How does this work?
If you’re new here, I do daily updates on each window of the 2021 Marvel Advent Calendar. I usually post updates in the morning, but sometimes if I get too busy at work, updates will be posted in the evening. I’ll update this post each day, as I don’t really enjoy the practice of creating new posts for each day as it keeps it so much cleaner.
Unlike other sites, I’m actually opening each window as I go, and I’ve been able to be relatively spoiler-free to be as surprised as I can get. All reviews, thoughts and reactions are live as we go along, there are no pre-planned photos or thoughts, unless I happen to be travelling or away from home.
Do note that I’m based in Melbourne, Australia (GMT +11) so we’re ahead of most of the world (except New Zealand) so to avoid spoilers, try to come back to this post after you’ve opened your window and built the daily model especially if you’re located in other timezones like the US or UK.
PS: If you’re planning to buy any LEGO for Christmas and would like to support the blog, please use these affiliate links if you’re shopping on Amazon, Amazon Australia or LEGO.com!
I receive a small commission if you purchase something, which goes a long way in paying for equipment and server costs, and of course LEGO I purchase for content. All my advent calendars are purchased myself!

To follow along, it’s best to bookmark this post to check back each day. You can also find a link to this post from the home page via a link in the top navigation bar. If you’re on mobile, you have to expand the burger menu (the button with the 3 lines) to find it.
Here’s the front of the Marvel Advent Calendar folded out – I really like how clean it looks. There are no spoilers here, and instead, you get an illustration of New York City, from a window from the New Avengers Facility located in New York. The Christmas lights are a nice touch here.
The bottom flap has an Avengers landing pad, with a quinjet in a hanger behind.
As always, the instruction of each day’s builds are printed on the inside of the doors, so be careful and try not to rip them out!
Without wasting any time, let’s get started with the 2021 Marvel Avengers Advent Calendar countdown!
Day 1
Day 1 of the 2021 Marvel Advent Calendar starts off in the strongest way possible – with the most recognisable Avenger, Iron Man aka Tony Stark in a ugly Iron Man-themed Christmas sweater!
I knew this minifigure was coming, as Iron Man was featured prominently all over the box, but totally did no expect such a festive minifigure to kick things off!
The Iron Man minifigure comes with a helmet, as well as a hairpiece, so you can switch between Tony Stark and Iron Man if you want to. For accessories, he comes with some trans-blue power elements for his hands and feet, acting as repulsor enery blasts.
There’s a LOT going on with the minifigure as Tony Stark also has an alternate face, with the heads up display overlayed across his face in blue, with a more serious expression with Tony baring his teeth.
But the highlight of course is the Iron Man-themed ugly Christmas sweater. It has small Iron Man helmets on the front, Christmas trees, as well as a Arc Reactor in the shape of a snowflake which is just perfect.
But we’re not done yet! On the back, we have Tony knitted into the sweater, and another Iron Man pattern. Absolutely perfect.
Here’s a look at Iron Man with his helmet on. He comes with the single-piece helmet, so does not have a flip top helmet, which is slightly disappointing, as it would’ve worked so well with the blue face.
What a sensational start to the LEGO Marvel Advent Calendar for Day 1! Check back in tomorrow to see what Day 2 brings!
Day 2
Soooo… after the exceptionally strong Day 1 with Christmas Sweater Tony Stark, it all comes crashing down to reality in Day 2 – with just a simple bag of Power Blast Elements.
That’s it. Just a bunch of transparent blue bits that you can attach to Iron Man’s hands/feet for more action.
Pretty shocking, and after such a strong start, it does leave me wanting more. I don’t know why these Power Blast elements weren’t just included in the first window – maybe due to size and space?
This just reminds me of the huge chasm of quality and enjoyment between Iron Man 1 and 2.
Hope Day 3 will pick up! Check in tomorrow to see what we get!
Day 3
We finally get an ACTUAL build in Day 3 of the LEGO Marvel Advent Calendar, with this wreath on a stand. There’s actually a trans-blue rod that connects the base to the wreath, but my editing went a little wonky and washed it out, so no, it’s not magic (or Pym particles) that is levitating it
The wreath’s stand has a very industrial look to it, and I especially like the flat silver slopes with grate at the base, which are quite rare as they’re fairly new!
