Do you remember who was Harry Potter's Wheezy? It was the thing Harry would miss most and turned out to be his best mate, Ron Weasley. Ron, along with three other people, were hidden at the bottom of the school's lake in the village of the Merpeople, waiting to be...

This is one of two kits sold in 2004 that was a collection of previously sold Harry Potter LEGO® playsets. Unlike the other kit from 2004 (the Maurader's Map Kit), this kit does not include different playsets that can be combined for bigger, better, more fun play...

This is one of two kits sold in 2004 that was a collection of previously sold Harry Potter LEGO® playsets. Of the two kits that were sold in 2004, this one is the only one that combined different sets (the other one combined the large and mini versions of the Knight...

This kit bundled the motorized Hogwarts Express with additional train tracks. It allowed users to increase the play value of the train by including additional tracks, both straight and curved. I have never seen this kit listed on either Amazon or eBay but I’ve...

This is the third variation of the Hogwarts Express but not the last (there was one more full sized train and one mini train after this one). What makes this particular version of the train unique from the other four is that it is motorized. Yes, you read that...

This is the second version of the train that takes students to and from Hogwarts. I've got to be honest - this train appears to be almost identical to the first version, which you can see here, which just a few exceptions. The differences seem to be in the minifigs...

This is the second of several large castle sets that, when put together, make a complete Hogwarts castle. This version is made up of three buildings: the Gatehouse, the Main Hall, and Gryffindor Tower. The Gatehouse is the gated entrance to the castle. You can post...

The Shrieking Shack was said to be the most haunted place in all of Britain. Rumors tell of hearing loud screams coming from within the house, which has no known methods of entry. What could be making those screams? And is it really haunted? Well, no. Albus Dumbledore...

Little did Harry Potter know that when he was startled by a large black dog and fell backwards in surprise that he unintentionally summoned the Knight Bus to come to his rescue. When he fell, Harry held out his wand, which is what magically calls the Knight Bus to...

Did you realize that Hagrid's hut changed in the third movie? The first two movies were filmed on small patches of land near a studio but movies 3-8 were filmed on location in Scotland. The newly designed hut was what production designer Stuart Craig wanted from the...

Harry Potter was shocked to learn that Sirius Black was innocent, that it was actually Peter Pettigrew who killed the 12 Muggles that Sirius was imprisoned in Azkaban for. Harry's shock turned to joy when Sirius invited Harry to live with him. His joy was short-lived,...

Professor Lupin might have looked shabby in his worn clothes but he really knew his stuff! He was the first Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher who actually taught useful information to his students. Not only was Lupin a great teacher but he also had a way of making...

Poor Harry Potter! Uncle Vernon refused to sign the permission form that would have allowed Harry to go to Hogsmeade so he was stuck at the school every time there was a Hogsmeade weekend. All that changed the day that Fred and George Weasley gave the Marauder's Map...

Draco Malfoy was known for thinking he knew better than most of the people around him, including teachers. Therefore, it was no surprise when Draco ignored Hagrid's instructions about how to properly approach a Hippogriff and got hurt as a result of his actions. This...

Instead of a box, this set comes in a polybag because it is a very small set. This version of the Knight Bus might be small but it is adorable! Just to be clear, this is not the large Knight Bus set but a very small one. This miniature version of the bus was a...

This is the only kit sold in 2003. It isn't a new playset but is a collection of sets that were previously sold all bundled up in one purchase. The focus of this kit is the Hogwarts castle. I have never seen this kit listed on either Amazon or eBay but I’ve included...

Remember the scene from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets where Harry uses floo powder for the first time but instead of landing in Diagon Alley he turns up in Knockturn Alley? The store he landed in was called Borgin and Burkes and with this set you get to see...

Ever wonder what it's like to shop for Quidditch supplies? Now you can find out! This is the first set released in 2003 and although it is small, it is filled with details. The set is of a Quidditch store and it can be closed (right image) or swing open (left image)....

This was a set that was sold exclusively at Toys 'R Us for an event they had in 2002. It is incredibly rare, but I was able to find and buy it on eBay, so it does show up every now and then. In my case, it was sold with another set. Hopefully you will get lucky...

This is one of three sets sold in 2002 that aren't new sets but is a collection of previously sold Harry Potter LEGO® sets. I am guessing that Lego did this so that people who wanted multiple sets could get them in one purchase, but I don't think they were all that...
