Eaglemoss is introducing a fun way for people to count down the days until Christmas with a trio of licensed advent calendars, including a band advent calendar that pays tribute to one of the most iconic bands of the 20th century. Appealing specifically to collectors, the advent calendar inspired by The Beatles includes high-quality collectibles behind its doors, rather than traditional chocolates or sweets. Rather than being themed for Christmas, the countdowns have a lifetime appeal and have the potential to be kept for storing the items inside year-round.
For the holiday season, Eaglemoss is also unveiling other licensed calendars for Doctor Who and Star Trek, each of which appeals to a different fandom.
