LEGOHarry Potter Hogwarts Astronomy Tower, Castle Toy Playset for Kids, Girls & Boys with 8 Character Minifigures including Herione and Ron, plus Hedwig the Owl Figure, Wizarding World Gifts 75969

Lego Hogwarts Castle Astronomy Tower is one of the best Lego Harry Potter sets which you can buy. I would say that it is even more interesting than The Great Hall set.There are many details spread evenly all around the set. The Astronomy Tower itself consists from 5 floors (including ground floor), there is also Professor Slughorn’s classroom and Professor Sprout’s greenhouse.There are 8 minifigures in total and they include: Harry, Ron, Hermione, Neville, Luna, Draco, Lavender Brown, Professor Slughorn and 1 animal figure – Hedwig. Please note that Ernie Prang’s minifigure (the older man in glasses, wearing a sand colour clothing is not included – it is pictured due to the fact that my kids had such a great time playing with this set that they mixed up minifigures from several sets and this one was the one I didn’t pick up prior to making photos… Now an Astronomy Tower turned into other, bigger project and I cannot re-do the photos :-) ).The set consists of 971 pieces and takes a while to be put together. I would also suggest that the age recommendation (9+) is pretty accurate. It doesn’t mean that younger children should not play with it. It only means that assembly might be a bit complicated and time consuming when you leave a younger child to build it on their own. As always, I think that building with a child is the best and for the advantage of both – a child and a parent.The set is amazing and due to it’s modular build it is a perfect match for other Harry Potter sets, especially other sets of Hogwarts Castle, like The Great Hall or Whomping Willow.I can highly recommend this set for every Lego and Harry Potter fan. A price tag can be a bit putting off, but I think it is worth to watch it for a while and count on one of Amazon’s promos or price reduction due to a deal.Great product!

Excellent addition to my son's Harry Potter lego collection. He's only recently started collecting HP lego and this set is richly detailed. Highly recommend.

Some really nice touches like the mandrakes that you can pull out the pots and see their little faces. Lots of play potential. Built with one child and three adults doing different sections but a child who enjoys following the instructions would get plenty of time to build it. I think it’s good value for money although we got ours with vouchers and while it was on sale. Comes with spare wands.

This was a present and was exactly what I wanted Lego is good quality

As a special treat for the kids we bought this (though expensive, it was cheaper on Amazon than on another well known store). They absolutely loved the building and there is so much play to be had. I love all the intricate detail - such a lot of time and effort has gone into the the design. Wonderfully it also connects to other sets in the series. We've got the Great Hall (https://amzn.to/2PjpE2U) which joins on to this one with the wall that comes with the Whomping Willow set (https://amzn.to/2D2MN7m) - NB there's no logical way to connect the hall directly to the tower. It looks like the Clock Tower (https://amzn.to/3a0BKHT) connects to the other end of the Hall - but we don't have that one yet. Maybe at Christmas :-)I have no idea why Amazon wants me to rate this model's 'thickness' - but it is certainly plenty thick! I've docked a star for the value for money only because I do think Lego is a little overpriced. But it is great for a special treat.

Good quality

Although I personally find these sets expensive, the final product once assembled is great.Probably the best Harry Potter set after the Great Hall one.

My granddaughter was very pleased with it...she couldn't wait to get started on it. A lovely gift and I would recommend. Good value and nice quality from Lego.
