NASCAR's official store has confirmed the 2026 Action Racing 12 Days of Die-Cast Advent Calendar, a seasonal collectible packed with twelve 1:64-scale vehicles spanning the NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series, and NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series. Priced at $142.99, the calendar is available now through the NASCAR store and other retailers, with several designs made exclusively for this release.
NASCAR's own product listing confirms the following:
Several of the twelve designs are confirmed exclusive to this Advent Calendar, meaning they aren't available through standalone diecast releases elsewhere in the Action Racing lineup.
NASCAR's listing specifically calls out a highly collectible Liquid Color special-finish die-cast among the twelve vehicles, giving the set genuine chase appeal beyond the novelty of a daily-reveal format. Liquid Color finishes have become a recognizable premium treatment across diecast collecting more broadly, and including one in a seasonal advent format gives collectors an added incentive to track down this specific release rather than treating it as a purely novelty holiday item.
Advent calendar diecast sets have increasingly become a way for manufacturers to release genuinely new paint schemes and driver combinations that wouldn't otherwise get a standalone release, rather than simply repackaging existing inventory. With several of this calendar's twelve designs confirmed as exclusive to the set, completionist NASCAR diecast collectors have a real reason to pick this up beyond the seasonal packaging itself.
Beyond the daily-reveal format, the calendar's packaging is designed to fold out into a winter wonderland racetrack once all twelve windows are open, giving the full set a themed display backdrop rather than requiring collectors to source separate display materials. That built-in display option is a meaningful value-add for anyone planning to keep the full set together as a seasonal collectible rather than distributing individual cars into an existing diecast collection.
NASCAR's listing confirms pricing, manufacturer representation, and the Liquid Color chase piece, but the full twelve-car checklist with individual driver and scheme details hasn't been itemized as of this writing. Collectors specifically chasing particular drivers or schemes should check the official NASCAR store listing directly as more detail becomes available.
Since this calendar reveals its full lineup gradually across twelve windows, planning protection for each car as it's unboxed keeps the whole set in matching condition by the time the last window opens.
For individual cars, especially the Liquid Color chase piece, a premium acrylic protector case keeps a standout piece displayed securely and dust-free.
For organizing the full twelve-car set as it's revealed, a 5-slot 1:64-scale display case gives multiple cars a clean, uniform display option that works across mainline diecast releases generally.
