This might be a hot take, but I'm personally happy that Kingsley doesn't have the cape piece anymore. I have the cmf series Kingsley, and the cape is always flowing way too far away from the torso/legs and ruins the look as a result. I think the best option or at least the one I'm going to take is to take the arms/head/hat from the cmf, and combine it with the new torso and legs to have a good looking Kingsley that doesn't need the cape
Would u prefer it shorter then.
Yeah I hated that piece so annoying
That’s a very daring take indeed
That's not a hot take: that's a scalding take.
That was literally what I was going to do! But yeah the cape piece is horrible it's never staying bye the legs and gets caught up in the arms!
Man can't believe they added Garfield in this set, now I might pick this set up
I really like how both the Ministry of Magic and 12 Grimmauld Place are kind of Order of the Phoenix and Deathly Hallows sets at the same time, with Grimmauld Place including the piano and Regulus Black’s room, and the Ministry including the Department of Mysteries.
Also, Mundungus Fletcher should 100% have been in this set.
I'm happy that we finally have a Kreacher Minifigure he is an awesome character.
Love your honest reviews Holly! Keep it up. You don’t need LAN and all that negativity that comes with it. Glad you got this set early in the uk. I look forward to seeing how you modify it. I plan to buy one first and see if I need a second one to make it a full modular but the transformation might be tricky to modify.
It’s really interesting to see a bit of a trend emerging in this wave with multiple sets having brilliant exteriors and then interiors that are a bit of a let down
I prefer it this way, the inside things are way less visible, a focus on the exterior makes sense to me ;)
I already mentioned this before, but I feel like a huge demographic with some of these new sets such as this one and “Ministry of Magic” are more the ‘collector market’ than a general adolescent appeal who may not remember some of these more niche locations from the books and films. That being the case, they really should have made these sets more elaborate and doubled the price to compensate because many of us have no problem saving up for amazing sets like ‘Diagon Alley’ and the mini-fig ‘Hogwarts Castle’. I mean I saved for a good year and and am INCREDIBLY happy with those sets!
@@clintgolub1751 they have sets at that price point as you mentioned. These make something available for those on a smaller budget
as a adult collector with a display shelf I agree it's all for exterior that's what's on show for me
@@clintgolub1751 is the ministery of magic a niche location? It's the main thing I remember from the film haha
Fun little detail with this set! In the books (and you can briefly see it in the movies), the umbrella stand in the hallway of Grimmauld Place is made from a Troll’s foot. And I love how they’ve added that for the set!
Shout out to the designer George for his consistent attention to detail, first a tiger butthole, now an umbrella stand
One of the most interesting building sets in a while. It looks a bit short but the function and interior is great, just a lot of empty space! Definitely get to Leicester Square lego store, the models are great!
I’m really loving this new style of video. Now u r free from LAN, I feel like you are giving your real honest opinions and are actually giving the set more (deserved) criticism.
Thanks for showing us all the details Holly, love the facade, not just for Harry Potter but as part of my city build too, its great to see the interiors as well! Glad you are still with us! 💖
Holly, this video is sheer genius. I love that you found this, and you managed to do a really REALLY great review. Super thorough, now I know what I’m getting myself into.. maybe I’ll just be buying parts & extra sticker sheets- I love this set & the play feature, the figs are 50/50…. But making this a modular style build with a little more detail is definitely the way I want to go with it. Excellent job, keep up the great work!
Great job on continuing to put out quality LEGO content! This summer wave looks awesome but so expensive. I’ll definitely be evaluating each piece closely so thank you for the early detailed review! Keep on enjoying your holiday!
I gotta respect the review coming out right now
I was thinking the same thing. It shows how much class Holly has.
The tan bats are from Deathly Hallows part 1 when Harry goes into Sirius bedroom, there are two skeleton dragons i think handging from the ceiling and by pulling a string you could make them look like theyre flying :)
Great and honest review! Really excited about these new Harry potter sets and this one will definitely be on my list for christmas! 😃
Keep up the great work and much love from sweden! ❤️❤️
Hey Holly, since you said you’re in the UK, I’d absolutely recommend visiting the Harry Potter Studios Tour in London if you haven’t already.
