    Harry Potter 2012 Set Ideas Thread

    Here are some of my ideas: Room of Requirement (scene from Deathly Hallows pt 2) Price: £79.99 Minifigs: Harry Potter (casual), Ron Weasley (casual), Hermione Granger (casual), Draco Malfoy (casual), Gregory Goyle (uniform) and Blaise Zabini (uniform). The set would come with Ravenclaw's Diadem, lots of junk from old students, the Vanishing Cabinet and lots of fire. Whomping Willow (scene from Prisoner of Azkaban) Price: £39.99 Minifigs: Harry Potter (casual), Ron Weasley (casual), Hermione Granger (casual), Sirius Black (prison clothes), the Grim and Scabbers. The set would come with the Whomping Willow with hole at bottom for the Grim to take Ron into and some random plants. The Great Gringotts Escape (scene from Deathly Hallows part 2) Price: £99.99 Minifigs: Harry Potter (casual with Invisiblity Cloak), Ron Weasley (Death Eater disguise, double sided head), Hermione Granger (Bellatrix Lestrange disguise, double sided head), Griphook, Travers (double sided head, one normal, one Imperiused), 2 Gringotts Goblins, 2 Gringotts Wizard Guards and the Dragon. The set would come with Gringotts Bank with exploding function, Gringotts Main Hall, Bellatrix Lestrange's vault, Hufflepuff's cup, Sword of Godric Gryffindor, some coins, some other treasure for the vault, waterfall that removes any cloaking enchantments, large chains and a brown 64x64 baseplate to put everything onto. Lovegood's House (scene from Deathly Hallows part 1) Price: £59.99 Minifigs: Harry Potter (casual), Hermione Granger (casual), Ron Weasley (casual), Xenophilius Lovegood, Travers and Yaxley. The set would come with Lovegood's House with exploding function, Xenophilius' Dirigible Plum Garden, model of Ravenclaw's Diadem, Erumpent Horn, printed brown book (The Tales of Beedle the Bard (with page with story of The Three Brothers printed inside)) and some random plants.

    Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here

    It's been out for 5 years now(6 next year), which is actually a long time between remakes of a Lego Star Wars set. Maybe, to make us AFOLs happy with a remake, they could make a special variation of the X-Wing, say Bigg Darklighter's X-Wing for example. Anyways, 6 years isn't way too soon for a remake of a set IMO. 1-4 years, however, is too short a time after the release of the original set for a remake of said set, no matter how flawed the original may be.

    LEGO Star Wars 2011 Pictures & Rumors

    The new book could be a perfect time to make Zuckuss or 4-LOM as, unless they appear in TCW(which I doubt will ever happen), they probably would never be put into a set apart from another new Slave 1, which I'm sure nobody wants(unless it's Jango Fett's, of course) just yet. Lord Embo

    Lego Harry Potter Visual Dictionary

    That yellow shadow of Harry is just a guideline telling us that we're getting a new minifig. Just because Harry is shown there, it doesn't mean that he'll necessarily be the mystery minifig. However, it is most likely that the figure will be a new Harry, perhaps wearing his tuxedo from the Yule Ball or the clothes he wore when infiltrating the Ministry of Magic in the most recent Harry Potter film. However, we probably won't find out until March at the earliest what this mystery minifig is. Lord Embo

    General Pirates of the Caribbean Theme Discussion Thread

    1) Everyone on EB can almost certainly agree with that. 2) I too think this theme will fare much better than PoP if the other minifigs in the line look as accurate as their movie counterparts. The same can go with the ships. However, the inclusion of a Johnny Depp minifigure is enough to sell this theme to some people. I think that if TT makes the videogame really good that more people may be drawn towards this theme if a Johnny Depp minifigure isn't enough to satisfy them. Lord Embo

    That's probably why it is still around. However, I don't think that the X-Wing that is currently on shelves will reach 2012 because I predict that TLG will remake the X-Wing for the 2012 Summer Wave. Lord Embo

    General Pirates of the Caribbean Theme Discussion Thread

    Wasn't it exactly the same with the Prince of Persia sets? And look at what happened to them, discontinued in the same year as their release. Hopefully this promising theme doesn't succumb to that same depressing fate... Lord Embo

    Harry Potter 2011 Discussion

    That is very probable. I mean, why else would they leave empty connector holes in the set if they weren't to be used. Having the Battle for Hogwarts set connected to the Castle would henceforth make perfect sense and may make more people buy the sets to see how the two look when connected. That could utimately lead to the creation of more Lego Harry Potter sets after these ones. Just my opinion on the matter. Lord Embo

    LEGO Star Wars 2011 Pictures & Rumors

    The new book should come with Zuckuss, 4-LOM or a flesh Lobot to continue with the 0Tness of the minifigure in the Visual Dictionary and also to follow up to that minifigure, since it was from Episode 4, so a minifig from Episode 5 would be a good way to go IMO. Lord Embo

    Movies you can't unsee!

