25 craziest Harry Potter Lego creations
11. David T. Howard’s Weasley’s Wizarding Wheezes Build
This gem was discovered during a Google image search. David T. Howard is a photographer and Lego custom builder. He has created many different Lego scenes, including stills from The Big Bang Theory or Dorothy finally meeting the Wizard of Oz. But upon perusing more of his creations, we found a replica of Weasley’s Wizarding Wheezes from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
The building itself is pretty hard to miss. That’s because it’s a two-story tall bright orange building. Brothers Fred and George opened it after ditching Hogwarts towards the end of their final year. Acting at the main pillar for the store is a gigantically tall red-headed man, forever tipping his large top hat, and welcoming visitors to the store. It’s by far one of the oddest buildings in the Potterverse, but David captures the exterior perfectly.
Of course, there’s plenty going on inside, since Fred and George have a lot of inventory to keep up with. The Weasley Twins were able to thrive during a time when businesses on Diagon Alley were struggling to survive. Weasley’s Wizarding Weezes also is one building that wasn’t found in an authentic Lego set, leading creators to their own devices in order to build it. You can find several different people’s takes on this building all over the net.
It also looks like at one point David was building a replica of Diagon Alley. There’s a few photos of matching buildings and Gringott’s Bank. He’s also a builder with a fabulous custom Hogwarts Castle to boast about as well.
