A lot of fun, a really well done set
By Homa Woodrum
Looking at a picture of this set isn't enough to grasp all the cool features. But I'm getting ahead of myself. You get three minifigs here: Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Harry! Minerva McGonagall is a new minifig in Lego form, she has a green outfit, complete with a unique sloped piece to act as a skirt. My only complaint about the dress is that the bottom pops off easily. The unique aspects of this set are great, it fits in perfectly with any other Hogwarts sets and the area around the staircase can close and stay closed. Before you can finish saying, "Lemondrops" you're ready to see Dumbledore! There are some great semi-transparent pieces that act as stained glass -- bluish purple ones for the set's secret back door and red & geen ones for a window in the actual office. In the very top of the tower there is a mechanism so that you can turn the swirling galaxy from behind. To sum it all up, there are a lot of moving and hinged areas that make this set a lot of fun to build and even more fun to play with. It isn't as simple as it looks, trust me. It took me about an hour to build. One recommendation I'd make is to build it on a table. Set #4729 is 446 pieces, and is worth every penny of the price.

By Lonnie E. Holder
Legos typically make enjoyable toy kits. However, some are better than average, and this one is such. The greatest fun comes from the moving elements and imagination that went into the design of the toy. A word of caution too. This kit is for a more experienced builder of Legos, so some children at the lower end of the recommended age range may need mom or dad's help.
One of the more fascinating features is a spiral staircase that swivels and collapses so that the toy can be closed. I also like the locking arrangement with scorpion handle that locks the outer walls into place. Another novel feature is a rotating mechanism that can be moved from outside the toy to rotate a disk with images of stars and galaxies on it.
There is also a swiveling wall that has a key on the back side, a book that can hold a plastic envelope, and a mail box that has a slot for the same type of envelope. I'm probably neglecting a moving feature, there were so many in this set.
You also get three figures. An outstanding representation of Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and (another) Harry Potter. My one objection is that every Harry Potter set seems to include another Harry Potter. I understand that someone might purchase only one Lego Harry Potter set, and thus would need one of these Harry Potters, but we are on our way to having a football team's worth of Harry's, for both offense and defense. Ah well. I guess with that many Harry's no matter how many get vacuumed up you'll always have one.
I enjoy toys that have many features. This particular set is a bit on the pricier side, but for that price you get a lot of value. This set makes a good center piece for many of the smaller Harry Potter sets available. This set is also somewhat challenging to build, and will take an hour or more of your time. You should have a large flat area to build it on, such as a table.
I consider this set essential for a collector of Legos or Harry Potter. Definitely one of the better Harry Potter sets, and one of the best Legos sets we have ever purchased. I give this Lego kit 5 stars for fun because of all the motion involved. 5 stars for educational value because of the difficulty of assembly. And 5 stars for durability given that Legos are generally durable within the limits of their design. A very good value!
