Professors of Hogwarts

©2022 LEGO Group

LEGO has just added 40560 Professors of Hogwarts to its online shop.

The 601-piece BrickHeadz four-pack builds blocky representations of Professors Severus Snape, Minerva McGonagall, Alastor 'Mad-eye' Moody and Sybill Trelawny.

The four figures are numbered 170 to 173 and, when released on June 1st at a price of £40/$40, it'll be the 8th Wizarding World BrickHeadz set.

Not my cup of tea but cool nonetheless.

I like how the titles of these articles are getting more creative as the day goes on. A+ writing Huw.

So many site updates! I like what posh spice has done with her hair.. Like the look of 30435-1

Interesting that they've dropped the spectacles piece, but I like this solution

*ahem* I believe you mean Professor Barty Crouch Jr. Moody never taught at Hogwarts (at least not within the timespan covered by the movies).

Not altogether up on the Potter story, but does one of these have another, evil, face on the back of their head?

Just when you think we may be near the end of these things another set pops up! At least it makes more sense than the Spice Girls…

No, but one of them might transform into a different face altogether once the polyjuice potion wears off.

TLG should consider a BH pack that puts the concepts of 76399 Hogwarts Magical Trunk into a BrickHeadz set. So the user can populate their BH display with additional characters. Maybe that flies in the face of the whole “numbering thing”, but you could always leave them un-numbered. The Go Brick Me set allowed you to create whatever, but featured an all-white BH figure build on the box art, not numbered as far as I know, though it could have been.

There’s a solution certainly, and a way to get users some choices of characters, particularly users without certain AFOL skills like creating MOCs, seeking parts, etc. Eh…probably a dumb idea…

Very cool, all of my favorites. I would definitely buy these if I didn't limit my Brickheadz to holidays.

Don't care for these, but I can't deny the Moody eye looks awesome and the ring as McGonagall's broach is nice part usage.

40 USD/EUR RRP for 600 pieces, including some exclusive prints, doesn't seem like too bad of a deal. Even if one, like myself, isn't into BrickHeadz, this makes for a good parts pack.

Holy cats, I love these! These may have to be my first HP BrickHeadz!

Another nice selection, I really like them all.

Take my money already. Love these!

Great to see some different characters, rather than just repeating the usual main stars.

...and Ginger Spice looks good with glasses.
Not a HP fan, but I think these look cool.

I don't dislike BrickHeadz. They're 100% preferable to the abysmal Funko Pop figures! I do wish these were individual as I only really just want Snape.

I guess the round glasses piece from "Go Brick me" is no longer produced... I see Trelawny isn't using it.

@Murdoch17:
What? Oh, weird. Square glasses x4 are currently being used in 71741 for the fence around the arcade (look for the giant koi). 41615 is the only other set that used the round glasses, also in 2018. My guess is they realized the round glasses have a flawed design. Square glasses get along fine with clips, from any direction. Round ones can only accept them from the side, as the curvature of the rim will stress the clip if attached from top or bottom. The chakram has a straight section of bar on one side, while the “blade” isn’t designed to serve as a bar at all.
