New in the LEGO Harry Potter range: was it better before?

Just for fun, here's what to compare three of the LEGO Harry Potter sets announced yesterday with references on the same theme or almost already marketed in the past: on the one hand, the new products for 2020 75967 Forbidden Forest: Umbridge's Encounter (253 pieces - 29.99 €), 75968 4 Privet Drive (797 pieces - 74.99 €) and 75980 Attack on The Burrow (1047 pieces - 109.99 €) and the other sets 4865 The Forbidden Forest (2011 - 64 pieces), 4728 Escape from Privet Drive (2002 - 278 pieces) and 4840 The Burrow (2010 - 568 pieces).

If most of the minifigs delivered in the boxes sold since the switch to flesh color can easily compare with those created over the past three years as part of the reboot of the Harry Potter range, we can especially measure here the progress made by the designers when it comes to the constructions that accompany the different characters, thanks in particular to the arrival of new pieces, new colors and the implementation of ever more creative techniques, not to mention the fact that the 2020 versions contain much more elements than the sets dating from the early or mid-2000s.

The fact remains that it is often difficult to struggle with nostalgia or childhood memories and that some fans will continue to prefer the sets of their youth to the current reissues. In any case, those who missed or did not know the original sets have in my opinion no regrets to have and those who have played a lot in the past with the oldest references of the range do not will probably not hesitate for long before deciding to invest in these new versions to complete their collections.

If you are a fan of the Harry Potter universe who was able to access the first official LEGO sets on this theme, I am curious to hear your thoughts on the evolution of products derived from the saga. Do not hesitate to express yourself in the comments.
