January 2026 Notable Toys — Christmas

The LEGO Minecraft Advent Calendar 2025 (21280) is a holiday countdown toy for kids ages 7 and up, featuring 24 daily surprises to open. Inside, children will find 8 LEGO Minecraft minifigures, including Alex, Steve, a Creeper, drowned, stray, snow golem, zombie, and a Santa villager, each with accessories and festive details. These buildable characters and models are designed to appeal to Minecraft players, LEGO builders, and fans of video game collectibles. As the days pass, kids can combine the gifts to create a winter village scene and imagine their own Minecraft adventures. The set includes 300 pieces, a fold-out playmat for storytelling, and is compatible with other LEGO Minecraft sets for expanded play. This calendar offers a hands-on way for young gamers to bring their favorite Minecraft moments to life during the festive season.

This Amazon-exclusive bundle includes three casket-shaped blind boxes, each containing a mystery mini plush doll from Disney Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. Inside, you’ll find one of eight possible characters: Jack Skellington, Sally, Zero, The Pumpkin King, Oogie Boogie, Dr. Finkelstein, Santa Jack, or Vampire Teddy. Each 3.5-inch plush is made from super-soft mixed fabrics and features embroidered, printed, or appliquéd details for a whimsical look. Their small size makes them easy to hold or carry along in a pocket or bag. These collectible plush toys work well as part of a fan’s display year-round or as themed party favors for a Nightmare Before Christmas celebration.

The LEGO Santa's Delivery Truck (40746) is a festive building set for kids ages 8 and up, letting them join Santa in bringing holiday magic to life. The truck opens up to reveal hidden Christmas presents inside, and it comes with a mini Christmas tree that fits neatly on the roof. For creative storytelling, the set includes a letter, Santa’s sack, a sticker sheet, and an elf minifigure to drive the truck on North Pole adventures. After play, it makes a charming holiday display piece for a shelf or mantel. With 224 pieces, it’s a thoughtful gift for kids and adults who enjoy building and imaginative play. When assembled with the tree on top, it stands over 5.5 inches high, 5 inches long, and 2.5 inches wide. For extra help during building, the LEGO Builder app offers digital instructions and 3D viewing tools.
