Item is in stock and ready to ship.When you’re a young sorcerer-in-training, homework takes on a whole new significance. So when characters out of the imagination of bestselling author J.K. Rowling decide to stage the ultimate Spell-ing Bee in LEGOland, no doubt the floo powder leads them to LEGO kit number 4702, The Final Challenge. Designed for Harry Potter fans, this 60-piece book/movie tie-in is heavier on the classic LEGO interlocking construction than other sets in the Harry Potter series, but still features such novelties as a spider web catapult and orange plastic torch “flames.” Complete with a 16-page full-color instruction booklet, LEGO makes this Challenge a snap. –Tony Mason

Lego 4842 – A Review
Lego Hogwarts
Article by Karry Brown
When it comes to keeping children enthralled for hours, LEGO is always one of my top choices. Putting the pieces together and letting the imagination flow is what kids love best and LEGO 4842 does exactly that.
Your kids are surely familiar, if not crazy about Harry Potter. This set includes the amazing amount of 1290 pieces! This includes the characters of Harry Potter himself, Hermione Grange, the infamous Lord Voldemort, Albus Dumbledore, Professors Snape, McGonagall, Flitwick and more.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the story of Harry Potter, this set depicts the scene where Hogwarts Castle is surrounded by the ever scary Dementors and the evil Lord Voldemort is with them! Harry Potter and Professor Dumbledore are going to finally engage battle with He Who Must Not Be Named. In the castle, Professor McGonagall and Flitwick are attempting to keep things in order.
In the past, LEGO has put out a number of versions of the Hogswarts Castle, however this version is truly the best one. You will be amazed at the incredible detail that has gone into this adventure set. There is Dumbledor’s office with sliding spiral staircase, the common rooms of both Gryffindor and Slytherin. There is also the Off Limits area of the library and the Great Hall in its entire splendor.
The only downfall of this product in my opinion is that it does not come with the character of Ron. However, if you have purchased other LEGO Harry Potter products then you already have one.
Your child will be delighted to discover many hidden treasures in the castle, like Sirius Black’s face in the fireplace of the Gryffindor common room, or Tom Riddle’s book that is hidden in the knight’s armor and much more. This toy will entertain, captivate and delight your child for hours on end.

If You’ve Got Ten Bucks Handy, Drop it on This Harry Potter,
A few years ago, when LEGO got the Star Wars license, I was in hog heaven. LEGO purists may tell you that this has resulted in a “dumbing down” of LEGO toys, but me, I like it. I thought it couldn’t get any better than that. And then came Harry Potter LEGO. Starting in September, the boy wizard and his friends and enemies have been appearing in plastic in various toys, ranging from stuffed owls, dogs, and dragons to action figures from Mattel, to Harry Potter LEGO.
If you’re going to buy some Harry Potter merchandise for your pups, make it the LEGO. They’re going to get a lot more play value out of it than the other toys that are part of a magical onslaught just in time for Christmas.
WARNING: If you haven’t read the first Harry Potter book, this review will give away a crucial plot point…don’t ruin it for yourself!
This is one of the smaller sets, but it gives you some very important and very fun pieces. The set costs ten dollars, has 60 pieces, and is the only way to get Harry’s Arch Enemy, Lord Voldemort. If you haven’t read the books or seen the movie yet, this little set is key to not only THIS book and THIS movie, but all successive Harry Potter adventures. And it’s ONLY ten bucks!
This set represents a little chunk of Hogwart’s, a castle which is a school for Harry and his friends. In this room is a magical mirror, called the Mirror of Erised. It’s enchanted, so that when you look in it, you see your fondest dream. For Harry, this dream is to see his parents alive and well again–he was orphaned by Lord Voldemort when he was just an infant. The mirror is also a sort of secret chamber/revolving wall (I’m not sure WHAT to call it!) That hides The Sorceror’s Stone. I haven’t seen these secret panels before, but I understand the Hogwart’s LEGO set is full of them. I like them a lot.
The minifigs that come with the set are Harry Potter and Professor Quirrell. Harry is decked out in his Gryffindor house robes, has a magic wand, and a black cloak with white stars printed on the inside. Very spiffy. His face also varies a bit from the classic LEGO smiley face… he’s got his trademark round spectacles and a tiny lightning-bolt shaped scar over his eye. His hair is also a new kind of piece that I haven’t seen before, that looks just like it does in the movie.
Professor Quirrell is wearing a purple turban and his teaching robes (he’s a Professor of Dark Arts at Hogwart’s), and he’s got a somewhat disturbed/constipated look on his face. The reason for this disturbed face is revealed when you remove the turban to find…..Lord Voldemort’s serpentine visage on the BACK of Quirrell’s head!!!!
So this really IS the final challenge…where Harry confronts Voldemort. Your children (and you, for that matter) will want this set to complete Harry’s adventures and challenges. Besides the remarkable swinging panel I mentioned, this set also includes some nifty pieces like a castle turret, a black owl, a bat, a spider web, a spider, and some torches. It fits in very nicely with the other castle sets from Harry Potter’s world, or stands alone very well.
This was the first Harry Potter LEGO set I bought, and I loved it so much that…I bought a lot more. I wouldn’t recommend just ANYTHING with Harry Potter stamped on it…but these LEGO sets are must-haves.

|A basic, yet fun set,
From the viewpoint of a Lego collector, this is a very basic set, and quite small in size. From a child’s perspective, I’m sure entire worlds are just waiting to be explorered here though. =)
It has nice features, including a “mirror” that shows Potter both with and without the Sorceror’s stone in his hands, just like in the novels (this is a sticker that changes between the views depending on the angle of which you look at it). The Quirrel figure is very nice – featuring Voldemort’s face on his backside (very authentic feature, and quite nice).
As a cost-to-features rating, though, I felt the set was just slightly overpriced due to it’s limited scope and size.

|The Man With Two Faces,
In this set, The Final Challenge, Harry Potter has just made it past flying keys and oversized chess pieces to a room filed only by a mirror that reflects your deepest desires. In the chamber he is surprised to discover that the thief of the Sorcerer’s Stone is not Snape, but Professer Quirrel! This fun set includes Harry Potter, who is armed with his wand, Professer Quirrel (complete with turban and the face of you-know-who on the other side of his head) the mirror of Erised(which shows both Harry staring into the mirror and Harry holding the Sorcerer’s Stone), a chamber that holds the mirror, and a black owl. This set is much more fun when you combine it with set #4706 The Forbidden Corridor and set #4704 The Chamber of the Winged Keys. Just to note, this is the only set in the Harry Potter LEGO lineup that includes Professer Quirrel. Have fun!

|no, the trial is free but you can’t go on free play,. you have to purchase the game. hope this helps!
no
yes you can, just go out the door to “continue story” if you have beat all four years you just go out that door and it says “Hogwarts”, and you are in the castle. you can only enter the castle as the 3 main characters. Once in the castle you can use the cauldrons of polyjuice potion to change characters. That is the version of Hogwarts free-play
