They had both #4841 Hogwarts Express and #40028 Mini Hogwarts Express out at the same time. So there is history of having the same subject at two scales at the same time. Not that The Great Hall by itself is Hogwarts. Plus sets that are primarily architecture with less play features and minifigure scale with more play features are aimed at different audiences. There might be some overlap, but I imagine most kids won't be interested in the microscale set if it is primarily display rather than play. Quote

Johnny1360 Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 (edited) I think it's more unbridled bitter disappointment on LEGODalekbuster523s part. Personally I look forward to seeing the set, afterwards I will decide if I want it, thinking it will be quite cool though, considering the sheer size alone. Edited June 22, 2018 by Johnny1360 Quote

Captain Nemo Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 NOOOOOooooooooooooo! I was sooooo close to it! But they wouldn’t sell it to me! Super Target employee why!!! Why must you play with my heart?! Also the box for the Great Hall set is surprisingly small in person. Quote

Captain Nemo Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 The Great Hall set! It was right there, on a cart in the middle of the isle! I touched it! But alas...tis not August yet. Quote

Captain Nemo Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 So either Lego Shop is wrong, or the press releases Lego sent out all had the wrong month listed. Quote
Johnny1360 Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Yes would think if Target already had it albeit not for sale, that it would be slated for July release, since August is a good 5 weeks away. Just can't see them distributing it that early to stores. Quote

Balrogofmorgoth Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Aragog’s Lair has been officially revealed. Think there’s any chance of it being included in the July releases? Quote
MAB Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 It appears that LEGO doesn't even know the correct release dates, so it is anyone's guess. Quote
Robert8 Posted June 22, 2018 Author Posted June 22, 2018 I wouldn't be surprised if the CMF line shows early as well Quote

At least you're able to have a sense of humor about it; I get so frustrated when this happens to me. Also, you're not in the Chicago area by any chance, are you? (Just so I know whether I should go searching in vain for early HP sets ) Also, I've been following this thread for quite a while, despite the fact that I've only really been posting in the Star Wars forum, so I have a question--apologies if it's already been asked:Is there already a dedicated thread for posting about potential future Harry Potter sets or wishlists?

I asked as it was on a cart of stuff going on the shelf. He said everything was going on the shelves...except...for that--pointing at the Harry Potter set! Oh well! Spotted in Naperville, IL. Quote
ItamatTheGreat Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 I cannot believe there is still no information on the contant of the minifigure series. That's what I am really exctied for. Quote
CFOL Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 I haven't seen any sets in person, it's infuriating Quote
Duffyoran Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 (edited) https://www.instagram.com/p/BkVeXPaAAqV/ Saw this on ig was wondering if it was real (It could be just an edit?) If it is real it could be placeholders for 10 students? Its probably not real tho Edited June 22, 2018 by Duffyoran Quote

Then again: Harry Potter (Gryffindor) Hermione (Gryffindor) Ron (Gryffindor) Fred (Gryffindor) George(Gryffindor) Luna (Ravenclaw) Draco (Slytherin) Crabbe(Slytherin)- unlikely. More likely Neville Goyle (Slytherin)- unlikely. More likely Parvati or Padma Random Hufflepuff I think definitely at least 6 students, so maybe it is real? Quote
