About this deal

The seven-book Harry Potter series has a single prominent Asian character. This character is named "Cho Chang."" Young witches and wizards aged 7 and up with a passion for Harry Potter™ will be captivated by this magical airborne playset, which features famous characters and locations from the movies. Polybags are always a difficult prospect, given the severe limitations surrounding the number of pieces. However, such challenges often trigger creative solutions and 30651 Quidditch Practice encapsulates this ingenuity. Combining microscale with minifigure-scale is clever and I think this example is appealing, especially given the detail on the tiny Quidditch pitch. Includes Neville Longbottom™, Draco Malfoy™ and Madam Hooch minifigures, and 5 buildable, rearrangeable modules, including a Quidditch™ trophy room and equipment storage room. Consider that she's a seeker with the snitch in sight. Harry flew with one hand outstretched as well.

To celebrate 20 years of magic with LEGO® Harry Potter™, the set includes an exclusive, golden Professor Quirrell minifigure and 2 random wizard card tiles for kids to collect (16 in total). No, it does. While a 2-piece broom may not be the answer, this broom design looks really bad. The only brooms I've seen that are that shape have been standing upright in a broom closet for decades. Nowhere in my comments did I demand users stop purchasing merchandise deriving from Rowling’s properties. No threat intended. Just observing that society is generally trending towards a direction that disagrees with Rowling’s viewpoints; this is a conversation many communities will need to have eventually.

The Completed Model

The pitch could be a lot better. For one thing, why are the box seats mounted diagonally? In the film, they sat square. There were also a lot more of them, plus the lower bleachers between them. The center goals could have been mounted higher, but I don't see that as being the case. And the rotating section just looks like a giant hill in the middle of the field, which definitely isn't accurate (I've seen flat and concave, but I'm not sure which is correct). Gryffindor and Slytherin have generally been the focus of Quidditch-based Harry Potter sets, as their teams often appear onscreen. However, 75978 Diagon Alley introduced Quidditch robes for the other houses and Cho Chang sports her dark blue Ravenclaw garb here, finally ending this torso's exclusivity to 75978 Diagon Alley! If you don't want to buy it then fine, but stop demanding others do the same, particularly with your thinly veiled threats ("catches up with you eventually"). I'm going to make a completely neutral and objectively true observation that's directly relevant to the set, without commenting on anyone's political views, the actions that those views lead them to take, or any form of harm that may or may not come to others as a result. On top of that, I promise it isn't about transphobia in any way, shape, or form. That should be fine, right? All right. Here it is:

Includes 6 minifigures: Harry Potter™, Hermione Granger™, Severus Snape™, Oliver Wood, Lucian Bole and Marcus Flint.Kids use 3 long, transparent levers to play out the famous flying-lesson scene and enjoy endless other airborne adventures, including Quidditch™ practice. LEGO® building kits fulfil strict industry quality standards to ensure they are consistent, compatible and connect and pull apart perfectly every time – and it’s been that way since 1958. The LEGO Harry Potter set features Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy, Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang LEGO Harry Potter minifigures, plus 10 extra heads (6 different skin tones) and 10 extra hairstyles to create unique players. The box also contains equipment to set up 3 different Quidditch games: shoot the Quaffle through the goal hoops, launch the bludgers at the beater and catch the Golden Snitch. Sure, but users shouldn’t get touchy when other users judge this a topic worth discussing when relevant. So, yeah, Cho could have just been called "Mary Smith" and still be Asian and that'd be normal. Or she could be Cho Chang and that'd also be normal. Or Mary Chang.
