Harry Potter - Gryffindor Cardigan Sweater, Shirt with Wrinkles

Standout parts (per reviewers)

Patronus elements (otter and hare)
Trans-light blue plastic with glitter replicating their ethereal onscreen appearance; new Patronus elements complement Harry's stag from 75945; feature lovely moulded detail
Educational Decree notices
Printed stickers depicting numbered decrees from the film; appear to lack the peak that should appear above each proclamation
Trans-blue walls
Glass panels replicating the disorienting appearance from the movie
Trans-orange fireplace flames
Looks excellent with sticker placed behind featuring realistic shadows and brickwork
Patronus builds (hare and otter)
Two cute, well-designed patronuses are the standout feature; the reviewer notes 90% of buyers likely purchase the set for these.
Clear blue projectile pieces
Used for practice-firing at the mechanical death eater dummy in play.
