Harry Potter, Open Dark Blue Jacket over Gryffindor Sweater

This Harry Potter minifigure, with his open dark blue jacket over a Gryffindor sweater, is desirable for collectors seeking to complete their Hogwarts student collection. The detailed torso print, featuring the Gryffindor tie and sweater, accurately reflects Harry's school uniform in later films. The smirk/angry face print adds character, allowing for versatile display options.

As a core character, Harry Potter minifigures always hold appeal. This particular version offers a slightly different aesthetic compared to earlier, simpler designs. The inclusion of the updated head print with more expressive features makes it a more modern and appealing representation of the character.

This minifigure appears in only one set, 76400-1 Hogwarts Carriage and Thestrals, which increases its relative rarity compared to versions of Harry that appear in multiple sets. While not a limited edition or promotional item, its single set appearance contributes to its collectibility. The set has been retired, meaning no new minifigs of this type are being produced.

Given its single set appearance and the enduring popularity of the Harry Potter theme, this minifigure has moderate investment potential. As the set retires, the demand for this particular version of Harry is likely to increase, potentially driving up its value on the secondary market. Investors should monitor its price trends and consider acquiring well-preserved examples. Because the set was not particularly expensive, this minifigure is unlikely to become extremely valuable.
