I never expected them to put so much effort into this set, it's really great how it turned out! $45 is very steep though. Maybe if there was more depth to the platform and a fig or 2 more, it could be reasonable. That chain function though! Ingenious!
@@Brikking fr, i only consume LEGO content through the rich that can actually afford it. There's no reason this set should cost 3/4ths that of a video game. LEGO is only *really* for wealthy adults now imo I mean seriously, Minecraft killed Lego for me, I've been able to create infinitely more from a one time purchase of 30$, plastic shouldn't cost as much as it does :/
@@CheeseyStudios simple: it's Harry Potter. They have to pay the image rights both to the Rowling and to WB: but since it's targeted to collectors and speculators the price can be higher. You see the same in Star Wars sets
This set looks super clean, especially with the platform up top. It's nearly impossible to hit the wacky flair of the older sets nowadays, but the callbacks are always welcomed.
Oh man, that old set looks so rough to me! Really love the new version. The height of it all is pretty great; automatically adds a lot of playability to the set. Also helps that it looks beautiful, too. Price is kinda ridiculous, though. I see 30 euros worth in this set, tops.
It looks so awesome, ha! Belville had some crazy sets in its day, and as a parts nerd, I love the theme. The underwater castle seems to be really something special though.
When I was a kid, my mum asked me if I wanted the old version when we were in an airport toy shop - I said no because I didn't think I deserved such a "big" present outside of a special occasion like Christmas or a Birthday. I'm sure you won't be surprised to hear that it remains one of the biggest LEGO regrets of my life :')
I definitely had this set growing up, it was the only one of the Goblet of Fire ones I got I think? But like... oh man I hope I didn't get rid of it. The inflation on old Harry Potter sets is like, the single source of so much fomo anxiety for me and like, fear of not buying sets before they retire? It's a gorgeous set, and even if I'm not... the biggest fan of the brand, I love me the architecture, and love the piece usage! Great Review!
Thank you! I do really think the OG Goblet of Fire sets were really unique and special for their time, and they mostly hold up today too. I've gotta get them all back together at some point.
Hopefully it won't take too long to be discounted. It just feels so strange when you can get a large Hogwarts expansion in the same wave for only $5 more.
See, what it’s missing is the weeds. They have two locations in the scene, the arch, and the forest of seaweed. The set isn’t as sprawling as the original. It has good verticality but it feels more empty that way. If they just had a 4x6 plate on the left side with some seaweed and rock details, an extra grindylow and a clear stand to place Harry on like the Avatar sets, I think it would genuinely feel like $45. But as is it feels so wrong.
Loved the original scene, one of my favorites in the film. This was worth the wait and glad it came out to be mesmerizing to look at. The architecture is satisfying and the remastered figures (merperson) were fun. Belville🤨
I was so fortunate to find a eBay seller for the 2005 set at a very fair price a couple years ago.its so cool seeing these sets side by side! I wish I could get my hands on that Durmstrang ship
Oh my God I have that Belville Underwater Castle set and I didn't even know it! Ive had all these huge castle and translucent pieces in my collection and I had no idea where they came from until you showed that set, that's crazy
@@CheeseyStudios Yes they did, it’s one of the best Harry Potter sets they’ve released in a while; like you said all the castle sets get boring and repetitive so it’s nice to get something different!
Just got this set! Absolutely love it! Huge goblet of fire fan, and this is one of my favourite scenes. As a kid I really wanted the 2005 and I’m so glad I have this remake!
Really been enjoying your videos, especially how you highlight the differences in play. Have you ever thought about applying to LEGO as a designer? I think you’d be a great addition to any of our team(s).
Thank you! Really glad to hear you like what I've been making here. Applying to LEGO has always been at the back of my mind, but I think I'm honestly pretty happy with where I'm at right now, and I'm excited to explore the RUclips route further. I think one day I'll pursue a job at LEGO, but it's just not quite that time yet. :)
I found the 2005 set years after it released in the clearance section of a TJ Maxx, imagine my surprise when I found out it was apparently really rare and valuable 😂
krum's alternate face is so useful for turning all of the cmf series animal costumes into faceless mascots. Or for making human-animal hybrid monsters, whatever you prefer.
It seems to have quite the mouthful of a name - "6394946: STALK W. 1,5 SHAFT AND 3,2 SHAFT" xD brickset.com/parts/6394946/stalk-w-1-5-shaft-and-3-2-shaft
Thank you. I’ve been working on a Minecraft desert my own Lego Minecraft world I’ve told you about. These dead bushes are really helpful. 😁 Btw what a weird name for a Lego piece xD
