"The 2019 Harry Potter Advent Calendar earns a BrickScore of 73.9 as a thematically strong but value-challenged seasonal set. Its exclusive minifigures (Tonks, Neville, Sirius, Cedric) and film-organized structure set it apart from generic LEGO calendars, but the $39.99 ask for 305 pieces and fragile packaging keep it from rising higher."
The 2019 LEGO Harry Potter Advent Calendar (75964) lands a BrickScore of 73.9 (Recommended) driven by an appealing minifigure lineup and thematic daily build experience, balanced against honest criticism of poor price-to-part value and flimsy packaging. Tiago Catarino praised it as organized around all eight Harry Potter films with color-coded bases, calling it superior to generic Christmas-themed calendars. Owner ratings diverge sharply by retailer: Amazon buyers rate it 4.8/5 across 3,600 reviews, while LEGO.com buyers give just 3.48/5 across 20, with value-for-money at 3.58/5 and only 78% recommending.
Where they split: Owner ratings split significantly by channel: Amazon buyers rate it 4.8/5 (3,600 reviews) versus LEGO.com buyers at 3.48/5 (20 reviews). The LEGO.com cohort skews toward more experienced builders who weigh value critically, while the broader Amazon audience includes more casual HP fans for whom the holiday format and theme outweigh the cost concerns.

Harry Potter fans enjoy the minifigure selection and Hogwarts-themed builds, but a persistent packing error sending wrong characters (often two Hermiones or two Rons instead of Harry) and flimsy box packaging have frustrated a notable share of buyers.
