Everyone's a winner! :)

Using them outside of HP world is what I intend to do. Especially Ravenclaw and Slyterin ones.

Just curious, has anyone made customs (or planning to make them) to go along with the new sets & CMF line??

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

I think it can be revealed each minute. The Ninjago City was also revealed about this time last year (21.06. I think).

I think it will be a September-release like Ninjago-City, because:

-August: Creator Car and Voltron

-September: ?

-October: most likely Cloud City and Holiday-Set (I don´t think that there will be another 500€ in this month)

And it can´t be later than October, because some Nanofigs already leaked.

They are all posted on Target's website, but since its Friday and I'm in a good mood, I went ahead and looked them all up for you!!  

Quidditch Match 75956 - 204-00-2218

Hogwarts Great Hall 75954 - 204-00-2217

Hogwarts Whomping Willow 75953 - 204-00-2216

Hogwarts Express 75955 - 204-00-2367

BrickHeadz - Ron Weasley & Albus Dumbledore 41621 - 204-00-2229

BrickHeadz - Harry Potter & Hedwig 41615 - 204-00-2223

BrickHeadz Hermione Granger 41616 - 204-00-2224

I'm guessing that if there are 60 minifigures per box, the ratio will be 3HP:2FB. Of course, even if that's right, it doesn't necessarily mean that each HP one will be equally common, or each FB one equally common.

Two questions:

1. What are we calling the new, articulated mid-sized legs? 'Teenage legs'? 'Articulated short legs' (which is somewhat inaccurate in my view)?
2. Do all the new legs - whatever we're calling them - have print/dual moulding or are any monochrome? If so, which ones?

Unfortunately, none of them are showing up as in stock on brickseek in my area.  Is anyone else seeing them available yet?

1- Midi-legs,Teenage legs or medium legs I think.

2- Neville does and Luna and Ravenclaw student (Cho ) probably do.

I can’t help but feel like there will be more Fantastic Beasts sets from the new movie. It seems too odd that there is only one to promote it (the suitcase is from the first movie). And the fact that we haven’t seen a young Dumbledore minifigure yet tells me there is something else. I feel like there will be a bigger fall wave of sets or a January wave for this movie. And I would be delighted if some more HP sets accompanied them that soon but that’s doubtful

I will be waiting at the door to Target on Sunday morning when they open. I can’t wait any longer than I absolutely have to. I live in a pretty small area so I shouldn’t have to fight too many people to get to them

Good luck! I'm also heading to Target right as it opens on Sunday. These are available for shipping on 6/30. I'm wondering if there is a better chance at getting these sets if we order online for in-store pick up?

[Legochaek]

In the USA, is newts suitcase out on August 1st? Because it’s not coming up on Target or S&H. 

[Huigberts Builds]

Does anyone know when the CMF serie and the sets will come out in the Netherlands?

I think you should be okay. You probably won't fight anyone at all. I personally think that alot of people still don't know that the sets got moved up from Aug 1 (very unclear communication on Lego's behalf). And the Lego HP fanbase is nowhere near the size of Lego Star Wars fanbase and those sets didn't sell out on the well advertised Force Friday. I think my only concern is that they might not put them out until later in the day. Alot of stores take their time putting stuff out. Anyways good luck!

I called my local Lego Store (I'm in the UK) and the employer said the Brickheads were released today but the sets are not coming until August 1st. I am seriously disgusted if we have to wait a month longer when it's written by a British writer and set here.

Possibly, but I always thought that getting them at the store in person adds so much to the experience of it. Either way, good luck to you too!

I asked an employee at Target if they would be stocked when they open. He said probably but if they aren’t I can ask for them and they will bring them to me from storage. He said they won’t stock them until they have enough to fill a section of the shelf but I can still request them from the back as long as it’s not before the release

Awesome, Balrogofmorgoth ! Thanks for sharing what the Target employee said! I was actually too shy to ask if they weren't on shelves but now I feel much braver.

I'm probably going to replace Cho Chang's head with the head from Rose Tico, and match her hands to fit. I think it will be a much closer look for her actress Katie Leung.