Great video! I was never much into the IP sets as most of my Lego exp is from the 90's but these look nice and the remastering is quite cool. Will you do a video about the numbering system? Are those numbers chosen at random or have some meaning? Is there a set no.1??
I do wish I knew more about the numbering system, but at the very least I can confirm there are at least a few sets with the product number #1! brickset.com/sets/001-1 brickset.com/sets/1-3 brickset.com/sets/1-7/Basic-Set brickset.com/sets/1-8 brickset.com/sets/1-10 And there's even more believe it or not xD
@@CheeseyStudios oh that's nice! I saw your Mars Mission videos, I think the 90's Ice Planet 2002 sets are cool too!. I had 6898 Ice Sat-V. And one more which i dont remember.
The sets get bigger and more expensive, but I can't help but think the older one has more "magic" to it - if only because it seems like a better thing to buy a child.
If I was a HP fan, this set would be a must get for me, the modern version has quite a nice overall colour palette amongst other things, but that is of course only when not considering the price 😅
I remember wanting the original Triwizard Second Task set so badly as a kid cause you very easily got the entire gang with two neat characters included. Plus I had a boat set that would have worked nicely with this one. The new version is indeed better.
That whole 2005 wave of Harry Potter sets was pretty cool - a radical departure from the usual castle expansions! Glad we're getting that kind of variety today too, alongside the ever-popular castle sections too.
Maybe I'm crazy as a few people have said that now, but I don't think Rivendell does? I think it's just the short legs of the Hobbits that are dual-moulded.
@@CheeseyStudios Could be wrong, I vaguely remember a pic of Frodo sitting down in a bed, but they might've used bricks for the legs now that I think about it.
I was thinking... the octopus probably is an attempt to represent the giant squid that lives in the lake. It's never shown in the movies but it's mentioned and seen often in the books.
That jellyfish design also appeared in the boat mobile back from when LEGO had the license for SpongeBob, though it might have been in a slightly different hue of blue Correction, it was clear and not blue
It's quite crazy. It's especially interesting when you compare sets from the early 80's to the late 90's, and things don't change much, but the difference between the early 2000's to today is insane
younger me still loves the original but older me loves the detail in the new one. i think they know that the market for these sets has grown up and they're adjusting accordingly. unfortunately we're all still as poor as we were when we were 12 so i wont be paying $45 for this set.
There’s always been bit of a power struggle between realism and cartoonishness with these revived era sets (especially after the 2022 castle reboot) and with here with the build realism wins out, possibly for the worse this time. I wouldn’t have minded them raising the price to a round $50 and throwing in some more sea creatures and seaweed.
We get such a tease with the underwater stuff! I definitely would want to see more in the newer style, as I do think there is a lot of potential. We just didn't get nearly enough here
So no one is talking about this, but I'm kinda bothered that Krum's new shark head is like a tail too? Should just be a head and a fin like the old mould. Would except more people to complain about the accuracy to the source material.
I noticed that too when rewatching the scene, and I do feel that makes the old one more valuable. I know they used the one they did here as it's currently in production
Man the remake is so nice. But owning the original, it just has the magic for me (+ would just love to see the version of this scene with everyone in speedos) 😂
I wonder if the octopus in the original was intended to be a grindylow, I can’t think of anything else it could be and that would make its inclusion make more sense
I honestly think I’d rather get my hands on the old mer-person because it’s more unique. I feel like the new one is basically just one of the Mermaids from the pirates of the Caribbean sets.
Tbh the new set actually seems pretty big due to all the larger pieces in it. I feel like $45 isn’t too bad but that’s probably just because I’m used to the Star Wars prices lol.
That's fair 😂 There are a lot of larger pieces, and the build has some good height to it! And yes, it certainly still feels better than many similarly-priced SW sets lol
Yeah, the new one is pretty cartoony. They just reused an existing piece, whereas the 2005 one was designed specifically for Harry Potter which is pretty cool!
In my opinion this is lego directly responding to everyone saying the original set is the creepiest or one of the worst lego sets ever made, down to the similarities in the minifigs, face prints, rowboat build, and overall set design.
why the scene is not complete...?! Lafleur and her sister are missing here. At least her little sister should also be hanging under water because Harry saves her and Ron.
I think only the short legs were dual-moulded for that set unfortunately. Hopefully we see them eventually though. If they can do short legs and arms, they can do medium ones too you'd think!

