LEGO Harry Potter 75956 Quidditch Match

Product Information

The seven-book Harry Potter series has a single prominent Asian character. This character is named "Cho Chang."" Sure, but users shouldn’t get touchy when other users judge this a topic worth discussing when relevant. I can find three different uniform styles. The earlier design did have everyone wearing white pants. The other two had charcoal grey pants. Both of these uniforms were only featured in Year 6. One was for tryouts, and the other for games. Chang's design looks like it's based on the latter. I think the dark-blue legs are meant to represent the half-cape that hangs from the jersey. Since the Diagon Alley set includes the twins' shop, this is the uniform style that's accurate to that time, but it should never have white pants. Also, it appears this uniform style is only available for the two neglected Houses. The other two got multiple uniform styles previously, so they probably weren't as high a priority for the Diagon Alley set. Accessory elements include a chest, 2 wands, 4 brooms, Quaffle, Golden Snitch™, bat, 2 Bludgers, trophy, megaphone and scoreboard. Thinking of people of Asian descent I know: yeah, they tend to have traditionally Asian last names. It's not uncommon that they have a traditionally Western first name like "Mike" or "Steve," but it's not crazy to bump into a traditionally Asian first name. (Come to think of it, my nieces and nephew have an Indian father, and so, yeah, they all have traditionally Indian first names. They have a Portuguese last name, but I recollect that's driven by Portuguese influence in that part of India.)

The LEGO Harry Potter set features Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy, Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang LEGO Harry Potter minifigures, plus 10 extra heads (6 different skin tones) and 10 extra hairstyles to create unique players. The box also contains equipment to set up 3 different Quidditch games: shoot the Quaffle through the goal hoops, launch the bludgers at the beater and catch the Golden Snitch. Hogwart's Legacy has been a fantastic success, even though a very small, but vocal, minority demanded a boycott." Young witches and wizards aged 7 and up with a passion for Harry Potter™ will be captivated by this magical airborne playset, which features famous characters and locations from the movies.Nowhere in my comments did I demand users stop purchasing merchandise deriving from Rowling’s properties. To celebrate 20 years of magic with LEGO® Harry Potter™, the set includes an exclusive, golden Professor Quirrell minifigure and 2 random wizard card tiles for kids to collect (16 in total).

None of the current minfigs look truly accurate to anything. You'd need dual-molded legs for everyone, with shin guards in brown. At least some positions would need dual-molded arms, with forearm guards in brown. You'd need a cloaked torso like this, with a cloth skirt to form the lower half of the cape. The Keeper would need upper chest pads and helmet. This toy is one of a series of authentically detailed modular sets that kids can build, combine and rearrange to create their own Hogwarts™ Castle model. No threat intended. Just observing that society is generally trending towards a direction that disagrees with Rowling’s viewpoints; this is a conversation many communities will need to have eventually. I'm going to make a completely neutral and objectively true observation that's directly relevant to the set, without commenting on anyone's political views, the actions that those views lead them to take, or any form of harm that may or may not come to others as a result. On top of that, I promise it isn't about transphobia in any way, shape, or form. That should be fine, right? All right. Here it is: Kids use 3 long, transparent levers to play out the famous flying-lesson scene and enjoy endless other airborne adventures, including Quidditch™ practice.Includes Neville Longbottom™, Draco Malfoy™ and Madam Hooch minifigures, and 5 buildable, rearrangeable modules, including a Quidditch™ trophy room and equipment storage room. My comment was in reply to users complaining that politics were being discussed in relation to their hobby. I pointed out their hobby doesn’t exist in a vacuum.

Chang" is a fairly common Asian name, though. I'm not sure about "Cho" as a first name. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chang_(surname) No, it does. While a 2-piece broom may not be the answer, this broom design looks really bad. The only brooms I've seen that are that shape have been standing upright in a broom closet for decades. Help Hermione cast a spell on Professor Snape™ using the pop-up fire function on the Slytherin™ house tower.

Minifigure

Includes 6 minifigures: Harry Potter™, Hermione Granger™, Severus Snape™, Oliver Wood, Lucian Bole and Marcus Flint. If you don't want to buy it then fine, but stop demanding others do the same, particularly with your thinly veiled threats ("catches up with you eventually").

Anyways, there's actually one option to make matching uniforms for all four Houses. The new banner sets all include three different torso designs. The sweater is the same style they wear under this uniform. Pair it with a cape to represent the jersey that's worn over the sweater, and everybody can finally match. A green 4x4 round plate occupies the middle, rotating on a white 2x2 plate with Technic pin. Cho and the Snitch are connected using trans-clear aerials, so appear to fly in circles as the plate is turned underneath. This function is quite satisfying and I am pleased to see the Golden Snitch in a polybag, although there are very few options for posing the minifigure attached to the aerial. Cho plays as Seeker for Ravenclaw, chasing the Golden Snitch whenever it appears, often high above the Quidditch pitch. Microscale and minifigure-scale are therefore combined here, similar to the wonderful 30652 Doctor Strange's Interdimensional Portal. Forced perspective is unusual in official sets and I think the Marvel polybag is more successful, but this example is fun too. LEGO® building kits fulfil strict industry quality standards to ensure they are consistent, compatible and connect and pull apart perfectly every time – and it’s been that way since 1958.

Polybags are always a difficult prospect, given the severe limitations surrounding the number of pieces. However, such challenges often trigger creative solutions and 30651 Quidditch Practice encapsulates this ingenuity. Combining microscale with minifigure-scale is clever and I think this example is appealing, especially given the detail on the tiny Quidditch pitch. So, yeah, Cho could have just been called "Mary Smith" and still be Asian and that'd be normal. Or she could be Cho Chang and that'd also be normal. Or Mary Chang.
