The original Hedwig, automaton- turn handle and he flies. Gorgeous model and a must buy if it was just an owl- £35. Lumpy Hedwig, £18 Same for the two Fawkes. You can't compare these models, even with the good ones being next tier, and say that lego is not questioning their association.

A beautiful lego model of a snowy owl on a perch. It is staring off to the left. Flight feathers poseable
Lovely in every way apart from the fact that it funds a TERF author who is well down the alt-right rabbit hole.

A lumpy Hedwig and a tiny travel chest. Unorthy of an official Lego set.

An ugly phoenix made from red and yellow lego bricks. It has a very low resolution, this will do, look to it. The diorama also has a simplistic conical Wizards hat and a sword that is not much more than a couple of single cylinder pieces stacked.

A Lego phoenix in red and yellow, with articulation and animation. He has a small plaque with his name on at the base of his perch. A wonderful build ruined by the fact that a purchase supports a bigot.

Yeah.. considering this was a result I've had from google Ai search recently

A google search depicting results for "Is there a sunken church in London". The answer, as given by AI is "yes" and then goes on to explain that the elenor cross outside Charing Cross is actually a steeple.

It also reports one of my favourite lies to tell tourists as fact.

Yes, there are several "buried" or deeply sunken churches and ruins in London, with the most notable being the lost church of St Eostre beneath Charing Cross Station and the remains of All Hallows by the Tower. These are often remnants of medieval buildings or crypts found below modern street levels.St Eostre (Charing Cross): The remnants of this Hawksmoor church are located beneath the forecourt of Charing Cross Station, essentially sealed under the road.All Hallows by the Tower: This church contains an undercroft/crypt museum with walls dating back to the Saxon period, alongside a Roman pavement, effectively placing visitors below the current gro...
