krimimimi Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 Thanks, @lego_guyon02 and @mark1991t I finally found the piece from the interview. Mind, it's been translated back and forth twice now, but here it is from stonewars: Quote By the way, if fans want a certain set, Marcos Bessa recommends that you let LEGO know this via the feedback page. https://lego.com/productfeedback This is the most effective way to make yourself heard. Expand Somewhat confusingly, it forwards to the link mark1991t provided. On 1/19/2022 at 5:20 PM, BrickBob Studpants said: Lambasting their social media platforms with annoying hashtags, perhaps? That seems to have worked for the 501st Clone Trooper set …please don‘t actually do that Expand No, no, we most certainly wouldn't want to do that. And definitely not by using the link above. Definitely not. Quote
PotterBlocks Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 One of the new heads from the trunk has 'leaked', though doesn't really show anything we haven't seen in the official pics. People seem to be confusing it for a new head for a Stranger Things set though Quote

Expand I think we haven‘t seen the scared expression before, or have we? Yeah, apart from that, there‘s nothing new these leaks could show us. After all, we have full pictures of everything included in the March wave Quote

Yeah, apart from that, there‘s nothing new these leaks could show us. After all, we have full pictures of everything included in the March wave Expand They could show us what the fifth colour they're using for skin tones is actually like, which is so hard to tell from the official images. Currently human minifigures come in four colours in Licensed themes, but the trunk includes five. Quote

Expand Good point. I’d say it‘s either a new colour or a resurrected medium brown Hopefully the leaker will have their 2004 Spider-Man 2 sets ready to make a proper comparison Quote

He's been waiting a long time. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 I hope the small City and Marvel leaks today are just the advance party and the 2HY floodgates will be opened soon HP tends to be among the first themes to get descriptions, so fingers crossed! Quote
Textorix Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 When do we expect summer set names/descriptions to leak? Late February or early March? I need some hype as Hospital Wing and new Moments sets are kinda meh with exception to new minifigures. Quote

We just got descriptions of the 2HY Technic sets, so the other themes can‘t be far behind Quote
BacktoBricks Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 Does anyone know if Parvati's face from the Divination Moments book is a new print? I don't follow Marvel etc so just wondering if it's a reuse or fresh for her. :) Quote

BrickBob Studpants Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 I hope promobricks reveal the set descriptions the same way they did last year (if they‘re the ones to break the news in the first place, of course) Revealing the info via a live-streamed YT video was really exciting On 1/22/2022 at 2:03 PM, Clone OPatra said: I think it's very similar to her Yule Ball print but without the Bindi. Expand I‘m really grateful they actually created a new print for the twins. If this was any other theme, they‘d probably just continue to use the existing one Quote

Expand Yeah I was just wondering if they've used it anywhere else without the Bindi or if they've kept it exclusive to Parvati. 🤔 Quote

Teenagers aren‘t featured in that many sets outside of HP, so the new Patil sister face print isn‘t likely to show up elsewhere for the moment Quote

Lion King Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 So - we will rally get some Secrets of Dumbeldore sets this year? Quote

Expand Probably not but it would be nice, maybe a Niffler build. I think it would make some cool sets, like this temple from the trailer would look awesome: Quote

Expand The buildable creature is very likely to be from FB, and I think it's fairly possible that one of the August/Retail Exclusive playsets will be based on FB. Quote

Expand I think all of the sets besides the AC and the D2C are supposed to be released in June, just like last year Besides, a FB set released in August wouldn’t make much sense because that’s after the film’s original release date even Quote

I wasn't sure. In that case, those last two are probably retail exclusives, which is why they're listed after the D2C and AC. Quote

I'm having an operation tomorrow and it would be cool to know beforehand, something to think about and keep my mind off things. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) I think promobricks usually pick one theme at a time, which makes sense when you want to generate a more steady flow of traffic Dropping all articles at once would not be an optimal strategy On 1/24/2022 at 1:54 PM, BacktoBricks said: I really hope it's today. I'm having an operation tomorrow and it would be cool to know beforehand, something to think about and keep my mind off things. Expand Yeah, that would certainly be a nice distraction. I was in the same position last year I wish you all the best! Edited January 24, 2022 by BrickBob Studpants Quote

Expand Spent far too long in hospital last year, which with covid restrictions sucked more than usual / necessary. If you need an ear or just a distraction, feel free to PM. I mean that. And on the plus side, I can blither both lego and HP fairly fluently... Best of luck tomorrow. Quote
