Right? I wondered how they all stayed in generally good shape since they basically have a feast like every day... but then I thought about how much walking they must do to get around on a daily basis...now it all makes sense....
I’ve seen some of these 3D puzzles around stores before and never really cared about them, but after your video I’m so hyped to build one, I had no ideia it was like this!!
This isn’t a puzzle. I bought the great hall and astronomy tower 3D puzzles... they suck building. I really hated it. I bout this and it so far is a joy to build. It’s calming. I like how the puzzles look but hated the build. I love this one and love building it
There was an ad that I didn't have good music the ad that came on the RUclips video was really dumb it was something about some phone at or whatever but I was dumped this video was really cool this video is like the best video ever
I love how detailed it is and that it includes the entire castle. Hogwarts changes its appearance from movie-to-movie, so it's Interesting that it's based on Order of the Phoenix Hogwarts instead of the Hogwarts from Half-Blood Prince with the Astronomy Tower.
To be fair, legos are more abstract and harder to visualize. But, the amount of effort people are wiliing to put into to BUIDLING models will always confuse me.
My wife and I just finished ours! About 4 hours done together. So much fun and the detail included on these pieces is incredible! Well worth the $26 and we're absolutely adding Diagon Alley to this new collection 😎. Thank you Peter for the amazing video(s)!!
I bought both those puzzles when they first came out at Costco! I found it very therapeutic to do them but some parts were frustrating. I put my little funko pops from the 2020 advent calendar all around the castle lol 😊
The puzzle turned out to be so awesome! Thank you for your patience and your time to put it together for us to review. I never realized how detailed Hogwarts is......thanks again
I've seen these 3D puzzles nowadays and I didn't much care...but after this video I'm so excited !!! I'm trying to get this to be my Christmas present as soon as possible 😂
“Because... HARRY POTTER!” No explanation needed. I really love doing jigsaws, I spent most of my quarentine time doing some huge ones. Sadly, there’s no CostCo in Argentina, so it’s almost impossible to get one (and so expensive!)
Peter what's your plan with the puzzle? I cant imagine you'll have it on display given its size. Pretty sure you wont throw it away either. Dismantling it is a painful option too. What happens to it? Curious.
I have the same question. I don’t have the room to display it. I also like the look better then the puzzle on foam. Has Peter responded to the question yet?
Built the diagon alley 3d puzzle.. you are going to love building it because its interactive..all the shops come with props for the inside absolutely magical
This came out really awesome. I like building stuff and I’m sure I’ll be enjoying this. Its a perfect display, cant wait for the Diagon Alley Puzzle vid. 😄
How can I get my hands on this? Costco is not delivering outside US. Any idea where or how to purchase from here in the Philippines? And btw Sir Peter, can you share how would you display/preserve the finished 3d puzzle? More power to your channel, keep collecting and I'll keep on watching.
You can buy through a forwarding company, search for US forwarding companies. What you need to do is sign up to that company's website, then they'll give you a US address. You can purchase the item yourself and the forwarding company will receive the package and then forward it to your ph address. I haven't tried US yet so I can't recommend a company.
hey! i'm in europe, and i found this on the UK ebay, been having the same problem and looking for one ever since this video!! had to pay a little extra, but looks totally worth it!
When I saw that you uploaded this video, first I realized I was late but I was excited. I too built the 3d Hogwarts puzzle and like you said it was loads of fun just time consuming but when it was all done I was extremely happy and impressed. So much detail. I have not gotten the Express and diagon alley set but it's a must. Cant wait for your video to go up.
oh wow, I saw the thumbnail and thought "this looks cool, a miniature Hogwarts castle!" I just like miniature stuff, like scale model cars or houses, things like that
1st view, 1st like and 1st comment AGAIN!!😁😁😀😀 I was eagerly waiting for your video…. It feels good to watch your videos after a 1.5 hour test!!! I am really feeling refreshed now! Thanks for the video!!😊😊 I WANT THAT HOGWARTS MODEL SO BAD!!!😫😫
I bought both of these from Costco about a month or so ago. Just did the Hogwarts train and Diagon Alley today with my daughter. Planning to do the castle when we have more time. Going to make a Christmas village out of everything. So excited!!
