I just recently had the mother of all lego purchases on ebay. This guy was selling 35 lego harry potter sets from 2001-2007. I ended up winning the auction for $900 USD and am currently selling all the duplicates (14 sets) for sets I already owned. Based on current bricklink prices, selling all those duplicates should total around $975, meaning I basically just got 21 new sets for my collection while making 75 bucks. Big W, I will be telling my grandkids about it someday.
This was such a fun watch! I did not know the whole story behind the Collector's Edition Hogwarts Express, and that was too awesome to hear about - well played! 😂 I'm so glad LEGO Harry Potter has been around for so long, and that it's given so many of us these memories.
This is quite possibly the largest HollyOnFilm lore drop we’ve ever gotten. If someone were to (hypothetically) draw up a map of the complete HollyOnFilm lore timeline, I would be sure to direct them toward this video.
Well Holly, your channel is the first one I come to for LEGO Harry Potter content. I have only been collecting for a year. It began last November when I was Christmas shopping for my kids and saw the Attack on the Burrow set at a local Target store. 😂 In this short time, I have acquired over 100 sets. Most of my collection is Harry Potter but some other ones as well (Star Wars & other Disney themed sets). Despite your hardships, I admire your strength to overcome and persevere. In my 40 years on this planet, I have learned a few things. The most important one being that it’s okay to fail. It’s going to happen in life. Whether it be due to our own choices or choices of others. What is not okay is to quit. You, ma’am, are not a quitter 🤗 Keep up the wonderful work! I look forward to your next video. Cheers from 🇺🇸
I was just wondering if you had a full collection of Harry Potter vid... And now you do 😂 My 9yr old Daughter got me the Hospital Wing for my Birthday this year and I fell in love with Lego all over again. I went online and got 6 more sets, All thanks to Your reviews and your positivity!! Thank you Holly for reinspiring my love of legos ❤ (And my love of Harry Potter 😂)
I enjoyed this deep dive into your collection and loved the adorable picture you shared of yourself. As a 58yr. old lover of H. P. Lego I feel the same joy as you do from these sets. ♥️ It’s fun to watch you express how I feel.
Love this video! I’ve been there from the beginning when your channel boomed with the revival of Harry Potter! It was nice to see you go through the same feelings with legoharrypotterfatigue as I did this year… Can’t wait to see what the future for your channel holds!
An amazing experience im glad you doing better now heartbreaks are horrible and I went through it as well! I’m glad LEGO helped you in that time as for me it was religion that got me through it! You are an amazing person and you deserve my sub and like☺️
2007 Hogwarts was my first Harry Potter lego set as well! But it was the set that brought me out of my dark ages, and I've collected most of the Harry Potter lego ever since. Have loved watching your lego journey over the years, keep up the great content 😀
What a saga! You have a wonderful collection and I really enjoyed your stories! I have always enjoyed your commentary and your unabashed approach. Congratulations on all your personal and professional success!
4:47 - Omg, such a cute picture of you! It was fun hearing about all the stories behind the different sets your relatives bought for you. I imagine your mom was exasperated at times - I know mine was! 🤣 Speaking of your parents though, do you think they'd ever be interested in doing a cameo? 16:38 - Good grief, that was a year ago already?! 😲 My Top 5 Favorite HP Sets are: 5. Number 4 Privet Drive (2020) - So accurate to the movies and lots of fun play features! 4. The Black Lake (2023) - Beautiful remake of a set I always wanted! 3. Hagrid's Hut (2019) - Like you said, very accurate and thorough recreation of my favorite HP movie! 2. Hogsmeade Village Visit (2021) - Beautiful for display, and lots of interesting minifigures! 1. The Burrow (2010) - The only pre-2018 set I wanted badly enough to cough up the cash for. Phenomenal minifigures, lots of great accessories, and just a cosy recreation of the Weasley home!
3:13 your nan is a friggen legend. My grandparents (rest their souls) wouldnt even leave their town to get xmas gifts let alone jump through all those hoops!
Congratulations on all your milestones. I too have fallen out of love with Harry Potter. However, I do cherish the sets I own and all the memories that come with collecting. 💖
That's quite the collection there 😄Those earlier sets take me back especially with that poster thing you'd get with the instructions showcasing what else you could get. Great video, that Diagon Alley set though.
I enjoy watching. I have every HP set from 2001-2024 except the motorized trains and the UCS train. Can't wait for the new waves. Just picked up the 2024 burrow.
I finally gathered all the parts for the LEGO Store Exclusive build, The Ford Anglia (Bricklink HPFORDANG) It's satisfying to have something hard to find. I know you were going to collect all the store builds, did you ever manage to get them?
My first Harry Potter LEGO set was Quality Quidditch Supplies. It has a yellow skinned Draco Malfoy. Then my second was the first Dumbledore’s Office. My third was the Hogwarts based on Prisoner of Azkaban (with flesh tone minifigures).
That´s an amazing collection. I´ve begun my own path this year, 2024, and I'm going to collect the new Hogwarts Castle. I bought some recent sets, because old sets are so expensive, for example Wizard's Chess is almost 160 dollars, so I better wait for a new version.
Awesome video Great to know the history of your channel and Lego collection. I think every Lego RUclipsr should make a similar video Maybe you should make a part 2 on hollyonair My most sentimental sets are the first ones I had growing up I got the Hogwarts bedroom promo sent to me by mistake on bricklink
Love this! I have a lot from the OG 2001 wave of Harry Potter sets for the Sorcerer's Stone and Chamber of Secrets. If I saw a lot for 200 AUD of a bunch of the older waves I know I'd be straight on it! I've just rediscovered my collection in my attic and am slowly taking them out and building them all again. It's one of the things that inspired me to start a RUclips channel. I've just uploaded a build video for the 2001 Forbidden Corridor if anyone is interested in revisiting that magical set 🙂
...1400NZD? You actually gave 786€ for the UCS Hogwarts Express? Yeah. I wouldn't get rid of it either. I would keep it to remind me to never do such a silly thing again 😅 (Or I'd wait until it retired and the price rises until I can get those 786€+shipping back. Even if the video made you the money back, which I hope it did ahahahah) I do want to collect all Harry Potter sets eventually too, but I haven't made that a priority. I'm currently sitting at 63% but I've cleared most of the big (more expensive sets), so I don't feel so much pressure to get the rest as the ones missing are mostly the cheaper ones. And there are some I'm still considering if I'll get them at all, like the in-store promos which I don't really care for.
Many poeple battles with that vicious deseases-severe depresion and anxiety on every day basis,unfortunately...We need more focus on menthal health awareness to support those people in their struggle with that health problems ...
Me at 3 years old: Mom, can I please have a Technic yellow crane? Mom *thinks I'm going to grow up and give up toys in like 5 years: no. And it's for the boys. Go play with those pink Barbie dad got you. Me: *develops aversion to all things pink and dolls. Me at 9 years old: *somehow successfully talks her round into buying Lego Fire House for a birthday. Me at 10th birthday: *mission failed, gets Monopoly for the same price as the Police station. 2005 yellow crane: *mission failed as well. 🎉 Me in 2008: hey, mom, can I please have at least this tiny Quidditch Lego set? Mom: *turns around and leaves the store. *Fast forward 12 years *Me with a stipend and a Hogwarts Express: lmao. Mom: *surprised Pikachu face. Me: *buys a 2005 Yellow crane in a perfect condition. 🎉 Me: thanks mom, for not buying, I've got new and improved versions of Lego. Oh, and see that Hot Toy? You wanted me to play with Barbie, here you go, but not like you thought. 😂🎉
That story about the ambassador thing. im so amazed how selfish people are. This was a major milestone for you and someone chose to be negative; you summed it up as i was thinking it "Why can't people be happy for you". Weird! Obviously we dont want to start a witch hunt though but thank you for sharing. I can imagine there was some major imposter syndrome!
Amazing content! So glad I found you! I love your collection!! ❤ You got a like and a follow out of me! I'm excited to see what content you post for the 7 upcoming sets this year!
What’s the most sentimental set in your collection?
The daily bugle for sure.She’s such a beauty🤩
The age of ultron avengers tower last gift I got from my grandma before she passed away
Prob the Metalbeards ship... I just love it so much and had wanted to get it for so long. That or the 89 Batmobile...
The Hobbit the Unexpected Journey. One of my first sets i ever built.
Benny’s Spaceship from Lego Movie is my favorite lego set of all time. The Batmobile from Lego Batman Movie is number 2. 😂

