Product Description

Expand your very own wizarding world of Harry PotterTM! No need to pass through the Leaky Cauldron. Now even Muggles can shop in Diagon Alley by building this fantastically magical set that includes 3 extensively detailed buildings and 11 minifigures! Join Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger as they shop for their HogwartsTM school supplies. Visit Ollivander's, Borgin and Burke's, and Gringott's Bank. Each Diagon Alley building is realistically detailed. Ollivander's offers an extensive selection of wands, storage shelves and a step ladder that allows Ollivander to gather wands from the top floor. The front desk has an "exploding" function for those inconvenient times when a spell goes awry. Borgin and Burke's includes a scary skeleton, glow-in-the-dark elements, a fireplace attached to the Floo Network and a Vanishing Cabinet that Dark wizards might use to sneak in. Gringott's Bank is an impressive two-story building with double doors, and can be opened completely into a large building or closed to create a smaller building. The bank's interior features a removable vault, along with the Philosopher's Stone, a clerk's desk, a chandelier and 'wonky' support pillars. Includes 11 minifigures: Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, each with magic wand; Rubeus Hagrid, equipped with his umbrella; Fred and George Weasley; 2 Gringott's goblins; Mr. Ollivander; Lucius Malfoy (in Death Eater disguise); Fenrir Greyback; and 4 new, decorated owls.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Mother's Day Gift Ever, May 9, 2011

As crazy as it sounds, I asked my two almost-grown sons to get me a Harry Potter Lego set for Mother's Day. Flowers are nice, cards are sweet, but I wanted a present that would last for years and maybe even increase in value. And the bonus? I get to spend quality time with my boys reliving the fun of building Lego sets, and the memories we share while building the Harry Potter sets are wonderful. The set that I opened on Mother's Day was....ta-da...Diagon Alley! Great choice, and I get to be a kid again along with them when we construct it later this week. (with HP movie music playing in the background) It will look great with our other Legos on display.

This is a truly gorgeous set. I purchased this for my husband for his first Father's Day, and we have had so much fun putting it together. The set is a bit expensive, but it is essentially three buildings in one, plus a few small stands (cauldron stand, an owl stand, and a hat stand). The details in this set are incredible; Potter fans will be excited to see how much care was put into the design. For example, there are small copies of the Quibbler, the Daily Prophet, and the Marauder's Map for the characters to carry, and there's a wanted poster of Sirius Black for the side of Ollivander's. It's actually a great value for the number of items that are included, and it's challenging enough to take a couple of days to build.

First, there's Ollivander's Wand Shop. This is a two-story building in green, tan, blue, and black. The window design is incredibly well done. Inside, you've got some wand shelves, a desk for Ollivander, a ladder to get to the second floor, and a few... Read more

I could not fully appreciate the architecture of the structures until they were built. The curved bank of windows in Ollivander's shop and colors used in Borgin and Burke's are both beautiful. I love the slanted columns and the ability to close the back of Gringott's Bank. I only wish that the structures had been slightly bigger so that action play with the figures could have been easier. My child and I are both huge Harry Potter fans, and we both loved this set.
