I haven't been out this weekend, so I can't be certain if my TRU has recieved a new shipment of Series 2, but they better not have; I want to get onto Series 3 ASAP! Lord Embo

I hope not. They should keep it the same; that way there won't be as many mistakes made with the dots. Lord Embo

If you mean all the HP sets ever released, here is my favourite: 4730 The Chamber of Secrets This set came out in 2002 and even today it remains my favourite(inspite of rubbish Ginny Weasley and Tom Riddle figures) Harry Potter set to this day. Anyways, here are the pictures of the set and the minifigs: The box. The set out of its box. A closer look at the printed shield. A closer look at a printed wall element. Picture found @ FindMyBrick. A closer look at the Basilisk. That printing is lovely. Too bad hardly any parts are printed today. I couldn't find a close up of Fawkes. A closer look at the set out of the box. You can also see that Fawkes is included in this set. Harry Potter minifigure. It was the best they had back then, but that uniform is poor and the eyebrows in the glasses is also poor. Note the starry cape. Ron Weasley minifigure. The hair is a bad choice(same with Ginny Weasley and Tom Riddle) but that face captures Ron's look in the early movies perfectly. Once again the uniform is thge wrong colour and just isn't as good as today's uniform. Note another starry cape. Gilderoy Lockhart minifigure. This is one of two variations. The other came in The Duelling Club set also released in 2002. It is my personal favourite minifigure from this set. It just looks perfectly like Lockhart as he appeared in this scene(ignoring the fact that in the film he is flesh but here he is yellow ) Ginny Weasley minifigure. The hair is an awful choice(unlike the new version's hair) but the face captures Ginny Weasley's look in the second film. I still dislike the old Hogwarts uniforms. Tom Riddle. This is the weakest of the minifigures in the set. It doesn't look anything like Tom Riddle did in the film, and Harry Potter's hair was a poor choice for Tom Riddle's hair. I also still dislike the uniform. Inspite of the flaws of this set, it will forever be my favourite. I don't actually own it yet but one of my work colleagues showed me it when I went to his house to show me his Lego collection and I have loved this set ever since(I will buy it after Christmas off of Bricklink or EBay). Sorry for such a picture-heavy post. Lord Embo

They aren't? I thought they would be if people were able to notice it in the first place. Oh well, I wouldn't know as they aren't available in the UK yet. Which brings me to that question once again; when are they are released in the UK? People always seem to ignore this question when I ask it, which is why I am asking yet again. Lord Embo

I suppose you could as the voice of the reviewer would kind of indicate their age. Unfortunately you can't listen to people's voices on forums. Lord Embo

What makes you so sure that he doesn't work for TLG? It is a possibility after all. Lord Embo

1)Oh. That's too bad. I was eager to see him quickly. 2) Oh well, at least they're actually appearing. And BTW, they're Delta Squad, or so the rumours say. It's good to hear Savage Opress will become a main character. Maybe he'll replace Ventress... Lord Embo

I also agree. I barely want it as it is; if it included a TIE Pilot and that astromech droid from the Death Star then there would be absolutely no chance of me getting it. Lord Embo

1)I'd say about 99% of people who bought the magnet sets just wanted the minifigs. 2)I'd say less than 1% probably end up on the fridge. 3)I second that. Since they're going to glue the figs to the magnets, hardly anyone(if anyone) will buy them anymore and anyone who does will just put them on the fridge to gradually gather dust. Seems like a waste of money to me. Lord Embo

Just feel for the bumps; their positioning compared with the sheet telling you which is which should give you a pretty good guideline. If not, just feel the packaging; that will probably be easier. Lord Embo

You can never really tell what someone's age is on a forum like this(or anywhere online for that matter) because they can very easily lie about it and no one would know. Lord Embo

Sorry for the double post, but have the episodes with Savage Opress aired yet? Lord Embo

