Super low res image of the Hospital Wing box.

Grey Lady has skirt printing. Ron and Harry in their robes but not Hermione. It appears Lupin’s transformation is shown, so maybe a second head piece?

didn´t purist mean only using original pieces not keeping minifigures 100% like in the sets? xD

Yes, but I’m more extreme by not modifying anything, not even swapping hairpieces  That requires a different term. Ultrapurist?

Too bad the Hospital Wing pic is such bad quality! I like what I see tho ^^

Harry and Ron (and Penelope) in robes and Hermione in post-Timeturner antics clothes seems like such an odd choice. And adding Lupin's transformation to the whole mess? They should have paired the Hospital Wing with Sirius Black's Escape instead of DADA and (randomly) Ravenclaw, that would have made so much more sense.

Yes it does feel like they’ve picked random parts of PoA and put them all into one set. They should have really just focused on the Ravenclaw common room and the DADA classroom on this one.

I like the fassade at least... it will make a solid foundation for a moc with a huge sale.

i really wish they would have  made the buildings deeper, so the classroomms on top of the cliffs can be pulled out, too.

Yep, with only Flying Lesson’s small modules being swappable above ground is disappointing.

At this rate nearly all Hogwarts classes are going to be taught underground. :-) Though I guess for Divination and Astronomy they could just cram a crystal ball or a telescope into some roof area and call it a day.

Well... oh, boy... thinking about that... i hope the last "lesser known teacher in a big expansion" spot diesn't get wasted on a remake of the already perfect Sinistra. Making her classroom a roof area with a telescope sounds exactly like something Lego would do.

Well, might not be complete anyways, and normally more Sets go on discount on Black Friday rather than Insiders days, so some smaller Sets could follow. And the big ones that are going to retire are already sold out here anyways.

Looking at the blurry Hospital Wing box image, it looks like we're getting Hermione in the pink hoodie. I think we've had that in three versions and four sets before (2022 Sirius' Rescue, Hospital Wing, Shrieking Shack, and 2019 Hagrid's Hut), and I'm wondering about its inclusion in this set. She uses the Time Turner in the Infirmary in that outfit, except it's with Harry, and the reason they're there is Ron with his injured leg, and neither of the boys have those outfits.

* What are your guesses as to why she's in the hoodie (what scene and / or builds are likely), and

* what do you think its presence here means for scenes / sets we're likely to see (or not see) in sets in the near future?

[BrickBob Studpants]

A slightly better image has surfaced! Hermione has the TLBM Batgirl hairpiece (I think?) and Lupin‘s also appears to be different ^^ The Grey Lady is definitely a new version too!

[Gorilla94]

The grey Lady looks promising. Now I want Crookshanks and the Bloody Baron and I am good minifigure-wise :)

I am very interested to see how it all ends up. I could see the next (and last) big expansion being the viaduct and front view of the Quad. Then the new hospital wing can be put next to it on the right side to finish the front fassade. By now I severly doubt we will see a the astronomy tower and am sure we won't get the clock tower. I played around in stud.io a bit. The clock tower would be such a perfect Set for the System. It needs to be only a few studs wider and deeper than the last iteration and it would fit smaller pullout rooms rooms perfectly

If that is the hairpiece being used for Hermione, and it certainly does look like some kind of ponytail updo hairpiece, then I really don't understand the change. She doesn't wear her hair like that in any of the scenes and the last hairpiece is accurate enough. Is it the same hairpiece used for Disney Belle maybe?

I can't quite tell with Lupin, but Penelope seems to be using the same side swept blonde hair as Slytherin robed Daphne Greengrass and Hannah Abbott in her Christmas sweater, so I hope she has a more grown up face print or she will literally be the same minfigure just in Ravenclaw robes.

I'm not sure that's the Batgirl hair, it looks sorta like it has bangs. It does sorta look like an updo, but i think that bit in the back might be a brick behind her head on the build.

To me it looks like long hair swept over her shoulders, but I could be wrong. I'd love to get a new hairpiece that actually represents her hairstyle from this movie.

I'm still hopeful we'll get the Clock Tower since it's such an iconic part of the Castle and a personas favourite, even if i has been left out of the Micro-scale sets.

The upcoming Hospital Wing already includes a lot of POA themed scenes but there's still the the Divination Classroom and Sirus's escape, which happens in a different tower but he also flies away with Buckbeak from the Clocktower Courtyard later in that scene. Or they do what they did  in 2019 and just have the Clock Tower interiors be themed to a completely different film (Goblet of Fire, in that case).

There appears to be a hook piece on the side wall shown that should connect to the Main Tower, so if there is a clip or hook piece on the other side it would mean the Clocktower should be coming or that Lego just wants you to have a lot of freedom where placing each set.

