I think in the movie, her wand was brown but there was a pink gem in the centre. 

True, but Seraphina Picquery's wand was also brown with only a purple/pinkish gem at the handle. They made her wand purplish so I imagine Umbridge's lego wand being pink.

Now that we’re getting Harry Potter Brickheadz, do you reckon we might get more if these sell well? I’d love to get Snape, McGonagall, Flitwick (would be interesting to see how they deal with the height differences), Hagrid (if we’re sticking with animals like Hedwig we could get Fang too) and a few others

I heard a rumour in the Unikitty thread that the Harry Potter CMFs were being pushed back in favour of the Unikitty ones. Maybe I'm late to the party or misread it or something, but as we haven't seen the CMFs yet, maybe there is some truth to it?

Ive heard so many things, but I’m not in any other threads (I literally only care about this theme right now) so I wouldn’t worry too much until it’s announced in this thread, I have however heard that they come out in August but also that they come out in September so I’m not sure which to believe but I’m not too bothered tbh

Another thing, are CMF drafts allowed in this thread or do they have their own thread because I have a pretty cool draft that I reckon could be realistic

No. Just no.

unikitty blind bags are not being marketed as CMF.

More likely IMO is that they don't want to show the next CMF series while the current series is still being promoted. They don't want to steal the spotlight from Series 18.

CMF has a habit of leaking somewhat clsoe to release. the character sheet or packaging.

Probably we'll get more. That's what I think. Even if they do not sell well.

I sure hope so, they’d go nicely on a shelf like my Thrones Funko Pop! Figures

Today, Lego is designing the 2019 product or perhaps they have already finished its. I think it includes HP theme.

But if in 2018, the sell is horrible then tic will stop the wave.

Nah I don't think so, the cmf series should go alongside the sets. Besides I believe Unikitty isn't even a traditional CMF series, more of a replacement for Mixels.

Unikitty blind bags are already out now, so I doubt they will have any effect on the Harry Potter CMFs. In the UK, they are specific to one particular retailer anyway (tesco) so it is highly unlikely that they will delay HP CMFs.

Lego have just released a video on their Facebook page of the 3 new sets we have seen, I’m massively looking forward to seeing any missing sets (looking at you Aragog you creepy 8 legged-brickbuilt creature)

I’m on my phone so using the app and can’t get links, just go to their Facebook page, it’s nothing fantastic, just shows the pictures we’ve seen before in like a slideshow

Only telling y’all because it shows that they’re starting the official image releases so there might be more soon, the thing I find interesting is the fact that the Lupin minifig never leaked aside from the rumours that he’d be in the Willow, same with trolly witch

one large set and 22 minifigures to go, seems kinda like 50% of the content. Much to be excited for still!

Apologies if this has been covered before - but is it possible that Ollivander could be a promotional figure when the wave launches? I know that people were suggesting that his minifigure could be included with an upcoming book (which I do think is pretty likely), but I'm just putting the possibility out there given that we were talking about promos?

I don’t see why not, personally I could see anything happening with this wave at the minute bearing in mind went from Knight Bus to Hogwarts Express ?, and we might not be even getting Aragog (I hope to god that we do get him)
