New Harry Potter Lego sets? We're in!
Potterheads are in for a treat as a new Lego line lets you relive your favourite moments in the Wizarding World!
On Tuesday, the Lego Group and Warner Bros. Consumer Products announced new Harry Potter sets that are “packed full of popular characters, creatures, and imaginative features” that will become available in September.
Not only does the new line offer a 10-inch brick-built Harry Potter and Hermoine Granger, it also offers ready-to-build scenes such as Harry’s battle in the Chamber of Secrets and the magical game of Muggle chess so builders can re-enact their favourite adventures as well as make their own stories.
A number of the new sets also come with an exclusive golden mini figure to mark the 20th anniversary of Lego Harry Potter. For decades, Lego has created sets inspired by the Harry Potter universe in the hopes of bringing its builders closer to the franchise’s magic.
“Two decades ago, we launched the first Lego Harry Potter set – which I played with as a 12 year old - and fans have remained just as enchanted by the magical adventures that they can relive and replay with the Lego sets today as they were in 2001. These new products are packed full of captivating features and exciting design twists that we hope will excite and enthrall builders of all ages as they explore some of their favorite moments from the films,” said Marcos Bessa, the Lego Harry Potter Design Lead.
The new line has 7 sets:
- Harry Potter Hogwarts: Fluffy Encounter (contains 397 pieces; P2,499)
