Below average

#36 of 43 Harry Potter sets with 200–499 pieces

Eight minifigures for $39.99 is nearly twice the usual rate for a 200–499-piece Harry Potter set, and builders rate this calendar a little above typical. But it has less than half the usual plastic per dollar, about 58 pieces per $10 against 74, and costs roughly 61% more than its contents normally would, around $25.
