|
|

The Hogwart's Express doesn't come with proper train wheels and so can't be run on Lego track as built.

Snape's head is glow-in-the-dark color. Don't ask me why. Peeve's head (actually, all ghost heads) are grey. I'm thinking the Imperial is dressed in grey. I have been wrong before. Allen D. Carley (...) (23 years ago, 29-Oct-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.starwars)

Isn't Professor Snape's head (I think it was his) from the Harry Potter LEGO sets an olive green? One of the heads really looked that color on the box, but I couldn't see the pieces themselves. It was definitely not grey in this case. Naji (...) (23 years ago, 29-Oct-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.starwars)
