Harry Potter and the Lego Bricks.


No, it's not an upcoming movie, just a title for this gizmo description. Lego has had a long life with their Harry Potter Lego offerings. With the wild success of the latest movies, I’m sure their success will continue. They’ve added 3 new kits due out August, 2011. I love the Harry Potter movies, but I don’t know all the names and worse yet, the spellings of the names. So I took the easy way out and got Harry Potter info directly from Logo: Expand your very own wizarding world of Harry Potter™! 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 Hogwarts™ 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 into Hogwarts. Gringott's Bank is an impressive two-story building with large double doors, and can be opened completely into one large building or closed to create one 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 pink umbrella; Fred and George Weasley; 2 Gringott's goblins; Mr. Ollivander; Lucius Malfoy (with Death Eater disguise); Fenrir Greyback; and 4 new, decorated owls. (Back to Dick) At Comic Con Harry Potter kits ranged from $11.99 to $149.99.
