25 years after Harry Potter, Lego is celebrating with a 3,500-piece set
Lego is marking the 25th anniversary of the Harry Potter film franchise with a new large-scale set depicting the Ministry of Magic, the underground wizarding government headquarters featured in the books and films. The set offers a cross-section view of the location, from the London street-level entrance—complete with a tube station and the iconic red telephone box used to access the Ministry—down to key interior rooms, appealing to long-time fans marking the quarter-century milestone since the franchise began.
The set contains 3,491 pieces and includes recreations of notable locations such as Arthur Weasley's and Dolores Umbridge's offices, the Ministry's courtroom and the Hall of Prophecy. It comes with 14 minifigures, including Harry and Voldemort, plus the first-ever minifigure of Arabella Figg. Priced at $449.99, the set measures roughly 51cm high, 35cm wide and 15cm deep, and will be available to Lego Insiders from 29 August before going on general sale on 1 September.