"The crab is hiding a secret stash of.... cHroME KnivES!?!"
Loved that!
Ha! There's a crazy crab backstory just waiting to be written
wasn't expecting a Belville underwater castle set callout! One of my favorite sets from my childhood... glad to see it's still desired haha.

The old sets were always so much fun, packed with enjoyable and silly features like the ones you see here. Such great stuff!

Yoooo, that's epic! You'll have to put it together some time if you can find all the parts xD
I love the chain feature on the new set, it looks like an illusion when looking from the front, because you start thinking how is the chain floating
It's a really clever design - the flexibility of it too with the rubber piece is brilliant!
I always wanted the original set so I’m glad they remade it! Especially with the new animal mould!

@@CheeseyStudios Yes they did, it’s one of the best Harry Potter sets they’ve released in a while; like you said all the castle sets get boring and repetitive so it’s nice to get something different!
I wish it was twice as big, with twice as many figures. After all, there were 8 students in the actual scene.
Indeed. I'd love to see more of this underwater world!
Does anyone know why they made that circle gray piece on top of the arch movable?
Love your reviews! Thank you for including AUD prices! Aussie fans get forgotten about so often!
I gotchu ❤
Just got this set! Absolutely love it! Huge goblet of fire fan, and this is one of my favourite scenes. As a kid I really wanted the 2005 and I’m so glad I have this remake!
It's a really fun location! I hope we get a Durmstrang ship remake at some point 👀
Is it just me or are the sandgreen corner pieces from the tower new parts or did they came in other sets already?

I’m not that big of a Harry Potter fan but I love this set!

Bro, I was waiting for you to do a comparison on these. Your videos are so cinematic do you have a degree in film or some thing?
Yeah, I studied video production in college! It helps a lot with this whole RUclips thing 😂
I believe dual molded medium legs are new with the recent LOTR Rivendell set. I could be wrong though.

@@CheeseyStudios yeah! The moody set
Personally prefer the newer one but the old one still holds up and love the older ones color scheme.
I do miss the brightness of the light blue on the new model. But there's no doubt that the new model is beautiful designed!

The designer did great work with this one. I love getting more unique locations outside of Hogwarts castle itself
I am hoping this goes on 20% off like the other ~$50 retail HP sets. I think that will make it a much better value. That merperson minifig is awesome
Agreed! Hopefully it won't take too long for those discounts to happen
This video makes me nostalgic looking at that 2005 Harry Potter set
I do love the early Harry Potter sets. They're so good!
I think they may have done dual moulded legs for the mini figs in the stranger things set but I could be wrong
I'm not sure medium legs existed yet when that set was released to be fair
I think they have dual-molded mid-legs for the Rivendell set coming soon. I’m guessing that’s the first time they’ve done it?
Maybe I'm crazy as a few people have said that now, but I don't think Rivendell does? I think it's just the short legs of the Hobbits that are dual-moulded.
@@CheeseyStudios Could be wrong, I vaguely remember a pic of Frodo sitting down in a bed, but they might've used bricks for the legs now that I think about it.

