Does anyone have information about this? Are the 24 figures predetermined, or are they a random assortment? Any exclusives? I'm going to get one because this is as cool an idea for an advent calendar as I have ever seen. And, it is much more affordable and a better value for what you get than, say, a Lego advent calendar.

Please post if you know anything about the figures inside.

I can't find any info on it. Description says, "with brand new series 2 characters," but I would want to know for sure they are non-checklist figures before getting one. My kids have a ton of series 2 and packs are still easy to find at cheap clearance prices now that series 3 is out.

Yes, series 2 8 packs can be found for $7 at all Targets right now. Unfortunately I believe all the Walgreens clearance series 2 bigger packs are gone. So, Target is the best deal right now.

I have found nothing to indicate there are any exclusives in the advent calendar. However, for the unique packaging and 24 figures all at once, if this can be found for anywhere close to $1 per figure ($24 for the calendar), I think that would be a decent price to pay.

I just hope it's not all commons, preselected figures, or something like that.

Thanks for the heads up, this seems to be a European product and Amazon UK have it for Â£15 delivered. Might be worth a punt. I'd be surprised if it included anything exclusive though. And if it's anything like the 5-packs, 12-packs etc, then it'll be a pre-determined assortment.

Yes, a German company, apparently. They are also for sale on Amazon US for approximately the same price (a tad more).

If any Europeans buy one, please post what you find when/if you open it.
