Lego's Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall
This is the Hogwarts castle you always wanted. The Hogwarts Great Hall Lego set comes with 878 pieces and contains a lot of little nods and references to the movies.
A table in the Great Hall can be lifted up to slide objects along it, Fawkes the Phoenix can be found in Dumbledore's office, Harry can run into the Mirror of Erised, and stairs fold back to disappear and reappear like in the film.
We were most impressed that it comes with 10 Lego minifigures ranging from Hermione, Ron, and Harry to Draco Malfoy, Hagrid, and Dumbledore.
