hello this is the 2018 they go Harry Potter Great Hall set which features
details that are taken from I believe it's the first three years of the story
chronologically they let you begin at the beginning of any school year they
have the smallest representation of a boat dock out front it's just off at an
angle and it's just a little dark brown plank it's it's just barely enough to
kind of get the idea across and they do include the boat itself which is just
the long standing wooden dingy mold that actually will float if you don't have
too many people in it it will hold a bunch of folks and they just put a
lantern post small build inside of it they have a couple of the statues along
the sides of the main entrance there the the clock face is a sticker sand green
colored ski piece used up at the top there is another one also the very top
of the tall tower staircase inside of it you'll see a bunch of stickers on the
outside I am I'm good with those I'm okay with those because they definitely
had a lot of much needed detail rather than requiring the use of countless
additional pieces which would have driven up the the price and also
resulted in a design that just wasn't as smooth within this scale it would work
better if you were doing you know a super creative creator expert set to do
those with individual pieces new pieces and/or new colors around here so on the
top of the roof those are not cheese slope pieces those are a new double
angle double double slope part one by one by two thirds angle in from both
directions they've also used the pyramid shaped version of versions of those in
tan and also these kind of spear points four-sided spear points in tan along the
sides these windows have the greats in them and those are the the smallest
standard lego lego windows they're just a lot
from there and they've created a insert part that matches the design that we've
had for quite a while for the arched style window so it matches that design
back over there and it's just in this size and shape which looks really good
from the outside and from the inside and they've also used that exact same design
around here and that also looks really good the color is chosen for this whole
thing that whole thing I think are very good
I appreciate the variation you know they tried to keep it from being too boring
it's not just a big ol massive of tan overall looks pretty good from the
outside but most of the work done on this to design it and to build it it's
all about the interior speaking at which you do need to open the doors from the
inside but once you do get a nice view down into that hall and oh that looks
pretty good you just need some supplemental lighting in there they
don't let you take the roof off of this but yeah the details are good let's look
at it from a better angle yeah this is a pretty nice scene given the very limited
amount of space that's available in in the set relative to the size of the
actual Great Hall I think that the right level of detail was used here and you
can put a lot of students at these tables and they work just fine I think
with the little short-legged figures even though you know they're not
able to to bend their legs to sit I think the proportions work out okay and
you can also move those short legged figures in a little bit closer to the
table if you want and have them just standing on the ground which which might
even work out a little bit better you have seating for three faculty members
up there and they've got some some goblets there's also the trophy back
behind there and you know the windows just really look nice of above you get
some of the floating candles with the new candle piece candlestick piece and
the candle flame piece for for 2018 they have all four houses represented up top
but you can only see banners for two of them at a time unfortunately
you just have to reverse these around if you want to see the others and they
don't give you duplicates of any of these stickers so if you want to have
the big celebration of the winning house at the end of a year yeah he might want
to just try to brick link some more sticker sheets or just print out your
own would be a lot cheaper but they use the space that they had I think as best
reasonably possible and it it just looks good the only thing that I don't like
here is as I mentioned previously it's a little bit difficult to get light into
this space a lot of light is is blocked from the end here and a lot of light is
blocked from the top because the the roof does come almost halfway over so
yeah it's just a little bit limiting keeps it from being as bright as I would
like it to be but the build is pretty proper wanted to try to give you this
low angle also looking back towards the back of the room so you can see how the
the light comes through the new window insert elements I feel like it looks a
little bit better in person than I'm able to capture on camera things in the
tower section of the build are relatively quite limited I mean for
stairs you get a single spiral staircase that can be moved out of the way like so
revealing a broom over there and that's just it but I mean this this is nice I
like these staircase the spiral staircase pieces now they go together
they've had that around for quite a long time but you know there's not all that
much in terms of access you can get up to this level which has some potions in
there and some other ingredients large cauldrons small cauldron you know that
looks good enough but you can really realistically only put what two figures
in there you know one facing that way and maybe just yeah there we go
one facing that way to get a little bit of variety but that's just that and then
you don't have any access to the next level up with the treasure room got
Hedwig hanging up hanging out up there right now and this is just the basic
reddish-brown color and inside are some gems five different colors of gems if
the the two blueish ones look similar it's
because they are similar but one of them is actually technically purple the other
one's a dark blue and you also get the newer style of a spider
the more recent mold in just a regular black and that really gets stuck in
there found if you really put it down onto a plate where it fully fits in but
