LEGO set 21280, Minecraft Advent Calendar 2025, is listed under the Seasonal theme, in the Advent branch. Released in 2025, it contains 300 pieces and presents a Minecraft Advent calendar with characters, mobs and small builds drawn from the game setting.

Set 21280 brings the Advent calendar format to the Minecraft licence. Within Seasonal, it is not centred on one large holiday display, but on a sequence of small surprises that use the block based visual language and familiar characters of the game.

The miniature builds sit alongside this figure selection as part of the Advent format.

It is most relevant to Minecraft collectors, seasonal display builders and users who enjoy small self contained builds for play. Among Seasonal Advent sets, its main distinction is the Minecraft subject matter and the combination of standard, micro and festive character variants.
