THROWBACK THURSDAY REVIEW: Quidditch Match (2010 version)
I teased a while ago an upcoming review of the 2010 Quidditch Match set to compare it with the 2018 set with the same name.

As a lot of my own building activity has focused on Diagon Alley shops lately, I've picked one of the early sets depicting one of these: Quality Quidditch Supplies (set 4719) from 2003. So let's get building...
