As the star of umpteen motion pictures and umpteen novels, Harry Potter needs no introduction. If you don't know who Harry Potter is, you're probably the only one in your particular town who doesn't. In brief, Harry Potter is an apprentice magician who studies at a place called Hogwarts. The LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall Building Kit gives you the tools to build Hogwarts or, well, anything else that your mind can imagine.
The LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall Building Kit includes all sorts of fun materials with which to build a castle. It includes house banners, tower with movable spiral staircase, potions room and treasure room, among many other things.
Of course, it wouldn't be a Harry Potter product without mini-figures of the Harry Potter characters. These include Harry Potter (of course), Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Draco Malfoy, Susan Bones, Professor McGonagall, Professor Quirrell with dual Lord Voldemort face, Hagrid, Albus Dumbledore, and Nearly Headless Nick. Any fan of Harry Potter is probably going, "that's all?" But that's a lot of mini-figures.
Actually, that's not all. Also included are buildable Basilisk and Fawkes creatures, plus Hedwig and Scabbers figures.
Depending on how you build it, the Hogwarts Great Hall measures over 14” (37cm) high, 11” (30cm) wide and 7” (18cm) deep.
