As with all Lego games, you can find some red bricks to unlock extras to help you while you play. In the world of Harry Potter, these bricks take the form of parcels that you must find and mail off using a post owl. When you have found a parcel and posted it, you can then go upstairs in the Leaky Cauldron to purchase them.
All you need to do then is to turn them on using the Extras menu, when you press start. If you need any help finding the locations listed below, you can view a map of the HUB here.

thank you very much
thanks it helped me alot you r best
this REALLY helped me a lot
i liked what you said but where do you buy red bricks
You can buy your collected red bricks in one of the rooms at the top of the stairs in the leaky cauldron.
you buy the red bricks in the diagon alley in the kettle at upstairs, go straight the street and left there is a door go in there, it’s there you buy the red bricks
Thanks you helped me a lot to my 100%, however I cant destroy the crystal ball – the red brick finder even shows one there but I just can destroy it!! Is that a bug, do I need to use a certain spell or a char? Please help me!
I CANT DO THIS EITHER. Did you figure it out?
Why does I continue to see red indicator for red brick unless I had found the brick (and gave to the owl)?
Does anyone know how to get red brick one and we’re is the location
