A mosaic portrait of Hermione that scores an A on resale but a D+ overall — that gap alone tells you what this set is: a collector's artifact, not a satisfying build or display piece.

The Full Take
Mosaic sets are a specific bet, and this one pays off mostly for people who hold rather than build or display. The build experience clocks in at 9.4 out of 10 for length — hours of repetitive tile-placing — but 'long' and 'rewarding' aren't the same thing. On the shelf, a flat portrait of Hermione reads more like wall art than sculpture, and without a frame or stand it feels unfinished. There are no minifigs, no clever geometry, no wow-factor part. What you get is essentially a large pixel grid, and the D+ overall reflects how narrow the appeal is. The A on resale is real, though — licensed Harry Potter mosaics don't reprint, and this one has quietly appreciated. Buy it with a clear purpose, not a vague one.