    1)Happy Feet 2)Nanny McPhee 3)Nanny McPhee 2 4)Twilight 5)Corpse Bride 6)Kicking and Screaming There are probably many others out there too that I haven't mentioned. On a different note, Transformers and Transformers 2 haters are really annoying me! There's nothing wrong with either film, so I don't see why so many people hate them! They both had plenty of action, interesting stories and were gripping to watch from start to finish, so quit complaining about them!!! End of rant. Lord Embo

    Harry Potter 2011 Discussion

    That's because he is the main character and the name of the franchise! Basically, we're almost certain to get him in every one of these new sets. However, I must slightly agree with you on the fact that there are way too many. Oh well, on the brightside, at least we'll get loads of Gryffindor uniforms for characters like Fred and George and Oliver Wood! Also, the inclusion of Harry in each set rather than a new character with new moulds saves us and TLG some money. Lord Embo

    LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean video game

    If sea battles aren't in this game, I will be majorly disappointed as they played a major part in all the films that have been in cinemas so far and presumably in On Stranger Tides. In short, sea battles are more or less compulsory in this game if it is to be any good because of how important their role is in the films. Lord Embo

    Your Lego Christmas Haul Thread

    Unfortunately I didn't get much as I was mainly asking for money, but between Christmas Day and 30th December, I got 2505 Garmadon's Dark Fortress(bought on 29th December with Christmas money), 4736 Freeing Dobby(2 times!) and 7117 Gresh. I also got given three individual Harry Potter minifigures from the 2010 line: Harry Potter(Quidditch), Dumbledore and another Dobby, meaning I now have three Dobbys! Does buying myself Garmadon's Dark Fortress actually count? Lord Embo

    Which is your favourite upcoming Lego minifigure in 2011?

    Now that we know about so many new minifigures that are set to be in the Summer wave(unless they change their minds, like with Vos in the T6 ), I really have to change my mind but can't really decide. Instead, I'm just going to list the mininfigs that I;m most interested in. Embo Savage Opress Ki-Adi Mundi Eeth Koth ARF Trooper Shaak Ti Quinlan Vos Tactical Droid R8-B7 Luminara Unduli(redesigned) Watto(redesigned) Darth Maul(redesigned) Sebulba(redesigned) Captain Panaka Padme Amidala(redesigned) I could choose any of the minifigures listed above, but some of them(Sebula and Eeth Koth, for example), I'm going to need to get a closer look at before making any decisions.

    LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4

    What console are you playing on and where did you buy the game from? Also, was the game new, or was it second-hand? I played the game on Xbox 360 and bought the game from Amazon unplayed beforehand. The amount of glitches you encounter either goes down to these three factors or you're just unlucky. Lord Embo

    Harry Potter 2011 Discussion

    Here are my opinions on these mystery sets: Forbidden Forest: Will either be based on the Philosopher's(Sorcerer's in US) Stone or the Deathly Hallows part 2. Philosopher's Stone version would probably include Harry, Voldemort in his black, Dementor-like robes, Firenze and maybe even Fang with the mould seen in the videogame. It would also probably come with a tree and perhaps the tree root that Harry trips over. Deathly Hallows part 2 version would probably include Harry, Voldemort and Narcissa Malfoy. It would probably come with a small baseplate, a tree and maybe a small rock too. Depending on what is included in this set, I may buy it. Knight Bus: Will probably be extremely similar to the last version but more accurate to its movie counterpart and larger as well. It would probably come with Harry, Ernie Prang, Stan Shunpike, the Grim with its mould from the videogame and maybe even Aunt Marge if we're lucky, but that latter almost certainly won't happen. It will probably come with a larger Knight Bus with the door Stan is standing at when the bus picks up Harry. It will probably also come with as newspaper with printed wanted poster of Sirius Black, Harry's suitcase, some plants and maybe the swing set shown in the background of that scene in the film. I will almost certainly get this, but the price may decreases the odds of that. Battle of Hogwarts: Will definitely show the scene which is set to appear in Deathly Hallows part 2. It would probably come with Harry, Ron, Hermione, Voldemort, Molly, Bellatrix, Ginny, Neville and maybe even Nagini with a removable head. It will probably come with a medium sized baseplate, a building with an exploding function and the sword of Godric Gryffindor with the ruby painted on and blood painted on the blade. Depending on what is included in this set6, I may buy it. Hopefully the Harry Potter line will continue into 2012 and beyond. Also, according to Brickipedia, the release date for these sets is August 2011, so if that is true these won't appear until after the second part of the Deathly Hallows finally hits cinemas. Lord Embo