pretty realistic looking thing especially in black and especially as it
kind of Slithe slithers around and screws around in your hand if you have
it and an angle like that and then finally up to the top ah yes this is
good although there's really no space to use it properly certainly looks good on
its own though they have five stickers used around the outside just for the
frame and then the highly reflective sticker used for the image that appears
in it so this was I believe the first image that was ever ever shown the first
vision that was ever shown in it but of course there are multiple visions to
show and they do give you alternate stickers so you just you know swap that
that piece around so you can have this facing towards the front
here's another that makes sense so are you trying to get that so you can see it
evenly and there's also one other still I don't think they ever showed this one
though did they on screen with the mirror of Erised said removed there is a
perch behind it and I have placed the brick-built minifig scaled Fawkes there
that's pretty appropriate looking you know for for a build something that's
not made with a specialized mold but you can also put Hedwig back there or you
could also place the the sorting hat back there if you want to use that for
storage but that does bring us to the end of the look at the entire build
really so let's get into some of the smaller details like the sorting hat it
actually gets a specialized mold with the face on it and everything for the
set not just a generic wizard hat I mean the generic wizard hats I think were
perfectly fine but I feel like this is going to be a
very collectible piece long term that really serious Harry Potter fans will
want to hold on to and even folks who aren't really into Lego that much if
barely at all may want to get this and you know fortunately there are
aftermarket ways to get individual pieces without buying entire large
expensive sets but there are other reasons to want to collect small things
in this set as well as you'll see very soon
this is the last proper build I guess that I haven't shown you yet in this set
it's the basilisk and yeah it's it's ok you know it's I feel like it's a bit
small and I mean there's only so much that you can do with this size I feel
like this was one of the last things that was designed they had a very
limited parts budget that was still available after designing everything
else and yeah it's ok for its size I think it's it's fine good man articulate
upper and lower jaws got the suggestion of the eye there and light actually
comes through that so that's good and then you have all these mixels style
style ball joints so you can make it kind of look like it's slithering around
slithering around a bit works best on the ground it's actually difficult to
get it to rear up unless you just coil the tail in one direction but it's it's
ok you know focusing all the way in on the figures here we have Dumbledore and
McGonagall and the prince for each of these look fantastic to me they are so
luxurious their robes really did good justice to them I believe and check out
Dumbledore there with his new hairpiece that's interesting they kind of went
above and beyond I thought the previous one that was used
just as long hair in general was fine but this is certainly better hopefully
they will be able to find more uses for that hairpiece in the future on
different figures different characters it's good stuff
as well yeah good stuff all around include
on the backs of these torsos and with their alternate face prints so for
Dumbledore you get the face with no spectacles no glasses on and it it works
just fine with the the beard on with the beard off you know the beard piece looks
a little bit odd I don't know what you think about I think this one looks a
little bit better to me but I mean he's supposed to always have the the beard
piece on I suppose but yeah just really good prints on every single printed
piece that I see here and of course the different colored ones here's Harry and
Ron with their different colored ones of course the generic Gryffindor outfits
the torso prints that will work for any students of the house including ones
that you make up yourself Harry looks very good with the new
hairpiece in my opinion and each of these gets an alternate face I think
again I've said this son on lasts review I think the faces both faces that they
chose that they designed for a run don't look that great to me don't look that
much like the actual actor whereas what they did for Harry is pretty much
spot-on here's Hermione with again that exact
same torso print and on the righties susan bones with the generic Hufflepuff
outfit so all good once again an existing hairpiece
possibly recolored for the first time in dark orange for four bones there on the
right and the new for 2018 hairpiece for Hermione looks fantastic to me
definitely look forward to that one being used again in the future hopefully
on other characters than just this one in particular and this is a a rubbery
hair piece here that kind of grabs on to the headpiece good alternate faces for
each of these they're they're not too expressive there's not a whole lot going
on there but I do think they are appropriate
here's Professor Quirrell and nearly headless Nick of the Knights who say me
two very good figures once again girl just fine here it doesn't look too
fantastic but once you take off the headgear you'll see something very good
for that one that is a new kind of turban piece not the existing design
again I'm surprised that they came up with something new for this character it
does look very good it does look updated from the old one you know it's it's more
fine with its sculpting and hopefully they'll be able to use that further in
the future as well but his alternate face is the most perfect
yes correct me if I'm wrong on this I think this is the only character that
Lego has ever given a double-sided face that belongs oriented only one way you
know the the face of the one who must not be named is supposed to be on the
back of his head so that's that's just perfect that's exactly how it should be
