LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle (71043) Review

- It's the 20th Anniversary of LEGO Harry Potter and the fourth year into the themes reboot, so how does the microscale Hogwarts Castle set hold up in 2021? The iconic castle silhouette has been immortalised in LEGO form, consisting of 6020 pieces in a very large and awkwardly shaped display piece. It was the first of several D2C sets from the theme, and has blown many fans away since.
This set also features a variety of micro figures and five of the boats.

I've been collecting Lego Harry Potter since 2007 and love displaying the sets and minifigures, which is why I want to share my passion, thoughts and opinions with you!
#LEGO #LEGOHarryPotter
5:09 the Ravenclaw badger ... excuse me what, did I hear that right. great video by the way and a lot of fun was had during the build streams of this.
“Long have I waited.”
This look so beautiful, I wish I had the money to buy it. Thanks for reviewing it. I really want to cobble together some rock work, and when I get the astronomy tower which should be soon I will have all the 2018-2020 hogwarts sets. Then I want to try and make something somewhat like this.
This set is stunning I still have it in my backlog from Christmas 2020 and the only thing putting me off isms having limited space in my flat. I think it will become a side table.
I love having this set on display! My only problem with it is that the two halves don't really snap together... I know that it makes it easier to move the whole build but when I want to just shuffle it slightly I hate that the two halves don't actually connect. Otherwise a real fantastic set! No regrets even buying full price for me!
I love the front page where it looks like your in a LEGO box. Keep up the great work
I think it’s called a thumbnail
So happy you finished it Holly! I worked on mine on breaks while working from home on my last job (Expedia… who decided to close our office after we finished the thousands of customers travel issues due to the pandemic… 🙄😒)
I have it on display proudly top of one of my shelves. I have the entire Harry Potter LEGO collection displayed beneath and on a second shelf sitting kitty corner to it… who will have the giant Hogwarts icons set on top of it next… which leaves me to figure out what to do with my 2018/2019 Hogwarts great hall/astronomy tower and the entirety of the 2021 anniversary Hogwarts sets lol.
This Hogwarts set though… I’ll always be in love with it. I put my sweat and tears into it (possibly blood too… some pieces definitely scratched me while trying to connect or put in the tiny details). I will always treasure it. Plus my boyfriend put in half for it so it makes me think of him always too. (Who I do plan to marry once I get a new job and can buy a ring… we are already 6 years together!)
I love micro-scale builds, so this is very tempting! Great review!
Its a good day when holly uploads
I almost bought this a few months ago before I found out about the stickers. Those will eventually tear or peel, and if you don't get them on properly the first try, then you have to remove & reapply them, which weakens the glue. And those micro figures...If you drop one, you might never see it again! I'm a huge Harry Potter fan and it all looks so great, but I just can't defend dropping what would cost me nearly $500 after tax & shipping for something that could've gotten some more love in design.
Just ordered this set yesterday. Beyond excited for it to come in!
Despite it being incomplete it still looks beautiful on top of my 6 ft shelf. It's also my biggest set with razor crest coming in second so I treat it well.
My favorite set! I wanna buy another just to experience it again!
13:42 Don't forget, Myrtle visited Harry in the Prefect's Bathroom.
I bought it today in Disney Springs lego store in Orlando after Someone nearly bought it, im so happy even though i just spended 509 dollars
Madlad bought this outside of a LEGO store and lost out on thousands of points
Looks like a great display piece. but for play purposes, im not a fan of the micro design... whats the purpose of including the figures if they aren't to scale with the castle?
I love that they included painted glass windows
That is a cool reivew and a really long build
I'm feeling Holly's pain. I did the exact same with this set. I bought it last summer at the Lego store because I was afraid it would be retired and now you can get it for like £100 less at other places
It's such an amazing set, one of if not the absolute best set I own.
Boring..
13:44 I think this is only the prefect bathroom (5th floor). Myrtle’s bathroom from the Chamber of Secrets is on the same floor as the message in blood from the heir of Slytherin.
Edit:
13:50 Ooh. That’s a good point. The sink definitely feels more 2nd book/movie-themed.
I’m currently building this set right now (I bought it because I was afraid the set was going to be retired). I’m considering moving the bathroom to the first floor when I reach that part of the build.
Whenever I see this I always think about that iconic video of David Beckham building this
I think the founder of slythein has the same face and beard of the ocean king. I manage to get the crown, a fish tail and a weapon for him. Now I have my own version of the ocean king.
Why do I love that thumbnail so much?
