Someone mentioned quidditch expansion packs, I love this idea. I'd love to have small "battlepacks" with students of various houses a'la Chima. Normal gray uniform, quidditch gear and robes with scarf. A small bit of terrain and accesories. Oh, and I absolutely want a full Herbology set with the mandragoras.

Been dreaming of that for years, but idk if Lego will ever answer our prayers  

[GoldenNinja3000]

I hope we get another Quidditch set soon so that we can have Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw players. Their house signs are included in the Quidditch Match set so I hope we at least get one player from each house in a second CMF series (if it happens).

Quidditch Expansion Pack - 2 members each of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff and additional set of goals? 

I'd buy it...

Wait what? That's awesome. Which students are in there?

It's a wishlist not a confirmed product.

If anyone has the Great Hall and 2010’s Hogwarts Castle, could it be possible to see them side-by-side?

[Clone OPatra]

Let’s keep wishlists out of this thread please. It only makes this lively thread more confusing, and we have a dedicated thread for wishlists.

Thanks

Aaaawww, I see, got really excited there for a second 

[The Dangerous HC]

For anyone in the UK, Argos has the FB/HP sets on the app (not sure about website as they aren’t actually on our system) that show we (I will say “we” because I work there so I am the company for now ?) will be getting all the sets including the exclusive Hogwarts Express, it also shows all the prices ?

Rumour has it the minifigures in the D2C will be the founding Wizards of the four houses. Godric Griffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin and Helga Hufflepuff. I think if this is true they'll be exclusive to that set.

sounds cool i guess id just buy the figures on ebay

Same, no intrest in microscale builds, way too expensive if you also want the regular sets. Still kinda curious to the design.

Anyone know if there’s a chance that the CMF series could come out a little early? In a couple weeks maybe? It would be nice to see them out ASAP. It’ll take a while feeling that many bags to find them all, especially if (as rumored) there’s one that’s a lot harder to find than the others

Now thats ... asking the real question.

I do hope CMF too will be released earlier so that the early rush would ease.

[LegoLord54]

I seriously doubt they will do another quidditch set including HuffLepuff and ravenclaw as they aren’t that iconic compared to other Harry Potter sets we could get also Lego are basing the sets off the films and we never got a good insight into the hufflepuff and ravenclaw teams so we couldn’t expect a good mini figure selection. This is why I think if it was made I don’t think they would sell very well

[djmangunz]

For those interested, Target has the Hogwarts Express in stock online. Hurry, it says there are only 3 left.

[Balrogofmorgoth]

I want them to announce the D2C soon because I need to start coming up with a plan. My closest Lego store is about 3 hours away in Phoenix so I have to make the trip count. I’ll probably pick up Quantum Realm Explorers too if they have it, seeing as I still haven’t seen it at any retailer. I got all the new HP sets already at Target except Hogwarts Express which I ended up ordering online from Lego. Now my sights are set on CMFs and the D2C. Once they’re released, I hope Walmart and Target get plenty of the CMFs right away so I can start hunting, I’m going after all 22, and 2 each of Graves and Moody, seeing as both are two in one. I think the two FB sets will be easier to get our hands on as they likely won’t be in as high demand as these HP sets

[The Dangerous HC]

Can anyone with the Great Hall set tell me if the box is the same size as the Flying Fox from Justice League/Batcave from TLBM?

It’s very likely the 15th August early access set

according to amazon, the height and length are the same, but the depth of the box is about an inch less

Nice one, thanks, that’s pretty cool ?

[War of the Bas]

I just noticed the hole underneath the Whomping Willow, and it got me thinking. Maybe the LEGO designers are planning a Shrieking Shack with a tunnel to the outside where you can easily connect the Whomping Willow. Would be cool.

[RODDY]

I can't believe how quickly they sold out. I had just made time to go pick them up just now at the lego store and all but Aragog sold out... I think there is no doubt the series will continue on but since the next shipment isn't till Aug 1, I'll be waiting with the UK people very patiently.

And we’ll probably be on back order and waiting till September.

I think i'm gonna bite the bullet and get the great hall, out of all the sets I only really like the castle builds, still unsure but I deff want to make up my mind before the 2x VIP points expires. I'm also waiting for Newt's suitcase; any idea on price?

OT: But is there a thread on here that lists the upcoming/rumored sets for like aug, sept, etc.?

Care to take a look around? This is not, I dare say, the Hogwarts botanical gardens. Have you any idea where you are? Where you truly are? Welcome to the deceptively verdant thread on Harry Potter 2018 rumors and discussion. Oh, I am so happy for you! My, what a burden to have carried. But you've done it! You've found the Harry Potter 2018 rumors and discussion thread O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay. Well the only rumors we've got are about something that contains the wand making wizard and for upcoming sets we have the collectable minifigure series and the d2c.

Isn't it simply miraculous! We haven't got pictures for the d2c but why ruin the surprise? It will set you back multiple hundreds though so I myself won't be worrying about it if it doesn't have a minifig scale interior, afterall the interior of hogwarts is much more important to the story than the outside, at least I think so.

Alright my post was poorly worded but your post could've done without the cocky/condescending tone.

I meant all lego themes upcoming released, hence the OT.

Don’t take it personally, up until recently I’ve been a lurker, and reading through here I’ve noticed they can be a bit condescending, I doubt it’s on purpose, but some people need to think before they post
