=== Hogwarts Room ===
The corner of Hogwarts Castle that the set takes place in has two torches and a brick that slides across to hide the shelf. A rare Gryffindor sock piece is hidden inside the Tom Riddle's diary book piece (also included in 4730 The Chamber of Secrets).
=== Minifigures ===
This set includes the first version of Dobby, whose head is molded but unprinted. His clothing is printed onto a monochrome figure. As house-elves are shorter than humans, Dobby has short unposeable legs. The other minifigure in this set is the 2002 version of Lucius Malfoy.
