We are firmly set with models from the Goblet of Fire. But apart from the minifigures, which are from the Yule Ball, the models have not been directly related to Christmas so far, but very nicely leading up to it. So I am curious to what today's model will bring. Will we see the first true Christmas model?

REVIEW: Hogwarts Moments – Charms Class
Thanks to LEGO’s AFOL Engagement Team, I have had the opportunity to have a look at the new Hogwarts Moments series before they hit the shelves in January 2021.

REVIEW: Advent calendar 2 December 2020
Yesterday, we got a minifigure with some great accessories, and I almost awarded it the maximum of 5 house points. What is hiding behind the second door on the calendar? Will it be more accessories for the figure, or something else? And how many house points will it get? Read on to see...
REVIEW: Hedwig
One surprise when the 2020 LEGO Harry Potter sets were announced was Hedwig (set 75979).
