To admin, Regarding parts and colour entry. It would be good if there were an entry to say whether the colour is matt or shiny. I have to replace a part on Harry Potter Knight's bus. The original was shiny black but the part I received as a replacement was matt. On this particularly set it is rather noticeable so rather than have to email each seller to ask if they have a shiny black part it would be good if it were stated. Not sure if Lego make the distinction but it makes a difference to the look of the set when its a visible part.
