Editor's Notes & Price Research

About this deal:
Our research indicates that this offer is $69.96 lower (17% savings) than the next best available price from a reputable merchant with prices starting from $399.95.
- 4 minifigures (each one representing a school house founder)
- 27 microfigures
It is correct to note that this is a microfigure-scale set though. I'd point people to a YouTube review if they want to get a good sense of what they'll get for their money e.g.:
Zavvi was originally Virgin Megastores, but was purchased and rebranded as part of that deal since Richard Branson didn't want third parties using the "Virgin" brand.
They used to have "Zavvi entertainment" stores in Europe similar to GameStop, but the 07/08 global recession kills their physical stores leaving only their web-store.
Then the online part was purchased by The Hut Group who own a bunch of e-commerce websites. So they're pretty legit, just not really a well known brand in the US as opposed to the UK and Ireland where they are 10+ years old.

Umm, no, that's not correct. There are 4 full size minifigures actually.
Yep, other poster is just incorrect.

EDIT: I've ordered the Lambo Sian set from them and it's the real thing. You'll see others here say the same. They may be slow on shipping & customer service, but products are not fake.

Is zavvi legit or are these knockoffs?

Edit: I should have specified that the set was nanofigs scale. That is what's relevant for playability.
I researched and found the 4 included minifigs are the Founders. They might be unique to this set, but I don't know either way.
Umm, no, that's not correct. There are 4 full size minifigures actually.
This set also has 4 Minifigures that go on a separate display. (In addition to the microfigures)
