LEGO Harry Potter Advent Calendar gives a little less than similar sets
Below average
#35 of 43 Harry Potter sets with 200–499 pieces
This advent calendar’s strength is its minifigures: six for $39.99 beats the usual rate by a good margin. But it has about half the plastic per dollar of a typical 200–499-piece Harry Potter set and fewer pieces per $10 (64 against 74), and it costs roughly 51% more than its contents usually would, around $27.
