BrickBob Studpants Posted February 4, 2012 Sorry to burst your bubble, but I think they confused Harry Potter with Lord of the Rings (because LOTR is called "Herr der Ringe" in German, so someone who doesn't know either that well could confuse the two ). Another clue is the fact that they didn't mention LOTR or Monster Fighters once in the whole text... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parrothead Rasmus Posted February 4, 2012 I think it may just be referring to the summer 2011 wave. Especially since they mentioned Alien Conquest, which I thought they decided to give it the axe a while ago. But, really, only time will tell. EDIT: 500th Post! I'm a knight! Yes! That's what I figured, but, then again, I wasn't sure. Oh well! Congrats!

BrickBob Studpants Posted February 13, 2012 Here are my ideas: - Dark tan jacket (from DH2) - Wedding suit (DH1) - Albert Runcorn disguise (DH1) - Pyjama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Real Walkers Posted February 13, 2012 The image source I was looking at for the Toy Fair had a picture of the last two collection of sets with all the information on. At least from this we might be able to gather that the sets are going to stay in producion for a little while yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I certainly think Diagon Alley will survive till late on in the year but shops are definitely phasing them out here. Seems to be an unholy amount of Quidditch sets unsold.

surrideo Posted February 14, 2012 Probably reading too much into it but I wonder if that means the production runs of these are lasting longer than The Burrow,Hogwarts Express, Forbidden Forest and Freeing Dobby. Thanks for the link Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GuntherThePenguin Posted February 14, 2012 To me, it sounds like they mean a 'Harry Potter' minifigure as in a fig from the theme Harry Potter, not an actual Harry Potter minifigure.... Just how I saw it.... And besides, we know Brickipedia is not always truthful. I think i'll just wait to see official pics for final judgement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oky Posted February 15, 2012 The image source I was looking at for the Toy Fair had a picture of the last two collection of sets with all the information on. At least from this we might be able to gather that the sets are going to stay in producion for a little while yet. As I already said 2 pages ago, the line is confirmed to stop production in July. To me, it sounds like they mean a 'Harry Potter' minifigure as in a fig from the theme Harry Potter, not an actual Harry Potter minifigure.... Why would they label the minifig with the name of the theme instead of that of the character? It's not like it would come with a Star Wars minifig. And the image looks pretty legit to me. I personally wouldn't mind a Deathly Hallows Harry with dirty clothes and possibly a dirty face and short hair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes, I could see them saying a 'Star Wars' minifig. My point is I'm just going to wait and see official pictures before I pass MY final judgement. Little thing called my opinion.

CaptainCRO Posted February 15, 2012 I am a bit out of tune in the HP LEGO...are there no sets for 2012? They renewed the license for one(or two?) wave only? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaincloudDustbin Posted February 15, 2012 I bet it's the yule ball Ron, as the book seems the same as the Star Wars Character Encyclopedia which came with Han Ceremony version and Luke ceremony version came with the visual dictionary. Harry yule ball came with the HP Visual Dictionary so... I am a bit out of tune in the HP LEGO...are there no sets for 2012? They renewed the license for one(or two?) wave only? it was just for DH release Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legomaster34 Posted February 15, 2012 I haven't been paying much attention to LEGO news lately... I've been a bit busy with TransFormers news and other related things... I haven't heard of Harry Potter being discontinued... This really dissapoints me... Harry Potter was the only theme I collected recently, which I unfortunately only got Quidditch Match and The Forbidden Forest, but I plan to track down the entire collection someday. After BIONICLE was discontinued Harry Potter sprang up, and being my second favorite theme (after BIONICLE), I became very interested in the theme. I love the Harry Potter brand, and I always loved the few LEGO sets I managed to get my hands on, and the two DS videogames, and the Building the Magical World book... I'm glad to hear of a minifigure in the character book; at least I still have that to look forward to! I just hope the Harry Potter related MoCs won't fade out on this website, I always enjoy seeing those, and I've been trying to get around to finish my LDD Hogwarts MoC, which will hopefully be done in the next couple of years!
