Roebuck Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) 21 minutes ago, ItamatTheGreat said: What? They could have easally included members of the wizleys and a function to "block" the passage and thus replicate both train scenes from the first and second movies, and also the trolly witch only apeared on the first film so there's that too I said the most memorable train scene, not that the other movies did not have good scenes in connection with the train.. Also they want bad guys in the sets, that's why they put the basilisk in the GH and probably why they put the dementor in the train. The trolly witch is also in the 4 film at least, but even if she is not in a scene in the 3 film, there is no doubt that she is on the train selling sweets Page 200 Edited June 8, 2018 by Roebuck 200 page anniversary!

Whovastron Posted June 8, 2018 So someone on Reddit has purchased the Quidditch set in WHSmith in the U.K. i think this pretty much confirms my theory that the sets get released July 1st in the U.K. along with the Brickheadz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not so surprising no new sets or CMF there, but I like that they put the small animal moulds in the line up with the figs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BacktoBricks Posted June 9, 2018 23 hours ago, Brick Wizard001 said: It seems to me that a lot of people think that the theme is called 'Wizarding World' which I don't think it's called. I think this theme is very much like LotR and The Hobbit which wasn't called *Middle Earth' either. The 'Wizarding World' logo is JK Rowlings which is used in all of her 'HP' work.. I think you're right about that; the leaked Summer catalogue lists the sets under Lego Harry Potter and Lego Fantastic Beasts. Lego put them together in the catalogue because it makes sense, but they don't put them both under a 'Wizarding World' heading. The only place WW is mentioned is in the tiny copyright print in the bottom corner of the page. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoAcklay Posted June 9, 2018 Do you think they will re-make a chamber of secrets with a moulded Basalisk? Needs a serious update. Not as much as with the spider as they did for this line but still needs one. Know they added it in brick form to the castle set but needs a serious representation I think.

It's been claimed by Just2Good that Lego wants HP to be an "evergreen" (i.e. an ongoing) theme. If this wave sells as well as we all hope, there's no way they won't make a new Chamber of Secrets sooner or later. Given the quality of the beasts in the Newt's Suitcase set, I wouldn't even mind if the Basilisk was brick-built, maybe with a new moulded head. They only made the little Basilisk in the Great Hall because it needed a "baddie" for the heroes to fight, there's no reason to think they won't make a bigger, better Basilisk in a future set.

Crosses Fingers haha. Maybe they should of gone for a troll for the castle set. Makes more sense since they attacked it and even went into the toilets. I personally wish they make it simlar to the basalisk design of the old set but have a extra vertical swivel at the base of the neck so it can strike down with it's head along with a slimmer body so it flows better with the neck and tail. Moulded would allow for some nice decal textures on the sides. Hope they make it sand blue also this time around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Basalisk is my favourite Harry Potter creature. Wan't to see it brought back into the LEGO spotlight. For it's own dedicated set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Cogg Posted June 10, 2018 They could build the Basilisk like they did with the creatures in Newt's Suitcase, brick built with a molded head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roebuck Posted June 10, 2018 If they make the assumed D2C Hogwarts based only on year 1-2 it is probably included there, personally I think it is more likely it is from all the films, so then we have to wait for a future wave with a set which most likely will come sooner or later Several of the animals that are brick built this wave could definitely get a mould in a future wave. Lego overspent the budget on this wave, so they needed to prioritize witch animals and other parts they should mould this time around. I think these 3 have the best chance of getting a new mould in a future set; 1 fawkes, 2 occamy (small), 3 basilisk, but we are still missing animals like Fang and Mrs Norris also.. Next wave will have a new fresh budget with all of the first priority parts already made. On the other hand if next wave is from 3-4 films there is a lot of animals that need to be made: Buckbeak Hungarian horntail Padfoot Werewolf Crookshanks Pigwidgeon Abraxan Merpeople (probably minifig) (Ferret and Grindylow ) In addition to fantastic beast of every kind from FB 4 hours ago, HarryPotter said: I can only imagine how amazing a Chamber of Secrets set would be today.

Black Numenorean Posted June 10, 2018 If you want more lego set, you need to buy all of them and make a lot of advertissement around you. About me, i will buy all the sets this year even the D2C. Otherwise, the wave will be finished like lotr wave: two and the garbage hobbit sets. We have the same type of wave with lotr/hobbit and fb/hp Perhaps we will have more fb in next years and hp less.

Heppy9 Posted June 10, 2018 I’ve just seen the US catalogue and states a release date for the Harry Potter brickheadz as 1st August! The uk online shop has them as a 1st July release so it could well be true the uk will see all the other sets on 1st July too ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It looks like they are planing to give her a unique print, since she was not included in the WW set, If they where planning to use a normal cat they could just have put one in the set.. 59 minutes ago, RyanMe said: I wish they would have justvreused the mood for Fawkes from the chamber of secrets set It seems that Lego have been updating every old animal mould the last years, so I think it is not a option to reuse a old animal mould in a set now.. I do not mind since the updates are always better looking, but not sure why they do it some are very similar to the old mould.. Could be that the old moulds do not fit into the moulding machine any more perhaps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

x105Black Posted June 10, 2018 4 hours ago, RyanMe said: I wish they would have just reused the mood for Fawkes from the chamber of secrets set [sic] I agree. If the issue is that the old mold is no longer working, then hopefully a new Fawkes will be molded some day. Replacing it with a brick-built substitute feels cheap. I know they were already over budget on molds and such, but this is one thing that just doesn't work well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s intriguing, as the US event revealing all the sets stated August 1st, as does the Danish catalogue. danish catalogue says August 1st for Brickheadz and Sets Event in US says August 1st for both brockheadz are listed for July 1st in the U.K., and then are shortly followed with other countries also listing them someone finds the Quidditch set on sale in the U.K. (and not in a toy store, WHSmiths is actually mainly a newsagents that sometimes sells toys, so isn’t exactly a main buyer). 3 weeks before July 1st, and 7 weeks before August 1st i highly doubt a shop like WHSmiths would have a set 7 weeks early, so I think that points to a July release in the U.K., but all this other information is quite contradictory. I think I’ll email customer service and see if they can shed any light on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So if the set team come to the CMF team and say; look we really want to make a new Mrs. Norris and Fang, but we have used up the budget, is that something you could include in the CMF? Or the other way around, the CMF team say to the set team; We are planning to include a Mrs. Norris and Fang in the CMF, please do not include them in any sets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
