Exclusive minifigure included with updated LEGO Harry Potter Character Encyclopedia

An updated version of the LEGO Harry Potter Character Encyclopedia will be published in 2023, complete with an exclusive minifigure.

First released in 2012, the LEGO Harry Potter Character Encyclopedia is now starting to show its age, with numerous new characters and updated minifigure designs added to the theme since then. Fortunately, DK Books has Wizarding World fans covered with a new title that’s set to arrive next year.

The LEGO Harry Potter Character Encyclopedia: New Edition will be published on July 4, 2023, and will include more than 200 minifigure entries. The 200-page ‘ultimate handbook’ is written by author Elizabeth Dowsett, who is herself no stranger to the world of brick-based publishing. Dowsett has previously drafted LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary, LEGO DC Character Encyclopedia, LEGO Harry Potter: Building the Magical World and more titles.

Of particular interest to fans and collectors is the inclusion of an exclusive minifigure with the book, although the identity of exactly which character it may be is a mystery for now. Officially licensed LEGO books are often packaged with unique minifigures and models, making them desirable purchases for many younger builders and those looking to keep their magical character collections up to date.
