LEGO Harry Potter Advent Calendar gives much less than similar sets
Poor value
#41 of 43 Harry Potter sets with 200–499 pieces
Six minifigures give this calendar a better figure rate than usual, but it’s poor value otherwise for a 200–499-piece Harry Potter set. It has about half the typical plastic per dollar, only about 55 pieces per $10 against 74, and at $39.99 it costs roughly 56% more than its contents usually would, around $26.