ojo ojos i spent $25 in stores but its $27 on costco’s website i believe, but last time i went to costco i didn’t see it and it also isn’t on the website for me aswell so i don’t know if they’re still selling it
I got this one and the Diagon Alley one. I can not recommend them enough! I haven’t built the castle yet, but they are so detailed, durable, and the instructions are clear. I found myself giggling at how awesome the details were. You can spend $300+ on legos or get a much better version for $25! Get it if you can, fans!!
This makes me wonder between the movies, licensed merchandise, and theme park elements how the authorized design templates are shared / stored to make the level of detail consistent throughout the Wizarding World for things like the Hogwarts Express, Hogwarts Castle, wand design, etc. Has anyone ever interviewed the designers or company representatives to ask? Do they have archives or template records (physical and digital) that they need to share when a new product comes out? How closely do new product designs have to be consistent with the templates or is there any individual creativity by the designer allowed? The details on the castle puzzle brought this to mind, particularly for angles not seen in the films or at Universal, but surely there was a full-scale model to draw from that the films probably created and that the puzzle designers used? I'm curious what the process is for sharing these designs across products and years!
In Leavesden Studios (Warner Bro's) in London they have "The Harry Potter Studio Tour", where you can see props, sets and everything in between, including the real Great Hall etc. At the end of the tour they have a full-scale model of Hogwarts and the grounds, an immensely detailed and very large model. They even decorate it in different seasons, I saw it in the snow etc. It's the same model they used to film some of the arial shots such as Harry flying on Buckbeak. I believe they must have made extensive blueprints to create the model and even photographs and measurements could be made from the model itself. I hope this gives some insight and helps!
This is a weird version of the castle. It's supposed to be a version from the fifth movie given the fact that the Ravenclaw tower and bell towers are shorter as well as the fact that the Grounds tower isn't changed to a small dainty version of a bell tower in the corner and that the Defense Against the Darks Arts tower is still present. The Astronomy tower replaces the Dark tower in the 6th movie (sitting between the Ravenclaw tower and the DADA tower). The model for the 6th movie got rid of the DADA tower altogether for budget costs. But it's weird that the puzzle maker decided to compromise with the fact that they didn't have space for an Astronomy tower and just put the facade of it on the back of the DADA tower instead. It looks interesting, but that was never done in any movie version of the castle.
Unfortunately, I can't do this as much as I want to. My cat will be "exploring" the castle and next thing I will see is a deflated Hogwarts. But I really want it
My wife and I built the castle last year. It's so cool. Huge but cool. We also have the Knight Bus, the Burrow, Diagon Alley, and the Hogwarts Express.
Oh sweet Peter. watching this after last weeks lenticular puzzle. 🤣🤣 Glad to see you enjoy a puzzle experience!! This looks so fun. Fabulous video as always. 🙏🏼💕🙏🏼💕
Hi, Peter, the wife and I just purchased this online in the UK thanks to your recommendation. To go with the rest of our extensive collection. Thank you for showing this. Great vid...Keep collecting!!
I have done a lot of these 3d puzzles but not one intricate as this.......I so want this after seeing your video And to my fellow potterheads may all your Harry potter dreams come true ✨✨✨
THIS IS AMAZING HOGWARTS ARCHITECT!My whole Santa list is Harry Potter because of you I’m getting the funko pop 2020 advent calendar,3lego sets,and a slytherin build-a-bear!!🐍
Hi everyone! 😄 The total time it took to build Hogwarts was about 6 hours.
I have done one puzzle like this but it was effile tower it take 2 to 3 hours
😱
But definitely worth it!
Its mesmerizing!
