Christmas time again! That means…LOL Advent calendars! Past years have brought us LOL toys that were Advent calendars, but not specifically named as such. Remember Winter Disco #OOTD? What about the first LOL Advent calendar? This year, you don’t have to worry. This year’s calendar is called LOL Advent Calendar 2020. No mistakes about what it is and what it’s for.
The LOL Advent Calendar 2020 is a MUST BUY for most little LOL doll lovers. However, this toy may not be for everyone. Read this parents’ guide to find out why. Check the price of this LOL Advent Calendar 2020 on Amazon.
1. It’s an advent calendar…or not.
Lots of us grew up with cardboard advent calendars. You countdown the days until Christmas by opening one flap every day. If you’re lucky, your mom bought the one with awesome chocolate and you ate a chocolate a day until Christmas.
This is what this toy is…it’s an advent calendar for LOL doll lovers.
Or is it?
If you and your little ones celebrate holidays other than Christmas, want more LOL doll outfits, or want to countdown something else during another time of year (birthdays, end of school, etc.), use the LOL Advent Calendar 2020.
But how?
As you can see from the box, LOL Advent Calendar 2020 isn’t Christmas themed. Yes, it’s an advent calendar because it’s constructed exactly like an advent calendar. However, this advent calendar is SO much more versatile because you can use it for anything.
2. What does #OOTD stand for?
You may see #OOTD mentioned on some listings. OOTD stands for Outfit of the Day. That’s one of the best things about this toy (and what makes it the perfect standalone birthday, good grades, Hanukkah, etc. gift)–you get more outfits without more dolls.
But there’s more…
3. There’s a tots doll inside!
What LOL Surprise gift would be complete without a big sister doll inside?
LOL Advent Calendar 2020 introduces us to Tricksta. She’s the cutie on the front of the box and comes with lots of two-toned outfits and accessories that can be mixed and matched with other LOL dolls.
4. This toy may not be appropriate for everyone.
This calendar was obviously designed BEFORE the recent controversy about LOL dolls. Therefore, this toy may not be appropriate for everyone.
Tricksta is based on Harley Quinn from DC Comics. She’s wearing almost exactly the same outfit as the one in Suicide Squad.
Why Harley Quinn?
We’re guessing that it’s because Harley Quinn has become more popular as a costume and “statement” with older girls. Ever since the Suicide Squad movie in 2016 and the Birds of Prey movie in 2020, this character has been gaining in popularity.
If you’re not a fan of fishnet stockings and hot pants, you probably want to skip this toy.
5. There aren’t 25 outfits.
We love the theme and that there’s a doll, but before you get excited about the #OOTD Outfit of the Day name…
There are not 25 complete outfits inside LOL Advent Calendar 2020. There aren’t 25 dolls either.
Each surprise is a PART of an outfit, not the whole thing.
6. The packaging is awesome.
LOL packaging is getting better and more useful! The box opens into a 3 tiered stage that your little one can use again and again if she’s careful.
Inside, you’ll find the environmentally friendly tissue paper. Save it and have your little one use it for crafts!
7. LOL Advent Calendar 2020 has 26 surprises.
So if there aren’t 25 complete outfits inside, what are the surprises?
We won’t give you a complete list that spoils the surprises for everyone, but here’s a summary of the contents:
- A collector sticker
- 1 tots (big sister) doll
- Jacket
- A bottle
- 5 dresses/one-piece outfits
- 4 pairs of shoes
- 1 purse
- 3 tops (shirts)
- 4 bottoms (pants or skirts)
- 1 swimsuit
- 4 accessories (pop tart, glasses, necklace, 2 bracelets)
There’s everything a cutie needs for the complete Harley Quinn wardrobe. And before you ask…

8. All LOL advent calendars have the same contents.
Just like LOL Big Surprise, LOL Pearl Surprise, and LOL Bigger Surprise, all the contents of this advent calendar have the exact same contents.
If you buy 2, the entire thing will be a duplicate. The doll, outfits, and stickers are all the same in each box.
9. LOL Advent Calendar 2020 is the best way to get more accessories.
One of the biggest problems with the LOL Surprise universe up until this point has been…
How to get more outfits?!?
If your little one is styling her LOLs or preparing for a “fashion show,” she needs more pieces to work with. Fashion Crush was introduced to help us out…but we weren’t super impressed.
Thank goodness for LOL Advent Calendar 2020. Buying this will give your little one at least 6 full outfits to mix and match. She’ll even get more other accessories so there are lots of possible combinations.
We hope we’ve proven why this toy is a MUST BUY for most little LOL doll lovers.