Great video! When is your next Minecraft update coming out?
Thank you! New episodes are released on the first of each month.
That jellyfish design also appeared in the boat mobile back from when LEGO had the license for SpongeBob, though it might have been in a slightly different hue of blue
Correction, it was clear and not blue
Yeah, it's appeared in a few different colors. It was regular clear in that set!
Some really interesting parts in both sets
Indeed! Both are awesome in that regard.
I may get it for that shark headpiece and mouth printed head
It's so funny 😂 Curious to see how much it will cost on Bricklink

Hey Cheesey, Is the jelly fish not the same as the Sponge Bob jelly fish, i think its smaller than a chefs hat, would love to hear what you think.
Maybe Graveyard Duel comparison?
That's a good idea! I'll see what I can do
I’m glad the LEGO did a great remake of this set but, hey, did anyone notice that LEGO made a remake of the 10671 set with the 60375 set?
Oh, interesting! Those are quite similar. I'm not sure I knew either existed 😂

I feel that lol xD At least back then there were only 4-7 sets a year too, not 6-15 every six months... ripperoni

the new rivendell legs would be perfect for harry here
Yeah, just wish they were medium legs! Hopefully LEGO will make those at one point
notice that only one of those sets from the original wave has not been remade yet ... durmstrang ship next please LEGO
That would be epic. The original is one of my favorite Harry Potter sets
Unpopular opinion but I love the long hair of the characters in the Goblet of Fire lol. Especially on Harry.
It does feel more book-accurate lol
I wonder if the octopus in the original was intended to be a grindylow, I can’t think of anything else it could be and that would make its inclusion make more sense

I can respect that. I still really like the old one too.
I just bought the 2018 hogwarts castle. Do you think it was a good buy?
I think it's a great set, but I do honestly love the new microscale one better!
@@CheeseyStudios for my next set, should I buy diagon ally or micro scale hogwarts?

That's fair 😂 There are a lot of larger pieces, and the build has some good height to it! And yes, it certainly still feels better than many similarly-priced SW sets lol
Is the scorpion supposed to resemble a lobster? If so, that’s fairly clever of classic LEGO.
That would be my guess too! It's actually a surprisingly accurate shape
Love how one is retired, the other one isn't even out!!
Also the first crab is actually in cheese yellow
Only a few more days til you can get the new one :D
Lovely set indeed!
They're both pretty great!
Man, LEGO just keeps getting better!
A lot has changed since those early Harry Potter sets, that's for sure!
Still avoiding spoilers, but as this is a comparison, I will watch it when I've built the set for my self.
I know you have a pretty solid HP collection, but do you have the original set?
@@CheeseyStudios I do not not have the original set. Not yet anyway.

Plus Cedric's outfit here too, though it probably wouldn't be much different from his other tournament costumes

All good xD I wasn't sure if I had missed something because I kid you not, 4 other people commented saying the same thing lol!
@@CheeseyStudios yeah i can see why other people got confused. I didnt expect it to be mini legs
Good job
Thanks!
@@CheeseyStudios I invite you to my channel
Considering the amount of minifigures, i could have understood 40 USD
Even that would have felt much nicer, yeah.
Two videos one day!
Oh yeah! :D
Are you on of the twins from Lego masters season 2?

why the scene is not complete...?! Lafleur and her sister are missing here. At least her little sister should also be hanging under water because Harry saves her and Ron.
More figs would have been epic
What is the pricing with this set? It’s almost like it’s becoming a Star Wars set lol
I know right? 😂
Maybe you will replicate Hypixel maps in lego some day.
I'd love to do a mini Main Lobby at some point 😅
Ahahah the old minifigures’ faces are so weird. Ron looks so old
ikr
The new Lord of The Rings set has the perfect legs for Harry
Oh? Which ones do you think?
i think rivendell is the first time lego is duo-molding mid legs
I think only the short legs were dual-moulded for that set unfortunately. Hopefully we see them eventually though. If they can do short legs and arms, they can do medium ones too you'd think!
God I wish I hadn’t lost all my chrome knifes 😭

I feel like the new one is overbuilt. Probably just to justify the price too.
I do wish we had like a $20 playset this year 😪