The wreath itself is fairly basic, with a green life ring, and red cherries that serve as holly.
Here are the instructions to Day 3.
Apart from that, it’s fairly basic, but the presence of the clips on each end does suggest that it’s meant to connect up to other builds, which makes me quite excited for the coming days and what else might we connect to the Christmas Wreath!
That’s it for Day 3! Love that we already have 2 festive things from the Advent Calendar – check back in tomorrow to see what Day 4 brings!
Day 4
Oh wow, after the disappointing Day 2, the Marvel Advent Calendar comes roaring back, and attempts to win me back over. Day 4’s window gives us another minifigure and key Avenger – Natasha Romanoff or better known as Black Widow!
Black Widow is a Russian spy, turned Avenger and is played by Scarlett Johansson on the big screen.
This version of Black Widow isn’t the rarest, as it’s appeared in a number of other Marvel Super Heroes sets, most recently in 76153 Avengers Helicarrier and 76166 Avengers Tower Battle, but to infuse the holiday and seasonal spirit – she has converted one of her batons into a stick to roast a marshmallow!
That said, this is still a highly detailed minifigure, and she has an alternate face, as well as detailed back and arm printing. I especially like the presence of Black Widow’s Bite – her bracelets that discharge electricity on both her wrists.
That’s it for Day 4 so far, and I’m glad that Black Widow also has something festive to bring to the table – of which Tony is only happy to help her roast her marshmallow.
Check in tomorrow to see what Day 5 brings!
Day 5
Day 5 is a strange, but very Australian Christmas staple – a Barbecue Grill! Christmas is peak Summer and barbecue season for Australia, so this was a very fitting build for us in the Southern Hemisphere. Thor is Australian so… maybe that’s the connection there?
The barbecue grill is simple yet effective, with grates, a fire extinguisher and some tongs on the side, as well as a large chicken drumstick cooking on the grill.
The fire extinguisher is a great nod to the long-running Easter Egg – if you weren’t aware, I’m pretty sure nearly all LEGO Marvel sets contain a fire extinguisher, and this has been a calling card left by LEGO designers in the first wave of LEGO Marvel sets, which has continued on ever since.
Tony’s power blast elements have had a lot to do, first roasting Black Widow’s marshmallow, and not keeping the grill lit!
That’s it for Day 5 – I like how playful the Marvel Advent Calendar is, and I’m looking forward to what we get in Day 6!
Day 6
I think it’s clear now – the Avengers are massive foodies, and are heavily into partying during the festive season. Day 6 follows on from yesterday’s barbecue grill with a Diner Table, complete with a glass and a brick-built burge
The burger is the best part of the build, and I like how balanced it is, with a patty, cheese and lettuce. Would be perfect if we had some tomatoes in it too.
While the burger and diner table are fun, Day 5 is probably the second weakest day so far – there’s a big picnic/food thing going, but being so close with the Barbecue Grill does reduce the overall novelty of it.
Hopefully we get something that feels a bit more festive, and/or substantial tomorrow in Day 7!
Day 7
It’s Day 7 and it finally hit me… the Avengers are having a potluck, and each Avenger is bringing their own food item to the Christmas party! D’oh.
Anyway, Day 7 gives us one of the most anticipated minifigures of the Advent Calendar, Spider-man, in a yellow jacket!
The minifigure is a nod to Spider-man Homecoming in the Damage Control Warehouse scene, where he’s dressed in his Spidersuit, as well as a yellow blazer. The arms on the minifigure are teal, and instead of his school badge, there is a Spidey logo on it – quite possibly as this minifigure isn’t meant to be a Homecoming licensed set, but more of a cheeky nod.
The back of the jacket is terrific, with a classic Spider-man logo on it, which is brilliant.
