Having just built some of the One Piece sets, I‘m now wondering whether the portraits will continue to appear in the 1HY sets at least. I‘m still missing two of them, and resorting to Bricklink isn‘t fun  The chocolate frog cards ended after two years, so it‘s not super likely, but it‘d be a nice thing to continue since it‘s still the same castle system and unlike the cards, the portraits are actually incorporated into the builds!

The other System was 20 years of Hogwarts, so with this one there is just not reason for it to end earlier, would actually bet it will stay around.

I'd expect them to continue because they are also an easy way to decorate hallways and dungeons in otherwise boring parts of sets.

If by some miracle I don't have all of them when they stop releasing them, I have already decided to email Lego customer service and ask for my missing ones. So far I have collected each set that contains them so I think it is fair to expect to get a full set in that scenario.

They are all thrown together though, so not sure if they would even send you a certain piece or rather just a random one if there would be any complaints.

Doesn't matter much since the stickers at least are exclusive.

Since I don't collect the new Hogwarts system I don't care either way. But I do wonder who this is meant for. The new Hogwarts sets all aren't exclusive or even part-exclusive except for the Flying Lesson (which doesn’t make the spending limit) so it would be unprofitable to buy them for the GWP, and people who buy other sets (such as DA which goes EOL this year) might not have much use for it. Is LEGO trying to encouage resellers?

Resellers would have the same Problem as the normal costumer, though - and honestly, the threshold is still priced pretty fair, so given there are also supposed to be discounts, along with the insiders points and the gwps I don´t think buying from Lego is actually a bad deal - problem could be of course, when you already got all the sets.

True, but I was meaning for me personally as a predominantly minifigure collector. I'm not collecting the new Hogwarts as tempting as the Main Tower has been, so the GWP only held value for me in the minifigure it included, so now I don't have to make a purchase.

Out of interest, what does everybody think of the Hogsmeade sign? 

For me it holds no value, as it is neither traditional Lego bricks nor does it look like anything particular, so in one way it seems like a very lame GWP for such a big purchase. On the other hand, I am grateful that Hogsmeade does not come with an exclusive and desirable set which makes me either need to purchase it or buy on the secondhand market. From other comments I've seen, other people too just think it will be good to sell it on and effectively get some money off Hogsmeade, so I'm not sure who the sign is really marketed at. I'm guessing it's just a chase exclusivity thing or a very small market of those who like Lego trinkets?

I think it is good that people get something exclusive but not really something that people would really "need", so you can buy smaller sets instead to just get the polybag and the Room of Requirements GWP and buy Hogsmeade later on with discounts

Hey all!

Since we’re all pondering what new sets could be in store for the future, and since LEGO does appear to be listening to our requests in some regard (Lovegood House, Malfoy Manor, a better Hagrid’s Motorbike set, Dobby’s Sock, etc.), I’m just curious what sets you all might like to see in the future! Despite some remakes, I feel there is still definitely some room for new sets or some improvement for older ones! 

Great list! I’ve borrowed it and developed it into my own list: 

• DH advent calendar with DH Ron, Luna from the wedding etc
• DH wedding tent with Bill, Fleur, Death Eater, and an outstanding Mr Lovegood figure in his gold suit.
• HBP Astronomy Tower: Slughorn Potions Class in the basement, his office at ground level and Astronomy classroom above etc.
• OotP Battle of the Department of Mysteries / Hall of Prophecies (death Eater battle pack, at least 2 for £20). Build is the moving door, shelves of prophecies etc. 
• OotP Hogwarts castle section with the following rooms: 1 Room of Requirement with Cho & Neville, 2 Umbridge’s office with a new Umbridge, Filtch, 3 exam hall with fireworks, Fred & George, Harry etc. 
• OotP advent calendar which is mixed between G.Place and the RoR: draws are a new recolour of one of the dog moulds for Ron’s pratronus, and missing member Doge (he was in the background of the Privit Drive broomstick scene), and a repeat Death Eater. 
• GoF First Task Remake: ~£125: four dragons built to the same size and standard as the Gringotts Dragon + a bit of arena (see 76088), four champions, 3 head teachers + Rita (new variant)
• PoA Lupin’s Boggart Class module as is own classroom module set
• CoS Lockheart’s Pixie class as its own classroom module set, includes dragon skeleton.
• Divination classroom as its own classroom module
• Prefect bathroom as a small (Charms class) size module, with shirtless Harry & Myrtle, golden egg, maybe some extra creative liberties such as gold statue of a merperson. 
• CoS Slytherin Common Room in a large Hogwarts section, perhaps merged with Myrtle’s toilet and the COS proper. 
• PS/SS Unicorn in the Forbidden Forest: with Fang again and a new Hagrid version.

Would this threat also be the right place to discuss modifications for the current castle system?

I have to say I really dislike the Gryffindor common room in the main tower after mocing the hufflepuff one conpletely. I wound a way to include the background pictures from the older house banner sets in modular common rooms, which is incompaticle with havind the Common room in the second floor next to the Main tower... I thought about removing Fluffy, but I like him being placed above the devils snare... it would be cool to work with others on possible modifications. I already made a bunch of improvements on the great hall.

