Ministry Munchies & The Daily Prophet Stands Reviews

Collectors

“Cornelius Fudge, the Minister for Magic, appears prominently on a banner inside the LEGO Ministry of Magic, but as a minifigure he’s apparently busy elsewhere – something a few people criticized about the big new D2C set. Now we know he isn’t far away: he’s buying a copy of... More the Daily Prophet, that ever-so-neutral and objective newspaper with a special soft spot for Harry Potter. The newsstand appears in the fifth film in the entrance hall of the Ministry, though it’s only visible during a brief camera pan.”