Oh, and in case you’re wondering – that’s not fries or pasta in his cup, but churros, which is a nod to this scene in Homecoming, where he reports to Happy that after helping a lost Dominican lady, she bought him a churro, before exclaiming “why did I tell him about the churro”.
That’s it for Day 7 so far! Really love how strong this calendar is so far – 3 Avenger in 7 windows is a pretty good score, and Spidey fans are going to be delighted with this exclusive version of Spider-man.
Check in tomorrow to see what we get for Day 8!
Day 8
Apologies that today’s update is so late – had a really busy day, and only just found the time to take photos and post.
Day 8 of the Marvel Advent Calendar gives another module – this time, a present-wrapping station! There’s a large flat surface for gifts, a pair of scissors, and some red wrapping paper, which expertly makes use of a car door, for great effect.
If you notice the clips on the sides, it’s actually to allow it to connect to the Christmas Wreath holder from Day 3. It’s looking like we’ll be assembling a mini Hall of Armour, but Christmas-themed!
That’s it for Day 8 so far – glad it isn’t food related, and even if the build is a little plain, I can appreciate that it’s one part of a much larger connected build, so I’m excited to see what other modules we get!
Check in tomorrow to see what we get for Day 9!
Day 9
Day 9 of the Marvel Advent Calendar continues the festive streak with some gifts and trinkets – an Arc Reactor snowglobe, and a Spidey-Gift! I had initially thought the gift had an arc reactor on it as well, but on closer inspection, it’s actually a robotic spider – plus the blue and red makes more sense as a spidey gift.
The metallic spider is a great accessory, first seen in Nexo Knights sets.
It’s nice that both Spider-man and Iron Man received some gifts in Day 9… but where is Black Widow’s?
I hope we get one on Day 10!
Day 10
Day 10 of the Marvel Advent Calendar gives us an EDITH Drone, in Spider-Man colours. These will look familiar as they were the Augmented Reality Drones that Mysterio utilised to terrorise people in Spiderman Far From Home.
Don’t mind me, after taking the photo, I realised that one of the binoculars are upside down!
The build is pretty effective, and it eschews the mostly white colour-scheme for a blue and red, Spider-Man colourway – possibly to tie it closer to Far From Home.
I do like the mostly SNOT (studs not on top), smooth design, and it makes great use of curved elements.
Here are the instructions for reference.
Overall, not a bad build, but I would’ve loved a more festive version, but it’s also nice that we’ve not gone beyond food and Christmas material!
Check in tomorrow to see if we get more Far From Home builds or references in Day 10!
Day 11
Wow! Day 11 gives us the big baddie of the Avengers Infinity Saga – the Mad Titan, Thanos himself! It’s great to get a minifigure version of Thanos, who comes with his own Infinity Gauntlet, a Santa Sack, and a lump of coal. Or maybe it’s a secret Infinity Coal Stone.
Let’s call it the Coal Stone, the secret 7th Infinity Stone that grants the wielder the power to ruin Christmas.
So does this make this variant of Thanos… Santa? San-thanos perhaps? He’s got a great way to dole our presents, none of this Nice or Naughty list business, but pure 50-50. Half the kids are getting gifts, and half are getting a lump of coal.
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be
This version of Thanos is helmetless, and isn’t exactly exclusive, as he shares the same face and torso as the Thanos minifig from 76170 Iron Man vs. Thanos and Thanos Mech, so great news if you don’t own those 2 sets.
Didn’t expect to see Thanos so soon, and neither did the Avengers – is Christmas in jeopardy? Check in tomorrow to see what Day 12 brings!
Day 12
Here’s Day 12 of the Marvel Advent Calendar with our very first micro-build – with a Helicarrier – enormour flying command centres that are employed by S.H.I.E.L.D. throughout the Marvel comics and Cinematic Universe.
This micro-version uses upside down dishes for its quad set of turbines which keep these massive ships afloat, and a combination of dark blue and grey elements for the body.
I do like the slightly angled landing runway (in grey), as well as the bridge that’s represented by the trans-light blue and white cheese slopes.
