Product Description
When you're a young sorcerer-in-training, hanging out at the mall takes on a whole new significance. So when characters out of the imagination of best selling author J.K. Rowling decide to hang out in Legoland, no doubt the floo powder leads them to the food court of Lego kit number 4723, the Diagon Alley Shops. Designed for Harry Potter fans, this book and movie tie in is definitely Hermione-centric: the 80 pieces feature the classic Lego interlocking component, but include such novelties as broomstick, cat and mouse, witch's hat, and even tiny books and cupboards that open and close. Complete with a cardboard backdrop depicting two stores, and a 16 page full color instruction booklet, Lego's version of Diagon Alley Shops ensures that no Harry fan will confuse "Flourish and Blotts" with Abercrombie and Fitch.

Accessories galore!
By A Customer
If you like tiny, detailed accessories, you'll love this set -- it's practically nothing but accessories with just enough building blocks to hold it all together.
This Lego set impressed both my 10-year-old daughter and me, her discerning mom. She thinks the animals (a whopping five of them here!) are the cutest things ever. I think the best toys are those that "do" more than one thing, and most of these pieces provide multiple possibilities for creative play. Examples: the translucent cylinders can be wands, glow sticks, or test tubes full of colorful potions; the colorful gem-shaped pieces can be decorative stoppers for the bottles or jewels in the treasure chest; the feathery orange-red plume works equally well as a quill pen and as a flame. In addition to being versatile, these pieces are sturdy for many hours of handling. The only flimsy items, the thin vinyl capes, came packaged in their own little cardboard box that prevented crumpling. This little box is actually sized right for small fingers to be able to put the capes back in - for continued storage and protection. Thank you Lego, for thinking ahead!
If you have a Lego fan who also loves Harry Potter, you won't go wrong with this fantastic set. We can't wait to try out the rest in the Harry Potter series.

By Wesley Young
For me, this set was mainly used as a sort of "super-detailing" set for the other Harry Potter sets I own. It is crammed with all kinds of small details, items, animals, and furniture. Lots of potions, bottles, stands, and hats. You can configure minifigs with this set, add bottles to scenes, and all kinds of very, very fun ideas. On it's own, as the set is intended, it completes two very detailed shops, with a cardboard backdrop that provides two solid walls for each shop (complete with good detail on the cardboard itself).
The set also comes with one Hermionie minifig. (Note: She's in casual, non-Hogwarts attire. I found that she looked quite decent in a spare Harry Potter body, legs, and cloak, with her head and hair substituted. Since each set comes with one Harry figure, most people are sure to have such a spare.)
One solid point off for the background being nothing more than a piece of cardboard - kids can easily destroy such a thing in a flat minute. The rest of the kit is solid Lego quality.
