People have been recreating movie scenes using LEGO for decades now, and continuing that awesome fad is Flickr user Robuko. Seen here is his version of Dumbledore’s oval office from the Harry Potter movies, replicated at a fraction of the size, but with the same amount of detail as a film set. From Dumbledore’s bookshelves to his various magical tools, everything has been accounted for in Robuko’s fan tribute.
Currently, Robuko has submitted his LEGO reproduction into the Guilds of Historica Commerce Challenge in hopes of winning a prize. He even included several cast members in LEGO form in order to better his chances at claiming victory, though I think Harry Potter fans everywhere would be satisfied enough with a toy version of Dumbledore’s office in their homes.
