So good on LEGO for putting this hard-to-find torso in a fairly accessible advent calendar, but it does make the set less special.įollowing on from Day 1’s Privet Drive sign, this version of Harry Potter is significant as he’s dressed in the outfit where he receives the deluge of Hogwarts letters, much to the annoyance of the Dursleys. Right on cue, for Day 2 of the Harry Potter Advent Calendar, we get the titular hero himself – a Harry Potter minifigure! It’s technically an exclusive minifigure, but not entirely new as it recycles the torso from 75978 Diagon Alley, which until now was quite an exclusive and hard to find print. You can pop the Privet Sign drive on its square on the playmat, and that’s it for Day 1.Ī little bit of a plain build, and very strange not to get a minifigure out of the box, but let’s hope that we get one in Day 2! Check in tomorrow to see what we get! The Privet Drive sign is a printed tile, which you might recognise from 75968 4 Privet Drive. Nothing too fancy here, and it’s a break from the tradition of getting a Harry Potter minifigure on Day 1’s window like previous years.

Without wasting any time, let’s get started with the 2021 Harry Potter Advent Calendar countdown! Day 1ĭay 1 starts off slow and easy, with a Privet Drive sign, along with an envelope resting on the sign. Along the mat is some sort of pathway, and there’s a spin dice to move your minifigures along, with numbered spots that correspond to the Advent Calendar builds.Ī pretty fun gimmick, and I like that there’s some innovation in the advent calendar, and this should hopefully be very playable for families!Īs always, the instruction of each day’s builds are printed on the inside of the doors, so be careful and try not to rip them out! Lifting open the flap reveals the mat, which has a game, called “Journey to Hogwarts”. The art style is on point, and reminds me so much of the original book covers, and really sets the scene for the 2021 Harry Potter Advent Calendar.

Unlike other sites, I’m actually opening each window as I go, and I’ve been able to be relatively spoiler-free to be as surprised as I can get.
#LEGO HARRY POTTER BOOK UPDATE#
I’ll update this post each day, as I don’t really enjoy the practice of creating new posts for each day as it keeps it so much cleaner. I usually post updates in the morning, but sometimes if I get too busy at work, updates will be posted in the evening. If you’re new here, I do daily updates on each window of the 2021 Harry Potter Advent Calendar. This year, in addition to Harry Potter, I’ll also be counting down the Star Wars, Friends and Marvel Advent Calendars as well, making it the biggest and most involved year yet! Note: Harry and Hermione Megafigures not included.Ĭheck out the HP Advent Calendars from 20 for a walk down memory lane This is LEGO’s third year of Harry Potter Advent Calendars, and to freshen up the formula, there is some sort of game built into the Advent Calendar this year which I’m excited to see unfold.
