SAMPLE CUSTOMER REVIEWS –
1) May the Holiday Force be with you! - I usually buy the Lego City Advent Calendar each year, but this time I decided to try the Star Wars version. As usual there are lots of fun mini-models to assemble and place on the box's play area, including a C3PO holiday minifigure. Whether you buy the City, Friends, or Star Wars version of the advent calendar set, you'll have fun counting down the days in December all the way to Christmas!
This is the 2015 model from Lego---they release new advent calendars every year---but it's simply designated for days 1-24 so you could use any of the sets from year to year. To re-use the calendar, make sure you carefully pop open the perforated windows so you'll be able to re-close them for next time. And be careful opening the box initially: the lid folds down to create a backdrop for setting up all the little models as you build each day.

2) Warning: Spoilers - I'm a Star Wars fan and long time collector of Star Wars Legos, including the yearly Advent Calendar.
I was disappointed enough with this year's set that I'm actually docking one star. 5 of the 24 days aren't Star Wars recognizable in any way. They are merely little stands that hold another day's character's weapons, or something that in some way supports another day's character.
For example:
Day 6 is a little stand that holds a laser gun and bow/arrow (like from a robin hood set or something).
Day 7 is a....shrubbery of some sort that literally does nothing. Really, I'm not kidding.
Day 8 is an Ewok. Awesome.
Day 9 is a catapult.
Day 12 is a glorified gun rack for Day 10's Stormtrooper.
Day 21 is a console that holds a laser gun for Day 17's Hoth Rebel Soldier.
Those five day's toys are sad fillers in my opinion.
The other 19 days are great, including assassin droid IG-88. Another plus that kept me from docking another star is that these are all Original Trilogy toys. I personally appreciate that: nothing from the prequels and no spoilers from the new movie coming out this December.
Here are all the days and their descriptions:
Day 1: Jabba's Sail Barge on a clear stand
Day 2: Sarlaac creature
Day 3: Black Imperial-looking droid (as of this typing I do not recognize it)
Day 4: Jawa (figure)
Day 5: Jawa Sandcrawler
Day 6: Stand holding a laser gun and bow/arrow (assuming goes with Day 8's Ewok)
Day 7: Ummmm...I have no idea what it is. Almost looks like a tree stand for Day 8's Ewok, except the Ewok can't fit on or under it, and this thing literally does nothing.
Day 8: Ewok (figure)
Day 9: Little catapult (assuming goes with Day 8's Ewok)
Day 10: Stormtrooper (figure)
Day 11: Star Destroyer (unsure whether Victory Class or Imperial Class, definitely not Super Class)
Day 12: Gun Rack holding Blaster Rifle, Blaster Pistol, and short Blaster Pistol (assuming goes with Day 10's Stormtrooper)
Day 13: IG-88 (figure)
Day 14: Millenium Falcoln
Day 15: Double Laser Turret, like those guarding the Death Star trench run (cleverly shoots projectiles, comes with extra ammo)
Day 16: A-Wing
Day 17: Hoth Rebel Soldier
Day 18: AT-AT
Day 19: Ion Cannon, like the one guarding the Rebel base on Hoth
Day 20: Imperial Probe Droid on a clear stand
Day 21: Console holding laser gun (asuming goes with Day 17's Hoth Rebel Soldier). This laser gun cleverly fires projectiles and comes with extra ammo
Day 22: R2D2 (figure) with antlers
Day 23: Repulsor Sled (for Day 24...)
Day 24: C3PO (figure) with santa coat, santa beard/mustache, and red bag.
