October 21, 2026
LEGO's three big 2026 Advent calendars are already moving fast. On Oct. 21, the LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar 2026 was the No. 1 seller in Amazon's Building Toys Best Sellers list, the Marvel calendar was No. 7, and the Disney Princess calendar was No. 24. On LEGO.com, the Marvel calendar was marked "Sold out" the same day. With 24 doors and Dec. 1 coming up quickly, here is how the three compare on price, pieces, figures and where you can still find each one.
Quick comparison
1. LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar 2026 (75456)
Price: $30.00 on Amazon; $44.99 at LEGO.com. Ages: 6+. Pieces: 293.
This year's Star Wars calendar is built around The Mandalorian. LEGO.com lists The Mandalorian and Moff Gideon minifigures, Grogu and a Pit Droid in holiday outfits, plus Carson Teva, a Jawa and IG-11. Mando and Grogu wear matching sweaters: Grogu's shows Mando, and Mando's shows Grogu. Other doors hide mini-build vehicles such as the Razor Crest, Mando's N-1 Starfighter, a Sandcrawler and an X-wing in festive colors, along with Mudhorn, Bantha, Dewback and Blurrg creature builds.
Pros: The best-selling calendar of the three on Amazon; about a third off the LEGO.com price on Amazon; lots of vehicles for the piece count.
Cons: Built around The Mandalorian, so it suits fans of that series best; the vehicles are micro-scale.

2. LEGO Marvel Advent Calendar 2026 (76340)
Price: $44.99 on Amazon; sold out at LEGO.com ($44.99). Ages: 6+. Pieces: 317.
The Marvel calendar has the most pieces of the three and six minifigures: Spider-Man (on skis), Iron Man, Dr. Doom, Ghost Spider, Captain America and Wolverine. LEGO.com lists builds including Iron Man's present-wrapping robot, a Captain America-themed snowman, a snowball cannon, a Helicarrier, an X-Jet sleigh and a Christmas tree made with green Wolverine claws.
Pros: Six minifigures and the highest piece count; mixes Avengers, Spider-Man and X-Men characters.
Cons: Sold out at LEGO.com as of Oct. 21; at $44.99 it has no Amazon discount, unlike the other two.

3. LEGO Disney Princess Advent Calendar 2026 (43298)
Price: $30.00 on Amazon; $44.99 at LEGO.com. Ages: 5+. Pieces: 290.
The youngest-rated calendar of the three includes Ariel, Cinderella, Moana and Mulan micro-dolls plus Sebastian, Gus, Pua and Mushu. Behind other doors are a piano, a gingerbread castle, a campfire with a marshmallow, a fireplace with a wreath, drums and a spinning dance floor. When the countdown ends, the box turns into a game board with a buildable spinner for up to 8 players.
Pros: Ages 5+; the box doubles as a game board, so it keeps going after Christmas; same Amazon price as the Star Wars calendar.
Cons: Micro-dolls instead of full minifigures; LEGO.com warns it contains small parts and a small ball and is not for children under 3, so watch younger siblings.

Which one should you buy?
For the best value right now, the Star Wars and Disney Princess calendars cost $30.00 each on Amazon, about 10 cents a piece. Marvel fans will pay full price, and with LEGO.com sold out, Amazon is the place to check first. If a child is under 6, the Disney Princess calendar is the only one of the three rated for age 5. All three contain small pieces, so keep the daily builds away from toddlers.
