Actually, Harry Potter is aimed at older children 9-13 (it also happens to
appeal to younger children, teens and adults). Since Harry Potter is a major
license for Lego, I'm being (perhaps overly) optomistic about the sets and
betting that the designs will be more 'Star Wars quality' rather than
juniorised. Hopefully, 6 to 8 months from now, Castle people will be raving
about the new Harry Potter sets (esp. if they put out some midieval-style
Diagon Alley magic shops w/ the Guarded Inn style signs hanging out front).
And who knows, maybe Lego Direct will give us a Castle accessories pack to
satify our armor and weapons needs until regular Castle returns.

Well, I can dream can't I?