LEGO have created many sets based on Helicarriers, including the recent 76153 Helicarrier as well as the UCS-scale 76042 SHIELD Helicarrier from 2015, so it’s great to see the Marvel Advent Calendar pay homage to it.
I’m currently travelling, so wasn’t able to put together a group shot of all builds so far, but that should return to normal tomorrow!
I really hope we see more micro-builds in this calendar, as they are among my favourite things to get! Check in to see what we get on Day 13! We’re now officially past the halfway mark of the Marvel Advent Calendar!
Day 13
Day 13 gives us some Avengers-themed presents! Very basic gifts, but they’re clearly references to other members of the Avengers – with Captain Marvel for the smallest present, and a large, Hulk-sized gift.
Both gifts are colour-coded according to Captain Marvel’s and Hulk’s primary colours, and I like that Hulk’s looks like a giant foot, and also has a loop, so you can use it as a baubel.
Very basic day, and probably the second-weakest day since Day 2’s power blasts, but at least they’re Avengers-themed!
Hope Day 14 improves, so check back tomorrow to see what we get!
Day 14
We’re back in Tony Stark’s Christmas Workshop Hall of Armour with Day 14’s Dum-E, Tony’s sassy AI-powered robotic arm that helps him around his workshop.
It’s a really delightful build, and I love how posable and playable Dum-E is, with his arm being able to swivel in a variety of angles and positions. At the end of his arm is a festive red stocking to fit the seasonal theme.
Dum-E has some great scenes throughout the Iron Man movies, especially Iron Man 1 which kickstarted the entire MCU, so given this Advent Calendar seems to revolve around Tony Stark hosting a Christmas pot luck in his workshop, Dum-E is a great addition in Day 14.
And that’s it for Day 14 so far, a really memorable window and build, so I’m pumped to see what we’ll get in Day 15. Check in tomorrow to see what else we get!
Day 15
The Avengers Advent Calendar continues to deliver with an exceptionally strong lineup of Marvel’s biggest names, and Day 15 gives us a Captain Marvel minifigue! Her real name is Carol Danvers, and she’s considered one of the strongest Avengers!
With a confident smirk on her face, she also comes with a great, very classic costume, which has a sash running across her waist. She comes with 2 white power blast elements, that you can “flick” forward, by pinching down on the “tails”.
This minifigure isn’t an exclusive as this version of Captain Marvel has appeared once in 76152 Avengers Wrath of Loki, so it’s nice to get this version of her, if you missed out on that set, especially as a 4+ set, it isn’t really a set that adults would buy unless they’re Marvel completionists.
Here’s a look at Captain Marvel’s alternate face print, which has an angry battle-ready face, and back printing as well.
I must say, 5 named character minifigures in 15 days is incredible, that’s one character every 3 days!
I’d be worried if I was Thanos now! Check in tomorrow to see what we get in Day 16!
Day 16
Day 16 gives us another pseudo-minifigure – an Iron Legion Snowman, a seasonably appropriate model as we edge closer to Christmas.
It’s an all-white build, with laser blasters for arms, and also has a small arc-reactor in the middle of the chest.
I was initially tossing up on identifying this a just a simple Iron Man Snowman, given they share the same helmet, and you could imagine the other Avengers building a Snowman to annoy Tony Stark…
But the transparent round brick inside its head sealed it for me that it makes more sense as an Iron Legion Snowman, given the autonomous nature of the Iron Legion, a group of Armours and Droids make so much more sense.
The plain white Iron Man Helmet is a great new part, and is exclusive to this Advent Calendar for now, so it was a really nice surprise to see this pop out.
That’s it for Day 16 – we’re more than two thirds into the Advent Calendar already, so that means Christmas is just around the corner!
Day 17
Day 17 of the Marvel Advent Calendar gives us a staple vehicle of the Marvel Cinematic Universe – a Quinjet! These multi-purpose jets are commonly used by S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers to get around, and have been featured in most Marvel movies.
I really like the unorthodox design of the Quinjet – it has a relatively small frame, and I like the gaps on the inside, as well as the way the curved slopes have been utilised.
