Review : LEGO Harry Potter 40770 Hogwarts Castle: Room of Requirement

Today we quickly take a look at the contents of the LEGO Harry Potter set Hogwarts Castle: 40770 Room of Requirement, a small box of 202 pieces which will be offered for purchases of €130 or more on the official online store from September 1 to 7, 2025.

This derivative product is directly inspired by the film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2) during which the Room of Requirement makes its final appearances before being finally destroyed by Fyremon. The LEGO construction therefore features the hanging hammocks as well as the Neville Longbottom minifigure.

It's planned from the start, this small construction folds in on itself to then slide into the foundations of the construction of the LEGO Harry Potter set 76454 Hogwarts Castle: The Main Tower (€249,99). Even though you will have to choose between the Room of Flying Keys included in the set in question and the Room of Requirement available in this small set because the available niche can only accommodate one module of your choice, the most demanding collectors will undoubtedly find it difficult to ignore this small set which is part of the current ecosystem around the overall Hogwarts playset.

This product therefore takes up the concept already developed from other boxes in the LEGO Harry Potter range, such as the references 76431 Hogwarts Castle: Potions Class, 76442 Hogwarts Castle: Charms Class, 76441 Hogwarts Castle: Dueling Club which are designed to be slid into the niches or spaces provided in the set 76435 Hogwarts Castle: The Great Hall or in one of the tower levels of the set 76447 Hogwarts Castle: Flying Lessons.

As is often the case, you have to deal with a few large stickers here, which is why this micro Room of Requirement is a little more detailed than the one in the set. 75966 Hogwarts Room of Requirement (2020) comes to life. The bravest will eventually try to combine this new feature with the construction of the set 76413 Hogwarts: Room of Requirements (587 pieces - €49.99) to obtain a slightly more substantial diorama around the subject covered.

The most observant will have understood that the Neville Longbottom figurine provided in this small box is not new, it uses the torso with a gray vest belonging to Aunt May and available since August 1, 2025 in the LEGO Marvel set 76321 Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock Subway Train SceneThe character's head is logically the one already delivered since June 1st in the LEGO Harry Potter set. 76449 Chomping Monster Book of Monsters (€59,99). LEGO didn't really put any effort into the pattern of the shirt and vest, it's far from matching the outfit seen on screen.

Some might have preferred to be able to buy this new box directly without having to spend €130 on products sold at their public prices on the official online store. They will be able to quickly do so via the secondary market, but it will probably be necessary to pay several dozen euros to obtain a copy of this product.

It is up to each person to assess the interest of this small promotional product which could just as easily have been sold for around twenty euros, the purchase of the LEGO Harry Potter set. 76457 Hogsmeade Village Collector's Edition (3228 pieces - €379,99) from its launch on September 1st and at full price will allow you to obtain it.

Note: The product shown here, provided by LEGO, is as usual involved. Deadline fixed at September 8, 2025 at 23:59 p.m. Simply post a comment below the article to participate.
