LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Astronomy Tower 75969 Cool Kids’ Magic Castle Gift, Building Toy with Minifigures (971 Pieces)

I think this set is very good for its pricing i love the minifigures for the set although it would have been nice to include a half blood prince dumbledore as this was the scene where he unfortunately died in the movie i love how you can attach this to the other sets loke the clock tower and the great hall its starting to become a minifigure scale hogwarts

There is a lot going on in this set which makes for a lot of play value. I think my favourite bit is the little greenhouse with the Mandrakes in their pots - okay, so the other half didn't appreciate me pulling them out and screaming each time but I was playing! Comes with a lot of little rooms which I didn't really expect. You get Professor Slughorn's office and the Ravenclaw Dormitory along with one room for the Orrery and one for the telescope. They are all small but you can get at least one mini figure in each along with their furnishings. There is a central hall portion with some cute shelves but the best bit is the little table with the chocolate fountain the middle. The build takes time but the instructions are clear, detailed and really are step by step so it feels relatively simple to construct. It is a little bit fragile like all large Lego buildings and you have to exercise some caution when playing. If you are going to leave it built up for game play it may be worth gluing it together but it is sturdy enough for a display shelf without that or for delicate play.
