I found the pic of the updated Voldemort fig, but I can’t find one of Ollivander. Can anyone share a link, etc?

Actually I think all pics of him were taken down of Instagram for copyright reasons

Voldermort or Ollivander?

 

Cause if it was Voldemort, then that would confirm he is real

USA LEGO Store employees have told me release date moved up to July 1 for this series...  Boxed sets that is... No word on CMF line...

TRU closing has screwed up plans for many releases and LEGO is adjusting calendar on the fly...

So if this is not a target error or target only and at least the sets listed will be released to all retailers, I have two ideas. 

One: only the sets listed are coming in July, that’s why we got pictures of them before the fantasic beasts and aragog Set 

two: everything including the cmf is coming July 1st now so we could see an announcement soon about the cmf

I work for Lego so I can confirm this. On 7/1, we'll get Great Hall, Hogwarts Express, Whomping Willow, and Quidditch, while on 8/1, we'll get the 2 Fantastic Beasts sets, Aragog, and the CMF line! Very excited they pushed up the date!

Was that question for me? If so I was talking about Ollivander, Voldemort is still up on Instagram.

So the CMF line is real, if there was still any doubt :laugh_hard:

Darn, really hoped to grab them all.

odd that the Grindlewald Set was announced so early when now it’s coming later

Even with the sets coming earlier, I doubt that a CMF series would be released earlier, as it is technically a different line

I imagine that they might want the FBs sets released a little closer to CoG's debut.

CMF line!

You do not have any info I assume :tongue: Should leak any day now :excited:

I feel like it’s odd to have 4/5 HP sets release in July and then one little one in August...

Odd, but could be something with logistics, maybe the sets are not finished at the factory yet :shrug_oh_well:
We are getting the CMF then also and the D2C is getting closer as well :moar:

Honestly I’m not surprised with a The FB Sets, but Aragog being later is intriguing.

Do we actually know what 71043 is?

Are we certain it's Hogwarts?

Yeah, I wasn’t expecting the FB sets in July even if they were moving up the HP release. It’s weird that they’d move the release date up without any warning, though.

It is odd considering how good communication usually is from Lego. But I guess if it really due to TRU closing then they’ve obviously been busy sorting things out. They have to move dates around to meet profits, move exclusives to different reltailers, do whatever they’re doing with the bricktober exclusives and sell off all the stock that was going to go to TRU

It's a surprise, but a welcome one.

For the europe too? For France too? Or just for the Usa?

Do you happen to know if the release date was changed because of the demand for the sets?

Doubtful.
