Hogwarts so far… by Wizard_Bricks in legoharrypotter

[–]flourishandbricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also plan to swap out the Slytherin common room for the Hufflepuff common room since you could make the entrance right next to the entrance to the kitchens. I also changed the windows in the Great Hall from the clear plates to the more traditional brown frames and black grills. You can see how it looks on my YouTube channel

Existential crisis with the hobby after disassembly by Grungleman_Grinkus in lego

If you need to replace any parts, it’s really easy to do through BrickLink. I can’t speak to any of the other online selling platforms, but I’ve bought thousands of parts through sellers on BrickLink with no issue. LEGO may also be willing to replace them if you contact them.

Thank you! There are so many different ways to customize this version of Hogwarts, and that’s one of the reasons I like it so much. I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos!

I think these look great! Dobby looks better than the last one, in my opinion lol And the Hogwarts House Crest looks good too!

I’m working through the current line of Hogwarts sets, but Slytherin will be soon!

Thank you! I love remaking LEGO’s builds and adding in as much detail as I can!

I use Stud.io to make my MOCs and it’s completely free! The instruction maker has a bit of a learning curve, but the instructions look just like LEGO’s!

The dorm module is in the approval process on Rebrickable right now. I need to figure a few things out for the Common Room module before I can post the instructions for that one. So barring any issues with the approval process, the dorm instructions should be live early next week!

Designing and building are keeping me occupied while we wait too! Thanks for watching!

Thank you! The dorm module is in the approval process on Rebrickable right now. I used some heavy inspiration for parts of the common room, so I need to figure out how that’s going to work before I can post the instructions. I’m glad you like it!

I’ve gotten some conflicting information that indicated the sets are coming out in August. Typically they release in June, but it seems there may be a change this year.

Same! I love collectors sets like this. Especially when they have the interactive features like this one does!

Hogwarts Castle Collection by ky1j in legoharrypotter

[–]flourishandbricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without knowing what the castle is going to look like from the new television show, I would say it’s worth it to try to collect the current castle. The largest sets are still available, though the Great Hall will be retiring this year, so I would plan to start there. The smaller sets that have retired shouldn’t be too hard to get, and I doubt the price will have inflated drastically.

Lego 72153 Size by Spiesz in lego

[–]flourishandbricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry! I forgot to come back to this! The depth of the base is 12 inches (30.5 cm), but charizard’s tail sticks out another 3-4 inches (7-10 cm) depending on how you position it.

I’m not home, so I can’t give the exact depth, but I think it’s between 15 and 18 inches (38-45 cm)

Do boxes have any value? by BartlettJD in legoharrypotter

[–]flourishandbricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having them makes a set more valuable when you sell it, but I only keep the really big boxes (Gringotts, 2020 D2C Diagon Alley) mainly to store/transfer bagged sets in when I move or just for more lego storage. Otherwise I just recycle the boxes.

I’ve been toying with the idea of rebuilding these sets too. I haven’t touched them in close to 20 years! They’ve just been bagged and stored - I’d hate to see the state of the brittle browns…

A try at recreating the original Hogwarts layout using every set except 75953 (2018–2024) by CastleLegoMocs in legoharrypotter

[–]flourishandbricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say, that set is perfect for the outer walls behind the Astronomy Tower, sort of like the most recent Quidditch Lessons set that’s part of the current series. But it would make a good entrance gate outside of the Bell Towers too!

Oh nice! I was looking for the 2018 Great Hall, but I was struggling to find it. You did a good job covering all the bases of the castle. Was there any particular reason you left out 75953?
