I can't believe we're already almost half way through the year. While shocked that time has gone by so quickly, it also means that it is time for the LEGO catalogues for the second half of the year. The first ones have started to appear online and revealed a few interesting things, such as the new advent calendars. Read on to see what's lined up for the Harry Potter fans...

LEGO Harry Potter sets predicted to retire in 2022 (June update)

With four sets added in March and another eight sets here in June, it is not surprising that some of the many LEGO Harry Potter sets released in recent years will be retired in 2022 to make room for the new stock.

The calendar is now showing June and the new wave of LEGO Harry Potter sets can be found both online and in stores in many countries around the world (though North America at least has to wait a bit longer). One of the new sets is Hogwarts Dumbledore's office. Apart from the headmaster's office it also brings a room long neglected. Read on for my full review...

REVIEW: The Ministry of Magic

We have seen a lot of new locations from the Harry Potter universe covered by LEGO sets in recent years. But one of the central institutions has been missing: the Ministry of Magic.

REVIEW: Hungarian Horntail Dragon

The next wave of LEGO Harry Potter sets is coming soon and LEGO has kindly provided me with copies of most sets to make early reviews of what to expect. This year we are getting yet another "kinetic" model of a flying creature, with the Hungarian Horntail dragon joining Hedwig and Fawkes. Is that one to add to your collection? Here are my thoughts...

REVIEW: The Shrieking Shack & Whomping Willow

The next wave of LEGO Harry Potter sets is coming soon and LEGO has kindly provided me with copies of most sets to make early reviews of what to expect.
