Cedric Diggory

Set Review - #40791-1: The Goblet of Fire™ Figures - Brickheadz

I grabbed another Harry Potter Brickheadz set recently. This one is #40791-1: The Goblet of Fire™ Figures which depicts the characters from the book and movie of the same name. This set was released on 1 September 2025 and retails for $49.99. It contains 671 pieces which works out to $0.075 per piece. $10 per character seems a bit steep to me, but all the sets have been going up in price so our only other option is to stop buying them. This one has yet another Harry Potter Brickheadz and another Cedric Diggory as well. New to the bunch is Fleur Delacour and Viktor Krum. You also get a representation of the Hungarian Horntail.

The box is similar to most Brickheadz boxes with the characters shown on the front and the back.

Okay… it’s a terrible picture. I admit it. My build time has decreased so I used some time waiting in my (parked) car to start this one. The set contains six numbered parts bags and the instructions are in a paper envelope.

There are five instruction booklets with one bag per character except for the Hungarian Horntail which uses bags two and three. Bag one contains a brick separator.

Bag one builds Harry in his Triwizard Tournament attire. He has a wand and his broom. Nothing overly special for this build.

Bags two and three build the Hungarian Horntail dragon figure. It’s odd in that the dragon is much larger than the humans, but is depicted as the same size here. I’m not sure how I feel about the decrease in size. I do like the design however. It’s a cool looking character and the use of yellow eye tiles is a nice change from the standard black with white. The tail and wings are moveable if you want to change the pose for display purposes.

Bag four builds Fleur. One difference here is her left hand isn’t a clip to hold something, but instead uses a piece that you can clip something onto. She is holding a small dragon which is a unique piece to this set (I think) so that’s a cool addition.

Bag five builds Viktor Krum. With his no frills hair style, the build is even less exciting as you don’t need to add different curves and slopes for the hair. He is holding a snitch which we’ve had before.

Bag six builds Cedric. Again, nothing exciting here. The same technique as Fleur is used for the left hand so he can hold a clip piece that holds the golden egg.

Here are some pictures of all the Brickheadz at the end. As always, if you are a collector of Brickheadz or a Harry Potter fan, this set might be for you. Wait for Double Insider points, a great GWP, or maybe a discount when it is close to retirement. Otherwise, I’d pass on this set. Not a lot of great pieces for MOC builders and while still under the 10 cents per piece mark, the price seems a bit steep considering what you get.

Happy building!

Set Review - #75946-1: Hungarian Horntail Triwizard Challenge

This should be it for the 2019 Harry Potter serts. #75946-1: Hungarian Horntail Triwizard Challenge was released on 1 July 2019. It retails for $29.99 in the US. At 265 pieces, it works out to be $0.113/piece which seems a bit steep to me. Let’s dig into this one to see if it is really worth it.

The front of the box shows the built set in animated action. I think it would be better if the design was all brick built, but I figure they have to split out the bricks to show what you actually get in the set. The back shows some of the play features to include the tent opening and the movement of the dragon.

The contents are 2 numbered parts bags, a small sticker sheet, the instruction booklet, and the dragon’s wings.

The first bag builds Harry, Fleur, and the dragon itself. Given the scale of the set, I think the dragon was done quite well. The details and coloring are fairly close to what you see in the movie and thankfully it was not just a giant BURP that you attach to the wings.


The second bag finishes up the set with the tent used by the Triwizard Champions and then the chain to hold down the dragon that is guarding the golden egg.

The tent is a very simple build and doesn’t have much exciting to it. The stickers go inside the tent.

The egg and the holder are rather plain. From a play standpoint, it meets the mark, but it could also go well as a part of a larger MOC recreating the scene from the book/movie.

This set comes with 4 minifigures. They are the 4 Triwizard Champions… Harry, Viktor, Cedric, and Fleur. They are all in their uniforms for the dragon challenge. I think this is the first time they have appeared in these outfits, but I’m not sure. Each one has wands and Harry has his broom.

Overall, this set doesn’t have much to it. The price is a bit steep in my opinion for what you get even with the 20% off sale from Amazon.com. If you’re looking to pick this one up, definitely wait for a sale. The dragon is a pretty cool, but beyond that, the set lacks anything exciting. However, it could be a good start to a larger MOC if you are looking to re-create the scene from the movie/book.

What are your thoughts on this one?

Happy building!
