Update: A couple of months later and we still love this set, but like all LEGO sets, there are a lot of little pieces that tend to get lost in the shuffle.
We got the caretakers cat, his lantern, Harry's invisibility cloak, Harry's broom, wands, owls, the sorting hat, etc. The stained glass windows and Dumbledores's staircase is realistic. The locked library cabinet complete with books is neat.
Our HP fan put the 1000+ piece kit together in 2 hours b/c it was easy to do with the three instuction booklets and sorting of the parts in 10 different bags. Just watch that you don't confuse bag 6 with bag 9!
I would buy again and recommend to Hogwarts fans!
The set itself is full of fun little details, from Sirius Black's face in the fireplace, to a forbidden section in the library that can be opened with a turn of the key. Every inch of space is jam packed with little details, and is a great set for collectors. There's not much room for actual play inside the rooms, but it's a tremendous display piece. The set also comes loaded with mini-figures, along with a nice-looking cloak of invisibility.
Instructions are clear and bags are labeled, so the construction of this set took an adult less than two hours.
If you're a fan of Harry Potter, this set is a must have!
First of all, the set arrived in its original product box (no extra packaging), so it was sitting on the front door step for everyone to see (it's a christmas gift). The box itself looked like someone had beat it with a baseball bat; the corners were knocked in, and there were dents all over the box. On the seams you could see the box had been opened and re-taped. As far as the contents go, I didn't even open it. I'm going to return it in the exact same condition it arrived. This order was fulfilled by Amazon. I'm seriously in disbelief!

Zudem findet man im Schloss Dumbledors Büro, die Griffindor und Slitherin Gemeinschafsträume, sowie fiele kleine Nettigkeiten aus dem Film. Sehr empfehlenswert!
L'école est impressionnante, on se retrouve avec Poudlard au milieu de son salon... oui, l'école est tellement belle quelle est resté dans le salon deux bon mois avant de remonter dans sa chambre.
À acheter les yeux fermés.
This comes in a Amazon box with lots of brown wrapping and was thrilled to explore what was inside as I bought The Burrow, Hagrid's Hut, Hogwarts Castle, Battle for Hogwarts and the Hogwarts Express at such a great price.
The Castle its self is very durable and was hours of fun! It is split up into different rooms such as the Great Hall, the astronomy tower, Gryffindor and Slytherin common rooms and Dumbledore's office. The detail in each is fantastic!
The Castle comes with connectors so It can all be joined up together. This is a new and useful feature.
Now for the minifigures. This set comes with 10 finely detailed minifigures. These are: Voldemort, Dementors (x2) Snape, Mcgonagall, Flitwick, Filch and his cat, Dumbledore, Hermoine and Harry. Each has their unique feature.
Well done Lego! A fantastic Castle with lots of detail. Lego have improved this over the years and really have got it right! As in previous sets, the figures are yellow. In the new sets the colour is perfect and the bricks are higher quality!
Well done Amazon for a great price and speedy delivery!
Would highly recommend! Get It while the price is low! It will go up soon!
My son was delighted. Not to hard to assemble.
Meet the expectation from LEGO.