I’ve been a number of times, I always find something new every time I go! Hope you have a good time in the UK!
I went earlier this week! I missed the Harry Potter designers by one day, but it was still a fantastic experience!
Overall it's a cool set. The exterior detailing is gorgeous, honestly impressed at how good it looks.
The figures are okay. Tonks has to be my favourite, although Sirius is good. Think they dropped the ball on Kreacher's face print.
Really liked how they included elements from Deathly Hallows with the piano and Regulus' room.
For the bare bit with only a chair I think they could've had a sticker/print of Sirius' mother in the wall piece as that's a pretty memorable part of the house in the book.
The play feature is very smooth, impressed how Lego pulled it off. But tbh I think you could almost not have it and cut the price down and then have larger interiors, so no triangular floor spaces.
But as with most Lego nowadays the price is just a bit much for me so I'm going to pass on it.
Great review as usual Holly, happy you showed all those cool sticker designs off properly.
i actually really love the play feature and thatspart of the draw for me woth this set. but dont get me wrong i always wait for 20% off before i buy so im looking at this with a lower price tag in mind
I think it would only look ok if you were doing a full display in a glass case or something with other sets . It would even blend into a Lego city with a Harry Potter Hogwarts section within but on it's own it just doesn't really work too well.
I’m with 100% lives the exterior and the mini figures but I would have happily paid more for a little bit of a larger more detailed interior
Finally a review of this wave, thank you Holly, great TH-camr.
Would you consider doing a video seeing how compatible this set is with the modulars? I'd definitely get it if it would work well in a Lego city
I really want to try modify it to a baseplate and try get it to at least from the front, be compatible with them. It's a MOD video idea for the near future
Great review! The minifigures are sweet and despite the building being skinny, I think it’s still lovely :)
Thank you for being so quick and prompt reviewing these sets. “Radioactive traffic-cone” literally had me laugh out loud when you showed Crookshanks’s not great coloring.. 😂
Going to pre-order these from Target here in the U.S. as soon as they pop-up online.
Also, 100% that new Tonks aesthetic with the leg-printing is fantastic. Great job Lego!
One of the items on the first floor on the right is the troll leg umbrella stand XD, for u to put in Kreacher’s umbrella :p
I like how it has the exact color of troll figure from first part bathroom old set.
Great, first, high quality review!
I love the the way this one looks, i relaly like the brickwork. And if that upcoming sanctum (marvel) comes out, it will look beautiful together
Fun fact: Crookshanks is actually male. Great review though, can't wait for more!
I love this as a minimal space set/playset. The feature and appearance is top notch but similar to the burrow I feel like it definitely NEEDS a UCS version. it could be incredible and personally feels really iconic. Minifig wise I would have taken quality over quantity.
At last, we finally get a Kreacher minifig!
I feel like the set should have included the portrait of Sirius’ mother, I’m a little disappointed that it didn’t.
it does. It's a sticker in the room right to the dining area. The sticker shows a curtain lowered over the painting, like it is described in the books.
This certainly needs a double depth more modular type
Yay ur in my country, also very fitting for reviewing HP sets! And this set is just amazing!!
OMG ITS BEAUTIFUL, FANTASTIC REVIEW
I love the idea of having a new broom piece that works with the antenna pieces, rather than needing a completely custom broom piece.
I'm surprised the anmount of stickers doesn't bother you, to me it's such a huge letdown combined with the size in comparison to what I thought it would be! Thanks for the review, I thought I'd get this one for sure before I watched this, saved me some money 🙂
I thought I wanted this set but It looks really small and Im not sure I'd buy it for full price. I really love the new crookshanks piece though. My favourite colour is radioactive traffic cone! Have a great time in England! 😀
Fantastic set, not so fantastic RRP. And thank you!
Finally a review on this amazing set🤩🤩🤩
Great to see an early review! Please upload the rest when you can, always look forward to your reviews!