Loving this Holly History Class!
I always love seeing people who have these themes, too. I thought I was the only person who obsessed over these sets this hard.
this video was super cool! you said there was a lot more you could talk about so any chance of a part 2?

Shout out to Nan for being the reason this channel exists
Thanks for your reviews! And good luck in future!
Curious which are the HP sets that you _don't_ have?
Thank you for sharing your passion. You are doing great.

great journey. I'm with you since 2020.

Great video, and well done for highlighting mental health ❤👏
I have every play-scale LEGO Harry Potter set from 2018-2021. I don’t have all the promos, but I do have Diagon Alley.
Awesome video
Great to know the history of your channel and Lego collection. I think every Lego RUclipsr should make a similar video
Maybe you should make a part 2 on hollyonair

Shame on A for getting jealous and not supporting you getting the HP sets! Keep up the good work 💪

I got my first Lego Harry Potter set in 2004 with it being the Draco Buckbeak set
How many Harry Potter sets do you have?
At this current point after clearing some I didn't love out, around 90. However I'm on the quest to get every single minifigure
"I decided to get a few more things" Holly said calmly.
Love Lego Harry Potter
Makes video....
Holly: I dont need to get all of them.
LEGO: Heres the 2024 sets, your move!
Tbh it's a bummer we got almost ní HP lego for 5-6 movie between 2007-2009.
...1400NZD? You actually gave 786€ for the UCS Hogwarts Express?
Yeah. I wouldn't get rid of it either. I would keep it to remind me to never do such a silly thing again 😅 (Or I'd wait until it retired and the price rises until I can get those 786€+shipping back. Even if the video made you the money back, which I hope it did ahahahah)

I heard a million views only earns you about $50 bucks now.. But obviously sponsers, merch etc would earn you alot more.

Why did you get kicked out?
She committed heinous warcrimes that would make Emperor Palpatine disgusted.
Yeah, I'm going to need some elaboration on that too.
you will need a second house for future lego purchases XD
😮
Guys, I think she likes LEGO Harry Potter.
Kinda crazy you had your own Kanye West moment

End of an era....
Was never into Harry potter

Brother I know you’re in Australia but you can’t be uploading this late at night lol
I believe she's a girl?
I know it’s criminal, back to regular uploading times next I promise
@@Keepinitreel108She is. It's just a saying that's becoming more popular like calling everyone "dude" or "guys".
