I tried to point you to the thread where I brought this up before,but here
is a link right to the Creator box art as was discussed there:

Also, see the non-detail pictures from 1000steine from the "First True Harry
Potter Pics!" threads: http://www.1000steine.de/harrypotter/
Now, if you haven't yet, go to http://www.harrypotter.com and see the
stills, and the trailers. Notice where the kids are wearing black pants and
cloaks-not monotone grey leisure suits and starry capes.
For some reason, LEGO is making VERY weird color/design choices for their
Potter sets. I don't understand it at all. It seems to me that the movie is
dead-on...just the way the students, Hogwarts, Hogwarts Express, and all
SHOULD look...where LEGO gets orange tables, purple chairs, tiny train
wheels, and starry capes is beyond me.
HTH,
Matt