Love your honest reviews, Holly! Keep up the good work. It's a cool looking set, but for the price ($120 American), it doesn't seem like a good value. The Tonks is the best looking minifigure in the set. Interesting decision by Lego to put Crookshanks in the set but not Hermione.
No way! You got this set early where did you get it?? I'm in the uk and was going to try smiths toys at the weekend, was stunned you've got this review out so soon 🥳 did you get the ministry as well? I have to have that yesterday! It looks amazing 🤩 good job 👏
The tan bats in Sirus' room are seen in Deathly Hallows when Harry goes in there. They're bat skeletons that move.
Phenomenal review. 23 minutes flew bye with the depth of this video.
I wish they had Walpurga Black’s screaming portrait from the books, but they didn’t really show her in the movies. Her portrait appears in the LEGO game though.
Can you do the Ministry Of Magic next?
My wallet’s going to hurt pretty bad when Lego Harry Potter season starts
Same the three sets I want first are all £115 , £90 and £80 whoops so worth it though I'll cry later 🤣
Great review! Have a great trip! You should try a video where you impove the set. Just as an idea :)
Hi Holly,
I absolutely love your videos and reviews!!
I’ve always wanted a Lego Kreacher minifigure and a Twelve Grimmauld Place set!!
Hopefully I’ll be able to buy this soon and add in a spare Slytherin’s Locket -from The Ministry Of Magic!!
This set actually does already include the locket too!
@@markjoe6423 Thank you!!
I never noticed it, so thanks!!
I managed to pick this up for $80 USD today and I can’t wait to start building tomorrow!
Great review, love the look of this and the minifigs. But I’m thinking of waiting and getting the set when it’s reduced. Hope you’re having a great holiday!
I’ve wanted this version of Sirius since this film came out!
I live in the uk hope you have a fun time have you come over for the royal celebrations in london
Dang, Ron has to play the piano with Crookshanks
To be fair they did such a good job on the CMF version of kingsley it makes sence they didn’t go to in depth with this version because they would be too similar
I'm glad they switched up the torso and leg prints especially
The hat on the other hand is very plain….also the bats in the bedroom are actually meant to represent the bat skeletons in deathly hallows part 1 when they were in the room! 😁
Glad you're still going after LAN. They sound passive aggressive, petty, and toxic honestly. You can always tell who is trying to suck up to LAN by not calling out quality control, print issues, cheaping out on fig detail, overpriced sets, etc. Brickset has gotten a lot worse recently. Glad you're calling them out for the price v size here! Kreacher needed & deserved dual-molded legs for feet like Dobby. Just another cheap out IMO.
Thank you so much for this review!!
Those nails look handy for removing wrongly placed bricks.
Fr
so cool your in Harry's home town!
I believe the bats are a reference the the bat skeletons in his room in the Deathly Hallows Part 1
I'm glad to see some leg printing. It was oddly missing from HP for awhile.
I think I'll get this set, but I do wish they would do this at a ucs scale one day, to really do it justice with how important it was throughout the series
That’s so cool you’re from and visiting where the movies take place
Agh! We were so close to getting a purist door for a 10 Downing Street MOC!
Where did you get this set so early? Please tell me i need to know it cuz i want it so bad😩😀😄
Someone funnily enough got their Lego pre order sent early, but there have been some popping up across Europe since they’re the only ones getting them on the 1st
You should combine 2 grimmaulds places
How did you get these sets so early if you were kicked out if lan.
Great review , I love the building but yes I would have to change it 🙄 thank you Holly
"Radioactive traffic cone" XD
That's why I'm glad to get it with the promos it was definitely worth it with that
Take a look at images of serius's room in the films. The bats represent little rotating bat skeletons hanging from his ceiling. Very cool detail
Small nitpick: Crookshanks is a boy cat :)
I. LOVE. THIS. WAVE. Definitely grabbing this set ASAP.
Think I'm going to need to bricklink 4 of those printed ear pieces to put on the electronic Mario and Luigi figures lol
YES
you know what material they could use for Tonks' hair? That plastic that went on some Hot Wheels cars that allow them to change colors in water or in the sun. This way we could get some very colorful mixes for her.
