Yeah. The models are a bit too simplistic though. When I build, I'm looking
for a challange, not something that will take me five minutes to build, and then
set on my shelf to gather dust.

The tan parts and the train windows are excellent for alternate models, but
I don't like the one piece rooftops myself. They're way too simple and chunky.
I'd rather see a bunch of 2x2 slanted bricks joined together to form a rooftop.
With those, you can control how far it slants, and even add windows and a
chimney, not some preset form.

Same here. I'm not a major HP fan, but I do like to write fantasy medieval
stories myself. Mine isn't like Harry Potter though. It's more like a mix
between many genres of stories, such as Mythology, Lord of the Rings, HP,
etc. I'm looking for a few of the hairpieces and capes for my figs,
and I'm in bad need of one of those Hogwart's Cadtle Knights.
