I know, my point was that merfolk were insignificant compared to dragons :wink:
Dragons can't swim! Well the only dragon I know that can swim is Tempi Frei...

Getting back to the original topic...
Before I say anything else, I don't own this set, so I haven't made a final judgment. But...
Before this year's releases, there were really no official Potter sets that I liked. They were all too clunky and juniorized for my taste. But from the pictures I've seen of the new castle, it looks very well put together and exceptionally detailed. New colors aside, I'm rather surprised people don't like it more.

I think it's rather nice and I'd like to get a couple of them. Seems like a good parts pack, and the main model looks like it would be fun to build as well.

You know you're a good person when you see megablocks and have to do things you would rather not.
