Title says it all. Too bad it doesn't qualify for BOGO right now... Link

Thank you! I ordered 2.

My TRU B&M must still have 100 of these, still trying to sell them for thirty-something dollars. I can't imagine how many were produced, since I expected this set to disappear quickly and the City Police set to linger, but the opposite happened.

It's too bad LEGO prominently put '2011' on the box, because there is no reason these can't be used any year since the numbers are randomly placed and not following a calendar layout. That year might scare people who aren't familiar off, but these will be great for kids in 2012, 2013, or even 2020.

Very tempting. The Santa Yoda seems to sell on BL for about $13. You could probably buy a bunch of these and sell the figs and make most or all of the money back. Too bad I don't have the time for all that.

Just got back from my local b&m store(Rochester, NY). They have the calendar marked @ $19.98. Thanks for the heads up.

The average sell price of Santa Yoda is less than $9 if you look at recent sales history on Bricklink. It doesn't sell through that well on eBay either. However if you part out each day, you'll likely make a profit.

I'm more of a buyer and bought 10 of the snowspeeders @ $1.16 each and for $11.60 + shipping I got what I really wanted. It's up to the seller now to deal with the rest of the sets.

The TRU in Jersey City had three of the Advent Calendars for $19.99.
