RODDY Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) Fantastic job by the designers, gotta say I'm amazed. I think my favorite has to be Madeye because I had the him as a kid and even then I hated it and I didn't care too much about detail (still don't and think some of them are overdetailed). The improvement is amazing! I love how he can switch into Barty Jr. Neville and Dumbledore are sweet as well. I want to say the "big" three are from GOF but Ron has short hair. My only complaint is Luna's face is off and NO LOCKHART!!!!!!! I think we will see him in the next wave. Edited June 27, 2018 by RODDY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now I just need more rooms to display them in. Seriously considering buying either 2 Willow sets or 2 Great Hall sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alegrispa Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) Wow, WOW. I'm bricking blown away by them. Outstanding job TLG. I've never even thought about getting more than one or two minifigures of each line, yet alone the whole series. Also- I totally knew the Voldemort was real EDIT: My gods, I hadn't even seen the Fantastic Beasts line up! I haven't been this excited about LEGO since I was a kid. I really, really hope this theme is here to stay! Edited June 27, 2018 by Alegrispa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I vote for both! Hehe. Will you be leaving both sets as is or varying one to look like a different building of Hogwarts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Praetorian_Guard Posted June 27, 2018 I also regret that there is no Lockhart. I hope we´ll get a figure of him in the next wave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah, because even though it's an inanimate object, I can still hear this Dumbledore screaming at a 14-year-old boy. Richard Harris Dumbledore ftw! 21 minutes ago, ItamatTheGreat said: Is there a new leg piece? Lego released a closer look at some of them and it looks like there is a leg piece which is between the normal and the child but can still bend. Most certainly. Seems we have a "teenage" lego figure size now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huigberts Builds Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) https://www.brothers-brick.com/2018/06/27/new-lego-wizarding-world-of-harry-potter-collectible-minifigures-series-revealed-news/ Here we have a closer and more detailed look to each minifigure. I love the eye detail on Grindelwald, he even has an extra hairpiece. Also Dobby looks a little bit better from up close. Still kinda funny how we got 3 printed pieces over the years from the same sock, and they all look totally different.

KevinMD Posted June 27, 2018 I wonder if Luna will have the alt face with those glasses, since I think that outfit is from the train only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robert8 Posted June 27, 2018 My only complaint with Dumbledore is that he doesn't have a special molded Elder Wand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoFjotten Posted June 27, 2018 Wow! Best. CMF Series. Ever! I will definitely get a full box, expect this series to sell like crazy! And there are still lots of characters left to do for series 2! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
just_one Posted June 27, 2018 any news on the availability per box? i hope the rumour of 1 per 4/5 gets shut down Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spader Posted June 27, 2018 Sad that there is no Sirius Black, but this series looks incredible. Gonna pick up half or more....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know something is seriously screwed up when we have a Susan Bones figure before Lockhart. Master of the memory charm and actually charm. World reknown author and hair soap specialist.

Excuse me sir but I'll have to inform you that you are objectively wrong. While the CMF looks good nothing can beat that lavishing red OG Dumbledore attire.

But then again the Elder Wand only started playing a big part from movie 5/6 and onwards. 10 minutes ago, Ultron said: Nah, because even though it's an inanimate object, I can still hear this Dumbledore screaming at a 14-year-old boy. Richard Harris Dumbledore ftw! #Calmly Also I ordered the old Sprout online, just in case. Since she's probably not represented anytime soon, unless the D2C surpises us with movie 1/2 Flitwick and Sprout. I can see it happen that her figure will raise in price very quickly.

I don't think he has long hair in POA if I remember correctly. And if Hogwarts Express is based on that film, he has short hair there. Some weird inconsistencies.

They’re based on Goblet of Fire I believe, that’s why they (Harry and Ron) have long hair, they had short hair in PoA Just now, Huigberts Builds said: I think Harry is rather based on GoF Yeah, that’s what I think, makes sense with Cedric and Cho being included as well as them having long hair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigHobbit Posted June 27, 2018 So...in the past has anyone had success ordering a whole box? If so, where do you get them from? LEGO store told me they don't sell them by the box, and I have two friends who want to split a box with me. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, as I'm buying far more in this assortment than any other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balrogofmorgoth Posted June 27, 2018 5 hours ago, shotgunmcos said: Thanks for the tip. I'll try and figure it out so and find a unique shaped piece in each fig. Bit of fun I suppose if you guess correct and booo if not. It’s easier than you might think. I’ve done it for several full series’. I’ve never gotten the wrong one. Just take your time with it and make sure you know for sure before you buy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GalacticHippo Posted June 27, 2018 Wow, these are incredible! I never expected this level of both printing and new molds, which are fantastic. I could gush about each one for hours. I have to say that I've always quite liked Gambondore (heresy!) and I adore the new hat/hair piece — I only wish they did something like that for McGonagall in the Great Hall.
