Frequently Asked Questions
Is that thing really moving?
Oh yes. With its spring wound up, the monster book rolls across the table, flips open like a hungry hippogriff, and dramatically opens its eyes. It’s all mechanical—no electricity required.
Is this really a gift, or is it a test of courage?
Both. You're giving the gift of officially licensed Harry Potter magic with a wow factor—and at the same time, testing your loved ones' nerves.
How big will the finished Monster Book be?
When assembled, it measures 16 x 15 x 7 cm and consists of 195 colorful wooden pieces. This means it fits nicely among other books, even if it doesn't behave quite so peacefully there.
Can I do this even without any experience?
You don't have to be a craft expert. The Monster Book is rated Level 3 out of 5 (Intermediate) and consists of 195 pieces. The illustrated instructions guide you step by step to the finished beast.
Do I need glue or tools?
You don't need glue; the laser-cut pieces simply snap together. If you'd like, you can secure individual connections for added stability. For the most comfortable assembly experience, use our optional tool set, which includes a file, a utility knife, and a mini hammer. The illustrated instructions are included in German, English, French, and other languages.
What if a part is missing or breaks?
Our spare parts service is free: Just tell us which part you need, and we'll send it to you as soon as possible. Support is available weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with an average response time of about 30 minutes. Shipped from Berlin · Free shipping on orders of €35 or more.