Images are supposed to be officially release Dec 1, so a week and a half left

Hermione natural collocation is in Hospital. Depending on wether the hoodie is dirty and torn or not the scene is after or before using the Timeturner to travel to the past in order to save Buckbeak and Sirius. Clearly having no minifigures connected with the Hospital in a set named Hospital Wing is too much also for LEGO  Is it true that Penelope Clearwater was petrified by the basilisk, so you can put her in the Hospital, but it's a thing book related and not so relevant .

The second question is interesting, but it's so hard to read into LEGO developers mind to predict future - I'm not good in Occlumency nor in Divination  Hermione appeared in this outfit in 2022 Hogwarts Hospital Wing, Shrieking Shack and Sirius's Rescue and in the 2019 Hagrid's Hut. Maybe LEGO is going to reuse this hoodie, assuming it's a new version of the older ones.

I would rule out a new Hagrid's Hut, 'cause we already had a hut in the "most detailed castle".

A Shriecking Shack remake would be interesting, for people that hasn't one yet. I don't know if the 2022 version is good paired with the Hogsmeade Village set, probably yes; likely a Shriecking Shack remake wouldn't be so different from the previous one.

Sirius's Rescue remake doesn't convince me. I didn't buy the previous version - too expensive for what it is. I think that to work well with this castle, Dark Tower need to be very tall, while even a Flying Lesson treatment is likely too much for the small action taking place in the scene. And it's not simple for me see the Clock Tower and its Courtyard as part of this castle, even if a lot of people asks LEGO for it.

Oh, well, maybe in the end LEGO will take the unsold Forbidden Forest: Magical Creatures sets, remove children Ron and Hermione, put inside teen Hermione and Harry and rename it Forbidden Forest: Waiting for Dementors

I want to drop a thought. We all assume the next big set is the viaduct entrance including the chamber. If they give us a proper one with entrance and the way to get there via myrtles bathroom the underground section will already be completely taken. So as logical as a Slytherin common room would be I don‘t think there is the space. That‘s why I thought it may come with the Ravenclaw one. But this one is now already in the hospital wing set. And now I got the idea that maybe the reasoning is the number of ghosts per set. That Myrtle will be part of the viaduct/chamber set and they won’t have a second ghost in and therefore already put it all together in the smaller set and the viaduct entrance won‘t come with a common room. What do you guys think of that thought?

I think we can't predict very much anymore. It made sense to me to include in each big expansion a house ghost, common room and a big creature. With the hospital wing this idea is (sadly) gone.

I can't see why we would not get two ghosts in one set (probably without a new lesser known teacher in exchange... :/) in the end lego wants people to buy their products. It would be stupid not to release the bloody baron at some point. I think the most relevant scenes from the chamber of secrets are the bathroom where they brew the potion, the slytherin common room and the chamber. It should be possible to fit those into a set. I mean we got all the challenges from the first movie in the main tower.

Edited November 24, 2025 by Gorilla94

So far we've already had a Hospital Wing without Pomfrey, Ravenclaw on the first floor, DADA in the dungeons, and the utterly nonsensical layout of the Main Tower where you battle your way through all the underground challenges and then walk up to Dumbledore's Office in order to get to the Mirror. Oh, and Quirrell wasn't even included in the set which had all the challenges and the Mirror, but in the Great Hall instead. Also the bizarre inclusion of Marcus Flint in his Quidditch robes in the Main Tower, where he feels utterly out of place - he would have made a ton more sense in a Slytherin Common Room. I wouldn't, therefore, be at all surprised if the Slytherin Common Room is now located up in a tower and/or if characters importan to CoS or intrinsic to the location (like the Bloody Baron) deliberately show up in another set. (Or even if they keep the Bloody Baron back for another bloody GWP since they know people want him, but let's not give them any more ideas.)

Luckily, the Bloody Baron as he appeared in the movies really needs a brand new hair mold. GWPs never really introduce new molds, so as long Lego doesn’t do a Louis XIV style character in a CMF we don’t really need to worry about them locking him behind a limited time threshold like that.

I think having two ghosts in one set shouldn't be a problem for LEGO. In my opinion, having Ravenclaw in Hospital Wing is caused by the pattern LEGO is maybe following. I wrote a similar thing on Reddit Lego Harry Potter two days ago, so maybe you've already read it 

SHORT VERSION: the fact that Ravenclaw isn't in a big set like others Common Room - I assume the next summer main set will have Slytherin one - is a strong clue that LEGO is following a 3 year pattern like in the past, maybe connected with the Harry Potter TV series, said to be scheduled for the beginning of 2027 in USA. Hovewer, likely LEGO has a back up plan with a further wave in summer 2027, for the current castle; but not being sure about it they decided to put Ravenclaw Common Room in a minor set.