The design is based on the most recent LEGO Quinjet (which recently retired) – 76126 Avengers Ultimate Quinjet, down to the orange cockpit and predominantly dark blue colour scheme.
While I think the technique of using handlebars to attach the engines to the body is quite novel and ingenious, it does look a little imbalanced, and I’m not a fan of how thin the handlebars look. That said, it’s a clever way to elevate the engines, and a fun playable feature is when you can tilt them downwards, so it can land or take off vertically.
A neat little build for Day 17, so check back in tomorrow to see what else we get for Day 18!
Day 18
On Day 18, we get yet ANOTHER minifigure – this time, the super pirate spy and former Director of SHIELD, Nick Fury! As an ultra-paranoid spy, Nick Fury is often seen using low-tech gadgets such as pagers, and he comes with an old school walkie-talkie, which has a large red switch on it for some reason.
The minifigure is almost identical to the one from 76153 Avengers Helicarrier and 76184 Spider-Man vs. Mysterio’s Drone Attack , except that he has a grey beanie.
That said, the design is great, with Nick Fury in his trademark black trenchcoat/leather jacket, and I like the SHIELD logo emblazoned on his left breast.
A nice little bonus of the minifigure design that I like is that his eyepatch string extends all the way to the back, which is a neat little touch.
It’s insane that we’re only at Day 18 and we’ve so far received 6 minifigures, with more to come. For a Marvel Super Heroes set, this represents exceptional value, as there would be no way you’ll get so many main characters in one Marvel Super Heroes set!
Check back tomorrow to see who, or what we get in Day 19! We’re almost at the end now, which is crazy, and Christmas is officially less than a week away – hurrah!
Day 19
On Day 19, we get one of the most recognisable Manhattan skyscrapers in the Marvel Cinematic Universe – the Avengers Tower! This is our very first location-based build, and it towers over most of the other builds in terms of how well they’ve translated its shape.
I like the light blue panels, and the printed Avengers logo on the side, but what really screams NPU (nice part usage) is the use of the frying pan for the landing/helipad on the side. It’s a really clever use an unexpected part to re-create a significant feature.
And that’s it for Day 19! I really love any type of micro-builds of buildings, and the Avengers Tower is a great addition to the lineup, and one of the more memorable builds for me.
We only have 5 days remaining in the Advent Calendar, can you believe it!? Check back tomorrow to see what we get on Day 20!
Day 20
Tony’s tinkering in his Christmas workshop continues to bear great results, and we’re greeted by his latest creation in Day 20 – a Clockwork Hulkbuster!
The Hulkbuster Armor is one of Tony’s most well known suits, designed to go toe to toe against the Incredible Hulk, and this is a great micro version which makes great use of a random assortment of parts!
This screams Hulkbuster to me, and not just some random Iron Man armour because of the flat cap used for its head, which does remind me of the Hulkbuster’s flatter dome head.
I love the clockwork handle on the back, which ties the entire build together. Plus, red and gold are pretty great Christmas colours, so this just works splendidly, with Christmas being 5 days away!
Here are the instructions for reference.
That’s it for Day 20 – a great little build to go with the rest of the other MCU and Avengers-themed builds.
There are only 4 windows left to open in the 2021 Marvel Advent Calendar, can you believe it? Come back tomorrow to see what we get on Day 21!
Day 21
The Marvel Advent Calendar continues to deliver, and Day 21’s window gives us a gorgeous mini rendition of Iron Man’s Hall of Armour! It uses 3 dark red nanofigures as stand-ins for different armours, plus you get an extra one as well!
Tony’s Hall of Armour is an iconic element of the Iron Man mythos (and was recently a now retired LEGO set), so this micro-build fits in with the overall theme of a very Tony Stark Christmas.
I do wish it could be connected to the other modules in the build, but I understand that it’s more of a micro-build than it is a minifigure-scale one.
Very happy with Day 21, and can’t wait to see how we end the Advent Calendar with only 3 days remaining!
Day 22
On Day 22 we get what I believe is the final minifigure of the Marvel Advent Calendar, Prince of Asgard and God of Thunder himself, Thor!
