While the builds of this Advent Calendar may not be something we've never seen before, I think that the LEGO Harry Potter advent calendars are the best LEGO advent calendars in terms of new prints. Each minifigure in this set, which are seven in total, has at least one new print. It is great to get a random ghost, and the Dumbledore minifigure looks great, even though it is still based off Richard Harris' Dumbledore instead of the one played by Michael Gambon. I really hope we see an advent calendar based off 12 Grimmauld Place someday.
5:06 For those of you who didn’t grow up with the Harry Potter PC/Computer Games, I think this references “Wizard Crackers” Which Draco uses to prevent Harry from leaving the Castle. They end up failing, but that’s to be expected.
I think the point is Lego offering accessories for the "main" set of this castle system, and it's kinda assumed you won't need all of them / are not supposed to use all of them at the same time. This is already the thing with the Potions class, which competes for space with those 2 other side builds from the set itself. There are rumors of a Dueling Club set in January, and that theoretically should ALSO take place in the Great Hall. It is, of course, suboptimal and kinda messy - having all those bricks half of which you simply can't think of a use for. I think the Great Hall needed a bigger interior as well, that outside area with the railings ends up stealing space you could use for placing stuff. What they definitely could have done is film a video with Atticus giving us some tips on what could go where.
I’m so excited for the ghost caroler! “Merry Christmas, merry Christmas Ring the Hogwarts bell 🎶 Merry Christmas, merry Christmas Cast a Christmas spell”. 🎶
11:08-11:15 The person on that collectible portrait is Helga Hufflepuff. 11:26-11:35 The person on that collectible portrait is Rowena Ravenclaw. (Minus 10 points from you) Honestly, out of the LEGO Advent Calendar sets we're getting this year, the Harry Potter one is the best.
They brought back Dwalin's beard mold from 2013 for Professor Flitwick in the book sets which looked super accurate. Now they just threw a basic santa beard. It feels really cheap
I know absolutely nothing about Harry Potter but I still enjoyed looking at this calendar and comparing it to the ones I am interested in and how much better it looks.
So cute! Can't wait to get it. Last year my Xmas decorations were Harry Potter themed and the advent calendar was a great piece to decorate my shelves. I will be doing the same this year! ETA: I would have taken out the brown plates in the great hall, accommodate everything a bit more to the left and the garland behind the professors table. It might fit better IMO.
Since we are not getting new sets for the Fantastic Beast spinoff and the qualituy of these advents is decreasing, it would be nice to do once in a while a FB figure in it...
Sick of these lame one, get an exclusive character or let's start going into the fantastic beasts IP. THEY HAVE SO MUCH POTENTIONAL WITH FANTASTIC BEASTS
Harry Potter: Pro: readily lends itself to Advent Calendars Con: you're perpetually limited to a Great Hall theme. (Yes, I know we've had three NON Great Hall calendars: the two board games and the Hogsmeade one. Still, I imagine that given enough time, the Hall is going to repeat like B-1s in a Star Wars calendar.)
I'm surprised they still haven't covered Harry's Christmasses at the Burrow or at 12 Grimmauld place, both of which we do get little glimpses of in the films.
Love your videos, thanks for all your work! Man the figures look sooo good. I wonder if there will be another area to the great hall with the next castle (tower build with those exposed hinges at the front 🤷♂️)
This is not my favourite HP advent calendar. The ghost fig is the best followed by Flitwick and Dumbldore and then the kids are Ok but mostly like the sweater printings. Do not like any of the small builds but like the 3 candy accessories. So only buying on a discount. I really dislike those statue builds - really Lego not very good

"Ramona Ravenclaw"? 10 points from Hufflepuff.
Sorry 😔

I would buy this just for the choir ghost. She's magnificent.

I motorise my Hogwarts Express and put it under the tree every year! Lego had the same idea

This is the only one worth the price and the only one I am interested in purchasing.
Thank you for reviewing them all!
I actually really like this callendar. Imo the best one so far for this year
Thanks for reviewing the set early. Helps a lot.
yo WHATS up! Your channel is soo useful/helpful when im considering to purchase a set, and may be my favourite Lego review channel! Much love
Aw I appreciate you saying that. Glad I can help ☺️
I really like the builds and figures. Despite your clumsy placement, I think the builds look really nice in the great hall.
That Professor Flitwick torso would be good for Loki in a suit

I urge you to read the books

They should have included a clear “action” piece for the ghost lady so she can “fly”
Ravenclaw's symbol is an eagle not a raven. Films did it wrong. but you can clearly see an eagle on the printed tile.
Their House colours are also blue and BRONZE, but almost all merchandise has it silver
Susan Bones got the Moaning Myrtle hair piece in red. Speaking of recolors.
I can't wait for December 😊
Since we are not getting new sets for the Fantastic Beast spinoff and the qualituy of these advents is decreasing, it would be nice to do once in a while a FB figure in it...
That would be neat. Maybe next year with Epic Universe opening

Seriously, tho, love the AC reviews and it's a favorite thing to look for every year.
Ya I get that feeling for sure. But they still come up with something new and exclusive each year. It’s very impressive
I'm surprised they still haven't covered Harry's Christmasses at the Burrow or at 12 Grimmauld place, both of which we do get little glimpses of in the films.
@ashnflash are you reviewing the new Disney Advent calendar this year?
Love your videos, thanks for all your work! Man the figures look sooo good. I wonder if there will be another area to the great hall with the next castle (tower build with those exposed hinges at the front 🤷♂️)
You can put the tables like zig zag, 2 raw to the other way
Oh ravenclaw is a bronze eagle!!
Shame that the book is a repeat of the one from Rivendell - it would be nicer to get new book prints like the ones in the D&D set and CMF
Awesome video ashnflash 😊
Marvel would have made the stand and figure separate for day 1 💀
i like it a lot better after your review
Correction, it’s Rowena Ravenclaw, not Ramona.
Another good advent calendar this year
10:43 not a new figure i have it, it camd with the ravenclaw book set
Sorry when do you think the burrow will be ready to preorder?
Yup, going to have to get this too!
Since it related last year's Disney Advent calendar custom that you made playlist is out of order
This one looks EPIC awesome minifigs great review
Have you seen the new the nightmare before Christmas set it looks so good
If I get this, I'll take out the tables of the great hall And replace them with these ones
Wow!
Jusgot mine with a beat up box and some spots opened💀
Looks awesome! I can’t tell if this one is supposed to make up a board game like some of the past HP calendars.
when is the Nightmare Before Christmas set coming out?
Are you going to do the city Advent calendar?
It should be arriving this week
Why dont they show any clear instructions to combine it with the great hall??
They should include a picture somewhere…
@@Ashnflash exactly
i really feel like all the harry ones are the same
Somethings are repetitive. But they still offer something new and exclusive each year. More than any other theme
@@Ashnflash True i really like the ghost figure
I don't think they meant for you to put EVERYTHING from the Advent calendar in the Great Hall, just the statues 😅
There’s no specification of what to put it in the Great Hall. The whole Advent Calendar takes place there
Whoops... you render without audio? Or is it just me?
Edit: nevermind, it fixed itself.
You were just too early lol
@@Ashnflash Guess so, lol
Compatible doesn't mean you are supposed to cram everything in there...
Sure, but what am I supposed to combine?
This is one of the best they got in years!
Even the marvel one is better than this years star wars one
Marvel had ZERO new figures and this has new prints on EVERYONE??? I havnt seen the star wars yet
No Christmas sweater on HP it's a very bad thing.
