Little Surprises
on September 10, 2023
Posted by: LordPunctual011
It took me two days to build, but it was so worth it. I can't wait to set it up with my other diagon alley buildings. My favorite part are the little surprises and such hidden throughout the set.
This is a fantastic set. Looks amazing BUT they put the mine set underneath it which was completely unnecessary. It looks great but what if you want to attach it to the rest of Diagon alley? You can’t unless you take the building off and then you have a bunch of bricks. If displaying alone then it’s wonderful, if you plan to display with the Diagon alley set then it’s obscenely overpriced
Cool set overall. Good build experience. Major issue was with the manufacturing process specifically packing. I had 6 total bags that came with openings in them. Spilled pieces throughout the box. I have 50+ lego sets and I would say the way this was packed was the worst to date.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set is awesome being a part of the Diagon alley set. All of it features made it pop out. This Lego set is great
I have been collecting Harry Potter LEGO’s since 2007 and I can remember my excitement when the first 2011 Gringotts came out. It was one of my favorite buildings from the movies and LEGO making it into a model was a dream come true. Fast forward to 2020 when Diagon Alley came out, I was surprised not to see Gringotts there but I figured that it would come out later so I patiently waited. Well…IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT! This set is fantastic! When I first saw pictures of this set I knew I had to get it immediately. After building it, it still amazes me how LEGO was able to make an underground vault system that is also able to hold up another building. The interior is amazing and I really loved to see the marble printed pieces for the columns. Now, the vault system was what surprised me most. It was totally unexpected and really made this set whole. They even give you all three of the vaults from the major plot points in the movies. This set is timeless and definitely is one of my favorites from LEGO.
Now, the only thing that bothered me about this set is the lovely sticker on the front that says “Gringot ts Bank”. My question is, does this drive anyone else nuts or is it just me. I tried putting the stickers as close as possible, which made it better, but I am still bothered by the gap. I don’t know if there just wasn't any other option but if possible LEGO, can we make sure single words aren't split up on different stickers for future sets. Otherwise, this set is perfect from the building and to the price! One of the best sets LEGO has ever made and definitely is worth the purchase. Great job designers and can’t wait to see what is released in the future! Would love to see a Collectors edition Chamber of Secrets or Knight Bus one day! Till then, back to waiting!
It’s finally here, the set that we have all been waiting for. This set is fantastic, and looks great. I do recommend to take your time, and do not rush. The mini figure selection is great, and I do like the fact you get five goblins “ plus one more if you got the GWP”. Only really big complaint that I do have is the stickers. There are a lot, and don’t like how the used of stickers as windows on the out side windows. Also the stickers that spell Gringotts in the front are not together. Other than that this set is amazing. You can not have a Diagon Alley without Gringotts, so I suggest you get both.
