Once upon a Time in LEGO Magic
Once upon a time in the magical world of LEGO, there was a set so grand, so intricately detailed, it could only belong to the wizarding world. The LEGO Harry Potter Gringotts Wizarding Bank – Collectors’ Edition, priced at AUD $629.99, is a dream come true for fans and collectors alike. With an astonishing 4,801 pieces, this set promises an immersive building experience that brings the iconic wizarding bank to life.
The Assembly
As you start on this enchanting journey, the first thing that you notice is the immense size of the set. Piece by piece, the grandeur of Gringotts reveals itself. From the opulent foyer to the dizzying heights of the mezzanine, the model stands at an impressive 79cm high, 32cm wide, and 25cm deep. This set is a testament to LEGO’s dedication to detail and authenticity.
A Visual and Mechanical Marvel
The build is not just a visual treat but a mechanical marvel as well. The spiralling vault cart track, complete with a mechanism that stops the cart at each of the three underground vaults, adds an element of interactive fun. The set also features 13 minifigures, including beloved characters like Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Griphook. This allows you to recreate iconic scenes from the films.
Highlights and Magical Essence
One of the highlights is the Ukrainian Ironbelly dragon perched atop the bank, symbolising the chaos and excitement within. As you stack the models, the magical essence of the set comes alive, making it a spectacular centrepiece for any Harry Potter collection.
