The latest and greatest LEGO Harry Potter The Burrow arrives, completing a trio of sets that have changed almost as much as the Weasleys.

The LEGO Harry Potter Collector’s Edition The Burrow (76437) is the most comprehensive representation of the Weasleys’ house to date, and just as we statistically compared the three full-size LEGO sets of the building, Swiftbricks has tried out the trio of sets based on the location for ourselves to show exactly what has changed over the past 14 years.

From top to bottom, inside and out, here are the biggest differences between The Burrow (4840) from 2010, Attack on the Burrow (75980) from 2020, and The Burrow (76437) from 2024.

While the selection of minifigures has changed a lot, especially between 75980 Attack on the Burrow and 76437 The Burrow Collectors’ Edition, some have remained the same across all three sets and the evolution for each of them has been notable. From left to right, the minifigures in the images below are from the 2010 set, the 2020 model, and the 2024 Burrow.

Molly has settled comfortably into her modern hairpiece, similarly used for Rey in Star Wars, but introduces a new outfit in 76437 The Burrow Collectors’ Edition. In contrast, the depiction of Arthur in 76437 The Burrow Collectors’ Edition returns to the green coat outfit from 4840 The Burrow, but has a more familiar face than 4840 The Burrow when compared to 75980 Attack on the Burrow.

Ginny’s minifigures are based on different locations in the films, so differences are to be expected. Still, the debut of her blue robe in 76437 The Burrow Collectors’ Edition is a fun update for the character. The same can be said about Harry Potter, although looking at the three minifigures side by side helps us appreciate the newest hairpiece for the character.

Inside, the 2024 building is the most extensive and detailed, but the 2020 set compares relatively well. However, the 2010 version of the location compares less well to the Collectors’ Edition 76437 The Burrow, despite offering the largest dining area in terms of surface area.

The 2020 and 2024 models introduced the clock into the dining area and the latest model sacrifices some space around the table to create more room in other areas of the house. The bedrooms in 4840 The Burrow are not large and the beds have the same color scheme. The 2020 model is much more accurate 10 years later, but it can’t quite match the amount and detail of the beds in the 2024 set.

The reference to the Chudley Cannons via the bed and poster remains in the 2020 and 2024 sets, but 76437 The Burrow Collectors’ Edition includes more details overall.

Externally, the three versions of The Burrow are noticeably different, especially between 2010 and 2020. The oldest building is noticeably less lopsided than the other sets, but all three use a different shade of blue for the windows. The blue of 76437 The Burrow Collectors’ Edition is the lightest, including a window next to the large pig pen. The pig pen is present in the other two sets, but previously there was only room for one animal.

Back to the finer details: The Floo fireplace is present in all three versions of The Burrow and works in all three. The version in 76437 The Burrow Collector’s Edition, however, cannot switch between yellow and orange flames.

In the 2020 and 2024 sets you will find the self-knitting needles and their construction has changed a lot. Surprisingly, the theme has moved away from using wands for them, despite their magical nature.

Whichever version of The Burrow you prefer, 76437 The Burrow Collectors’ Edition will be available to LEGO Insiders from September 4th or 1st for £219.99 / $259.99 / €259.99. You can read our full review by clicking here.

LEGO has been a part of my life since I was a child. It all started when my brother left me 7657 AT-ST. It followed me through my early years, through school and eventually through my journalism studies. I still proudly display my entire collection, including my many NINJAGO sets, my favorite LEGO Group theme. Outside of Brick Fanatics, I am an avid gamer and enjoy a good game of Dungeons & Dragons.
