I am LOVING the Studio’s Tour footage you’re using for the review! Really gives an insight in how well (or how poorly) they portray the characters and (film) sets in the (Lego) sets!
Super excited for more reviews!
That photo of an aeroplane I think is a reference to Arthur's life ambition (that he mentions is his secret that he uses to confirm his identity with Molly in Deathly Hallows) which is to find out how aeroplanes stay up.
Arthur’s love for muggles is so sweet!
it was from deathly hallows?! I thought it was from the half bloos prince!
There are book references here! The blue flame in the Department of Mysteries is something I think Ron encounters, and Arthur has to deal with cursed teacups in OotP too!
Also, I'm pretty certain the Dementor accessory is supposed to be a substitute way of showing them sucking away happiness. I think it's a neat idea that works as well as it can in the LEGO system!
There's a deleted scene in deathly hallows part 1 where disguised harry encounters Arthur, so it's kind of cool they included him in this set
It's in the book too. I believe Arthur treats Harry quite coldly as the two were enemies.
Small note, those green clouds at the top aren't from the Floo Network, they're from the clouds that the decoy detonators Harry lets off in Deathly Hallows.
The size of this set is perfect, a nice balance between scale and detail. Nice inclusion of the Telephone box too! Only thing that brings the set down in my opinion is how flat the buildings look, but the interior details are so good. Solid overall though, great review!!
Thanks for the review! I'm on the fence on this one. A lot of stuff I like, some stuff about which I'm ambivalent. Not really feeling the price tag though.
Certainly a great set overall, but also certainly worth waiting and getting discounted
@@HollyOnFilm The deciding factor will likely be if I come up with a really good sketch idea featuring it :D
No way you guys made all the middle earth lego videos hehe
@@BrotherhoodWorkshop hope you will come with great idea for it. I Love your videos.
LAN: We're kicking you out, Holly: Well screw your embargo dates then, lol, great review!
Glad we finally have a deathly hallows set, as you said hopefully it opens a good window for more sets.
To it's a shame that we didn't get the "Magic is Might" fountain instead. But I guess having a statue with a bunch of Muggles being crushed was a step too far for LEGO...😅
I'm glad they're keeping the good hoods for the Dementors instead of the garbage shower-towel mould they're using in Star Wars, though.
Imagine getting like four of it and combining them that would be crazy.
Lego Group would love everyone to do that.
Lol so true😂😂😂
Both of Umbridge's faces are actually new! The smiling one is more of a smirk and lopsided in this set.
Also, Arthur's plane picture was a reference to his dearest ambition from the HBP book: "To find out how aeroplanes stay up."
I don't know if we should buy this set multiple times. I suspect we'll be getting a Dumbledore vs Voldemort set soon.
Great build/review, Holly. I really like the use of the gold crowbars and the paper airplanes :) And the trans-blue cat. Good luck packing it :)
You said the name Pius Thicknesse correctly. Most impressive.
WOOHOO
Good review Holly. Wanted to say that there has been a Deathly Hallows set before with Narcissa Malfoy, Harry , Hagrid and Voldemort in the forest in that scene where “the boy who lived, come to die” to quote Voldemort.
The photo of the airplane is because Arthur's hearts greatest desire is to know how airplanes work! I love so much this is included. (from the books)
Holly: "Wizards don't like air travel"
Quidditch: " Am i a joke to you?"
Haha
That doesnt make sense
I’m pretty sure the ministry had multiple fountains and one is of a gold wizard like in the set
This is hands down one of the sets I’M MOST ECSTATIC ABOUT. Literally has been on my wish list for years. Making them modular to build out with other sets was a brilliant move, and I 100% agree with you, that red British phone booth just makes this set near perfect.
I do wish it was a bit bigger with more detail in the main atrium however; I would absolutely shell out at least $200 for a set like this and I certainly feel the Ministry of Magic is more appealing to collectors and fans of the books/films than a casual Lego audience that’s probably more drawn to Hogwarts sets (which are amazing, don’t get me wrong). Regardless, I hope that perhaps they might want to add onto this set in the future with possibly a more elaborate extension via a D2C or something similar. Whatever the case, just very very happy to see this set. Will scoop at least 1 on soonest pre-order date!
The bee is a reference to Ludo Bagman from the goblet of fire he is head for the magical sports co operation. And the Dementors Accessory is to represent sucking out a soul.
This LEGO set had 990 pieces. In Harry Potter, 990 was the year Hogwarts was founded.
no it wasn't lol. nobody knows when exactly were Hogwarts found
The set is smaller than I expected, but it looks great. The minifigs are great also, but Umbridge needed a skirt. And Mafilda’s hair should’ve been the Cho-Chang bun in reddish brown, which exists. And Mary should’ve had Peggy Carters hair in black.
