The gigantic Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle set is discounted for Black Friday

If you’ve been waiting for the Lego Black Friday deals to pick up a giant set at a discount, and you’re a big Harry Potter fan, you’re in luck, because the giant Hogwarts Castle set has been reduced at Smyths.

Normally this set costs £350, but it’s down to just £300 for Black Friday. This isn’t the first time it’s dropped to this price, but we’ve never seen it cheaper. (Not in the UK? Scroll down for deals in your region.)

According to TechRadar’s in-depth ‘Lego deals Matrix’ that’s a saving of just over 16% – that’s not huge, as we’ve seen 50% reductions on some sets, but those were on small sets, so in terms of hard cash this is the biggest Lego Harry Potter discount we’ve seen.

Today’s best Harry Potter Black Friday deals

Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle: £350 £300 at Smyths (save £50)
This is an absolutely huge Lego Harry Potter set, one that’s perfect for fans of the series (not that you’d be considering this if you’re not!), and which is designed to be more of a decorative piece rather than a play set.

This giant Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle is a huge build; it has over 6,000 pieces, four minifigures based on the Hogwarts founders, and references to all the locations from the movies and books like Hagrid’s Hut, the Whomping Willow and the Chamber of Secrets.

Given its cost and size, it’s best for older kids and adults who are fans of the series and have some serious spending money, as even with the discount, it’s a pricey set.

Interested in a Hogwarts set but don’t have loads of money to spend? This isn’t the only Lego Harry Potter set based on Hogwarts locations, and some of the other sets are on offer too. Including the following…

Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Express: £75 £56 at Smyths (save £19)
