Favorite LEGO set of all time!
" This is the first Harry Potter set I have bought, though not the first very large set. As a lifelong fan of both the books and LEGO, I had to go to the LEGO store and grab this set the first day it came out!
I built this over the course of 6 days (didn’t want it all to be over with too quick) and thoroughly enjoyed all the little details that were crammed into this huge set! It’s remarkable how many different things a 1x1 smooth plate can represent. It would be fun to have a few more tiny stickers to make what things are a bit more obvious.
The stained glass windows are beautiful! Now I’m trying to work up a way to light the interior so light will sparkle through the windows to the outside.
The microfigures are cool, but it’s a bit hard to tell who’s who. In any case, the variety is great and now I can set up many of my favorite scenes from the books!
My most favorite element: the tiny flying Ford Anglia, built using only four pieces! And it fits so easily into the branches of the Whomping Willow. Delightful.
I love this set. 100% worth the cost. "

My favorite set ever!
" What an amazing couple of days I had building this! It’s huge, and very detailed, and looks great in my living room! The pieces are divided into numbered bags that you open sequentially, so you won’t spend hours looking for the piece you need. And the micro-minifigure astronauts are so cute! Great display piece. All my friends are jealous :) "

Really cool!
" This is a small set, and a quick build. I think it may be a bit overpriced considering the amount of Legos you get. However, the subject matter is fantastic. Kudos to LEGO for choosing to celebrate these amazing ladies! This set is perfect for display, and is now right next to my big LEGO shuttle and Saturn V. If you like NASA-themed Lego sets, this one is a must! "