He’s dressed for the colder Winter months, with a very attractive red scarf (with a bonus spare!), and comes equipped with his trusty hammer Mjolnir, and a set of white power blasts as well.
Here’s a look at his back print, and alternate face, which has an angry electrified face as he channels his Thunder God powers.
There isn’t anything particularly special about this version of as it’s a pretty common variant of Thor, but it’s nice enough to round out the cast of Avengers and minifigures in the calendar.
As the final minifigure in the calendar, I would’ve LOVED to end on a more festive note – Thor dressed as Santa would be great, or an exclusive seasonal torso would be nice, but hey, with so many high quality minifigures in the calendar, it’s hard to complain at this point.
Only 2 days left, so check in to see how we end the Marvel Advent Calendar!
Day 23
Can you believe it, that we’re nearing the end of our LEGO Marvel Advent Calendar?
Day 23 gives us a most peculiar looking Christmas Tree! It’s quite short, and has these golden spikes/rods protruding from the leaves – it looks quite empty, almost like you need to decorate it with brightly coloured baubels…
At this stage, it should be no surprise that will greet us on Day 24, the final window of the Marvel Advent Calendar… but until then..
You can do what I did, and just use some of the Avengers as Christmas baubels!
It’s Day 24 tomorrow, where we’ll open the final window of the excellent Marvel Advent Calendar! Check back in one last time to see what we get, and for a brief summary and review of the entire calendar, as we recap what has been an incredibly fun December!
Day 24
On the 24th and final day of the Marvel Advent Calendar, we get the greatest gift Thanos could ever wish for – an Infinity Gauntlet with a complete collection of Infinity Gems!
With the complete gauntlet, you now have virtually unlimited powers, and can snap away half of all life in the universe if you wish!
This was a massive surprise, that LEGO would give us all 6 infinity stones, in their respective sprues so you get 4x of each! These were previously quite rare as the Infinity Stones were scattered across Infinity War sets, which were quite pricey to collect.
As a Christmas gift, this is excellent as you now have a whole, fully powered gauntlet for a really affordable pricepoint.
In addition to the gauntlet, you can use the Infinity Stones on Day 23’s Christmas Tree, decorating it with the colourful and powerful cosmic gems. The Infinity Gauntlet also makes a great Tree Topper!
And that’s it for the first ever Marvel Advent Calendar – despite this being a large Iron Man-themed calendar, I’m sure Thanos is absolutely delighted with the final gift!
Final Thoughts
For the first ever LEGO Marvel Advent Calendar, this has been a resounding success, and sets an extremely high bar for any forthcoming Marvel Advent Calendars.
It’s hands down the best Advent Calendar this year by a mile, and is jam-packed with value.
Getting SEVEN main Marvel characters in a US$39.99 set is just bonkers, and worth the price of admission alone. While most of the minifigures are repurposed from previous sets, with Iron Man and his ugly Christmas jumper being the only seasonal exclusive, many people, especially those that don’t have massive LEGO Marvel collections will be delighted to have nearly all the Avengers.
Despite being styled an Avengers-themed Advent Calendar, this is really all about Iron Man, with a great mix of micro builds, and also modules and toys from his workshop.
So yeah, this was an exceptional LEGO Advent Calendar, and I’m very, very happy with just how strong nearly every day has been (except for Day 2!).
The mix of characters has also been great, although it’s sorely missing the first Avengers – Captain America! I do wish we had more seasonal and exclusive variants like Iron Man, but hopefully we’ll get more Christmas-themed Avengers in next year’s calendar, if they decide to continue it.
Thank you so much to everyone who has been following the Marvel Advent Calendar countdown every day, and it’s been a blast to welcome new and old names to yet another great Advent Calendar season countdown!
I haven’t been able to respond to every single comment, but I’ve read every single one, and it’s been so much fun counting down the days to Christmas! Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas, and New Year’s!
I hope Santa has plenty of LEGO for you and your family under the Christmas tree! If you’re new to the blog, feel free to subscribe if you want to get the latest LEGO news and LEGO Reviews straight in your inbox.