Whoa!! That's a lot of time!!!😯😯
@ishaq halai yes I also want it
I love puzzles like that, I would not get up from the table until I finished it 😊
I saw the thumbnail and was like
*_Dang, no WAYYY that's a puzzle 😩_*
It’s more like a model. 😍
@@ThePotterCollector Agreed!
That is super cool I really like that model puzzle it's so cool
@@iwatchharrypotterandfantas2054 Me too!
@@-sonnenblumen- i know you havent finished it yet
Lol... the Hogwarts students must have amazing stamina with all of the walking around they have to do.
Right? I wondered how they all stayed in generally good shape since they basically have a feast like every day... but then I thought about how much walking they must do to get around on a daily basis...now it all makes sense....
They can just fly on their brooms
@@bigdaddyj452 no flying in the halls- Minerva Mcgonagall
They are not built like muggles, they are witches and wizards after all.
Saves them having to do gym class!!
I’ve seen some of these 3D puzzles around stores before and never really cared about them, but after your video I’m so hyped to build one, I had no ideia it was like this!!
Neither did I! :D
I’m very hyped too after seeing this!!
I did the knight bus once and it was so much fun!!
This isn’t a puzzle. I bought the great hall and astronomy tower 3D puzzles... they suck building. I really hated it. I bout this and it so far is a joy to build. It’s calming. I like how the puzzles look but hated the build. I love this one and love building it
The music in the background is everything.
There was an ad that I didn't have good music the ad that came on the RUclips video was really dumb it was something about some phone at or whatever but I was dumped this video was really cool this video is like the best video ever
Watching Harry Potter, while building Hogwarts
What an experience
I recommend to pop out the little pieces with a toothpick or something, it’s much easier. I’ve built several puzzles like that. 🧩 🏰
Haha that's exactly what I used when I built the Hogwarts Express 🤣
Where do you buy these cool things
Are you a Ravenclaw I'm a Hufflepuff
I used ur advice with the toothpick, it really helped thanks😃
@@iwatchharrypotterandfantas2054 I’m a Hufflepuff as well!😃
I love how detailed it is and that it includes the entire castle. Hogwarts changes its appearance from movie-to-movie, so it's Interesting that it's based on Order of the Phoenix Hogwarts instead of the Hogwarts from Half-Blood Prince with the Astronomy Tower.
Peter - I'm not really a Lego guy
Also Peter - builds a 3d puzzle
To be fair, the lego set is 300-400 dollars lol
This is different and more realistic... and also $26. :)
@@ThePotterCollector yeah Lego is overpriced
There is a difference between playing with Legos and building puzzles
To be fair, legos are more abstract and harder to visualize. But, the amount of effort people are wiliing to put into to BUIDLING models will always confuse me.
My wife and I just finished ours! About 4 hours done together. So much fun and the detail included on these pieces is incredible! Well worth the $26 and we're absolutely adding Diagon Alley to this new collection 😎. Thank you Peter for the amazing video(s)!!
A MUCH more affordable version of the Hogwarts castle compared to the Legos version.
This seems like a good thing to do while listening to the Harry Potter audiobooks
I don't like audio books I like to read it myself because the audio books ate way too fast for my tiny little brain to process what's happening
That's exactly what we're going to do 😊we are in the UK, we will be inviting Stephen Fry to help build our puzzles, 😂😂
“Your gonna need a big table”
Me: gets my kitchen table
I bought both those puzzles when they first came out at Costco! I found it very therapeutic to do them but some parts were frustrating. I put my little funko pops from the 2020 advent calendar all around the castle lol 😊
Fans: peter, how much do you like harry potter?
Peter: yes
I like Harry Potter and also Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
Peter’s reply: 9 & 3/4 or so.......
Holy cow that's a puzzle?!?! That looks so cool! The Diagon Alley one is going on my Christmas List!
With 6 hours, I think hufflepuff's gonna love doing this :D
This hufflepuff loved building this with his Ravenclaw hubby lol
love 3d puzzles -love puzzles in general
Omg I’m actually getting this for my birthday next month! It was definitely one of the things I asked for!
