Conaidering the U.K. prices we know about so far, compared to the US: The Quidditch Match - $40/£35 Whomping Willow - $70/£60 Hogwarts Express - $80/£70 Great Hall - $100/£90 i personally wouldn’t be surprised if these were the remaining prices: suitcase - £40/45 Grindlewalds Escape - £20 Aragog’s Lair - £13 EDIT: This does bode well for the D2C in the U.K. if it’s a $500 Set, it could easily be £400 Edited June 21, 2018 by Whovastron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGODalekbuster523 Posted June 21, 2018 The D2C microscale Hogwarts thing is obviously fake. They won't do Hogwarts twice. It'll be Diagon Alley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s not fake. There are several nanofigures that leaked, where else would they come from if not from a microscale Hogwarts? There is much more info backing a microscale Hogwarts then a diagon alley Edited June 21, 2018 by Falconfan1414 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MAB Posted June 22, 2018 12 hours ago, LEGODalekbuster523 said: The D2C microscale Hogwarts thing is obviously fake. They won't do Hogwarts twice. It'll be Diagon Alley. They had both #4841 Hogwarts Express and #40028 Mini Hogwarts Express out at the same time. So there is history of having the same subject at two scales at the same time. Not that The Great Hall by itself is Hogwarts. Plus sets that are primarily architecture with less play features and minifigure scale with more play features are aimed at different audiences. There might be some overlap, but I imagine most kids won't be interested in the microscale set if it is primarily display rather than play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johnny1360 Posted June 22, 2018 (edited) I think it's more unbridled bitter disappointment on LEGODalekbuster523s part. Personally I look forward to seeing the set, afterwards I will decide if I want it, thinking it will be quite cool though, considering the sheer size alone.

Fair enough, but that's 1 Hogwarts set and 1 part of Hogwarts as a set. Wish I could give a clue, but I know nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Nemo Posted June 22, 2018 NOOOOOooooooooooooo! I was sooooo close to it! But they wouldn’t sell it to me! Super Target employee why!!! Why must you play with my heart?! Also the box for the Great Hall set is surprisingly small in person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Nemo Posted June 22, 2018 The Great Hall set! It was right there, on a cart in the middle of the isle! I touched it! But alas...tis not August yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why wait until August? U.S. Lego shop at home lists it as a July 1 release. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Nemo Posted June 22, 2018 So either Lego Shop is wrong, or the press releases Lego sent out all had the wrong month listed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny1360 Posted June 22, 2018 Yes would think if Target already had it albeit not for sale, that it would be slated for July release, since August is a good 5 weeks away. Just can't see them distributing it that early to stores. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Balrogofmorgoth Posted June 22, 2018 Aragog’s Lair has been officially revealed. Think there’s any chance of it being included in the July releases? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAB Posted June 22, 2018 It appears that LEGO doesn't even know the correct release dates, so it is anyone's guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least you're able to have a sense of humor about it; I get so frustrated when this happens to me. Also, you're not in the Chicago area by any chance, are you? (Just so I know whether I should go searching in vain for early HP sets ) Also, I've been following this thread for quite a while, despite the fact that I've only really been posting in the Star Wars forum, so I have a question--apologies if it's already been asked:Is there already a dedicated thread for posting about potential future Harry Potter sets or wishlists?
