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...
German toy retailer JB Spielwaren has posted a photo of an upcoming LEGO Harry Potter polybag on its Instagram page. Expectedly, this will be a gift with purchase many places when the new sets are available in June. Here is what we get...
LEGO has updated its website with pictures and information about the new sets coming in the next few months. Four of the sets are from the Harry Potter theme and listed as available from 1 March 2022. Here I will discuss the Hogwarts Hospital Wing set...
A nice surprise to wake up to was the reveal of the first 2022 LEGO Harry Potter set on LEGO's website. The Hogwarts Magical Trunk set is colourful and while to some extent similar to the buildable books we got in January 2021, this is much more customisable. Here is what we know...
Towards the end of last year, we got the surprise Monster Book of Monsters gift with purchase (GWP) set. I hadn't really expected something similar this year, but I'm happy that LEGO decided to continue this "tradition". I was lucky to be provided with a review copy. Representing the Gryffindor boys dormitory, the 2021 GWP set is a nice addition to the modular Hogwarts sets released this year. Here are my thoughts...
As reported by Brickset, images of the upcoming Harry Potter themed gift with purchase (GWP) set have surfaced on LEGO.com. It features the Gryffindor boys dormitory.

For Harry Potter fans around the world, 1 September is known as Back to Hogwarts day. It is the day where students find their way to Hogwarts, typically catching the Hogwarts Express from Kings Cross station and arrive at the castle in the evening for the welcome feast and sorting ceremony. In the lead up to this year's Back to Hogwarts day, we ran MOC competition - and we are now ready to announce the winner...

When I saw the photos of the upcoming Hogwarts Icons set, I was captivated by the beauty the photos portrayed. But is the real set as good as the photos suggested? Having now built the set, these are my views...
In 2018, we got the large direct to consumers (D2C) microscale Hogwarts castle and in 2020 we got the Diagon Alley set. So I had been wondering - would 2021 be like 2019 - with no big set revealed in the second half of the year? Finally, we know the answer - and I like it! LEGO has produced an amazing looking set of Hogwarts Icons, which is coming soon to a LEGO store near you.