Love your Gryffindor scarf though. I’m gonna have to pick that up in Ravenclaw colors lol
I love the idea for the bun piece, I’m gonna have to get ahold of it
@@HollyOnFilm Glad I could help. I’m gonna have to do the same lol
That’s exactly what I was thinking!
In terms of the Slytherin Locket, they could have done a Trans-Black/Grey mold of an infinity stone. That would have been PERFECT, the second I thought of that I was honestly kinda furious, that would have been incredible
I think Arthur Weasley’s bee piece is in his briefcase because of how he works for the department of muggles, but he did own a pack of batteries in the books, so I don’t know why he doesn’t have that.
Too bad Percy Weasley didn’t get much of a role in the movies, I think he would fit in this set.
Maybe the best set in the wave
I.like some of the minifigures & the art deco style built, would make a cool retro style facade for city. Thanks for video & review Holly
Yaxleys head is fudges from the hagrids hut set and fudge had a hat so you could not have an alternative face
I love how ron and mary are kissing in the intro and outro.
Yes! Love the telephone box! Will definitely have it next to my LEGO TARDIS! Great review!
We do need to get Holly into Doctor Who...
Yes, but she said she has seen it before. (Ands loves the Andrew Garfield Daleks in Manhattan story ofc lol)
Arthur’s greatest ambition is to learn how airplanes fly! Haha that’s why the airplane references ☺️
not sure about the timeturner but they should have put a golden snitch or putter outter in there if they fit
I’m missing the pay/numberpad part within the telephone box. How can a minifigure even choose 62442 now?
If I remember correctly, Arthur's wish was to know how planes fly (stay in the air), so hence the picture. If Lego is mixing up some of the HP references, too bad the fountain with the witch, wizard, house elf, etc wasn't used.
The sticked window panel was on the honeydukes shop
It's 2022 lego! Lego printing is a standard for mini figure, specially named characters! 🔥
oooh! i love cats! i didn't know about the pictures, i will definitely buy this for that and the parts, dark green masonry bricks.
Sparkly Patronus Cat too is super fun
Mary’s face would work for kate bishop… just an idea
Maybe because the time turner is strictly regulated by the Ministry of Magic that’s why Pius has one to represent this 🤔 only reason I can think of without remembering the specifics from the books/movies..
Hello Holly! I liked this review. What’s your favourite LEGO set of all time?
I have mixed feelings about this set. But I think it mostly comes down to the fact that I didn't like the movies' interpretation of the Ministry of Magic, or the Ministry of Magic in general. That being said, it is an aesthetically pleasing set. But on a structural level, it reveals the tendency we saw last year: instead of having one detailed set piece or room, we have multiple rooms with multiple references in a single set. This increases the playability of the set as an individual set. This makes sense, as LEGO is fundamentally a family product or toy. But the cost is a greater level of abstaction, which makes it less appealing as a display piece and therefore less attractive to adult collectors.
When I go to the Lego store, I’m definitely getting it!
Was the typewriter at the top of the arch the office for improper use of magic?
Even though this set is smaller then expected, we do get a lot of minifigures
I got this set for 30% off and I'm waiting for it to arrive so excited!
This would've been a must have set had it included a background panel between the 2 sides. As it is, just by itself, the gaping void is very unattractive. Nonetheless, it should be relatively easy to arrange the set for some appropriate items [1] to fill the void so the set looks like a proper building interior.
Because of the relatively easy fix and me just happening to see the last unit on shelf yesterday at my local LEGO store, having been 30% reduced from CA$130 to 91, I immediately snatched it up!
*Footnote*
[1] I greatly recommend the Ravensburger HP: OotP 1k pc puzzle!
We had two deathly hallows sets in 2011, the forbidden forest and hogwarts sets
Yes but this is the first deathly Hallows part one set
Omg can’t wait till June 1
Great review!! Will pick it up
Yaxely uses Cornelius Fudge’s face😬
I don’t get why they retire sets so soon. For example right now the Weasley wizard wheezes is set to retire soon and I’m gutted because I won’t be able to get it unless I can get it on Amazon or something
Holy hand gestures batman
Holly, are the costume shots in the background of the minifigs from your recent WB HP London visit? Are we getting a vid of your visit? We were over from Melbourne to the UK over Easter but missed out as we were too late to get tickets. We had visited in a previous trip and it was such an amazing day.
Yes they are! I filmed the entire thing so I plan to post it after all the main Harry Potter wave videos I have are all wrapped up. Was originally going to be before but I didn’t get time in the end
That dementor accessory is the dementor's kiss. Yes, doesn't work the best😅
Hopefully tmr will be dumbledore’s office review 😬🤞🏻
Man well there goes my savings again. This set looks ace thanks for he video
Great review as always Holly. I always enjoy your channel. I’m curious though if you think set 4865 The Forbidden Forest counts as a Deathly Hallows set? It includes Narcissa along with Harry, Hagrid and Voldemort so I always thought it was the first Deathly Hallows set. I would love to know your thoughts. 😊
I hate how the Cornelius and Yaxley use the same face. Thought lego was done with same faces for characters in the same franchise.
