At the most fantasic beasts is going to get between 4 and 7 figures in total so odds are we will see more Harry Potter before any fantasic beasts stuff shows up Fair enough, is it not odd how early these have been leaking though? I mean a Beckett Minifigure leaked for a Star Wars Set the other day and that set releases in a few weeks. i know I’m almost certainly wrong, but oh well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The reason we are getting the figures is the sets are probably just starting to get produced in mass fashion for an August release Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoldenNinja3000 Posted May 15, 2018 11 minutes ago, Whovastron said: But are we. Things can change. Maybe the date got moved forward. I just think it’s strange how early these figures are leaking. Other recent themes like Jurassic World and Solo have leaked about a month before, not 2 and a half. i know I’m probably wrong, but I can dream! Infinity War figures started leaking in December, and I’m pretty sure Jurassic World leaks started in January. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roebuck Posted May 15, 2018 I hope to see some more animals leaking as well, if we are really lucky we will get a Fang mould in the smallest set Should be a Mrs Norris in the WW set, maybe with a new colour, also there should definitely be more owls than just Hedwig in the GH set The 2010-11 waves had 10 sets with a total of 15 owls between them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hachiroku Posted May 15, 2018 I still think that the UCS Hogwarts is going to be like the Helicarrier. A "perfect" Hogwarts but in microfig scale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Praetorian_Guard Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) Maybe the Part of Hogwarts from the Whomping Whillow Set will contain Snapes Office and maybe a part of the Griffindor Common Room. And because of that the Seamus-minifigure is from the Whomping Whillow Set. This is the only way for me to explain why he was on this banner, which featured only components from 75953 and 75954.

What I mean is, theyre gonna put Susan Bones in the Great Hall, before someone like Neville Longbottom? Considering they don't use new prints it don't matter. Susan bones is just an excuse for a hufflepuff torso print. Whoever the spikey haired guy is he dont use a new printed face either so it doesn't matter what they name him.

Legocollinfreak Posted May 15, 2018 It won't be incomplete. The scale they are using for these Hogwarts sets doesn't really allow them to make a $600 add-on. The marble staircase tower should be way taller if they wanted to pull that off. Also, the tower itself doesn't include much. The UCS Hogwarts I think will be the image we see them teasing on the site. Just the front of the castle so they can leave the back open and allow them to put it up on a mountain.

AnnaBuildsLego Posted May 15, 2018 I didn't realise that the banner image doesn't just show the Great Hall, but also a bit of the Whomping Willow and presumably the portion of the castle that is included in that set. It all looks utterly delightful and I cannot wait for this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It does allow it, it depends what comes in the set, maybe Hagrids Hut, maybe a bridge, who knows Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something that I think that not all people realized is that this time, Lego is really sticking to the movie scenes.this time. Their not just throwing in all of the major characters in sets where they seem fit. They put Susan Bones in the Great Hall because in the movie we only see 5 characters get sorted: Harry, Ron, hermione, draco, and Susan. We're getting Terrence Higgs because he was the seeker in SS. Go back and look at all the leaked minifigures we've seen and apply them to the sets and you'll realize LEGO is really trying to stay screen accurate this time around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LegoLord54 Posted May 15, 2018 I don’t really understand much about leaks but I wonder why we have had leaks for the brick heads that come out on the 1st July wheras we haven’t had any leaks for the HP and FB sets when they are both scheduled for June. Also do you think we could get Madame Hooch in the Quidditch set as I feel that the one we are getting could be almost identical to the one we got in 2010 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
