Review sets sent in does not guarantee a positive review.LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4 combines two of the most beloved franchises to deliver a magical, fun-filled adventure. The content above represents my own opinion and not the company. Thank you to LEGO for sending in this set for me to review. Remember there is a double VIP point promotion currently going on for the Hogwarts Castle (71043) so it’s not a bad time to pick it up then. Ollivander is also a bonus.Īgain, this set is a gift-with-purchase of $99 or more starting this Friday, November 9 until November 21, while supplies last. For me, the best one is in front of Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes and the printed cobblestone tiles. That doesn’t mean there aren’t details with the set. It’s a pretty fun build to pass the time but the details are somewhat limited because it is in the microscale scale. If you’re a LEGO Harry Potter fan, there’s no question if you want to pick up the LEGO Harry Potter Diagon Alley (40289) or not. The back of the building has shelves full of products. The building is lavendar and orange colored with the windows using some fairly rare orange headlight bricks. It uses a black hot dog piece to give the hat the curved look. Surprisingly, it uses Robin’s head without the glasses and it has a wide smile on one side and a confused look on the other. The thing here that your eyes immediately go to is the large Weasley twin on the front of the building that lifts his hat. The last building is Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes and it is the most detailed one in the set. There’s a couple of hanging signing as well as a clipped brush which represents a broomstick. Quality Quidditch Supplies has a red color facade and the windows use the black bar frame windows. This is considered an illegal building technique but since LEGO is using it in this set, is it legal now? There are a couple of signs that are on the plate clips but I don’t think I’ve seen any hanging signs on the building. There’s nothing much going on here except for the front windows which use some trans-clear 2×2 round bricks on either side of the door.įlouris and Blotts is the bookstore that has the green and gray color scheme on the building facade. Lastly, there’s a golden statue at the entrance to represent Gringott. The back side of Gringotts has a couple of desks with lamps on top. The glass roof is a trans-blak dome piece. The columns on building are made using 3.2 shaft pieces on clips. To hold it in place, there’s a 1×2 rounded plate on the side. The Gringotts Wizarding Bank uses a turntable piece at the base to give it an angled look. There’s nothing much going on here except the six exclusive 2×4 printed cobblestone tile pieces that are spread out on the street. The Diagon Alley build starts off similar to the LEGO Architecture Skyline sets with the base of the street. His hairpiece is a longer slicked back hairstyle. He has a double-sided head with a normal look on one side and a scared, opened-mouth expression on the other. The jacket printing extends to the back of the torso as well. The torso has printing of his brown jacket with a gray waistcoat and a scarf. This set includes an exclusive minifigure with Mr. The contents of the box include four numbered bags to two, a loose 2×14 gray plate, and the instructions. The back of the box shows us some of the shops that are at Diagon Alley including Gringotts Wizarding Bank, Ollivanders, Flourish & Blotts, Quality Quidditch Supplies, and Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes.