Should me and Walter send our DS's then? *EDIT* I've just sent my DS to you CM. *EDIT 2* Have you sent your DS Walter? Curse our different time-zones! Lord Embo

Ok then, now who's willing to adjudicate? You'll probably beat me knowing my luck. Lord Embo

I know that this has been asked already(probably), but when are they released in the UK? I want to get some soon; I could just use the EBay lot from America that I found though. Lord Embo

It only took me a week to complete the game on Xbox 360 to 100%(achievements included). Sorry for the double post, but no one has posted since I last did. Lord Embo

KDM, I challenge you to a duel. I have joined up if you're wondering. I just realised you have already challenged someone. Is anyone out there willing to duel me? Lord Embo

Henrik Saksonn - Bad Slytherin Student Health: 5 Spells None Mastery Spells None Bio Henrik Saksonn was born to Death Eater parents, who were both pure-bloods. Henrik's parents were Swedish, but Henrik was born in England shortly before Voldemort's downfall. His mother was sent to Azkaban just days after Voldemort's downfall when she was caught murdering a Muggle inspite of claiming she had been under the Imperius Curse. She died in Azkaban just two months after she was imprisoned there. Henrik's father was able to escape capture by moving away from Godric's Hollow and moving into Peterborough, a town filled with Muggles and a place known to have few magical people born there. Henrik was raised under a strict regime and sometimes tortured with the Cruciatus Curse by his father. He slowly become a miniature Death Eater and swore the Unbreakable Vow at age 10 to continue his father's work when he died. When Henrik's Hogwarts letter arrived, his father sent him to Diagon Alley alone. He got his first wand whilst he was there, though Mr Ollivander seemed to know what lay ahead of Henrik. His wand was 13.5 inches long, made of oak and had the scale of a Swedish Short-Snout for the wand's core. When he arrived at Hogwarts he befriended Draco Malfoy, who was in Henrik's year. Both were Sorted into Slytherin house. However, unlike Draco, Henrik didn't meet Harry Potter in his first year. Instead, he met him in Flourish and Botts while Gilderoy Lockhart was there. He and Draco despised Harry and Gilderoy, and both knew upon sight that the latter was a fraud. Also in his 2nd year, he became Beater on the Slytherin Quidditch team while Draco became Seeker. In Henrik's 4th year, Lord Voldemort returned to power. When Henrik returned home for the summer, he found his father and an Auror from the Ministry of Magic dead in the kitchen. Immediatedly, he knew what had happened. From then on, Henrik vowed revenge upon the Ministry of Magic and joined Voldemort's Death Eater ranks in the place of his father. He enters his final year at Hogwarts, which Voldemort now controls. In his sixth year, he infiltrated the Ministry of Magic and killed 103 employees before being seen. He is a very skilled wizard, who already knew how to become an Animagus, Apparate from one place to another and even use non-verbal magic by the end of his 4th year at Hogwarts.

I'm joining this today! It looks good, I can't belive never noticed this before. Lord Embo

I'm surprised that we don't have hi-res pics of the SE sets yet; we got hi-res pics of the January sets just two months before they were released. If this is anything to go by, and considering that the Swamp Speeder(one of this year's SE sets) was released in March, we should get pictures in January at the earliest. Lord Embo

What greenish tinge? I don't see any greenish tinge on the Tauntaun picture. And no, I'm not colourblind. Lord Embo

Very odd that you got that extra piece. I always seem to get strange extra pieces in sets, but I'm not complaining as these extras will be useful for MOCing purposes(like the new Lego HP contest, but that's off topic ). Lord Embo

Don't worry. I'm sure we'll get them eventually(especially Davy Jones, he is a must-make for TLG). It's too bad that we don't get them now though. Lord Embo

Spoiler Alert! Wrong! Harry survives Voldemort's Avada Kedavra and ends up killing Voldemort once and for all. Lord Embo

Do entries need to have the trio in them? I probably won't make Azkaban as I first said because I haven't got enough dark bley bricks. Lord Embo
