The 12-day collector’s calendar brings together two much-loved British favourites, with exclusive enamel pin badges behind every door.
Wallace & Gromit fans can get ready to count down to Christmas in true West Country style, as independent family business Pawprint Family launches a brand-new, fully licensed Wallace & Gromit pin badge advent calendar.
The first of its kind, the 12-day advent calendar features an exclusive collectible pin badge behind each door, showcasing the much-loved duo in a range of festive designs. Every badge has been designed and created exclusively for the calendar and won’t be available to buy anywhere else.
And the surprises don't stop there. Each calendar comes complete with a ‘bonus gift’ - a Wallace & Gromit-branded lanyard, giving fans somewhere to display their collection long after Christmas.
Designed and developed entirely in-house at Pawprint Family's Staffordshire headquarters, the calendar brings together the company's expertise in collectible badges with the much-loved world of Wallace & Gromit.
With a strictly limited production run of 1,250 and every calendar individually numbered, the product is designed with collectors and long-time fans in mind. The calendar also makes a standout gift for Wallace & Gromit fans, offering a unique alternative to traditional advent calendars for Christmas gifting.
To celebrate the launch, Pawprint Family will be giving fans the chance to own a piece of Wallace & Gromit history, with calendar number 0001 being auctioned on eBay in support of The Grand Appeal, the Bristol Children’s Hospital Charity. A percentage of the final sale price will be donated to the charity, with the remaining proceeds going to Pawprint Family, of which a further 1% will be donated to the Pawprint Trust. One lucky fan will take home the very first calendar produced – making it a truly unique collector’s item.
The Wallace & Gromit Pin Badge Advent Calendar will be available from selected retailers, including Truffle Shuffle and The Gromit Unleashed Shop, ahead of Christmas 2026.
Charlotte Russell, Director & Trustee at Pawprint Family said: “Wallace & Gromit are a truly iconic part of British culture, so we're incredibly excited (and full of cheesy grins) about expanding our range of collectible pin badges with this advent calendar! We wanted to create something that would feel genuinely special for fans, and the limited-edition, individually numbered calendars make this a really exciting collector's piece.”
