LEGO Friends Advent Calendar gives much less than similar sets
Poor value
#154 of 159 Friends sets with 200–499 pieces
Poor value: this advent calendar has less than half the plastic per dollar of a typical set and about 55 pieces per $10 against a usual 78, and at $29.99 it costs roughly 83% more than similar contents (around $16). A 3.2 rating from 40 builders doesn’t help.
