Collectible advent calendars are the figure and model boxes, 26 new for 2026, 54 across the seasons: Pokémon's nineteen two-inch Battle Figures in a finish sold nowhere else, every one named before you buy; Funko's Pocket Pop Harry Potter and Disney boxes, twenty-four vinyl figures at 49.99 USD with four of them named; Schleich's Harry Potter miniatures with three exclusives; the Porsche 911 Turbo assembled a piece a day with an engine-sound module; Cinereplicas' Marauder's Map; National Geographic's gemstone and science kits; and Winmau's and Red Dragon's darts calendars for the player. What separates them is what the maker will say (Pokémon and Porsche print everything, Funko and Schleich keep most of the line-up secret) and the score on each page follows that, because a collector wants to know which figure is behind door nine before paying 50 for the box.

One for each way of asking. Every row clears the same bar — rated 4 out of 5 or better by an editor, or where none has scored it, an editors’ pick or contents worth more than the box — and nothing older than last season.

- Step 01
Decide what you will spend first
Set the number before you browse, because it decides the shelf more than anything else here. Of the 40 priced in dollars, 21 come in under $50, 17 sit between $50 and $200 and 2 cost more than that — the range runs $17 to $750, and half are above $50. Compare the price bands
- Step 02
Match the doors to the days
45 of the 54 here have 24 doors — a 24-door box opens one a day from 1 December to Christmas Eve. The others run 12 and 25, and the shorter ones start partway through the month: a 12-door box opens on 13 December. For someone who will not open one every day, or a gift that will arrive late, fewer doors is the better fit, not the lesser calendar. Every start date
- Step 03
Know which season you are buying
26 of the 54 here are 2026 editions, and 17 are last season's — still sold, often discounted, and with the contents already on the page. The 11 older than that are listed for the record, not for buying. A brand's page keeps every edition together, so check whether the box you are looking at is this year's before you compare prices.
- Step 04
Start from the ones we have opened
15 of the 54 here carry an editors' pick — the chip above the grid narrows the shelf to those — and 33 have a written score. Those are the boxes somebody on this site has actually judged. The rest are listed because they exist, not because we are recommending them; being on this page is not a verdict. How we review

24 doorsThe collectibles shelf, by the numbers
How each one is countedEvery figure is computed from the records at build time and says how many it is drawn from. Door price is the price on the box over its doors; the value multiple is what the contents come to at retail over that price; full size is the retailer’s own marking. Dollar figures use rough rates and are for ranking only. Where a record cannot support a figure, it is left out rather than guessed.The definitions, one by one →26 collectibles calendars for 2026, a median of $2.08 a door, 12 brands we had never listed before, 1 sold out.
