According to @Brick Clicker, the Hogsmeade set is gonna be $380, so almost as much as DA

With nearly 2300 less pieces  it would cost more per piece than Diagon Alley - even with the current higher price - and Gringotts. But it would be less expensive, per piece, than some regular sets.

Similar price to piece to the Burrow, so altogether not terrible but not great.

I'm leaning now towards it likely won't be set up like Diagon Alley since the narrowness of the street isn't important, but more a few shops laid out with a winter scene in between. That would allow for some large plate pieces that would be indicated with the price to piece ratio.

In the usual place, a sketch about QQS and Fortescue's Diagon Alley set.

[Ferder]

Fortescue is a corner set, so seems like they took inspiration from the Wizarding World Theme Park store, rather than the Leavesden studio film set version. That makes sense considering this line also includes Owl Post which has only ever appeared at the Park.

The minifigs are Ron, Hermione, Cho, Fortescue, a Gryffindor Quidditch player (Angelina?), and a random witch with Sprout’s hat/hairpiece  Decent selection!

At this point I hope you are right. Otherwise EUR 380 seems like a ripoff for what sounds like 2 to 3 (if that) 16×32 baseplates worth of houses.

I'm kind of baffled that they have just given us a microscale DA where Fortescue's was clearly not a corner building and are now deviating from it already.

I like that the D2C set is based on the studio set while the playsets are more based on the theme park  Sets them apart nicely ^^

[brickbride]

But the microscale DA isn't a D2C, is it?

The D2C is a whole other story, but given that it's several years old I don't expect continuity there.

No the microscale isn't a D2C. :)

My bad, I thought you were talking about the 2020 set  Still, I think it’s neat we have sets depicting both versions!

• 76452 Quality Quidditch Supplies & Ice Cream (99,99$): Harry, probably Ron, Fortescue; one or two Quidditch-associated students (likely Angelina, Lee Jordan, or Cho Chang); unnamed QQS shopkeep; one or two more customer for the ice cream shop

Quoting my own predictions from mid-March. I had Harry in place of Hermione and figured that at this price point we might get more than six figs, but otherwise I was spot on.

[BacktoBricks]

Do we think the girl with a red outfit and ponytail hair is going to be Hermione or another student as Hermione doesn't normally have ponytail hair? Any suggestions?

[brickbride]

It says Hermione. She actually does have a ponytail on occasion, for example here in DH:

The description I saw has a question mark at the end like the person wasn't sure which is why I ask as I guess they weren't definitively sure just from seeing the picture. And this would be from the younger years where I don't remember her wearing a ponytail although I know Lego does take creative licence.

In the later films, sure. But looking on the "sketch" which looks more like he has drawn the lines of the actual leaked picture it looks like the minifigures have short legs, so hermione would be wearing open hair then - unless I am missing a scene where she indeed had a ponytail in the first films.

I wouldn´t rule it out at least. But at the same time I have no idea who else it would be supposed to be, since all figures that come to mind that you could mistake for Hermione wouldn´t wear a ponytail in their first years either.

[BrickBob Studpants]

Yeah, PS/CoS Hermione never has a ponytail, so this might be a different character? Maybe just a random shopper?  If so, kinda funny to have Ron as the only member of the trio in a set this large!

[Gryffindor]

If it’s not Hermione, it’s probably Katie Bell, right? She would likely have that hair and she would make sense to include since she plays Quidditch.

[brickbride]

Just found this on Amazon: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/LEGO®-Harry-PotterTM-Luna-Thestral/dp/1837250812#

At first glance, there doesn‘t seem to be anything exclusive about Luna? They must like the subject matter a lot, though, because we've already had the Thestral Carriage and now we are to get Brickheadz as well.

She didn´t wear a ponytail in the first films either, though on the other side I am not actually sure there is a hairpiece that really represents her, but there are way better options than a ponytail for sure.

Yeah, but the books having anything exclusive is actually quite rare anyways. And I do wonder, since the books are not sold by Lego, who actually decides what they want to include (with Lego of course (and very likely Warner too) having the final decision ofc.

We've had some exclusive book minifigs in the past, like Prefect Percy and Rita Skeeter.

Also I'd think that the book would be designed in cooperation with LEGO from the start. That is, I don't expect them to design an entire book around Luna and a Thestral and then go to LEGO and be like "Can we have a minifig of Luna with a buildable Thestral, will that be okay?" I imagine they'd get together with LEGO and be like "What's a good subject for this book that a) kids will like, b) won't infringe on your current sets, and c) can make use of your existing minifig parts?" The Thestral Carriage was in 2021 (I think) and is no longer on the shelves, nor is Luna in her Ravenclaw uniform (my guess is that this fig was taken from the 2021 Chamber of Secrets), so reusing her makes sense.

Yeah, but those are ch the DK encyclopedias, they always have exclusive minifigs! The activity books are a different category

The set already includes an older Gryffindor Quidditch player (likely Angelina), so I think it‘s a random student instead  Katie is a good candidate for the Hogsmeade D2C set tho!

Haha me too, that's why I thought I'd ask you guys.

Time Ron got his moment to shine I'd say, even if he is a repeat.

That's a good suggestion. Katie was one year above Harry so she should technically have mid legs if this is Chamber of Secrets Ron, but then Ron would have visited DA in his first year and even before I'm sure. She would make sense as a Quidditch player, but then again I don't think they'd necessarily be so generous as to give us so many known characters.

I'm leaning more towards random student too just like we got the random student in the wheelchair in Ollivander's. 

I hope the Hogsmeade D2C doesn't just stick to the basic trio, the Flumes, Rosmerta etc and does give us characters like Katie who I can't see turning up anyway else in her winter outfit.

Like I said, it is a rare thing usually included in the more expensive books. Also depends on what we see as a exclusive minifigure ofc, for me it would have to include at least one exclusive part - if we count characters that are just using one different part then we would end up with way more exclusive fics (most of them with plain instead of printed legs)

Yeah, I mean that they work together is pretty clear. I meant more, if they have a meeting and then say, hey we would love to make a book including Luna and a buildable thestral, and Lego employees say, oh cool give us a week to make some quick models or something like that.

As for Luna, the torso, legs and face print is used in the great hall, so the only thing that isn´t in production anyways is the hair. And I would guess that they make the whole batch at once and send it to the book comany so it wouldn´t be any different than making a gwp.

My guess would be the following:

• Harry, Ron, & Hermione
• Draco & Pike
• Rosmerta
• Aberforth (plus his goat patronus please, despite it not appearing in the movies!)
• Katie
• Mr & Mrs Flume
• A random student
• Slughorn*

* Purely based on his 2020 faceprint being used in the Shire. I doubt they brought it back just for a random hobbit
