Well, we've just crossed a threshold! Regular Advent calendars run from December 1st to the 24th, meaning yesterday would have been the last day. And yet, here we are on the 25th, with a figure that's still thematically appropriate: Santa Stripe. Based on an advertisement that ran in newspapers back in the day, this new mold sees a Gremlin wearing a red suit and hat. We can tell it's Stripe because a bit of his lingering hair peeks out from beneath the back of the cap. What a fun nod to the traditional "countdown calendar" season! The hands and feet are a glossier green than the head, but having the bright coat separating them makes that less noticable.
