Yes, but the 2010 one was better.

I'm not sure how. Didn't both of her  2010 variations just reuse other characters torsos... I mean the reused uniform particularly was annoying, the slightly messy look of it was completely out of character.

At least the Dimensions variation was actually accurate to one of her costumes.

I made a visual list of all the characters I think should be worth getting made,  then I removed the ones rumored to be in the set/cmf.

Even with a second wave or minifigure series i can see a lot of them being missed out in favour of legos plain choices, such a shame.

4 ghosts, 2 parents and 3 relatives. could instead have been 9 of the more colorful featured characters. f.ex ALL the remaining teachers.

The d2c hopefully makes a nice dent in the list.

Yes, but her hair colour is really terrible.:wacko:

So that's four more than was listed, and makes it 6 unknown ones. I guess that gives some hope.

Was about to post it, but got a visit, so you beat me to it :tongue:
Where do that put the credibility to the rumoured CMF list, it should have 2 more unknown figs :sceptic:
I still think it sounds like a legit list, but a little more sceptic :sceptic:

At least it's a piece that's available in other colors, so an easy swap can be made. The lack of unique/accurate printing has less purist solutions.

But honestly, I don't really think either color they've chosen looks right on her. So I would be happy to see her completely revamped.

The new summer catalogue has a bunch of blacked out boxes for FB/HP. Looks like the banner won’t be “J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World”- there are two separate theme names, “Harry Potter” and “Fantastic Beasts”.

That's much better IMO, at least we know that we won't have a Death Star situation with both Fantastic Beasts and HP on Hogwarts.

We still can't say for curtain that the D2C won't do that.

My main problem is the face. It's generic and so not...Emma Watson.

Nice, I think you captured the essentials quite nicely. I'd probably only add the Triwizard Champions, Crabbe and Goyle, a Dementor, Hagrid, and Percy. (And although they're not human, I simply insist that they give us Fang, Fawkes, and Buckbeak this time around)

Though if I may ask, who are the two characters between Peter and Lucius? Is that Crabbe and Goyle? Or Fenrir and someone else?

I still think the list is real. I mean getting James and Lilly Potter is cool but I dont think they were very high on people's wishlists. And this theme of years 1-3 which is also reflected in sets (bar The Great Hall due to need to give people the minifigs they need if they can't get the UCS). So Quirell and Pettigrew is my guess.

I'm hoping they make the girls have skirt prints ala Velma. Pretty spot on if you alter the colors.
