This image is a vibrant and dynamic promotional visual for LEGO Horizon Adventures, combining elements of lush nature and robotic creatures in an intense, action-packed scene inspired by the Horizon Zero Dawn video game series. In the foreground, two minifigures representing iconic characters from the game stand poised for battle, holding detailed LEGO-crafted weapons. One character with long red hair, presumably Aloy, wields a bow and appears confident and ready for action. Beside her stands another figure, also armed, exuding a sense of adventure. Surrounding them is a dense jungle environment constructed from LEGO bricks, featuring trees with detailed foliage and various plants, giving the impression of an untamed, wild landscape. The lighting suggests a late-afternoon or sunset glow, adding warmth to the scene, contrasted by cooler tones in the shadows and the background. In the background, towering robotic creatures assembled from LEGO parts loom ominously. One of these is a massive, dinosaur-like machine with glowing red eyes and sharp, articulated jaws, adding a sense of danger. Another mechanical creature, spider-like and multi-legged, adds further tension as it appears to be advancing through the vegetation. The LEGO and Horizon branding is prominently displayed in the upper right, establishing the fusion of LEGO creativity with the intense world of Horizon, inviting fans of both LEGO and the game to explore this detailed and imaginative crossover.

The image shows the box for the LEGO Harry Potter set titled “The Shrieking Shack & Whomping Willow,” set number 76407. The set is recommended for ages 9 and up and contains 777 pieces. On the left side of the box, you see the main focus of the set: a detailed recreation of the Shrieking Shack. It is a tall, old, wooden house with snow-dusted roofs and boarded-up windows. The house looks worn and mysterious, adding to the set’s eerie vibe. Next to the shack on the right is the Whomping Willow, depicted as a large, twisting, brown tree with long, curling branches. One of the branches holds a mini-figure, which appears to be Hermione Granger, mid-air, as if the tree has just thrown her. The base of the tree is surrounded by snow, and there’s an archway with a statue-like figure in front. Along the bottom of the box, you can see the included mini-figures: Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, and Peter Pettigrew, as well as a black dog (Sirius in Animagus form). Ron and Harry are shown interacting with the Whomping Willow, with Ron holding an accessory, likely the rat (Scabbers). The background features a magical winter scene from the Harry Potter universe with Hogwarts in the distance under a swirling blue night sky. Characters from the series—Harry, Hermione, Ron, and others—are also displayed on the right side of the box to tie in the movie setting.
