LEGO ‘Harry Potter’ Ministry of Magic Set Leaks Online with Release Date Details
A brand new LEGO ‘Harry Potter’ set may soon bring one of the Wizarding World’s most iconic locations to fans for the first time. According to a recent leak, LEGO plans to release a detailed Ministry of Magic set, which could potentially be one of the largest and priciest ‘Harry Potter’ sets ever produced.
This information comes from LEGO leaker BrickTapNews, who indicates that the Ministry of Magic set is set for release on September 1. Although LEGO has yet to make an official announcement, the leaker suggests that the set could feature 3,491 pieces, over 10 minifigures, and a three-level design that replicates the famous government building from the ‘Harry Potter’ universe.
The anticipated price is expected to make it a significant collector’s item. According to the leak, the set could be priced around $450, placing it among the most expensive ‘Harry Potter’ LEGO releases to date. If this information is accurate, the Ministry of Magic would join the ranks of the franchise’s largest builds, such as Hogwarts Castle and Diagon Alley.
This potential release comes at a busy time for LEGO enthusiasts. The company has been expanding several major collections, with new sets linked to franchises like Pokémon, Fortnite, Disney, and Star Wars. Now, it seems the Wizarding World could be receiving another substantial addition.
The Ministry of Magic is one of the most recognizable locations in the ‘Harry Potter’ series. The building played a significant role throughout the books and films, particularly in the later stories when Harry and his friends became involved in the battle against Lord Voldemort. A LEGO version would allow fans to recreate scenes from the magical government headquarters, featuring its iconic offices and enchanting details.
If released, this set would rank among the largest ‘Harry Potter’ LEGO products by piece count. Currently, the record holder is the massive Hogwarts Castle set, which boasts 6,020 pieces and originally launched at a price of $470. Other large releases include the Diagon Alley set with 5,544 pieces, the Hogwarts Express Collector’s Edition with 5,129 pieces, and the Gringotts Wizarding Bank set with 4,803 pieces.
The leaked Ministry of Magic set would reportedly be smaller than those builds in size but still stand as one of the biggest Wizarding World releases LEGO has ever created. Its projected $450 price tag would also make it one of the most expensive ‘Harry Potter’ sets, comparable to the original price of Diagon Alley.
However, fans should remember that LEGO has not confirmed any of these details. Release dates, pricing, piece counts, minifigures, and the final design are all subject to change before an official announcement. Even though BrickTapNews has a track record of sharing accurate LEGO information, this leak should be regarded as unverified for the time being.
If the rumors hold true, LEGO ‘Harry Potter’ collectors may soon have another essential set to add to their collections. The Ministry of Magic has been one of the most sought-after locations from the franchise, and its release could become one of the biggest LEGO ‘Harry Potter’ launches in recent years.
