LEGO takes the wraps off new Harry Potter Wizarding World sets

Company teams with WBCP for launch of eight new sets from August 1.

The LEGO Group and Warner Bros. Consumer Products have revealed a new range of play-sets for fans of the Wizarding World.

Featuring well-known characters, creatures and locations familiar to every would-be Hogwarts student, the new sets will span adventures from across the eight Harry Potter films and will roll out from August 1 on LEGO.com and selected retailers in the US.

“Each year we get the chance to recreate some of the most action-packed and exciting settings from the films,” said Marcos Bessa, LEGO Harry Potter design lead. “We hope these new products inspire young builders around the world to believe anything is possible as they act out their own adventures in the Wizarding World.”

The new sets will enable fans to discover the entrance to The Room of Requirement, lure Professor Umbridge to the Forbidden Forest, gatecrash the Ravenclaw dormitory and explore the Hogwarts Astronomy Tower. They also extend beyond the walls of Hogwarts, with fans able to release Harry from the cupboard under the stairs at 4 Privet Drive, send Hedwig off to deliver an important message or explore the The Burrow.
