76476 Minifigures: Exclusives & Missing Cast | BRICKREGAL

LEGO 76476 Minifigures: The Full Cast and Who’s Missing

Source-based collector’s guide. Facts checked October 27, 2026.

LEGO 76476 The Ministry of Magic – Collectors’ Edition makes the most sense when you treat its minifigures as a cast for several scenes. A witness belongs in the courtroom, an office holder needs a desk, and a duel needs room between its opponents. Put everybody shoulder to shoulder in the atrium and much of that character selection becomes difficult to appreciate.

At 3,491 pieces and a checked U.S. list price of $449.99, this is a substantial purchase. [1] The collection has real strengths, especially its two character debuts and several distinctive outfits. It also leaves gaps that matter if you want to recreate a particular moment. This guide separates those storytelling choices from catalog exclusivity and resale estimates, then turns the lineup into a practical display plan.

Key Takeaways

• The official count is 14 character minifigures. Some catalogs list 15 by also counting the golden Ministry statue. The Lynx Patronus is a separate animal element.
• An exclusive variant can reuse existing pieces. A catalog entry describes a particular assembled combination; it does not mean every component was newly created.
• Arabella Figg and Antonin Dolohov are character debuts. They expand the roster beyond familiar heroes in updated outfits.
• The missing cast extends beyond Fudge and Bellatrix. Ginny, Luna and Neville affect the student group; Lupin affects the Order’s rescue scene.
• Plan from width, depth and height in that order. The published dimensions are approximately 35 × 15 × 51 cm, not a 51 cm-wide footprint. 

How Many Minifigures Are in LEGO 76476—and Which Are Exclusive?

The clearest description is 14 character minifigures, plus a golden Ministry statue and a Lynx Patronus. LEGO uses the 14-character count on its product page; Brick Ranker inventories the statue as an additional minifigure entry. Those totals describe different counting conventions rather than a missing person in the box. [1][2]

At the time of checking, Brick Ranker labels all 15 of its cataloged assemblies as exclusive to this set. Read that as a statement about the exact variants. A familiar head combined with a different torso or legs can produce a separate catalog entry without requiring a new mold. 

For collectors, three questions are more useful than a single “exclusive” label:

1. Is this the character’s first appearance?
2. Is this a new outfit or expression for a familiar character?
3. Does this version improve the scene you actually want to display?

The answers can point in different directions. A debut built from reused elements may contribute more to a character collection than another elaborate version of someone you already own.、

Which Characters Are Included in the Ministry of Magic Set?

Here is the complete 14-character lineup. The visual identifiers follow the published lineup photography; the placements are BRICKREGAL’s display suggestions. 

Keep the golden statue associated with the fountain when arranging a story display. It serves as part of the Ministry’s architecture, rather than another participant in the battle.

Which Details Deserve a Closer Look?

Kingsley Shacklebolt: Give the Robes and Patronus Separate Space

Kingsley’s patterned torso and legs make him visually distinctive even among the brightly dressed Order members. Brick Fanatics also highlights his two-tone hat and updated skin tone. 

For a display, place the Lynx slightly beside him rather than directly in front of his legs. That lets viewers read both the robe printing and the animal silhouette. Against the model’s busy interior, a small uncluttered area does more for this pairing than another decorative accessory.

His visual appeal is a reason to feature him prominently. It does not establish that he commands the highest resale price.

Moody and Umbridge: Different Details Need Different Viewing Angles

Moody retains a dual-molded leg design, while Umbridge has printed legs that continue the appearance of her pink outfit. These details are noted in Brick Fanatics’ review. 

A slightly angled pose helps make Moody’s prosthetic leg visible. Umbridge benefits from a clear view of the front of her outfit, so avoid hiding the lower half behind office furniture. If a printed detail is the reason you like a figure, choose its position before filling the surrounding room.

Harry Potter: Choose the Expression Before Framing the Scene

Harry’s alternate head print depicts his possessed expression. [4] This gives the figure a specific dramatic use beyond a general group portrait.

