Hogwarts Express - Collectors' Edition is about typical value for its size
Average
#8 of 24 Harry Potter sets with 1,000+ pieces
The Hogwarts Express Collectors’ Edition is just short of good value for a big Harry Potter set. It has roughly 19% more plastic per dollar than its peers and costs about 14% less than similar contents at $499.99, but its 20 minifigures come at only the usual rate and builders rate it 4.0 of 5, below most of the group.
