Notes[]

  • This is the second LEGO Visual Dictionary, the first being 2853508 LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary.
  • It includes an exclusive Harry Potter minifigure dressed in his Yule Ball outfit from Goblet of Fire.
  • ISBN 13: 9780756682576
  • ISBN 10: 0756682576
  • This book actually has some story-related errors, such as referring to Aragog the Acromantula as being a female, when in the books he is male and mentions having a wife.
  • Another error states that the Harry and Viktor minifigures from 4762 Rescue From The Merpeople were the first to have hips colored differently from their legs to represent swimming trunks. However, a Town minifigure from 1989 used this technique to show a swimsuit, followed by another in 1992.
