dimaks13 Posted August 24, 2018 Considering the box of Diagon Ally compared to the box of HE I'd say 20€ price is the most likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

just_one Posted August 24, 2018 A request to anyone who has the Hogwards Castle could you take a picture with a bunch of Harry Potter minifigs (from the sets or series) spread around the castle ? Please :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoSims20 Posted August 24, 2018 3 hours ago, BacktoBricks said: According to Brickset, someone has found the microscale Diagon Alley to buy at a certified Lego Store in Slovenia. So does that mean it isn't going to be a promo? I remember when pictures of the new small Lego Store set leaked people thought it would be a promo for a £100+ purchase, but it actually turned out it was just a product to buy. Could this be the same? UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Get it in UK shops Lego please. Does this mean I can open my D2C Hogwarts now? Since we have confirmation Diagon Alley will be sold not merely a giveaway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodiziorobs Posted August 24, 2018 The Brick Fan has the image up now, along with an image of the backside. Thanks, @tormentalous! The footprint on this is 6x26 studs, and I'm guessing it will come in on the order of ~240 pieces. I love the way they've built the tilted columns on Gringotts! While I understand microscale isn't everyone's favorite, I love it and especially appreciate it on a one-off promo set like this. Calling it 'shameful' or whatever seems remarkably pretentious. Besides, since it's a promo it's not like it's stolen a slot from a regular set, and if nothing else, it's a great parts pack. I would expect this to be available for purchase by itself. Maybe a it is freebie if you spend more than $150 or something, but I'm pretty confident it will go for $20 as a standalone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can any fans in Slovenia confirm the price and existence? Spoiler And sell me one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodiziorobs Posted August 24, 2018 I just noticed the "cobblestone" 2x4 tiles are printed, and there are six of them. I don't know why that makes me so excited, since I don't mind stickers and I don't know what I would do with these pieces, anyway, but it makes me very happy.

Legochaek Posted August 24, 2018 My gosh that set is beautiful- been wanting a Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes since 2010! Like the way it fits the scale, but wish it had some microfigures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nikhkin Posted August 24, 2018 (edited) I may be mistaken (I did only skim read the article earlier on), but I don't recall it being said that it was for sale / will be for sale. I thought the wording was that someone had "found it in a Lego store". That doesn't mean it was on the shelf and up for sale, just that it was at the store. It could be a member of staff took the image, having found them in the store room. Edited August 24, 2018 by nikhkin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No assumptions being made here. I was only relaying what was in the picture, intentionally leaving it open for interpretation. Personally, I think it will be some kind of promo item, possibly being sold regularly at some point but no one really knows until Lego tells us. The fact that there was only one and it was in an odd spot tells me it most likely wasn’t meant to be there at all Edited August 24, 2018 by Balrogofmorgoth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if it was for sale in the certified store, it doesn't mean it will be for sale in regular Lego brand stores and might still be a promo in the real stores.
