As if there wasn't enough things to collect, you can now get cuddly plush minifigures from the Harry Potter universe. The good thing is that these may sit comfortable on your bed (partners don't generally otherwise appreciate finding LEGO pieces in the bed) and thus not fill up valuable shelf space for your LEGO collection. Here is what we know...

Six new LEGO Harry Potter sets due in March 2023
It has been a busy month for me travelling. While I had planned it so I could continue my daily advent calendar review posts, I couldn't keep up with the other news, such as the official photos revealed of the new Harry Potter sets due 1 March 2023. So now where I'm back where my laptop is, let's have a look at what's coming...
Exclusive minifigure of Rita Skeeter coming in 2023
Less than a month ago, I wrote about the upcoming LEGO Harry Potter Character Encyclopedia due to be published in July 2023. Its listing suggested that would be with an exclusive Harry Potter minifigure, but the latest photos uploaded to Amazon.com reveal it is another character we'll get. Rita Skeeter will be coming, which is great news, as she's rather iconic (yet uncharming) character. Read on for the details...
REVIEW: Hogwarts Castle – Part 4
With the daily advent calendar review chewing up some of my spare time, it took longer than expected to compete this last part of my review series of the 2018 Hogwarts Castle. It had been on my wish list for so long, so it was great to actually be building it. Read on to see how the model is finalised, as I make my way through the last of the four instruction books…
REVIEW: Advent calendar 9 December 2022
According to the symbol on today’s door, we will get the last of the three "gifts" from the Prisoner of Azkaban movie. Based on the pattern from the previous two movies covered, that means we should get a minifigure. Does that hold for today - and if so which minifigure? Read on to see what we got...
REVIEW: Advent calendar 6 December 2022
Wow, time goes quickly. We are already a quarter into this year's advent calendar. Let's see what they have for us today behind door number 6...
REVIEW: Advent calendar 3 December 2022
After a big model to start with and a more average (but easier to recognise) model yesterday, I'm looking forward to see what's waiting behind door number 3. Read on to see what we got...
New LEGO Harry Potter Character Encyclopedia coming in 2023
We have seen a lot of new Harry Potter figures released in recent years - and the otherwise excellent 2012 book LEGO Harry Potter: Characters of the Magical World obviously misses all of those. It is therefore great news that a new LEGO Harry Potter character encyclopedia is coming next year. This is what we … Continue reading New LEGO Harry Potter Character Encyclopedia coming in 2023
REVIEW: Hogwarts Castle – Part 1
We have been accustomed to getting a large so-called direct-to-consumer (D2C) Harry Potter set every year around the "back to Hogwarts" day September 1st. The micro-scale Hogwarts castle started it all in 2018, then we had a break in 2019, but with D2C sets having appeared since then. Here, I'll (finally) review the set that started it all...
LEGO Harry Potter 2022 Advent calendar – official photos revealed
Christmas is coming it appears - and I haven't even seen decorations in the shops yet (I'm sure it will come soon). Overnight, LEGO uploaded the product page for the 2022 Advent Calendar to its website, so we have now a lot of information and photos of what to expect. Curious what it will bring?
