Advent Calendar: Marvel Holiday - Groot - 24 Days of Surprise

My son was so excited for this! Only complaint is there were quite a few duplicates.

Great advent calendar and so far all days have been super cute! My nephew loves it!

Good quality but lots of repeats & that isn’t fine for my kids to have multiples.

I bought this alongside the Funko Pop Star Wars Christmas calendar so a friend and I would have a fun holiday tradition to open every day leading up to Christmas. And what a disappointment it was. At the end of 24 days I was left with: 17 unique sculpts 13 gingerbread figures (low quality sculpts, difficulty standing, multiple dupes) 11 non-gingerbread figures (including 2 pairs of duplicates) 6 duplicates total (either exact duplicates, or exact sculpts with a cheap variation - glitter, accessory opacity or glow in the dark), meaning 12 figures total. 4 characters are featured 3 times each, meaning 12 figures are the same 4 characters. Only 2 characters are only represented once, meaning 22 figures are of the same 9 characters. Multiple duplicates happen within a week of each other, and as the days wore on, it became a joke amongst my friends as to “which duplicate am I getting today?” If I were a parent having bought this for a Marvel-loving child I would be furious, especially considering how many different variations of these mini Funko Pop Marvel characters exist in the wild, and yet are not represented here. As an adult who should know better than to complaint about toys, I am simply disappointed at the misleading packaging that suggests 24 different figures (and only features ONE gingerbread character on the box - in no way revealing that the MAJORITY of characters included are the lower-quality gingerbread), and the poor organization of the box. There are about 5 figures I would consider “quality” - the rest are simply not worth keeping. I am sure some boxes have better variety, but seeing these reviews I can tell that my box variety was more common than it should be. Funko/Pop/Marvel - do better. Buyer beware.

I would not recommend for the price. The characters that are in it are cool however they give multiple of each. There are so may character options, even something as small as an infinity stone in one would be neat. It was really disappointing for my son to be so excited to open his days and then get multiple of the same character over and over again. So far we have 3 groots, 2 captain americas, and 2 captain marvels. We still have 11 days left. I really hope there are no more duplicates.

An annual family tradition

I got this on sale for under $30 (half off the list price), which is less than $1.25 per mini pop. So it's totally worth it even though there are some duplicates. The pop designs are all very cute, as we can expect from Funko. So many gingerbreads - The gingerbread characters are all right, but there were quite a few of them -- 13 I think, out of 24, so more than half. A few would be fine, but at that count I thought that style was overdone. I would've preferred more non-gingerbread Christmas-themed pops. Many repeat characters - There are just 11 unique characters of the 24 pops. There are so many Marvel characters, so getting 3 Thors, 3 baby Groots, 3 Captain Americas (Steve Rogers), 3 Spider-Mans, 2 Thanoses, 2 Captain Marvels, 2 Scarlet Witches, 2 Iron Mans, 2 Hulks... that's a lot of the same characters! (The only unique characters are Black Panther and Rocket.) Instead of the same characters twice (or thrice), I would have loved to see some other characters like Loki, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Bucky, Dr. Strange, Moon Knight, She-Hulk, Ms. Marvel, Falcon or Captain America (Sam Wilson), etc. The duplicates are frustrating. Yes, the duplicates technically have some minor differences so they're not exactly identical; one snowman Captain America has glitter and the other doesn't, for instance. But I'd still call them duplicates. Again, there are so many awesome Marvel characters, I would've liked to see some other ones rather than duplicates. I'm glad I didn't pay full price for this. Unfortunately, Funko hasn't figured out all the figure balance issues. The baby Groot in the flower pot can't stay up on its own, for instance, so I'll need to put something underneath it for balance.

My granddaughter enjoys calling her friend in Switzerland every day and they open the door together. She is 23 and a Marvel lover.♥️

Les couleurs et paillettes changent mais c’est les mêmes personnages en double.

This is brilliant for any marvel fan, son loves it!

Calendario molto bello, purtroppo qualche semi-doppione ( Thor e Wanda), sono molto simili ma non identici. Avrei preferito qualche personaggio in più rispetto a personaggi ripetuti in pose diverse. Però nel complesso sono molto belli, un acquisto che rifarei...

Haben dieses Jahr mal etwas mehr ausgegeben, weil unser Sohn marvel und funkos liebt und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Die Figuren super süß, alle im x-mas Look. Leider wiederholen sich die Figuren (ein mal normal und dann noch mal in Glitzer) da hätten wor uns eher 24 verschiedene Figuren gewünscht aber an sich sind wir sehr zufrieden

Ordered on 26 Nov and received on 5 Dec. Well packed in 2 carton boxes. Some Funko looks duplicate but are actually different versions such as with glitter and glow in dark. Cute xmas details. Worth getting when its on sale.
