LEGODalekbuster523 Posted September 18, 2015 I'd be surprised if there's no Harry Potter sets in 2016. Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them would be a perfect opportunity for the brand to return. I'd like to see returns for Hogwarts Castle and the Hogwarts Express alongside new sets based on the upcoming prequel. A set based on the American wizarding school set to appear in Fantastic Beasts would be amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tariq j Posted September 18, 2015 Harry Potter is apparently coming to Dimensions, so lets hope Lego do some sets. I suppose the fact that Lego are doing HP indicates that WB are interested in pursuing their licence with Lego. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose the fact that Lego are doing HP indicates that WB are interested in pursuing their licence with Lego. Wouldn't be surprised if true but where is the source of this wizardry? I solemnly swear I'm up to no good... EDIT: Oh. Just saw above post. Sorry. Edited September 18, 2015 by LEGODalekbuster523 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legomaster34 Posted January 24, 2016 Since we're starting to get set information for various themes' summer waves, I was wondering if anybody had heard anything about new Harry Potter sets? I was thinking if we were going to get them at all, we'd probably get a few in a summer wave before Fantastic Beasts in the fall, but I haven't seen anything. Sorry for posting in an older thread, but I thought asking here would be better than starting a new thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pulp Detective Posted March 23, 2016 I would be disappointed if the only thing we get out of all this are just a couple dimension packs.It's not like Lego has to go all out with this movie,they can just make 3 or 4 tie-in sets and that's all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pulp Detective Posted April 11, 2016 So we got a new trailer for the movie and it kinda worries me that we still haven't gotten at the very least a rumor concerning the sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pulp Detective Posted April 11, 2016 (edited) No sets. That's confirmed?? Edited April 11, 2016 by LOTR34 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Master_Data Posted April 11, 2016 LEGO didn't make sets every time a new Harry Potter film was released. Maybe they're waiting to see how well this is going to do before releasing anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pulp Detective Posted April 11, 2016 Well this is going to be a trilogy so we might get a few sets for the second movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CM4Sci Posted April 11, 2016 Well, as it has been stated a multiple amount of times, there will be a couple Dimensions packs but nothing has been heard for sets. We'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HawkLord Posted April 11, 2016 I don't think I've seen any kind of prelim pics for products tied to this movie. No action figures or anything of that sort. With that said, I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't get any Lego sets, outside the confirmed Dimensions stuff. Now if this movie does well, I can absolutely see Lego picking it up, but they might be playing a bit cautious given everything else they're running with licenses this year.

IMO I don't see how this movie won't do well. The Harry Potter franchise has a huge fan following, and the previous movies did very well. I know it is not the same storyline however it is a pretty nice tie in that will bring in a lot of people to watch it just due to it being under the HP brand. All we can do now is keep our fingers crossed for potential sets sometime next year. I definitely won't mind getting some Dimensions Packs though. Do we have any more information on those?

xboxtravis7992 Posted April 11, 2016 Curious to see how this pans out. I have a lot of first run Harry Potter sets, and the original Hogwarts Castle, Snape's Potion Class, and the Durmstrang ship are on display in my collection. But I missed out completely on all post-2004 sets, my only new Lego Harry Potter thing since then being the DK book with Yule Ball Harry. I'd be interested in a reboot of the theme, or even similar sets for Fantastic Beasts. The fact we haven't heard solid rumors yet though tells me 2017 would be a more likely time for Lego to release a theme. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think there's little doubt the movie will do well, but HP has just not had the same product-heavy side like Star Wars or whatnot. I mean Jurassic World destroyed the box office and they only had a small Lego line and even smaller, sadder action figure line (with no characters). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ookami Posted April 11, 2016 I can't just figure it out, how Lego decided to pick Angry Birds and Ghostbusters as licensed series, which definitely have less fans, than HP does Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legomaster34 Posted April 11, 2016 Even if we don't get a full wave of sets, I hope we might at least get a big Hogwarts set, like the Ghostbusters Headquarters. I know it's really unlikely, but I can hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrankyCentaur Posted April 11, 2016 Well, as it has been stated a multiple amount of times, there will be a couple Dimensions packs but nothing has been heard for sets. We'll see.

Amazing Bricks Posted April 11, 2016 Any news on what those packs will be? Or just the same stuff we know from before? There's going to be two fun packs if I recall correctly, Harry and Hermione to be exact :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CM4Sci Posted April 11, 2016 There's going to be two fun packs if I recall correctly, Harry and Hermione to be exact :) Yep, those are from the games files so I assume it's them. The FB ones are probably Newt and... someone else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to mention we're getting a new book, on Harry's birthday no less!, so this year HP is certainly on the forefront. Even if we don't get a full wave of sets, I hope we might at least get a big Hogwarts set, like the Ghostbusters Headquarters. I know it's really unlikely, but I can hope. I'd definitely love to see that, as I've been clamoring for a D2C Hogwarts since its reboot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
