The LEGO Hogwarts Express Book Nook Gets a Massive Price Cut Ahead of Retirement

Although traditional book nooks are meant to be displayed between books, this Hogwarts Express build has a few different ways of being used once you put it together. You can choose to use the two sides of the set as a pair of bookends or fold them to fit neatly between books on a shelf. Both options reveal different aspects of Platform 9 and 3/4 and the train itself. As far as book nooks go, it’s a bit on the smaller side with only 832 pieces included. You also get minifigures of both Harry Potter and Ron as they were in their first year at Hogwarts.

One important note is that the book nook itself is only 6.5 inches tall. This height is generally fine for most paperbacks and smaller hardcovers, but if you have taller books in your collection it might look a little bit weird. For example, the Harry Potter illustrated books are about 11 inches tall and would absolutely tower over this set on a shelf.

While this was the first official Harry Potter book nook, it isn’t the only one you can buy. As of June 2026, there is also the Dumbledore’s Office Book Nook. It’s a more expensive set than the Hogwarts Express and includes a lot more pieces. You also get an Albus Dumbledore figure and a little LEGO Fawkes.