Use the everyday face for an arrival or hearing vignette. Turn to the alternate expression for a display centered on the confrontation’s emotional aftermath. Photograph both options before closing a case: the expression that reads clearly close up may be hard to distinguish from normal shelf-viewing distance.

Why Do Arabella Figg and Antonin Dolohov Matter?

Arabella Figg and Antonin Dolohov make their first appearances as LEGO minifigure characters in this set. Independent coverage also notes their use of existing elements, illustrating why a character debut and an entirely new parts inventory are different things. 

Figg adds an important kind of scene: testimony rather than combat. Her role as a witness at Harry’s disciplinary hearing gives the courtroom a reason to contain someone beyond the central heroes and Ministry officials. LEGO’s own tour of the model specifically connects her with that hearing. 

Place her facing the officials, with Harry nearby and Dumbledore positioned as his defender. The arrangement communicates a hearing even without a caption. A second Harry on an adjacent riser is unnecessary unless you deliberately want to present multiple moments at once.

Dolohov serves a different collecting purpose. He expands the named Death Eater group beyond Lucius and Voldemort. For a collector organizing figures by faction, that additional identity may matter more than another costume for a main character.

For a scene display, give him an opponent and a clear sightline. A dark outfit can disappear against a dark background; placement near a lighter floor edge can help viewers distinguish the silhouette without adding an invented prop or altering the model.

Which Missing Characters Change the Scenes You Can Build?

The most useful way to assess an omission is to identify the scene it affects. The official cast does not include Cornelius Fudge, Bellatrix Lestrange, Ginny Weasley, Luna Lovegood, Neville Longbottom or Remus Lupin.

Bellatrix’s connection to Sirius’s death, the six-student mission and Lupin’s arrival alongside Sirius, Moody, Tonks and Kingsley are established in the Harry Potter story. The display priorities above are our interpretation of how those roles translate to the model. [6][10]

Fudge appears in the separate 40901 Ministry Munchies & The Daily Prophet Stands, which LEGO describes as a promotional companion to the Ministry set. His presence there is verifiable; the claim that he was removed from 76476 specifically to drive promotional demand is not established by that fact. [7]

You also do not need to purchase every absent character. Add Fudge first for a hearing, Bellatrix for a Veil scene, or the other students for a group mission. Choosing the moment before choosing the extra figures keeps the display focused.

What Is the Issue With Dumbledore’s Hair and Beard?

The criticism concerns consistency with the film portrayal. Brick Fanatics points out that this Dumbledore uses hair and beard elements associated with Richard Harris’s version, while the Ministry confrontation in Order of the Phoenix features Michael Gambon. [8]

That is a visible design comparison. The proposed explanation—that a retired mold was too expensive to revive—is the reviewer’s inference, not a confirmed LEGO production account. It should not be presented as a documented manufacturing decision.

For display planning, decide how closely you want the figure to match the film. The supplied version is recognizable as Dumbledore and works in a general character collection. A collector aiming for a more specific screen interpretation may prefer another existing version.

If you substitute parts, keep the original assembly together in a labeled bag. That preserves the set’s original configuration and makes it easy to switch between a film-focused scene and a complete inventory display.

Which LEGO 76476 Minifigure Is Worth the Most?

There is no sufficiently consistent basis here to name a universal winner. When checked, Brick Ranker identified Antonin Dolohov as the set’s most valuable figure, while BrickEconomy’s displayed estimates placed Dumbledore above Kingsley. Those snapshots do not support a definitive “Kingsley is the most valuable” claim. [2][9]

Nor do they establish a reliable combined cash value for the lineup. A catalog estimate, a seller’s asking price and a completed transaction answer different questions.

If you are comparing loose figures, match the exact variant and condition, check which accessories are included, and compare completed sales over the same period and in the same currency. Include delivery costs when comparing buying options. A figure offered with its associated animal element is a different package from the figure alone.

