Christmas Advents 2016 - release dates, price etc

Alidolly · 13 September 2016 at 8:25PM

Thought it might be useful to have a thread with all the best Christmas advent calendars (beauty, toys, alcoholic etc) so people can find the information quickly without having to go through the main Christmas thread?

So perhaps along the lines of;

- Name of company / advent
- Type
- Cost
- Release date
- Link to website

I'll get things rolling

Tsum / Tsum advent
Kids collectables
$39.99
Already out but ONLY in the US :mad:
Costco have no plans to stock and neither do ToysRUs so ATM, only available on EBay for megabucks. :eek:

The variety of advent calendars nowadays is a favourite subject of mine. I love looking at the different choices and I check out some of the blogs that reveal the choices, items inside etc. Funnily enough I looked at a blog yesterday so have info on quite a few.

Last year I had about 5 Advents and M&S beauty one was good. Not sure if they'll do it again this year but one to watch out for. This year I've already preordered the Look Fantastic Calander and will likely try and get the Rituals one when its released. Would have loved the Tsum one for DD so not happy it's not being released in the UK (if anyone does see it though, please let me know!!).

Wilkinsons have a lovely little cosmetic calendar for £5!
Have ordered and picked up one each for me and DD. It looks lovely and the products that are specified on packaging look good for £5.

Prices will fluctuate between now and Christmas I am keeping watch, don't want to leave it too late as they will sell out.

Also just seen the Mattel Megablocks Minions Movie advent on Amazon £13.85 with free delivery over £20. . Might be a good alternative to Lego:
