I really do not understand all this complaining against the paper roof. What
is so bad about it?!
If the set had regular sloped pieces instead, I bet the price would have been
twice at high (that would have been a bad set then).
If the set had new monofunctional roof pieces (new moulds = expensive parts),
these would have been expensive and quite useless too.
You may believe or not, but I do love this paper roof: it gives the set a
fantastic shape, you can easiely get into the hut (great playability for kids)
and it even looks georgeous in MOCs like this one:

They are even better! I love the way you can attach them to the new dor bow
or a classic 1x1x2 door-holder. But again: Hagrids Hut is the superior set:
only http://guide.lugnet.com/set/4707
comes with the nice grill in the door's window. 4706 come with nothing but a
not existing part...
(plus piece count: 4706 = 238 p. against 4707 = 299 p. Is Fluffy worth as much
as 60 nice elements? Definitely not.)
Leg Godt!
