LEGO reveals LEGO Harry Potter 76437 The Burrow – Collector’s Edition, the next adult-targeting set in the Harry Potter series [News]

Although it likely falls foul of a few OSHA or health & safety regulations, it can’t be denied that the Burrow – home of the Weasleys in the Harry Potter books and movies – leaves a lasting impression with its ramshackle vibe. Having been in a handful of playsets, LEGO is now seeing fit to release an upgraded version of this rickety residence. 76437 The Burrow – Collector’s Edition will hit shelves just in time for Back to Hogwarts day, i.e. this September 1st, for US $259.99 | CAN $339.99 | UK £219.99. That price nets you the 2,405 pieces required to build the Burrow, but between its release and September 10 it will also qualify LEGO Insiders for some additional gifts with purchase (GWPs). Chief among these is 40695 Borgin and Burkes: Floo Network, which includes a Lucius Malfoy figure and is available if you spend US $130 | CAN $TBD | UK £120 or more.

The long leafy sprouts on the head use the new frond element while the feet and hands are small branches arranged just right… and that poutty face…

Here’s another view of the little mandrake just waking up and stretching out to the sunlight.
