4736 Freeing Dobby

[Resh1138]

Join me as I contemplate whether Dobby should ever be free.

When I first bought this set, I felt like it was a little overpriced. But you know what? The Collectible Minifigs (and the minifig magnet packs) have put things into perspective for me. If I’m willing to put down $15 for 3 minifigs and their accompanying magnets, or umpteen collectible figs for $2 or $3 a pop, $10.99 for 3 fantastic minifigures and the best play feature ever is a STEAL.!!!!!
dare you to come up with a matchup that isn’t hilarious. The “Dobby magically launches Lucius” function is one of the most compact, enjoyable action functions I’ve seen in a set.

Dobby is one of my favorite licensed minifigs to come along in quite a while. Simply by adding paint to what I believe is the original head mold, they’ve made a Dobby that absolutely teems with life. Lucius is the best version yet, and Harry, well, is Harry. He feels like mostly a retread (BEGONE, you awful hairpiece!)

All said, this set with its 3 solid minifigs and way-too-fun play feature is a worthy addition to the Lego Harry Potter lineup.

I like that little critter thing ...its one of those soo ugly its cute thingies he's got going ......this is a small cute set .....and he even has his sock ..nice touch

this could fit right by my comp ...I'd play with it during those long downloads to finish up ...lol

this would make a great stocking stuffer or small gift to any child or duly inclined lego loving person of any age....

and even buying online it shouldn't set you back more than $20

the next review will be of a POTC main ship(the Queen Anne’s Revenge)
