To be fair Richard Harris’ Dumbledore does have a larger variation of outfits then Gambits and therefore use the appeal of him being an exclusive figure. Anyway great review 😄

@@Earthdestroyers99 yeh I don't like Gambon as Dumbledore really Gambon doesn't come across as very likeable usually the characters he plays are gruff and cynical types and he decided to give Dumbledore an Irish accent for reasons unknown, Harris who actually was Irish didn't even do that.

The Madame Pince minifigure is one of the biggest appeals from the set, outside the great architectural design of building. Although I am a big fan of both this system as well as the green roofs.

I won't grumble about the exterior not looking like the films as that's clearly the way they're taking the theme so I'll look at the positives. Glad to see a castle set with a bit more depth to it, really wasn't a fan of the shallow boxes that some sets were like. Really impressed with the minifigure accuracy for the first & second films Filch and Madam Pince (funnily enough in a later book Hermione says that she thinks they fancy each other). Also love those book prints, they're straight out of the films the one Hermione realised she took out for 'light reading' is especially good. Nice to see the library getting some love, as it appears plenty of times, would maybe like to see a little expansion to it though.

Still my main problem with the modular sets is that they aren't great as a standalone (although this set is already way better), where the 2018-2019 ones were better. Of course these give more space to certain sections, although I just expected more.

I feel like this would have been a better set if they divided it up in 2 instead of cramming it into 1. They could have done a library set a d built it up a bit more and had a clear divide for a restricted section. And then did a Dumbledore's office as a separate set. But I still really like it and will be picking this one up. I hope the GWP comes with the launch and not in November. I hate waiting until the fall to get all my sets

This is the first set I'll get from summer wave. I really like the inclusion of the library and Madam Pince. Also, as someone who just got into LEGO Harry Potter, I don't mind "repeat" minifigs like Dumbledore and Snape - although I already have a small army of Harries and Hermiones (where's the love for my boy Ron?). This set is four stories tall, as tall as the Great Hall + Chamber of Secrets, so it will be interesting to see how they combine. The set including both Snape and Pince got me thinking of the fan theory, that Madam Irma Pince is actually Snape's mother. "Irma Pince" is an anagram for "I am Prince", i.e. Eileen Prince, mother of Snape. Their noses are described similarly, and if you study the books, you'll notice that Pince often appears close to a Snape story beat. Just some fun speculation.

I really made a Dumbledore’s office MOC (online, not yet built) two days before the set list leaked 😬 Firstly it was based on the 2002 version with some things of the 2019 Clock tower + extra things like chandelier/telescope/Fawkes. I’m going to use the bricks from this one, but definitely not keeping it altogether. I also made a library and restricted section few weeks before that, but I’m going to adjust that with things from here.
