Harry Potter Advent Calendar - Day 4
Posted by CapnRex101,
This year's LEGO Harry Potter Advent Calendar has been unlike any other so far, providing two mini models of things related to Hogwarts over the past couple of days.
I assume day four will bring another...
I am surprised to find a second minifigure so soon after the first, though certainly not unhappy. Cho Chang is the usual choice to represent Ravenclaw and her blue jumper looks marvellous, decorated with Hogwarts Castle and a line of trees like on Harry's jumper, but the owl has been swapped for a Cornish Pixie, which complements the blue shade of the jumper.
Cho includes medium legs, which I find strange when Harry's minifigure had short legs. Cho is older than Harry, but I still think consistency would be better. Regardless, the hair element and double-sided head suit this character and Cho is equipped with a reddish brown wand, as ever.
Overall - A little more Ravenclaw character variety would be great, but Cho Chang's jumper is excellent.

Why the long face?
Cornish Pixie has found the Elder Present, and wields unimaginable power!
Maybe an optical illusion, but her hands seem to be a different colour than her face.
"A little more Ravenclaw character variety would be great..." Yeah, let the smart house get more love!

Don't you mean "Why the long(er) legs?
I like the Gremlins sweater.
What about Luna Lovegood? A fan's favourite and definitely a less common entry in Advent calendar sets.
She looks like she regrets being part of this franchise.

I first read that as "unimaginative power"
The sweater and character look great.
I wonder what year she's supposed to be in here. And didn't she get a slightly darker skintone lately? Is that the case here or didn't they do it?
