City Advent Calendar 2019

The 2019 LEGO City Advent Calendar follows the usual format: 24 numbered doors, each hiding a small build, vehicle, accessory or minifigure that adds up to a winter city scene by the end of December. With 234 pieces spread across those 24 days, each individual build is necessarily small, but the set as a whole reads as several connected mini-scenes rather than one large model.

Description

Two dozen linked micro-sets

Because each door is its own tiny build, the set behaves more like two dozen linked micro-sets than a single model, and that shapes how it plays: rather than one long build session, it's meant to be opened and assembled a little at a time. That format also means the pieces skew toward smaller, specific elements rather than large plates, which is worth knowing if a single big build is what's expected instead. That piecemeal structure is part of the appeal for an advent calendar specifically, since the format rewards a set built for many short sessions rather than one long build.

An unusually wide part variety

133 of the 234 pieces are distinct elements, an unusually high ratio that comes directly from the calendar format: each door contributes its own small, different build rather than repeating the same bricks across a larger structure. That variety is part of the appeal day to day, since almost every door introduces at least one piece type not seen behind the previous ones. For anyone who enjoys spotting an unusual piece, that steady stream of new elements is arguably more interesting than a single large build using the same few bricks repeatedly.

A consistent winter colour scheme

White dominates as snow across roofs, streets and trees, light bluish grey extends the wintry ground and detailing, reddish brown supplies brick-toned building facades, and black rounds out windows, roads and smaller details. Together they give the many separate micro-builds a consistent seasonal look despite their different shapes. The parts list on this page breaks down exactly how much of each colour is included. That consistency matters more here than in a typical set, since 24 separately designed micro-builds could otherwise look disconnected from each other.

Seven minifigures across the doors

Seven minifigures are included, more than most City sets of this size, spread across the calendar's doors alongside the vehicles and accessories. That makes it one of the more efficient ways to build up a small, varied City minifigure collection, and the full parts list on this page is useful afterwards for keeping track of every small element or reusing pieces in other winter-themed scenes. Once December ends, the figures work just as well mixed into a wider City collection, since none of them are tied to a single specific door.
