Description

Three dark characters, three builds

Unlike a minifigure-based set, this one is made up of three separate BrickHeadz figures in the boxy, large-headed style: Voldemort, his snake Nagini and Bellatrix Lestrange. The 344 pieces are split across three self-contained models rather than one combined scene, each of which can stand on its own once finished. Nagini is likely built as a coiled snake figure, while Voldemort and Bellatrix take the usual BrickHeadz proportions with details such as robes, a wand and distinctive hair. Together, the three figures form a small line-up of the series' darker characters.

A dark palette across 99 part types

Dark brown, dark green, black and sand green run through the colour scheme, matching the sombre look of all three characters. With 99 unique part types across 344 pieces, the part variety sits in the usual range for BrickHeadz sets, since three separate figures each need their own specialised pieces for faces, hair and accessories. The full list of parts by colour and shape is set out further down this page.

Built to display, not to play with

As with all BrickHeadz sets, 40496 is aimed at collecting and display rather than the kind of role-play a minifigure set supports. With 344 pieces spread across three figures, the build breaks down into manageable sections, and each figure can be completed and stood up on its own before moving to the next. For Harry Potter fans who already own other BrickHeadz figures from the range, this set adds three central antagonists to the collection. The compact size suits a shelf or desk display well.

Parts for other projects

The 99 part types in dark green, brown and black tones are useful beyond the three figures themselves, for darker-themed builds or as extras alongside other Harry Potter sets. Because BrickHeadz sets rely on a good number of specialised parts for faces and hair, it is worth checking the parts list if you are after specific shapes for your own figures. The full breakdown is available on this page.
