The Dangerous HC Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Just now, Robert8 said: That would need at least 4 new moulds. Too much for a D2C. Maybe the Locket will appear latter with a Regulus minifigure. Or even with an alternate Dolores Umbridge minifigure and the Diadem could appear in a Room of Requirement set. Not necessarily, the locket could be the medal (not ideal but could be done) and the diadem could just be a tiara Quote

They could use a chrome silver broadsword as the Sword of Gryffindor (same piece as the 2010 Hogwarts) and they could use a regular gold goblet with a badger printed on it as Hufflepuff’s cup. I’d like to see molds for the locket and diadem and two new molds for a D2C isn’t out of the question (the Silent Mary had two new molds). Quote
Whovastron Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Does anyone know any more info about this event? Is it just press that can go Quote
Legochaek Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 So Voltron is one of the VIP early access sets. Hope the other one is Hogwarts. Quote

The earliest possible date of D2C Hogwarts' release is september. In that case it could be officially revealed on July 31, Harry Potter's birthday, but that's just my wishful thinkng, don't take my words for granted Quote
Duffyoran Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Does anyone know if there were any sets found @ tesco stores? Quote

Especially the car. It should be HP Quote

HP might be in too high demand, casing them to be under stocked by the official release something which blew up in their faces for the UCS Century eagle. Quote

What’s the point of being a VIP if I only get early access to useless sets? Edited June 28, 2018 by Balrogofmorgoth Quote

They may be useless to you but not to everyone. The point of being VIP is really the reward points. VIP early access isn't really a blockade for anyone. If you try and buy a set that is VIP during early access they just sign you up real quick. Quote

I guess eBay might be an option. Nope, they typically don't stock "occult" products and they include Harry Potter in that. 44 minutes ago, Balrogofmorgoth said: What’s the point of being a VIP if I only get early access to useless sets?

They do go back on their beliefs sometimes though; they didn’t stock Doctor Who products for about 5 years, but returned to stocking them Quote

I've not been in one for years, but it used to be the case - they didn't sell the previous LEGO HP ranges. Also they removed the witches and the vampires from CMF S2. I don't know if they sold S14.

They don't stock things they disagree with, and they don't open on Sundays or bank holidays. It might seem unusual, but they've survived as a national toy store when Toys R Us couldn't. They even have more branches than Toys R Us did before they went bankrupt. Quote

Balrogofmorgoth Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Now can they finally just reveal the D2C??? I hate how mysterious it has to be. It’s been long enough, come on Quote
