LEGO Harry Potter set which came out last week!
I have reviewed this product during the start of March and I have already provided my finished article to Argos when I submitted this blog post.

Let’s talk about this product! LEGO Harry Potter!
My Argos Testers Review
An incredible addition to the LEGO Harry Potter set this one contains the Hospital Wing from The Prisoner of Azkaban. In this story Ron has already had his leg injured and is lying in the Hospital feeling sorry for himself, while Harry and Hermione are up in the clock tower ready to turn back time with the Time Turner.
There are some beautiful pieces in this set, and well thought out LEGO pieces. Including the Time Turner, the Clock which is rotatable thanks to the cog mechanism that is set up during the build, the Hospital bottles like Skele-Gro and even the accuracy of the small Box of Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans! Even Madam Pomfrey with her Trolley of elixirs and various potions for every sort of ailment is a genius use of LEGO pieces.
I loved putting this set together, it took just less than two hours and was fairly straight forward to complete. This set is designed for ages eight and above due to the smaller parts and the more complicated aspects such as the mechanisms for the clocks. I thought the additional items such as one owl and the fact that the set is hinged are really fun. You can choose to have the Hospital straight and the building closed, or use the three hinges and remove the central bar across the inside and you can open the room right up for playing.
Overall it is a very aesthetically pleasing LEGO set with many quirky and fun aspects to it. I love the look of the outside with its many windows and the multiple clocks. The characters clothing is accurate to the film in this series and this set would look great alongside the others from the same film. This set is a must for any Harry Potter LEGO enthusiast.

My Honest Opinion
As someone who loves the Harry Potter Wizarding World AND someone who loves LEGO I was ecstatic to get the chance to review a LEGO Harry Potter set. This particular one had so many incredible details and aspects that I wasn’t expecting to be as good as they were. I would recommend this set for anyone who shares that same passion and who appreciates LEGO for all its wonder.
I give the set a 5/5 for its Design, Entertainment Value and its Quality. You always get Quality toys with LEGO but to have real playable and posable scenarios right out of a film is why I rate this product so highly. Overall a wonderful addition to the Wizarding World of LEGO Harry Potter and a must for anyone collecting to build the entire castle and all its intriguing rooms.