For deciding whether to buy the full set, use the total cost of the collection you want. Someone who wants only Figg and Dolohov faces a different purchasing decision from someone who wants the building, all the characters and the Patronus. Unrelated resale estimates should not substitute for that comparison.

How Much Display Space Do the Model and Figures Need?

LEGO gives the model’s dimensions as over 51 cm high, 35 cm wide and 15 cm deep. In width × depth × height order, the rounded measurements are approximately 35 × 15 × 51 cm (13.8 × 5.9 × 20.1 in). [1]

The case should be planned around the assembled model in your chosen arrangement. Published dimensions are rounded, and hands, wands, loose accessories and an added riser can extend beyond the basic footprint.

Here is an illustrative calculation using the rounded published size:

That produces a provisional internal envelope of 41 × 23 × 57 cm (16.1 × 9.1 × 22.4 in), width × depth × height. These margins are BRICKREGAL planning assumptions, not an official case specification or a tested fit. Measure the completed arrangement before ordering a case, and allow extra room for any removable lid or access panel.

Separate figure displays have a different constraint. If you allocate an illustrative 3.5 cm per figure, a single row of 14 needs 49 cm before outer margins. Two rows of seven reduce that nominal width to 24.5 cm, though wands, hats and the Lynx may need more space. A slightly raised rear row helps prevent the front row from hiding printed torsos.

A cover can reduce dust accumulation, but its dimensions alone do not establish UV protection or secure the model against tipping. A level, adequately supported shelf and accessible placement still matter.

How Can You Make the Display Read as a Story?

Start with one focal scene and move the remaining figures to a separate base. The architecture references several moments across Order of the Phoenix and Deathly Hallows; all of its rooms do not need to depict one simultaneous event. [1][5]

For a courtroom display, concentrate attention on Harry, Figg and Dumbledore, adding a separately sourced Fudge if desired. Keep unrelated combat figures away from the hearing so the witness remains easy to identify.

For an atrium display, give Dumbledore and Voldemort a clear line between them. Place other figures toward the edges rather than using them to fill every exposed stud. The empty space helps communicate the confrontation.

For a character collection, use the model as a backdrop and organize the figures on a separate riser. Group students, Order members, Ministry figures and antagonists, with Kingsley and the Lynx together. This arrangement favors visible outfits and faces over a single cinematic moment.

Before settling on a layout, take a photograph from normal viewing height. If the focal character is difficult to find in the photograph, reduce the crowding before adding lighting or decorations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does LEGO 76476 Have 14 or 15 Minifigures?

LEGO advertises 14 character minifigures. Some inventories count the golden Ministry statue as a fifteenth minifigure entry. The Lynx Patronus is a separate animal element. [1][2]

Are All the Minifigures Exclusive?

Brick Ranker listed all 15 of its cataloged assemblies, including the statue, as exclusive when checked on October 27, 2026. This refers to exact variants and does not mean every component is new. Exclusivity can change if a variant appears in another release. [2]

Do I Need Set 40901 to Complete the Main Build?

No. It is a separate companion, not a required building stage of 76476. It adds Cornelius Fudge, a newspaper vendor and additional Ministry scenery; those contents are separate from the main set’s advertised inventory. [7]

Can Older Figures Fill the Missing Character Roles?

Yes. An existing Bellatrix, Fudge or student figure can fill the relevant storytelling role. Compare the outfit with your chosen scene, and keep substituted figures distinguishable from the original 76476 inventory.

What Should I Check When Buying a Used or Split Set?

Ask the seller to confirm the 14 characters, the golden statue, the Lynx Patronus and the accessories included in that particular sale. Check photographs of heads, torsos and legs against the correct variants. A listing described as “build only” should not be assumed to contain the figures.

Continue your next building project with BRICKREGAL. Plan the shelf space alongside the model, so the finished build and the characters you care about can both be seen clearly.