Darn. I have all the Harry Potter books and since I'm 13 I just started loving it. Currently on the 4th book (goblet of fire). It's really enjoyable and funny. When I was in 4th grade I feared Harry Potter books since they were very thick. But now I realize, when it comes to Harry Potter, the thicker, the better. I am getting a Harry Potter Lego set in January as a little gift. Also I would be in ravenclaw if anything. LOVE HARRY POTTERRR FOREVERRR
Agree on everything--especially the house panels--those should have been printed. Love the minifigs--and it's easy enough to order the new Gryffindor sword from BrickLink. (I wonder if LEGO Customer Service would mail one if you called and asked)
So pretty
You could try the LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle MOC
I love the look of the castle it's amazing but I wouldn't buy just because of the microscale figures which I don't understand why they have added them love the Lego minifigs they are impressive like the castle bought the icons set instead
I think theyre kinda cool, I already have all the minifigs that theyre based on, so i feel like the microfigs are a cool little exclusive
Idk maybe they didn't add them because THE CASTLE IS MICROSCALE AND MINIFIGS WONT FIT IN THEM
Missed the first room trial with the vines representing devils snare.
I had this set for almost a year and finally finished it. I'm working on diagon alley now. Then maybe I'll finish the Disney castle lol.
I'm building the set now and absolutely loving it and I was just wondering, in the first section were there
any spare pieces
I finished mine a few days ago and had loads of spare pieces, as long as there arent like ten of the same piece or pieces bigger than a 1x2 tile as spares, then those are okay
How did you get your Harry Potter shirt!? It’s awesome
Would you recommend getting the castle modules if you have the castle set itself?
Rise, brothers and sisters who also watched all the building streams. Our time has come.
I forget that k-mart is still a big thing there's in Australia. It's all but gone in Murica
Great Thumbnail!
Me: I wish she talked about the Micro figs and gave her thoughts on those.
Everyone else: RaVeNClaW bADgEr!?!1!
I’ve kept mine in the plastic bags so I don’t loose them, I really like the inclusion of them but it sucks that they can’t sit in the chair builds. The Umbridge and Bellatrix ones are my favourites
Bought it yesterday for 340 euros, can't wait till after the christmas weekend!! :D
salazar slythering is right handed in your set. I always knew there was something wrong with right0handed people!
I love this set, even if It takes awhile to build. Hope you get the diagon alley soon.
Oh wow, you still have K-Marts?
In Michigan where K-mart is from, we haven't had a physical location in 15-20 years.
Great Review.
I'm a Harry potter fan and I've recently came into some money and I've got the privet drive and the Hedwig set but have wanted this for a while , the retiring aspect is pushing me to buy it at the moment but like is it worth it ?
I certainly think so, it seems like a set that will inflate after retirement and it’s the most detailed and accurate looking Hogwarts model they’ve ever done. You won’t need to buy a single Hogwarts play set if you have this
Now you must get the titanic and the Grand Piano this set retires this year so I don't see anyone getting a discount On it with the inflation great review 😍
Great vid as always. Definitely the most impressive set to show off when friends come over!
PS. Great minds think alike! I made that sword swap the very moment I opened a second griphook
Currently deciding whether to get this or try and find the bugle for Christmas
I think I prefer the Bugle but since Hogwarts has been around longer and sometimes can be found discounted
@@HollyOnFilm The bugle is just sold out everywhere though
I always wanted a lego X-wing , but I can't have it as it's too expensive ;-;
Since I can not find any information or videos on this I am to assume it isn't possible or hasn't been done. But if anyone would know or have done it it would be you. I have the just recently bought this Lego set Hogwarts Castle (71043) and I already own the Hogwarts Astronomy Tower (75969) I was wondering if you had tried incorporating that set into the castle/if it was possible or if it would even look good. Thanks!
It would probably need a lot of modification and a scale adjustment but o think it could maybe be done
The crown on ur Rowena is slightly misprinted, since it's not in the center of the forehead
5:08 the what?! :O
Actually all four founders portraits are in the staircase
I just picked this up for 375 new 🎉❤
I got this for $350 new and sealed
Needs an extension
Does anyone happen to know where to get that Gryffindor nylon sports top Holly is wearing?
It’s by a company called Blackmilk Clothing. They call it a Gryffindor touchdown and have ones for each house but they’re all second hand now since it’s retired
@@HollyOnFilm amazing thank you, will have to snatch myself a Ravenclaw one soon!
I wish they made an ultimate master builder minifigure-scaled set called The Wizarding World retailing for a million bucks.
Doesn't that seem a bit absurd
Very nice, I love your videos
Lego lego strip lego human lego Ninjago lego police lego Bank
Well if i had the money to buy it
I got it for $300 off eBay!
I spend 473 on this one and one day I saw someone sell one for 380. Ahhhhh…..
Did she say ravenclaw badger?
I am going to ignore that holly said ravenclaw badger
me too
It's alot of stickers for the price ouch
Ravenclaw badger 🦡 lol 😂 you mean hufflepuff badger 🦡
Please do real vs fake videos
You should stop comparing this to the film. It’s not based on the films it’s based on the books. Only the visual structure is based on the films. There are things in this that aren’t even in the films.
6:09
I have it for €315 euro
The graphic designer didn’t do a good job at all in this set
Elaborate
You’re so cute!
This lady is so negative about everything lmao
