An Introduction To Lego's Latest - Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle

In November 2010 the newest and the biggest of the Harry Potter sets is due for release with the movie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The set contains 1290 Lego pieces, 3 manuals and 11 Harry Potter Lego mini figures.

Lego's attention to detail is second to none and in their usual meticulous manner have designed a castle that is certainly the biggest in the Potter sets to have been released in 2010. It includes Gryffindor's Sword in professor Dumbledor's room as well as Sirius Black's face in the Gryffindor common room.

Toy Swords For Kids

In order to keep the school safe an epic battle is looming between Harry and Lord Voldemort as the Professors Flitwick and McGonagall do everything they can to protect the school as Harry and Dumbledore face He Who must Not Be Named.

As you look inside the castle you will find Dumbledore's office with sliding stairs, the Slytherin and Gryffindor common rooms, the Restricted Section of the library and the Great Hall decorated in Slytherin and Gryffindor colors. Tom Riddle's book is hidden in a suit of knight's armor. You will also find the restricted library of Hogwarts Castle in this set along with the Astronomy Tower and vanishing cabinet

To celebrate, LEGO is releasing a new line of Harry Potter toys sure to please even the most avid Harry Potter fan. LEGO has built a lasting reputation of quality and fun over the years with building toys from popular movies such as Star Wars, Prince of Persia, Batman and Harry Potter. Each LEGO movie toy represents a scene from these famous movies right down to the smallest detail. These advanced LEGO toys are mainly for children 8 - 14 years of age, but adults love these sets just as much as the kids.

The thing that makes these sets so special is that you are unable to purchase the minifigures separatley. If you do want to buy the pieces individually you may strike it lucky with Amazon or Ebay.

The mini figures from Hogwarts Castle include,Harry Potter, Hermione Grange, Lord Voldemort, Albus Dumbledore, Professors Snape, McGonagall, and Flitwick, Argus Filch and his cat, Mrs. Norris, and 2 Dementor mini figures are already highly valued and becoming collectors items.

Because this is a larger than regular set it will take a bit of time to assemble, so I suggest that you put a few hours aside and enjoy the fun of putting it together. There are many tiny pieces so please keep them away from small children as they can be a choking hazard.

If you are after Ron Weasly you will not find it in this set but you can get Ron from the LEGO Harry Potter Hagrid's Hut set.

Overall;

Once the castle is built, there is lots of time for play and fun You can play inside the rooms the castle is big enough and comes with lots of mini figures and items from the movies.

If you are a collector of Lego or Harry Potter you will not want to miss out on this set and you can be positive that it will sellout early especially with the release of the movie in November

The quality is superb and the price is excellent. So grab yours before they disappear.
