Friends Figures:
I included the animals in this because there were so few figures in this year’s Friends set.

Spare Parts:
Every LEGO set typically comes with a few spare parts – those smaller elements that are easily lost – so that if a kid loses them or for some reason the count was wrong when packing the set (since it’s done by weight), they don’t have irate customers complaining that parts are missing. They’ve done this for decades, but with the Advent Calendars it’s especially notable since there are 24 separate models in each, and they tend to include a lot of small parts. The most spare parts in any model was 7 for the Y-Wing Fighter (as noted in my Advent 2014 Awards posting), but many of them included a few. This photo shows all the spare parts from all three calendars: Friends on the left, City in the middle, and Star Wars on the right:
