That Whomping Willow

There’s plenty of detail in this set. The rooms, although small, are awash with artefacts that the characters can interact with. But in these modern times, they might want to rethink the size of the dormitories. There’s also no staircase to access the upper floors, but this could encourage you to expand the rest of the castle with other sets. I love how the tree’s branches grasps the car like a giant hand. With a bit of tinkering, you could also rig a motor to the tree, although it’d look a bit unnatural if it rotated rather than swung from side to side. The detail on the car is amazing and it even has a working boot for you to insert luggage or even a stowaway if you wish to. And it’s great that the arch is wide enough to let the car through, but what we really want is a pair of huge doors that can be smashed open. It might do damage to the set though.
