Harry Potter 2018 - Rumors & Discussion

Recommended Posts

It really seems like it’s going to be 5 Harry Potter sets and 2 fantastic beasts (young Dumbledore could come in suitcase). If this is true, I would bet that the cmf series is mostly Harry Potter too

I love both minifigures. Torsos are very accurate, they look great. However, I don't like dark blue legs on Harry. I think they are tan or dark tan in the movie. Same with Ron's. But I love those minifigures. I hope we get more leaks soon. Our only leaks are 75950 Harry, 75950 Ron, 75953 Snape and 75952 Niffler.

75955 is Knight Bus and 75956 is Quidditch set, huh? That means that 75952 Newt Scamander's Briefcase is from Crimes of Grindelwald, and includes for sure Newt, Tina, Dumbledore and Niffler.

Those minifigures, while accurate, do nothing for me.  Probably great for City fans though.

Speaking of the Fat Lady, I hope that if the D2C features the Gryffindor Common Room, she's featured, kinda like on 4709.

"We based these sets on movies 1 and 2 with a few bits from 3 added for flavour"

A fig or 3 would be flavour, a hole set is more like a dish *huh* So personally I think it is very odd if we get a Knight bus set in this wave! Until I see the set I think it is just someone making a mountain out of a molehill :tongue: A FB set of the KB makes even less sense, then we most likely will not get a KB for wave 2. No Stan Shunpike and at best a young Ernest Prang.. So I still think a FB set with a young Dumbledore makes more sense, time will show :grin:

I’m fairly sure the Harry Potter sets were listed on Lego.com briefly with the Knightbus there and no Quidditch set. 

The inclusion of the Knightbus possibly suggests they aren’t going into as much focus in each wave as what we first thought. However a Knightbus would have for sure been released in the winter so it’s welcomed. Even if it is a FB set I’m sure a HP version would be released too. 

It should have all the key figures in it which will be great! Just wished it was part of a POA theme in the winter... with possibly a chamber of secrets set this wave. (Or other) 

On another note, it will be really interesting to see what the CMF’s will be based off. Possibly more waves of those for specific films...

Really hoped we would get another fantastic beasts set rather than the Knight bus.

Also since the knight bus is from 3 it would be interesting what legs they use for harry.

You may be thinking of a few screenshots from PriceVortex that have been making the rounds, which does look like LEGO's website since they use the same generic picture for sets when there is no actual picture to display. Bear in mind those listings may not be accurate and the screenshots may not be complete, especially when it comes to retailer exclusives (the Quidditch set is rumored to be an exclusive at Target, I think?)

Harry Potter is a safer play for Lego, that’s why they are going 2 fb and 5 hp sets

Does anyone know what the Uk equivalents for Walmart and Target would be / are for these sets.

Bellatrix?

But that's a character from GoF?

I thought it was said this whole first wave was going to be books 1, 2 and 3

There were no Lily and James in the old wave. They are either custom or new.
