This set integrates the Sorting Hat Ceremony (#76460)

I tried my hand at making improved stairs from the boathouse to the Great Hall. For the stairs and path I made two options: what they look in the official set and what I think they should look like. What do you think?

UPDATE: The MOC is now on Rebrickable. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-274068/hairywizard/magic-castle-stairs/#details

Such a cool set to build. Loved every moment of it. Had an important missing brick so I had to take it from one of my other sets but besides that, beautiful piece!

Absolutely not how it’s supposed to be positioned but I love it this way.

Do you think they would have studied Muggle history in class? Should we integrate this Lego in a future Muggle studies classroom?

Questa è l'espansione dei set Lego Gringott e Diagon Alley, ottenuta con i bellissimi MOC di Scarlett Patronus a cui ho aggiunto vari personaggi, il muro di ingresso e un po' di decorazioni. Alcune basi grigie 16x32 non sono originali (troppo costose per poi essere in buona parte coperte). Purtroppo rimangono nascosti gli interni che sono altrettanto belli. Lunghezza totale 2,70 metri. Consigli per migliorarlo e soprattutto per esporlo?

J’ai démarré Lego avec le château HP à l’échelle des mini-figurines.
J’adore cette version mais j’ai rencontré quelques frustrations :
- hall de la grande salle manquant
- cuisine absente
- configuration de la salle de dada pas top
- taille ridicule de la salle commune des serpentards
- Quad incomplet
…

Alors je me suis lancé. J’ai acheté une deuxième aile de l’hôpital, agrandi la grande salle, déménagé dada, serpentard et poufsouffle, créé une cuisine.

Voici le résultat (certaines pièces seront bientôt changées… fenêtres vertes par exemple).

Je ne sais pas encore quoi faire au dernier étage de la seconde aile de l’hôpital.

Si vous avez des suggestions, des conseils, des remarques, n’hésitez pas… je débute.

It’s been a work in progress since 2020 (so longggg) so it would be mostly updates after video tours of what I’ve done so far. Is this a tired form of content or is it something you all would tune in to?

Planning to build it in real life and remake the box art with my own pictures, and the back too!

The build itself is from the amazing MOC of Hairywizard on Rebrickable, I am looking forward to receive all the parts I orderd recently (gosh it was near 500 euros thanks to deliveries).

The minifig selection is based of Order of Phoenix and Half Blood Prince, as those movies are the focus of this set (I thought it was logical because previous catle parts was about the first three films).

As there is no more common room to make, I add the Choir Ghost and Flitwick because of my choice of integrate the Music Classroom (there is 2 empty sliding slots for classrooms on the basement). So the ghost tradition can carry on!

Inside there is Trelawney classroom, Umbridge office, Slughorn party, Sinistra classroom, Astronomy top roof, Room of requirement and Music Classroom.

Sorry for using AI only to upscale the MOC pic as it was not really easy to tell anything, everything else is using photoshop as the good old days.

I'll show you everything once build! Stay Tuned!

Hi all, I was having some fun rebuilding some 2018 sets and saw the photograph in the back of the manual that showed the first three sets together! So I thought it would be fun to see what play I could get out of it (photography is a great excuse for play!). It’s actually really cool! I love the playability, I feel like they gave just enough of the characters to get you going.

I think next stop will be to dig out the next wave and see what happens, I have this idea of creating a Hogwarts from the 2018 sets by just incorporating each next set that comes after it. so for example, they eventually moved onto the chamber of secrets which was a new style. Perhaps that could morph into part of this castle … in ‘2018 style’ so to speak.

My personal nostalgia is strongest with these sets as I came out of my Lego dark ages with the 2018 sets.

Weekend well spent!
Added Dumbledore’s Phoenix 🐦‍🔥 to the collection.

Here it is: my expansion / upgrade of The Three Broomsticks, from Hogsmeade Village Visit. Since my last post, I've made a few small tweaks, but it's largely unchanged from my BL studio design. I will have to find another solution for my chandeliers, but for now, I'm sitting it on the shelf. I'm so happy with how it turned out!

Next, on to Honeydukes to save it from sticker hell.

So sort of figured out how to extend the side windows to the right size but have resigned to possibly picking up a second set as that seems to be the cheapest way to get more green windows. If any one else in the uk wants just the pottages build, mini figures and stickers from the set let me know, more images of the progress attached. I did end up making a bit smaller on one side as I was running out of grey brick and also remove the plate from the back of the floo network build in order to integrate it with the rest of the build
