Amazon Prime Day is here, which means you’ll be snagging incredible deals on just about everything, and that includes holiday gear.
Our favorite find this Prime Day? Funko Pop Advent calendars. Why not get ahead of the curve and do some holiday shopping early while the deals are still hot? We’re talking up to 16% off on interactive calendars themed like Marvel characters, Disney princesses and Nightmare Before Christmas, among others.
Each themed calendar comes with labeled boxes for 24 days, all filled with surprise collectible vinyl figures, kind of like a blind box but bigger and more holiday-esque. These figures will coordinate with the calendar’s theme. No matter which themed calendar you pick, it’ll be a whole lot more exciting than just ticking off boxes on a calendar.
Figures included in every Funko Pop Advent Calendar are made of sturdy vinyl and stand at 0.9 inches. These figures are not for those under the age of three and can be played with or displayed like any other collectible. The figures are extremely detailed, depicting some of your favorite characters, including Stitch, Ironman and Princess Tiana in Christmas attire including little fuzzy hats.

ShopBillboard especially loves the Nightmare Before Christmas offering, given it’s the most on-theme calendar of all four we’ve picked. You’ve got your familiar faces like Jack Skellington, along with timid little Sally and the loveable ghost dog Zero. The Marvel-themed calendar is also a hit, especially with comic book fans. Every hero from Captain America to Spiderman is decked out in proper Christmas attire, ready to fight crime and keep the city safe, snow or shine. If you’re not into opening up these calendars one by one, you can also use the little accompanying figures as stocking stuffers or situated atop a cake.
Funko has created a slew of themed Advent calendars, all available on Amazon. While some of them aren’t currently on sale, they’re still worth a splurge, especially if you have little ones you want to impress this holiday season. These calendars are both interactive and decorative, the best of both worlds.
These figures are classified as Bitty Pops, a subsection of Funko Pop figures that are miniature. Don’t let their size fool you; these figures are extremely expressive and colorful, making any space they’re placed in come alive. Funko sells these miniatures beyond their Advent calendars, sometimes solo, other times in packs with miniature display sets.