I think so. I'm waiting till the modular wave is done to really start modifying anything to know what I want to add that wasn't included Like Mic Mac Padwac on Rebrickable has some great additions for the COS and Polyjuice Bathroom, but I am waiting to see if Lego does those scenes themselves.

One modification I do plan to make soon is how to better connect the Great Hall and Main Tower. I don't like the gap between the buildings and want to figure out some basic wall to connect the two.

Regarding house Hourglasses:

They might be included in the House Sorting set coming soon, otherwise I think they would be a good addition to a future Advent Calendar.

I love your additions!!

Your castle expansions would be so cool to see come true, particularly the OotP one and HBP one because we hardly ever get sets from those films! 

Also, I never considered a first task with all 4 dragons, but now that’s a must-have (though I doubt Lego will create that)!

Those are super cool!! Let’s hope they are included in the sorting hat set, but if not, I might have to create some customs inspired by yours!

Those are gorgeous. May we get pictures from more angles?

Thanks! I might post instructions in my story 

[Accio Lego]

Harry Potter polybag next year apparently is 30724: Dumbledore’s Office with Harry – 42 pieces. Best candidates for the specific scene would either CoS (meaning we could get Fawkes in a polybag!) or GoF with the pensieve (although there also pensieve scenes in HBP and DH2 that could work I suppose). 

[Gorilla94]

Hm... A thing I thought about: are we sure we will get a new modular castle series with the tv series? I could imagine lego to just let Modules go off shelves and release new ones with interior for later movies.

You can't really make Lego HP sets without some castle sets. I mean the series mainly takes place in a castle.

I think we all expect Lego to mix movie and TV sets together for a while, so it wouldn't be surprising if the TV sets are whatever book is currently coming out and the movie sets are the later movies so as not to have two different PS, COS, etc... themed sets out there. I could easily see a new King's Cross in 2027 or maybe they release a zoo themed set since it is confirmed Piers Polkiss appears in the TV series. Rumors have WB doing more pre-Hogwarts scenes than in the movies.

Rumors have WB doing more pre-Hogwarts scenes than in the movies.

The TV series will have around 6 hours of runtime in its first season, so there will definitely be scope for more characters & scenes than the first movie could ever fit in, but that doesn't guarantee that we'll get more content / missing characters in Lego sets. Since the TV series is meant to attract new (and usually younger) viewers to HP, I would expect most tie-in sets to be smaller pocket-money-sized sets compared to the larger movie-based sets for adults with disposable income. Looking back at the original 2001 sets, I wouldn't be surprised to see Lego make equivalent sets for the TV show, albeit not quite as many.

[Virginia_Bricks]

5 new set numbers leaked and rumored to be either a March/June wave. I wonder if Lego plans to increase the line size with the new TV show

Also piece counts for January sets are leaking. 907 for the Hospital Wing

Anyone else having issues with the lego store? It's not showing the 01 Sep offers for me, no GWP, no ordering new sets...

New stuff usually gets added on s@h at 12pm GMT, so 1am CET ^^

[krimimimi]

CET here, so midnight is 25+ minutes passed... I don't know if I was interested in a new set before, but I'm used to the GWPs going live at midnight, and they aren't showing in my cart yet either. Or is this a daylight savings issue? (I'm definitely not staying up till 2am. )

10 HP sets are presently showing up as 2x Insider points and there are five sets with their prices reduced. If anyone stateside is interested, change your zone for a sneak preview.

Man that advent calendar is a let down… literally no redeeming features.

From an AFOL perspective for sure. As a kid I would have adored the cute builds. The potions would have offered a lot of play value to me playing with friends.

[Virginia_Bricks]

Sales and 2x VIP points sets didn’t line up with what I wanted so waiting till Insiders Weekend to get Gringotts and/or Hogsmeade. Also surprised how quickly Malfoy Manor went on backorder in the US.

In rumor news, it looks like the 18+ Philosophers Stone set next year will be mini-fig scale since the price per piece is greater than 0.10.

I had the thought the set would be a diorama of all the challenges like 77015 Lost Temple, complete with quotes and mechanisms at each stage. But I’m not sure now after the Main Tower set.

Exactly. That would have made perfect sense if the challenges weren’t already featured in the Main Tower! I mean, they could still do it since one is a playset that’s part of the castle system, while the other is a display model for adults, so they wouldn’t necessarily cannibalise each other.

Still a strange choice, if so. My guesses are either a collection of buildable items (despite the PPR suggesting a minifig set) or some type of diorama. Since the set’s named after the entire movie rather than a specific scene in it, maybe it’s a recreation of the poster or a mural, akin to the Wicked wall art set that just released?

I would feel stronger about a repeat of the challenges if the Main Tower was not $260 USD. While a play set, it approached D2C prices and feels like they would cannibalize each other. But maybe that is me hoping for something I would want to buy (though with 20 Pokemon sets next year I wouldn't mind a lot of sets that don't interest me to save some money).

The price range is in line with 77015 (plus inflation) and the piece count is nearly identical, so something similar to that is a good guess.

The PPR is not the best indicator for the contents of a set though. For instance, the Wicked wall art set is $160 for 1518 pcs, so in a similar ballpark as the upcoming PS set with $170 for 1571 pieces
