Mafalda Hopkirk / Hermione Granger

This Mafalda Hopkirk/Hermione Granger minifigure is desirable for collectors interested in completing their Harry Potter minifigure collection, specifically from the later waves of sets. The dual-face print, offering both Mafalda Hopkirk and an angry Hermione Granger, adds a unique element. The detailed torso printing and unique hairpiece enhance its appeal.

Since this minifigure represents two characters, it appeals to collectors who want both Mafalda Hopkirk and a specific Hermione expression without acquiring multiple figures. The figure's association with a key location, the Ministry of Magic, further boosts its collectibility.

This minifigure appears in only one set, The Ministry of Magic (76403-1), which was available for a limited time before being retired. While not a limited edition or regional exclusive, the single set appearance contributes to its relative scarcity on the aftermarket. The availability of the set during its production run affects the current availability of the minifigure.

The investment potential of this minifigure is moderate. Its value is tied to the popularity of the Harry Potter theme and the completeness of minifigure collections. As the set has been retired, the minifigure's value may gradually increase over time, particularly for figures in excellent condition. Comparable minifigures from retired Harry Potter sets have shown steady appreciation, suggesting a positive outlook for this figure as well.
