Harry Potter Lego Review 2010: Set 4736 Freeing Dobby

The Harry Potter Lego set, Freeing Dobby is part of Lego's 2010 wave of Harry Potter sets, the first from this licence in five years. This set is the smallest of the sets in this wave and is a re-release of the Chamber Of Secrets set called Dobby's Release (set 4731) which came out in 2002.

The latest version includes Dobby the house elf and Lucius Malfoy, both of whom were in the earlier version, and adds a generic Harry Potter figure. The latest versions of the Dobby and Lucius minifigures are definite improvements, particularly Dobby. Like most characters that have abnormally shaped heads Lego had previously created them as moulds only, with none of the facial features painted in (Yoda is another famous example).

This time around Dobby has painted eyes, and it makes a huge difference. Now he looks more like his movie counterpart than a generic elf. Malfoy also has changes on his headpiece, with a regular painted face on one side and a death eater's mask on the other. Both heads are flesh colored as is standard in Lego sets these days.

The Harry Potter figure is in his usual Hogwarts uniform but with printing on both sides of the torso. He has a fairly young looking face (this is from Chamber of Secrets after all) with an angry/determined expression one side and happy Harry on the other.

The rest of the set is fairly standard. The previous release had more detail in the small building that accompanied the figures and the one offered her is fairly bland. There is an action feature that propels Lucius forward. Its nothing special but might appeal to kids briefly.

Overall it's a cute set and worth purchasing if only for the unique figures, notably the updated Dobby and Lucius Malfoy minifigs and the double sided Hogwarts uniform.

Play consists of advancing a piece diagonally forward to an adjoining square, the goal being to jump and thus capture each of an opponent's pieces until all are removed and victory is declared. When a piece reaches the final (king) row, it is crowned with a piece of the same color and can begin to move in any direction. The game is ended when either of the players has lost all his men, or cannot move them. Similar games have been played in various cultures and in times extending back to antiquity.