and then you also get an alternate face for Nick and I really like the torso
print for Nick there has that that nice and also the prints on the legs and hip
pieces has that nice bright silver color that really shines and Oh against the
against the light gray feels a little bit ethereal
in in-person mini maybe that's not coming through on camera quite as well
as it ought to Hagrid is quite a sight to behold with the specialized torso and
specialized arm pieces this is a great looking figure if you ask me
could he use just a little bit of molding on the front of that torso I
think personally because you only put the the pockets unit but I think it
could have used a little bit of something on the front as well just a
little bit a little bit of depth but the graphic there the print is very good
they got the metallic color for the belt buckle the hairpiece is great he's got
the new for 2018 lantern your hand lantern piece which is just kind of the
basket or the cage for it they just put any regular 1 by 1 cylinder piece down
the center that you can change that out for any color
and there is no no secondary face for Hagrid that was a little bit of a
letdown his main face works really well I I think this matches the cinematic
actor actually pretty well with with the hair off and that still continues to
work with it on but it would have been nice to get different eyes for him maybe
something a little bit more relaxed looking at the underside of that torso
it's mostly Hollow and that does use just short legs and dark brown
I saved Rocko Malfoy for last because he belongs last the generic Slytherin torso
piece though can be used for any any student you like and he does have
secondary face which is even more mean nasty as a little bit of extra dust on
it there but yeah this this is actually pretty good for it is even though it's
him I think that the figure at least is is done well and you know what I think I
like that that alternate face a little bit better let me actually swing that
around with this hairpiece just as you can see how that gets kind of framed up
you already saw Hedwig but I did want to show it to you from some different
angles if you're not familiar with this one a pretty good mold doesn't have too
much detail in it which i think is is fine and kind of appropriate to the lego
style and I do like the shaping of the eye is there the print in general is
good it's recognizable and here's Scabbers himself officially it's using
the newer mold from Lego for a generic rat and it's just molded in dark tan I
think it looks perfectly fine but it is a little bit on the large side for for
child sized minifigs one last thing I needed to show you is how the Great Hall
is designed to have the whomping willow main structure build added on to it it
just attaches straight in with a couple of Technic pins and all the parts are
included so you just snap it together and
helps to you know increase the overall size and and breath and playability
of what you get for the Hogwarts castle there was one small little issue putting
these together from the back right where the spiral staircase is by defaulting
the whomping willow section of it that's over to the left lobbing a little set
section of it there is a second lamp on the wall you do need to remove that just
to have space for the stairs to come out also the smaller set has some separate
sections that can be taken apart so there's a there's a crease right there
there's a seam right there the seam right here and then there's also a seam
over here at each of those you can see the Technic pins going through the
Technic bricks so you can take those apart rearrange them if you want and you
can also attach things to the other side of the Great Hall because they do have a
couple more Technic bricks on the sides there so just a little bit more
modularity if you want to change things up so what do you know the official
Great Hall set has a very very good Great Hall but it's not great in order
to be a Great Great Hall set it would have had to be much larger which would
mean he would have to be significantly more expensive so many MOC builders
owned it out there over the years have built truly great great halls in Lego
but they cost fortunes scary scary amounts of money almost unspeakable lots
of money for for the really big and really amazing ones so given the
constraints and you know putting this into a box that can be sold at stores at
a reasonable price I really can't complain
this tower looks very good from the outside from the inside it is lacking in
my opinion overall I would have been nice to get a similar level of detail
inside of this to the interior details on the whomping willow set but again
it's it's about number of pieces and total price now this selection of
figures is fantastic I am so happy with what they've done here into
ten figures in this set is great with accessories a lot of new molds used are
they all new prints mostly new prints no no I think mostly new friends but just
just great stuff for the figure soon so collectible and so many of them in a
single set that's that's not an expert level you know budget level it doesn't
cause like $300 so speaking of the price I think the value here is is pretty
decent and especially with the help of the figures themselves they didn't have
that many figures it would feel a little bit iffy to me but this just does great
service to a lot of fans putting so many figures in here at once and the thing is
very displayable this whole section is very displayable from the back they try
to have as much configurability as reasonably possible in the space with
the changeable banners and the different visions that can show up on the mirror
of Erised said the connectability is is pretty much a must but you know
certainly we could go for more more it's more structured and yeah that's that's
what this could use more of is just more more of everything I'm very happy with
what they've done given the constraints given the number of parts and given the
price - I think it's pretty fair that's it for my look at this set though please
feel free to share your own thoughts with not only myself but other viewers
if you'd like to in the comments and I will talk to you again as soon as I can
