Lego 4841 Hogwarts Express Review

The Lego 4841 Hogwarts Express is a remake of the 4758 Hogwarts Express, it includes 646 pieces, Three train cars measures over 21 inches (53 cm) long, and five minifigures. The minifigures included, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Ginny Weasley, Luna Lovegood and Draco Malfoy. Luna Lovegood is an exclusive to this set; she is not seen in any other set but this one. From the other entire minifigure, Luna stands out from the crowd because of her bright pink jacket, and her unusual facial expression. The expression on her face has the 3d glasses as she did in the Harry potter movie, and makes her stand out from the darker, bland color scheme of the other ones. Ron Weasley’s car makes an appearance in this set; the Flying Ford Angela is just one of the most beautiful Lego cars that I’ve seen. The car is just retro, I love the look and design of the 50’s cars, it’s overly awkward squareish look to it, the pin stripe chrome on the sides, and of course the wings of the car if you excuse the pun. The car looks slightly different than it did in the movie, but a lot better than the 2004 version less bulky but more of a cleaner look.  Now on with the train, the 4841 Hogwarts Express version comes with a lot more things this time then the 2004 version, first off it comes with a new luggage car attachment. The Main train engine and Passenger car are now in higher quality bricks, and designs. It also this time around, focuses on detail. Inside of the Main train engine has all the pretend controls that the driver of the train could use. The Passenger train and luggage storage train are adequate. Just like the 2004 version, they have a similarity they are not motorized. When the set came out, I was excited because I thought it could go around the track, but alas it doesn’t. But this minor detail does not overshadow the set itself, the set it wonderful and would be a great set to anyone who is a Harry Potter fan, or Lego train buff.
