The large, modular LEGO® Harry Potter™ Hogwarts™ Chamber of Secrets (76389) playset is a versatile, stand-out toy that’ll enchant any fan of the Harry Potter movies. 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). LEGO® Harry Potter™ toys contain favourite characters, amazing creatures and familiar locations from the popular movies. They’re an ideal gift for any child wanting to be part of the movie magic.

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. I'll never understand the appeal of this system and why it replaced the 2018 modular system. Hogwarts should be three-dimensional, not some straight wall with a repetitive exterior and bland interior due to the limited size of each section. If LEGO continue this modular system I'm afraid I won't be onboard."Instruction manuals for these sets recommend this arrangement, comprising 76386 Hogwarts: Polyjuice Potion Mistake, 76387 Hogwarts: Fluffy Encounter and 76389 Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets. That design assures absolute consistency between differing levels, including Moaning Myrtle's bathroom above the Chamber of Secrets. However, positioning that bathroom with the third floor corridor appears comparatively bland from the outside.

To that end, 76395 Hogwarts: First Flying Lesson sits as something of a halfway house between both styles, sharing elements and colours from each. That could easily have been to its detriment, but it actually manages to pull off its dual-purpose role very successfully, making for a fine addition to your Hogwarts display no matter which style of set you prefer.

Having attempted numerous configurations, I think this is my favourite. Keeping those interior spaces together was particularly significant for my display and this arrangement satisfies that need, while also looking marvellous when viewed from the exterior. In fact, I was surprised by the importance of 76395 Hogwarts: First Flying Lesson which allows the separation of various modules, when necessary.
