Harry Potter Hogwarts School Deluxe Electronic Playset

Harry Potter Hogwarts School Deluxe Electronic Playset

As any fan of J.K. Rowling's already classic stories knows, Hogwarts is the boarding school where young Harry Potter learns to become a wizard. The school, a place almost too magical to imagine, is depicted here in miniature. A mystical sound effect signals the opening of the unit as 11 rooms are revealed, most featuring secret surprises. The Owlery, the Sorting Hat, the classrooms, and the library are all represented here, clearing the way for budding Rowlings to create their own adventures on the spot. Of course, for any playset to accurately depict all of Hogwarts' many rooms, even the hidden ones, would require a toy far larger than anyone could build. Still, this fun set, just right for desktops or playrooms, nicely captures the spirit of Harry's alma mater and is compatible with other Harry Potter playsets from Mattel. --John Moe
