GoldenNinja3000 Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 I saw a new picture of the nanofigures on an Instagram story. They look pretty good! I love nanofigures and these ones are very well done. I don’t see the dementor, but I believe that some people said it’s a separate picture. I think there has to be another bag of nanofigures, though, because we’re missing too many important characters for this to be the only bag. Quote

GryffindorResistance Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 Looks like we will be getting Mad-Eye Moody and Sirius in the CMF series https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/witches-and-wizards-character-handbook-samantha-swank/1128591211?ean=9781338260960 Quote

(Search for michael_bricks_vol.7 on instagram.) You can see twelve figures on it: Snape, Umbridge, Bellatrix, 3 x Ravenclaw student, 1 x Slytherin student, Lupin (or Lockhart, I can´t recognize), four other Nanofigs (I can´t recognize, they look like students).

8BrickMario Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 Huh. Is Boggart-Snape the first time they've done a double face with a hat that doesn't cover it? I know some hairpieces don't always cover the second face, but with a hat it'll be even more obvious. Quote
Legochaek Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 Think I see a death eater top shelf second on the right Quote
Falconfan1414 Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 I think we will get another or possibly even 2 more bags of nano figures. If each bag contains 12 figures then the Hogwarts castle will have the most nanofigures in a set ever. Previous record according to quick research was the shield helicarrier with 12 nanofigures Quote

I know some hairpieces don't always cover the second face, but with a hat it'll be even more obvious. But he also has the fur collar that will definitely cover it up. The McGonagall in the Great Hall set is more worrisome to me because she has a double sided face with nothing but the pointed wizard hat piece which definitely won’t cover it up Quote

BrickBob Studpants Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 The inclusion of a Bellatrix nanofig in the D2C set makes me think we might get a minifig version of her as well (hopefully in the CMF series) since it'd be rather silly to have a nanofig available but not a minifig version The Helicarrier, the only comparable set, featured nanofigs that didn't have minifig counterparts in the set itself (e.g. Iron Man) but they were at least available in other sets that were on shelves at the same time. I think there's further evidence for that since they reused her hairpiece mould for the Nexo Knights theme and I'm pretty sure they had something else in mind too back then, wouldn't be the first time Quote
SuperChris Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 I wouldn’t be surprised if we got a crazy amount of nanofigs. So far we have our fair share of Ravenclaw students, logically you’d expect the same amount of figures from the other houses too, right? For a £400-£500 set, I hope Lego are very kind with the amount we’re getting. I’d love a smaller scaled castle full of different characters. Quote

RyanMe Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 (edited) According to brickfan, all sets are a Target exclusive for the month of July. Lego will also be selling them. No word on July sales outside of US. Edited June 23, 2018 by RyanMe Quote
deskp Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 Lego books just use imagery of old versions of figs when they don't have new ones. So a simple mention doesn't automatically mean new fig. Quote

GoldenNinja3000 Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 I remember thinking about this the other day but I don’t think I posted about it. If the nanofigures from the D2C are already leaking, then the D2C can’t be a December release, right? The UCS style Hulkbuster helmet and minifigure leaked in December while the set was a March release. Could Hogwarts be coming in August and could it be one of the two VIP early access spots for mid-July? I have no idea what else the access spots could be for, since Ninjago City Docks is a retail set. Quote

The set will most likely be revealed as close to comic con as it can be and will be on display there Quote

Now I’m kinda happy that the regular wave is said to still be August 1st in the U.K. gonna buy all 11 sets at once!! Gonna cost like £800 Quote
Whovastron Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 According to Thebrickfan, the US July 1st release date is only for Target and Lego, due to target wanting a month of exclusivity for some reason. Hence why the date is still august in other territories. to be honest I think from July 1st, outside of the us it’s just gonna be a case of if a store decides to put them out or not. Quote
