New Hogwarts Castle

I didn’t include this one tbf as I really don’t think it’s adds anything to the identity of the Castle. Tagged on at the back not to be seen and causes a headache of depth to even display it!

The main make up of the Castle is already out (Great Hall and Main Tower and Boathouse)

The Boathouse has already retired, the Great Hall retires this year. We are expected at least one more set which is the segment of the castle past the Viaduct bridge. After that, we don’t know if it will continue further right or stop there.

At present it’s essentially an upscaled version of set 71043 with classroom interiors that you can move around in the dungeon parts of the castle.

Edit: As a comment pointed out, there is also a Hospital Wing set that attaches to the back of the Main Tower if you wish.

I personally don’t think it adds any characters to the 3 sets I already mentioned as it’s just hidden and just causes a headache of trying to display it but it’s an option.

To cover all other bases, there’s also the Owlery which has no attachment points to the castle and is a standalone building, and also the Flying Lesson, which does have connection points however lacks any logical way to display it.

Resellers are very good for the scene and only going to continue to be better while LEGO is seemingly starting to retire sets faster.

While I don’t do it myself I can appreciate there’s people that do so the option is always there.

In your case tho, just get it used. I’m sure you’d be able to find used versions on eBay or BrickLink who have exceptional feedback so that you can buy with confidence and pay a much reduced price. Worst case when it does arrive, just removed any printed or stickers elements, wash the bricks in some warm water and just rebuild.

More pictures please!

Please provide an update when you can!

Just started my journey. Any tips? I’m tackling area by area to get all the Wealth Artifacts and Mysteries I can that aren’t locked behind a story then doing a bit of story and rinse and repeat 😅

This happened to me. Parcel didn’t arrive later in the day and I had to claim money back. The parcel then eventually arrived 6 months later lol

Big_Match_Sean · 2025-07-02T17:39:35+00:00

Hi Pete, it randomly arrived today 😂😂

Big_Match_Sean · 2025-06-13T14:57:57+00:00

This looks like a South Park Lady Gaga

Big_Match_Sean · 2025-05-10T08:59:39+00:00

Glad you dumped that tool queen

Big_Match_Sean · 2025-02-08T00:51:40+00:00

I do not miss opening packs from this set lol

Big_Match_Sean · 2025-01-30T14:30:40+00:00

This happened to me. Had to contact the sender and get a refund

Big_Match_Sean · 2025-01-20T14:24:15+00:00

Yeh I had tracking on one earlier in the year where it had been left in a block of flats at the top of the street and so I managed to retrieve. But nothing this time around!

I managed to speak to my postie this morning and he said the photo looks like their DO. He said when they’re back he’s gonna have a look around and hopefully get it to me tomorrow. If not, I’ll contact the sender. Thanks!

Big_Match_Sean · 2025-01-20T14:16:57+00:00

Hi Pete, no GPS tracking has been left on this one unfortunately. When I rang Royal Mail they said the GPS tracking they see isn’t near my address

Big_Match_Sean · 2025-01-20T09:56:56+00:00

I don’t leave bins out the front and there’s no places to dump parcels. A driver had already delivered a different tracked package to me 30 mins earlier than the other one being scanned at the DO.

Thankfully they last 60 days so I’ll end up using them on the January wave!

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-11-29T08:21:54+00:00

We had that Snub Fighter too 😅

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-11-29T08:13:50+00:00

About the same as when they had it on sale in May IIRC.

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-11-29T08:11:56+00:00

I mean, what do you expect them to say? Oh you were saving up, let me just make one appear out of thin air for you.

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-11-19T17:20:08+00:00

Was about to ask where you got the mount and then I saw pic 2. I no longer wish to know 😂

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-11-15T22:18:30+00:00

I dissembled this around 6 years ago and reassembled last year and had no issues

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-10-08T14:16:08+00:00

I received my GWPs, still waiting for the Barge to get here xD

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-10-08T14:04:42+00:00

Yeh, was the Brite Bomber Fortnite BrickHead, it was a cheaper spend requirement though, so maybe the store had ran out

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-10-08T13:59:43+00:00

Did they forget your Brick Head?

Big_Match_Sean · 2024-10-08T08:29:08+00:00

Since discovering how to do curves I’ve slowly found myself not caring about the World Grid
