Character Background
Harry Potter's best friend, known for his hand-me-down clothes and large family. This represents Ron in casual attire.
Design Notes
Incorporates the 'short' leg piece introduced for younger characters; the reindeer sweater is an iconic 'ugly sweater' design.
Similar Minifigures
Harry Potter (hp153) and Hermione Granger (hp155) in casual attire from the same wave.
Collectibility
High demand as a core character, but low investment growth potential due to commonality.
History
Released during the 2018 relaunch of the Wizarding World theme which updated all character designs and skin tones.
Interesting Facts
The reindeer sweater design was specifically chosen to match the cozy aesthetic of the early films' holiday scenes.
Display Suggestions
Ideal for a Great Hall holiday diorama or alongside a LEGO Ford Anglia.
Modification Potential
Excellent for 'Christmas' themed MOCs given the generic holiday pattern on the sweater.
Overall Assessment
A charming, essential figure for Harry Potter fans that captures the innocence of the early films perfectly.
