LEGO Harry Potter Hedwig the Owl Figure 75979, Collectible Toy for Fans of the Harry Potter Movies, Room Décor Model, Birthday Gifts for Kids, Teens, Girls, and Boys

It is Hedwig. She is carrying a letter from Hogwarts and moves her wings in an elegant way. What else can a Potterhead want? Hedwig is permanently attached to the holder, therefore, the set is not very swooshable and is mostly a gorgeous display piece. The gear mechanism that makes the wings move gives the set a more advanced flavor but is not complicated to put together. If you are here reading this review, you should get the set :)

This is a relatively complicated build. You start by building the gear mechanism that moves Hedwig's wings on the stand. To be honest this went together much more smoothly than I anticipated, admittedly I checked that the gears worked correctly each and every step of the way so that I would hopefully not have any problems when the build was completed. I am pleased to say that I didn't, the wings move quite well but the operation isn't particularly smooth. Making and attaching the feathers is also quite fiddly as there are so many tiny pieces involved. Definitely one you need to build on a table top rather than cross legged on the floor. Well worth all the work that goes in to it though, not really a lot of play value but it looks fantastic on my shelf. Number Of Pieces: 630 Approximate Price Per Piece: £0.06 Build Time: 2.5 Hours