Great review!
£90 in the UK but there is a sale right now for 60 I'm definitely getting this set
the retake at 11:50 xD
Also a small fact: this isnt the first Deathly Hallows set to be made. The Lego Hogwarts Castle 4867 was a small "Hogwarts" that was made for the second part of the movie. In my opinion not a great set and it feels kinda sad, but a Deathly Hallows set. I think i just remeber this set existig, because i saw it in my Lego Harry Potter Book when i was a kid and thought that its bad and not a Hogwarts Castle.
I am so getting this set to use that Runcorn head for a Ben Affleck minifig
omg that is genius
What characters do we still need minifigures of …..Rita Skeeter, Barty Crouch Sr, Xenophilius Lovegood, Percy, Bill, Antonin Dolohov, Thorfinn Rowle, The Carrows, Scabior, the Bloody Baron, Grey Lady, Angelina Johnson, Katie Bell, Alicia Spinnet, Lee Jordan, Pansy Parkinson, Blaise Zabini, anyone else?
We’re getting Percy soon
I've been looking at this set for months. It's on sale alot of the time at Costco for 80Cad which is great for CAD price but I'm just not feeling this set for me.
It's a great set, cool unique prints/stickers/pieces, got some varied figures rather than the typical plethora Harry/Herm/Ron figs but it just doesn't have that awe factor for me to want to get it.
I kind of expected a different hair piece for mafelfa idk id anyone knows what im talking but theres like a bun hairpiece kinda and i thought it would’ve fit better
Can't decide if I'm gonna buy this or the grimolds place set. What do you think? Trying to avoid buying both cus of space reasons 😵💫
Personally out if the two, I think Grimmauld Place is the better set
Glass panels aren't on the back of telephone booths. It would be inaccurate if there was...
makes sense, thats the side where the actual phone is and probably hidden wires etc
Good point, didn’t think of that
has anyone noticed she said the same thing twice from 11:39 to 11:56
Genius, yet again.
I’m going to want 2 plus like 4 sticker sheets I a ton of extra bricks lol
Is this the first time that masonry profile 1x2 bricks is featured in earth green color aswell? 😱😱 If not: anyone know what other sets they are featured in? Btw I love the videos Holly 🥰 You got a huge Norwegian fan here 😁
Arthur's alternate face looks like the old yellow Ron face print
Hi Holly how did you find these sets
Magic is might
The clear highlight of this set is the telephone booth!
Is it just me or is Yaxleys’s head a reuse of Cornelius Fudge’s head? 🤔
Completely went over my head, makes sense now why he doesn’t have a second face print
I think both the Grimmauld Place set and Ministry set are very expensive and for the first time I'll wait until they go on sale or get it at Kmart. They're nice but not great value in my opinion. Great reviews Holly!
@@MellowWell0w thanks for the info Claire. I'll keep an eye out for the sales in June 🤞
I really like this set, I think the should have used that “wedding” hair piece for mafalda hopkirk because that’s what it looks like in the movie, rather than the ponytail, plus it’s a piece they are currently producing in build a minifg stations at Lego stores, I also think it’s a shame umbridge doesn’t have dual molded legs but it is a very neat set
did anyone notice the illegal building technique above the ministry of magic logo
Rumcorn has "Attack eyebrows"
Amazon is now selling it for 30% off!
It's not a new head on the wife, it's Yaz from Jurassic World.
I have a question for all people out there! What lego set should I get? The ministry of magic or 12 grimmauld place?
Personally I perfer 12 Grimmauld Place
@@HollyOnFilm ok I will probably get that set thanks love your videos
Gonna get two (when they go on sale)
i didn't even know this set existed lol
These are attack-eyebrows…
You could take bottletops off with these!
Another one 🔥
Can you connect two sets ?
Yep you can, there Technic hold on the sides, but the roof may look a bit odd but I want to try it out
this void in the center of the set bothers me deeply.
How dare lego use the illegal building for the typwriter
I think you made an editing mistake at 11:45
Was wondering why Kylo Ren was in the ministry of magic but it’s a death eater. Duh 🤦🏼♂️
*dementor 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Dinglehopper. Nice
Pie-us thick-knees Is how I pronounce it :)
yeah, for the price, those leg pieces???
All these sets look so incomplete, a bit disappointed. I would rather want an expensive set with complete building construction.
😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
I need to copyright the big green photo frame comment :)
