An absolute amazing piece to add to my wife’s collection

I thoroughly enjoyed this build, beginning to end. It is a beautiful set in every way. I love the mechanics of the knob dial turning and what they do. Also I love the little hideaway of the path to the Sorcerers stone. Also looks great with the rest of my HP Builds.

I truly enjoyed the build. I would have given it 5 stars but I hate to attach stickers so it got a 4. Instructions were great! It went together quick! lots of extra pieces. I'm not a Harry Potter fan but I fell in love with the owl! I guess I'll have to watch one of the movies now. Lol!

This is one of my favorite sets to date. There are so many cool scenes that are iconic to Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone. Plus as a display piece it's stunning and a great size. My biggest issue is the price in comparison to the scale of the set and number of pieces; it's a steep price for the end product. I hope they do something similar for each book, a large ford anglia or giant Aragog atop a stack of books would be so cool!

I really like building this set and listening to the first Harry Potter book while doing it, but unfortunately I couldn’t finish building it because when I was building the model of Hedwig, the pieces could never stay together long enough for me to finish the set. I am so frustrated and disappointed as the first book of the Harry Potter series is one of my most favourite books and movies. I wish the pieces were a bit more sturdy and wouldn’t break apart as easily when making models of iconic characters like Hedwig. Awesome set otherwise though.

I've built many Harry Potter sets and was at first unsure about this one, as the picture looked like it wasn't super special compared to others, or worth the cost. I already have the other Collectors Edition set with owl and it seemed too similar. However, once I started building I immediately loved it! Every step created little hidden secrets, moving aspects, and unexpected details. This is truly a fun build and I really enjoyed every part of it. The techniques used are excellent, and the end result is beautiful. It's also not overly large (keep in mind it's only 1600 pieces), which I appreciate as I don't have a ton of display space. If you like building sets with hidden surprises, moving parts, and not too simple of a design, you will love this one.

This is one of the best Harry Potter sets I have found! I love all the little details, including the hidden ones. It’s a great size to display without taking up a lot of shelf space. Not a lot of play features but an excellent display piece. I am REALLY hoping the Lego group will do one for each book. They would look amazing side by side. It’s a great addition to the micro build Hogwarts of a similar size. A lot of detail in a smaller area.

I was so excited for this set because of all the little surprises and was concerned if they would actually work. Unfortunately I should have followed my gut. No matter how many adjustments I made and tweaks I did Hedwig's head occasionally twitches. I have taken the set apart multiple times to try to fix. All of the other components work, so I guess my Hedwig is special.

Very nicely done, I appreciate the amount of details you put into a small set. If and when you make a collectors set for each movie, I will buy. Would be cool if they all formed something in a row. Some nitpicks, a few macguffins I wish were in the set but were absent; a broomstick or snitch, Harry's letter, and the troll (I realized there was a picture, but a minifigure would have been better). I think the idea of the set having moving parts was great, but could have been executed a tad better. I didn't like the trolls club being part of the wall. Like I said, if the troll was a minifigure, it would have been better for the club to hit the troll on the head. Hedwig's head moving was cute, Hedwig having a heart inside her made me smile. And the queen moving was nice, but would have been cooler if it was towards Ron.

Talk about an absolute beautiful piece! That’s not only looks great, but it was incredibly fun to build. All the detail and effort put into the design is incredible.
