Unboxing the LEGO BrickHeadz 40791 The Goblet of Fire™ Figures reveals a detailed collection of characters from the Triwizard Tournament. This 671-piece set brings us Harry Potter, Fleur Delacour, Viktor Krum, Cedric Diggory, and the fearsome Hungarian Horntail, each standing roughly 3 inches (7.6 cm) tall. The box art gives a glimpse into the diverse building techniques ahead.
Turning the box, we see clever sub-assemblies for Harry and the Horntail, hinting at slight posing options. Note the printed elements that add character without relying on stickers. It's a great example of how simple elements can achieve complex visual storytelling.
Here they stand, ready for the First Task! Each character, from Harry's signature glasses to Fleur's elegant hair, uses ingenious SNOT techniques for head and hair shaping. The Hungarian Horntail, a magnificent beast, uses a mix of plates and slopes to capture its formidable presence.
The costumes are immediately recognizable, thanks to clever use of tiles and printed elements. Harry's Gryffindor robes, Viktor's Durmstrang uniform, and Cedric's Hufflepuff attire all benefit from subtle greebling and color blocking. Even Fleur's Beauxbatons uniform, with its light blue accents, is distinctly rendered.
Harry’s iconic round glasses are a great example of NPU, using existing elements for a character-defining feature. His broomstick, a simple sub-assembly, adds to the dynamic pose. The removable baseplate allows for versatile display options or even integrating him into a larger MOC.
This Horntail build is a masterclass in shaping a creature within the BrickHeadz template. The varied tan and brown plates create texture, while the articulated wings use clever connections for dynamic posing. The SNOT work on the face captures its fierce gaze and open maw perfectly.
Placed on a warm, wooden surface, the figures show their adaptability to various display environments. The strong clutch power of their baseplates ensures stability. Even among other artifacts, their blocky charm holds its own, proving that these builds are more than just toys.
Here we see a glimpse into the builder's world, with some elements removed. Notice the various plates and tiles that make up the unique BrickHeadz 'skin.' It highlights the modular design and the potential for MOCers to integrate these characters into their own creations.
Even in a tighter composition, the distinct personalities of Harry and the Horntail shine through. The scale difference is effectively conveyed through piece count and shaping. The way the Horntail's wings are angled uses simple hinge bricks for maximum impact.
This Hungarian Horntail isn't just a sidekick; it's a display centerpiece on its own. The clever use of varied slopes and curves defines its reptilian form. It commands attention, a testament to how well the BrickHeadz format adapts beyond humanoid figures, adding a powerful presence to any collection.