The Kreature minifig reminds me of deadpool from xmen origins haha
Crookshanks is male actually, i think. But great review! I'm thankful you managed to get it up so quickly. Think this'll be the only set i'll get from this wave.
Nice review! I like the new sets but only buying three.. this one dumbledores office and the horntail, all the other sets looks nice but they're not worth it... like the ministry looks poorly done imo 🤷🏻♂️
I’ve built of all those so far and to me Dumbledore’s Office felt a little expensive for what you get. This and the ministry also feel a bit much but the builds were a lot better and more interesting for the money
I was watching the top 10 lego sets video and I thought that maybe the D2C HOGWARTS express could be motorised for the price point its at maybe it could happen! I saw in your video that you said you wanted a remake of the old one so maybe lego's making a newer motorised hogwarts express
I recently had been wondering the same thing, it would certainly justify the price more and I think it would really add a lot fo charm and magic to the set
Green jacket dude looks like Cassian Andor lol
Awesome set my friend
I have half a mind to buy this set just for that tonks mini
I'm actually on this chapter in the book.
Holly when was the last time you read the books have a good holiday😃
The tan bats are the mobile of the skeleton winged creatures. Tan like bone white.
Looks like a winner. Thanks!
Did you get any of the other Harry Potter sets from the summer wave early? Can’t wait for your ministry of magic review!
My like for "radioactive traffic cone"
Can't even pre order this set in the UK so gutting as it's the first set I'm buying June 1st can't wait !!!
June 19th
@@carterphillips9475 Nope. 1st of June for UK/Europe. US has to wait
Can we all, for a sec, appreciate the manicure effort that goes before making a video?
Lego cuts ties with Holly and she has to move to the UK 😢 Tragic. Thanks for the great review!
She didn't move their, just on a holiday
@@hiddenbrickstudios :0
The Lego themes I like to see someday are.. Charlie and the chocolate factory gravity falls, nightmare before Christmas, polar Express and zootopia
I feel like I would personally get this set just bc of all the Easter eggs like the black family tree the piano and for book readers I’m pretty sure the sticker with the curtains on it might be the picture of Walburga Black (Sirius’ mother) that screamed and yelled when u were too loud on the stairs
Don't know who decided that face printing on Kreacher was the one to go with. No mouth for starters looks very off, and the wrinkles just look too dark and angular.
I know the screaming portrait was on the stairs. But how cool would it have been by the chair on the side panel. Also would have like to have seen a trol foot umbrella stand. !! Great set though. I am so torn as to which to buy first… definitely not an easy decision. Lots of great sets.. …
I haven't even heard of this set, but now seeing it I'm going to get a job just for it.
The bats in sirius’ room is because in the movie off to the corner he has bat skeletons on a strings
Row houses.....looks impressive!
The bats are from the deathly hallows when Harry goes into his room and they are dinosaur skeleton puppet things.
It kinda looks like some new york buildings too and im sure it would look nice next to the new sanctum sanctorum coming out soon
How did you get this set early if your not in LAN anymore?
They sent them to her before she got kicked out
I would buy this but I don’t have enough money
Wish they had bumped the price $40 and made it modular compatible.
So sorry to be like this but DHP1 is my favorite of the movies so I have to say this - they visit Regulus' room in Part 1, not Part 2. But you got the piano scene right and it's still a great review!
Surrey! You're so close to London, are you planning to go there? ☺️ I'm from the South (Bath) but there was a lot of Harry Potter filming that happened near here! This set is definitely going to be an investment set 👍
Not this trip sadly, though funnily enough I will be in Bath next year for a family wedding and will certainly try make it to London on that visit
Not this trip sadly, though funnily enough I will be in Bath next year for a family wedding and will certainly try make it to London on that visit before we head out that way
I’m building it right now
Awesome video
I’m going to put Kreacher in front of the window, just to make it look like Universal (visited 2 weeks ago).
I also think I’m going to save this for October, hoping for a GWP
