    new set connectability? —Adam Angle
   The new Harry Potter sets are not yet available in my area, but I like the look of what I've seen so far from the few pictures that have been made available. My question is this: I thought I saw on one of the advertisements the statement, Return to (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

     (...) Hi Adam. Yes, the new Harry Potter (castle) sets are made to the modular design, just like the old ones. So you can build them together, just as you like. I scanned the danish catalog a while ago. This show a picture, of how Lego connects all (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)
   
        Re: new set connectability? —Drew Dirschell
   I disagree with Kecia. I have the new sets, and while they may seem like they are part of the modular design, there are many "topper" modules. Most aren't able to have other sets stacked ot top of them, only able to "sit" on other modules. ie:what (...) (22 years ago, 26-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

     (...) In England, and in fact most places outside the USA, "first floor" is not the ground floor, but the one above. Could this explain the problem? --Bill (22 years ago, 27-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

     (...) Not if it was situated in a part of the castle that is only two floors high. I think expecting total realism from a LEGO(R) toy building set is not realistic. Build your own Hogwarts(R) castle, with your own Harry Potter(R) and Hermione (...) (22 years ago, 27-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

     Hey Ken, I can't seem to get home before it gets dark to take good pictures. (Grrr...winter coming...) I hope to post some on Saturday morning. (22 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

        Re: new set connectability? —Alfred Speredelozzi
   I think you are supposed to take the sand green roof pieces off, and then you find that they stack nicely. Of course, i don't own any of them, but I can see it in the pictures rather clearly. -Alfred (...) (22 years ago, 27-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)
   
        Re: new set connectability? —Drew Dirschell
   (...) Some sets that's true (most of 4730), others its not. For example, if you take off the green roof bits of 4735 slytherin, it's not nearly as tall as the module needs to be to work with the other modules, which are all thirteen bricks tall (...)