Hope it is bought cause after this review there might be a shortage.
vidiaparamaatmaseeker pfft for real though! My bday is next month sooo I think I’ll be okay lol
It's $33 in costco I just bought this morning
@@gloriapaschal5749 oh wow, I did mine and it was difficult but fun!
This brings back so many memories of building 3D puzzles as a kid 😍😍
I started watching his videos yesterday and now I am obsessed with them i love his attitude!!
Jesus christ, imagine walking around in a school this massive. I love 3D puzzles! They’re really good activities to help you relax.
My boyfriend bought me the Hogwarts Express 3D puzzle for my birthday last month and we thoroughly enjoyed building it!😁
That is beautiful, I’m going to go get me one.. my only problem would be, where do I put it after it’s completed lol.
SAME LOL! I ordered one online but I’ve no clue where I’m going to put it lmao
I imagine you take it apart and redo it some other time as it's a Puzzle.
I remodeled a room just to create a way to display this puzzle when I'm finished, LOL.
If you enjoyed this so much I highly suggest the new Harry Potter diagonal alley set or the giant Hogwarts
Where are those sold? I’m very interested. :)
I did the Diagon Alley puzzle by the same company. I loved putting it together! I have it displayed at our summer camp. A ton of fun.
Amazing puzzle and actually ten times cheaper than Lego and hundreds time more realistic
Wow!! I’ve never tried a 3D puzzle, but have always wanted to! I can’t wait to buy this!
I got both the Hogwarts Express/ Diagon Alley 3D set AND the Hogwarts Castle!! I just can't believe it's $26 each set! I'm so excited to finish it!
That castle sure is beautiful.
"I turned on Goblet of Fire because...Harry Potter!"
I love that😂 I watched GOF last night!
I built my last Lego set listening to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire on audiobook
The puzzle turned out to be so awesome! Thank you for your patience and your time to put it together for us to review. I never realized how detailed Hogwarts is......thanks again
I've seen these 3D puzzles nowadays and I didn't much care...but after this video I'm so excited !!! I'm trying to get this to be my Christmas present as soon as possible 😂
Wow!!! You are doing many things . Harry Potter trading cards,wands, Puzzle,lego,accio box and etc .
You are the best!!👍👍👍
Wow ...this model was really beautiful...💚 it is just wow...I am so soon...and i love your videos...keep posting...👍👍
That's awesome
Just imagine how it looks on your shelf with yellow focus lights focussing on it...🔥🔥
“Because... HARRY POTTER!” No explanation needed.
I really love doing jigsaws, I spent most of my quarentine time doing some huge ones. Sadly, there’s no CostCo in Argentina, so it’s almost impossible to get one (and so expensive!)
These 3d harry potter puzzles look great. I've started buying a few to do over Christmas! 😊
Just FYI for anyone that tried to get them when they were sold out... they're back in stock online!
This is one reason your channel is one of my favorites. Well done!
Peter what's your plan with the puzzle? I cant imagine you'll have it on display given its size. Pretty sure you wont throw it away either. Dismantling it is a painful option too. What happens to it? Curious.
X2
Same
Just what I was wondering. I wouldn’t have anywhere to display it really
Came here to ask the same question
I have the same question. I don’t have the room to display it. I also like the look better then the puzzle on foam.
Has Peter responded to the question yet?
Built the diagon alley 3d puzzle.. you are going to love building it because its interactive..all the shops come with props for the inside absolutely magical
It’s unusual for a slytherin to be this much friendly
This came out really awesome. I like building stuff and I’m sure I’ll be enjoying this. Its a perfect display, cant wait for the Diagon Alley Puzzle vid. 😄
There are other 3D puzzles too such as Gringotts Bank, The Burrow and The Hogwarts Express; if you have the space for them! 😊
This Castle 3d puzzle is amazing
How can I get my hands on this? Costco is not delivering outside US. Any idea where or how to purchase from here in the Philippines?
And btw Sir Peter, can you share how would you display/preserve the finished 3d puzzle?
