Professor Sybill Trelawney

I love that LEGO went the extra mile with this accessory – they could've easily made a single mould and they would still be celebrated by all the tea fans out there, but the fact that they mad two distinct parts for the combo makes me really happy. I also love the printing on the saucer. Professor Trelawney is one of the rarer minifigs in the series (2 per box), so these tea cups won't come cheap, but they're such a remarkable accessory and I really hope to see them in other forms. Overall, really glad to have Trelawney in the series, especially since her only other minifigure costs something like $60 on Bricklink. Great win for the fans. more less

As I look over all of these fantastic figures, I find myself asking the question “Why is Voldemort, the only character depicted without a nose in the movies, the only figure with nostrils printed on his head?" With only one figure per box, and two characters incorporated in that figure, Percival Graves/ Gellert Grindelwald will be the greatest challenge for serious collectors. You can find two series of the Harry Potter specific figures in every box, but the Fantastic Beasts figures are harder too complete. more less

The character wears a pair of round glasses and a sand green dress with dark tan highlights. I like the tassels on the lower half of the dress but was disappointed to find that this figure, like Lord Voldemort, lacks back printing. In addition, Professor Trelawney does not have an alternative expression on the other side of her head which feels like a missed opportunity, especially given her tendency to enter trances! more less

Other than the distribution ratio of the minifigures, I'm very satisfied with the variety of characters that we get in this set. Most of them don't appear in the standard system sets so just them being in random packs makes them more sought after. This is the second Collectible Minifigures set that LEGO has released to include a “chase" minifigure and it doesn't look to be stopping anytime soon so we'll just have to get used to seeing more of them in future sets. more less

LEGO has done an excellent job with this series, filling in many gaps and bringing new life to many woefully outdated characters. The multitude of new elements is in keeping with the traditional CMF series, and the detail on the characters is excellent. We didn't notice any of the plastic quality issues that have sometimes plagued CMFs, which is a refreshing turn. more less
