Gotta agree here...very nice change of pace.

Aye, it's interesting...but I wish it were able to perch. That I would like
even more...then, coupled with my wizard's hood (heehee, heehee), I could
have me an Archimedes to merit making Merlin's forest hut from Disney's The
Sword in the Stone. :-)

I like the droid escape elements w/ brick on them too, if that's what those
are...somewhat. I see a very juniorized version of the castle here...2x2x3
bricks, those icky KK castle wall pieces, and, even the round walls...I hate
to sound pessemistic, but this looks like another overpriced 6091...let's
hope not.

Aye!
About the tall guy...Hagrid, right? (sorry, I don't read HP) He's got a
killer beard/hairpiece, but he looks like a 1x2x5 brick with a head and big
arms. Now, if these arms fit the same as normal minifig arms, I see great
things for them...knuckledragging ogres, anybody? :-)

They look like 1x1 tiles to me, contrary to what Frank says. I think it's
just the box perspective, or som'n...I guess we'll find out.
