LEGO City 60024 Advent Calendar 2013 Review

Christmas is over! Back to work, and now I finally wrote the review of the LEGO City Advent Calendar 2013. I am not a fan of Advent Calendars but the set has a decent amount of miniatures and stuff for its price.

Model Box

This set comes in a special box that serves the purpouse of an advent calendar. It has a side that unfolds and can be used as a mat to play and it reveals 24 buckets numbered that contain a surprise for each day.

The plastic bucket is awesome for storing little parts and sorted minifigs after you finish the advent calendar.

Manuals

No. No manuals. Just look at the illustrations and do your best.

Complete model

I built this with my two sons, so I have no photo of the whole set because as soon as I finished building one part they took it apart. #badboys

Overview

So here is my rating.

Miguel says 6.5/10
Building experience
Value for money
Playability
Parts

Pros

– Lots of parts
– Many minifigs

Cons

– Lack of challenge

Does LEGO 60024 worth the money?

Well, I am not sure. I am definitively in love with minifigs so for me it was a clear buying option, but if you are not in minifigs mood it isn’t certainly the best set to get.
Amazon may have it still on stock.
