Well for $90 USD this set was kind of a let down.  As a $60 set it would have
been good.  Lots of good bits in the set.

The Knight's head is the same as peeves but the knight has no printing on the
torso.  It is just plain grey.

Harry has a violet cape in this set.

One of the textbooks looks just like the Necronomicon from Army of Darkness.

The spiral stair case leads to the backside of the "fat lady" portrait.  For
those that have not read the books that is where Gryffindor tower should be.

Well if anyone has any questions I can answer them.

(to quantify that statement:  Hagrid's hut is 29.99 retail for 299 pieces.
While Hogwart's Castle is 89.99 retail with 682 pieces.)

(...) I picked up the set 3 days ago myself. Other than the price, I thought the set was awesome all the way around. Well except for the paper panels for the roof, but otherwise a really cool set. But it only came with a Gryphindor/Slytherin flag. (...) (23 years ago, 8-Oct-01, to lugnet.harrypotter)
