LEGO75952 Harry Potter Newt´s Case of Magical Creatures

Just to advise that the Verified Purchase label may show correctly against this review alongside the Vine label as in addition to receiving a set to review I have also purchased a further set as a gift for a family member. This is a fantastic set and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it or give it a higher marking than 5 stars if possible.I am a huge fan of both Lego and Harry Potter/Fantastic Beasts and this is one of my favourite builds out of the new sets released. Usually a lot of the Lego I buy is for my Children but I mainly built this set by myself apart from a little help from my Daughter and it was such a lovely build and looks fantastic when finished. If I had to give one minor niggle it would be that they didn't double or treble the size of the briefcase so that the animals could fit inside and it could close with them all inside as whilst it is a decent size only the figures and teeny Niffler fit when closed.Age Suitability:-This set is aimed at children between 8 and 14 years old and it does have a few slightly more difficult areas of the build but it is mainly quite straightforward and obviously also suitable for older adults to build too.Size:-I have measured the case and when closed it measures 17cm x 13cm x 5cm.Build Bags etc:-This is a medium sized set and has 694 pieces with some small spares. The set has two easy to follow step by step instruction booklets and four main build bags along with a small separate bag containing one of the Thunderbird's wings. There is also a small sticker sheet with some stickers to apply.Figures:-The set comes with Newt Scamander, Tina Goldstein, Jacob Kowalski and Queenie Goldstein figures. Jacob has a double sided head and either a hairpiece or a helmet to wear and the other three figures all have double sided heads so that you can change their facial expressions too. There is also a teeny Niffler figure, a buildable Thunderbird, buildable Erumpent and buildable Occamy animal to build along with a green stalk to represent a Bowtruckle.Features:-The briefcase can be opened out to enable better play and has featured areas for the Niffler, Bowtruckle, Thunderbird, Erumpent and Occamy such as the twig to place the Bowtruckle or the little Gold pile for the Niffler to sit on. There is also a small central hut which has a roof that can be opened and a ladder that can be lifted to allow role play for the figures descending into the case like in the film. The buildable animals are fantastic and great fun to build and actually resemble the on-screen animals but the real star of the show for my Children and I is of course the teeny Niffler.A fantastic set, lovely build and tons of play value too and a very very easy 5 stars as I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this set. I shall try to add some photos in the next week or so to the review.

Fantastic Beasts is one of my favourite movies, if not THE favourite movie. This set was on sale so I decided to get it as a Christmas present to myself. It’s amazing. It comes with four different Fantastic Beasts, four different characters from the movie (Jacob has hair that can change and all the characters have faces that can change with little details like wands and umbrellas) and you can see where Newt works which also folds into his briefcase. It’s so detailed and amazing quality. By far my favourite addition to my Lego collection.

This is a fantastic set.. cleverly thought out and full of magic. My son who is 10 loves it, he assembled it himself proving tricky at times but well worth the money. I highly recommend this product.

Its really lovely set and my daughter ask for it for Christmas but the price is almost 3 times as it was few years back as a original but i guess that s what you pay for for retired Lego set.

Good fun to build and looks great. One of the better Lego kits as it functions well and is true to the film.

This set is 100% value for money! Bought as a gift for my 8 year old who is a massive fan of the films. He needed no help to build. I'm so impressed by the amount of beasts and characters included in the set. It is a treasured playset!

I often think that Lego is a rip off, but you actually get quite a bit for your money with this set. 3 Fantastic Beasts to build and the briefcase playset itself, along with 4 mini figs and teeny tiny little niffler.Would have been better if the case was big enough to store the Beasts inside when closed.

My 10 year old grandson loved the detail in this. He’s an expert Lego builder and it took him a while to build, so I wouldn’t say it was easy to assemble. The only downside was the size of the case- smaller than expected-, otherwise he loved it!

Producto descatalogado en España desde hace dos años que lo llevó buscando, y lo vi aquí con la caja con nombre italiano (pero instrucciones en castellano). Es muy bonito los animales y sobre todo el maletín con muchos detalles aunque pequeño. Es un juguete muy caro, aunque varía el precio según día, recomiendo meterlo en la lista de deseos e ir mirando, lo compramos por 103€ ...y lo he llegado a ver a 140€. Mi hijo lo llevaba pidiendo dos años y ya no me podía aguantar. Le ha encantado y encima sabiendo que ya no lo fabricaban ha flipado con Papá Noel.

This Lego kit was a gift for our Lego-maniac daughter who wrote, “Did you know that the set you gave me was a briefcase that expands? Sooo cool!” She didn’t waste time getting into it as seen in the photo. Of the many Lego sets of various difficulty, there has never been a disappointment (only pain when she was little and left a brick or two to be stepped on. A rare occurrence as she meticulously stores and organizes those bricks.) I am sure this set was complete within 2-3 days even with a full time job. Another winner! Thanks Lego!!!

Set sympa , animaux articuler ce qui permet de jouer avec et d’imaginer de belle scène , la valise se referme et donne un effet sympa , attention en l’ouvrant à ne pas tirer trop fort au risque de détacher quelques éléments ;)

Dieses Legoset habe ich für günstige 39€ (Originalpreis 50€) erworben.Ich habe bereits mehrere Star Wars Sets zuhause, allerdings alle noch verpackt und noch nicht gebaut.Nun wollte ich dieses hier aber gleich in Angriff nehmen, wir haben zu zweit gebaut und es war für uns beide das erste Lego seit Kindheitstagen.Wir haben 1 1/2 - 2 Stunden gebraucht. Die Anleitung ist selbst erklärend und es macht mega viel Spaß, es ist richtig entspannend!Das Set hat uns beiden sehr gut gefallen! Die kleinen Details sind zauberhaft!Zum anfangen wirklich tolles Set!Wir werden uns nach ein paar anderen Projekten auch bestimmt das Lego Hogwarts Schloss holen.Dieses Set können wir weiterempfehlen, für 50€ würde ich es mir allerdings nicht holen - 38€ fand ich völlig ok!

Perfect present for my 10 year old, she loves it
