Two new LEGO Harry Potter sets are set to join Hogwarts’ latest modular range, so here’s a look at what they all look like when combined.

The LEGO Group rebooted its range of Wizarding School sets for last year’s 20th anniversary range, taking a more compact, boxy and modular approach to layout. Parts can (in most cases) be swapped between sets for whatever configuration you choose, although there are a few exceptions, and some parts are clearly meant to be specifically attached to each other.

The advent of sets including 76386 Hogwarts: Polyjuice Potion Mistake and 76389 Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets in 2021 also marked the end of Hogwarts’ previous system, which operated from 2018 to 2020. Any hope of a return to this format has been wiped out when 76398 Hogwarts Hospital Wing debuted earlier this year, continuing the new approach and sealing the fate of the old layout.

We’ve already explored how 76398 Hogwarts Hospital Wing fits in with the rest of last year’s sets, but YouTuber SwiftBricks has now followed by also adding the two new additions from this summer. These are 76401 Hogwarts Courtyard: Sirius’s Rescue and 76402 Hogwarts: Dumbledore’s Office, both of which are slated to arrive June 1 in the UK and Europe, and June 19 in the US.

They also both follow the same structure as the more recent Hogwarts sets, allowing them to slip right into the increasingly sprawling layout created by combining all the designs so far. The LEGO Group offers a suggestion for how the sets could be combined in the back of new product instruction manuals, and it’s this layout that SwiftBricks followed in the video above.

As the YouTuber points out, there’s a jarring difference in the window lattice elements used between the models — some are brown, some are gold, and some are still white — which creates a weird inconsistency, but painted can – be a picture of Hogwarts added over time. The other thing to keep in mind with a full layout like this, though – which omits even one set, 76395 Hogwarts: First Flying Lesson – is how much space it takes up.

“To be honest, I won’t post it like that,” SwiftBricks says. “I just don’t have the space for it. I feel like I’ll probably post it as separate sets for now, because the combination really doesn’t impress me that much. Of course, the YouTuber only tried one particular configuration of the seven different sets, so your mileage may vary when you come to combine them yourself.

76401 Hogwarts Yard: The Rescue of Sirius and 76402 Hogwarts: Dumbledore’s Office will hit shelves next month, while the rest of the current Hogwarts range is available to buy on LEGO.com now. You can check out our review of the latest installment, 76398 Hogwarts Hospital Wing, by clicking here.