LONG VERSION: LEGO is following a 3 year pattern, like the past two Hogwarts castles (2018-2020 and 2021-2023). There is space for only 3 summer main sets (Great Hall, Main Tower, Viaduct Entrance - maybe with the Astronomy Tower) and a bunch of minor castles addon (Owlery, Boathouse, Dueling Club, Flying Lesson, Hospital Wing, Sorting Ceremony, Herbology) and switchable sets (Classes). This Hogwarts castle will end with January 2027, while summer 2027 will be the starting point for a new Hogwarts castle - likely smaller and maybe connected with the Harry Potter TV series that is scheduled to be on air at the beginning of 2027 in USA.

Now, Harry Potter TV series is something to take in consideration. We don't really know if LEGO will entirely switch from movies to TV series - I think it also strongly depends on what's the agreement between LEGO and Warner Bross, marketing research and so on... it's not impossible that LEGO will produce a new castle, based on TV series, aimed to the new Harry Potter fan, but that can interest also the old Harry Potter fan that appreciate the new series or want to add something new in their collection. Maybe they'll continue the Collectors' sets aimed at AFOL, like the January 2026 Philosopher Stone Collectors' Edition; maybe not.

Here's, hovewer, there's a problem: while is it true that the TV series is scheduled at the beginning of 2027, it's not impossible that it could be delayed for some technical issues. It would be strange for LEGO not having a backup plan.

So, likely LEGO is planning or will plan also a summer 2027 wave for the current Hogwarts castle. But they're not sure about it, so they couldn't put Ravenclaw in those sets: having only 3 out of 4 Houses in the "most detailed Hogwarts castle" would surely be a huge failure and it would have serious negative marketing consequences. Harry Potter LEGO fans can survive without Umbridge's office, maybe with some complaints, but can't accept having "the most detailed Hogwarts Castle" with all but one Common Room, I think.

In any case, TV series or not, having Ravenclaw Common Room in a minor winter set is, for me, a strong clue on the fact that the current Hogwarts castle is meant to last 3 years as the previous ones.

 

Of course, this is simply just my 2 cents .

Except as @brickbride points out, they haven't been too fussed about locations. They can always make the other rooms in such a tower... whatever. Something still missing and possibly from another book. Umbridge's office, as a for instance...

Binns would cover ghost and obscure teacher in one. (I'm hoping... ) Pixies, Neville, and Lockhart in DADA are one scene that comes to mind. Another is Filch and Mrs Morris, or discovering the writing on the wall.

I couldn't help noticing Ariel the Little Mermaid was a mermaid of colour exclusively only for 2023. By 2024, it was about half and half classic!Ariel and the new one. By 2025, it's strictly back to the classic version. I find people are generally resistant to change, so I remain curious to see what happens here. It's a pity we don't find out what's in those agreements.

I don't think, generally speaking, they pivot that quickly, and this would account at least for the main summer set and a side castle set. I doubt they'll waver either way with something that substantial to the theme. 

That said, is this remotely normal, taking so long to produce a television show? It all seems unusually protracted.

Your use of "minor room" has me thinking. lego knows better than anyone how the sales of the Flying Lesson are doing, a somewhat lacklustre "minor" set. I can't imagine they're great, especially as it basically doesn't go on sale, and we still don't know where it goes in the castle. So I have to wonder if shifting Ravenclaw to this set might be part of an effort to increase its appeal. I could definitely see that being part of the motivation.

Well, but Hospital Wing - not considering Ravenclaw - promise to be a stronger set than Flying Lesson one. Lupin is a well-known and appreciate character and his boggart class, even if without Snape in Neville-grandmother's-outfit is surely better than the tiny and empy Transfiguration classroom and the Quidditch stuff closet - basically a filler meant to be switch with Charm classroom set; Hospital is surely a better location, also for playability, than McGonagall office and Trophies Room. And Hospital Wing, on contrary than Flying Lesson, has a pretty collocation, behind Quad Entrance, 'cause it's part of the Quad itself. Now, imagine not having Ravenclaw Common Room with Grey Lady but Mrs Pomfry and a filler room or Divination classroom with Trelawney and no Mrs Pomfrey: a set like this would have towered above Flying Lesson.

There's something else to consider, when thinking about how long a Hogwarts castle last: the longer it last the more numerous are the sets LEGO has to keep on shelves, in their warehouse and in production. LEGO is already retiring Boathouse, a set that is relevant, in my opinion, for the Hogwarts layout, but a 4 year long castle would mean for LEGO to keep on shelves Great Hall, Main Tower and other two big sets. I imagine that removing one would seriously affect sales of all the others. People that wouldn't find all the sets on shelves could simply wait for a new castle.
