There are some smaller models that represent the tables with ice decoration as in the Goblet of Fire. There is a warming fire by the wall, but otherwise, the theme is snowcovered, with several icicles. The main feature is a rotating floor, which when turned rotate four small plates which each again fit a dancing couple. The first section we get to build is for the dancing scene at the Yule ball from the Goblet of Fire. In particular the transparent sticker with the mermaid caught my eye (and will be discussed later). The stickers are packed with the manual in plastic, as what has becoming normal for larger sets, reducing the risk of them being squeezed. Inside the box you will find six numbered bags with parts and a couple of loose octagon plates. The back, as usual, shows the details of individual rooms and close-up photos of the various play features. With the falling snow, and Yule ball decorations shown at the base of the tower, it makes it look christmassy. The only reason I can think of is to better show the finished model on the front. What is slightly unique is the shape though. Looking at the box, it has the same colour scheme as the rest of the 2019 sets. But as the set has all the minifigures dressed up for the Yule ball, I thought I better get it done in time for Christmas. The whole set grew on me, realising you got a number of new rooms: Prefects bathroom, Madeye Moody’s classroom, and the hospital. So when it eventually went on sale, I bought it immediately. When the Clock tower set came out mid year, I planned to skip it, but quite wanted the figures.
