LEGO Star Wars 2019 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
RODDY replied to Stash2Sixx's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I hope that the Hoth Set has more Imperials this time around then Rebels. Assault on Hoth was very low on Snowtroopers. -
mp lego news

Awesome art indeed. That's a new mold as well. The POA poster has the Great Hall behind it, maybe it's a hint of what sets are coming? For the GOF poster we can see Harry in his Task 1 gear so Hungarian Horntail remake would be that one. For the OoTP maybe a Ministry Of Magic Playset with the duel at the end of the film (unlikely but would be totally awesome). Half Blood Prince could be the Cave with the Inferi. And Draco of course would be Room Of Requirements. Which oddly matches up with that old rumor from months ago. Who am I kidding, it's probably from an upcoming book.

I think they are holding the suprises for the April 20th anniversary wave for us collectors. Just wait a little longer I bet there is going to be some cool sets like a Lars' Homestead or a Tantive IV or a UCS Star Destroyer. This is just a passable appetizer. -
Did anyone notice that when mp bricks put out a bunch of the leaks, he put out a Wizarding World promotional image? Maybe we might get winter sets after all (Lockhart please Lockhart)

Neville, Lupin (werewolf eyes), and Slughorn.

IGN have a video review of Betrayal At Cloud City up on YouTube. -
I kinda believe your leak but let's get one thing straight. Sir Von Lego is a credible source around Lego biz for years: you just started leaking a couple of weeks ago. While your info maybe legit, the "attacks" are justified because we have been affected by fake leakers before. Nothing personal against you but people like ForceGhostSolo have really dampered on people's ability to trust.

PRESS RELEASE for LEGO 75222 - Betrayal at Cloud City Announcement
RODDY replied to WhiteFang's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Do you guys think this set will sell out quickly? -
Official LEGO statement regarding Master Builder Series
RODDY replied to Cwetqo's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I'm a big playsets/locations guy myself (Ewok Village is my favorite set of all time, Cloud City could eclipse it) so this is great news getting a whole line to them! Imagine Theed Palace or Geonosis Arena or Jedi Temple as a set? Or maybe Jabba's Palace or Mos Eisley (Space Port, Cantina, Homestead) or Yavin 4? Or even Canto Bight or Ahch-To? Possibilities are endless. -
Great news wasn't expecting another wave so quickly! Was expecting summer at the earliest. I think you are close to the sets we get but I don't see a Common Room. We already got i it n Whomping Willow. But I do see a Knight Bus because Lego love their vehicles. Two Chamber sets (Add DADA office to Myrtle's bathroom), Two Akzaban sets, the rest FB. Why don't you want GOF sets? Yeah Yule Ball would be cool but The Graveyard Duel is screaming for a remake as well.

PRESS RELEASE for LEGO 75222 - Betrayal at Cloud City Announcement
RODDY replied to WhiteFang's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I don't know why but this set is really growing on me. Like some of you guys my first reaction was like meh. Cool but not great. But when that guy did the cut out of the set and you get the actual size, it sold it to me. I had the original as a kid but my parents sold it when we moved. So getting this set back in some form has been a priority to say the least. It's the last Star Wars set I really need (moving to Ninjago and Harry Potter next) I hope you are right because I don't want to wait months on months to get it as the wait spoiled my enjoyment of the UCS MF quite a bit because of how terribly Lego handled the situation. I didn't even really care by the end. I have classes to attend when the Lego store opens so I'm not gonna make till around 2pm. -
True but I was hoping it would come out this winter. But I can wait.
-
Sigh... Disappointed quite a bit hearing this. I was hoping the Diagon Alley was real. Cloud City here we come! Anyways I love the HP pack Slughorn is even more awesome looking with better photos. Only complaint is Umbridge she has an overkill of detailing on her face.
-
Seeing how ornate Lando's cape is, I hope we something similar for the eventual Lockhart minifig.
-
Are we going for a Jan 1 release date or Mar 1? For Jan 1 I mean if we go by other announcements the press release of Hogwarts Express, Willow, and Quidditch which was in May I think just two months shy from July, I think October the earliest. Latest I would say end of November/first week December.
-
Again it's all speculation. Maybe it's a coincidence. Unless he said straight up Diagon Alley is happening, it's not confirmed. Maybe it was a nice background piece. Who knows. I think it will happen in system scale thanks to the Ollivander figure, but we will see. Right now its firmly a rumor and while we all have opinions, no one is for certain. Turn down the ego notch a little. Thanks.
-
This guy. You guessed one thing right and now you think you know everything. We don't even know if this set is going to be sold or not regardless of scale. The illusion of foreground makes it uncertain if it's micro or system. I honestly can't tell because I switched from micro to system to micro. This could be a MOC for all we know and lego is screwing with us. Microscale Hogwarts (though I'm not a fan) makes sense cause it could capture a good portion of it. You can easily capture the important parts of Diagon Alley with one System Scale set. I personally believe a system scale Diagon is coming soon from speculative evidence but there is definetly evidence against as well. Have your opinion but nothing is truly known. Clouded the future is.
-
Just rewatched the video looking out for the Willow and you might be right. Now you have cast uncertainty in my belief of Diagon coming out soon. Unless this is a hint and they are hiding the actual model.
-
I also think that the minifig list is wrong for Diagon. My guess is that we get Harry, Ron, Hermione, Fred, George, Ginny, Lockhart, Lucius, Ollivander, and two of the goblins. Maybe a spare death eater. Lockhart and Ginny cover the key missing minifigs from Chamber. Myrtle and Riddle will likely be CMFs. I don't see Molly or Arthur so they can be exclusives to the eventual The Burrow. Another big reason why I think Diagon will come out later this year is because of Lockhart. He's the only DADA teacher not made and that was so odd especially with Slughorn being released before him though it's his lego debut. Combine that with the leaked Ollivander and they were both at Diagon it just makes sense. There is too much speculative evidence for it not to be true.
-
Duh these sets are fake. Chamber isn't going to happen again and that alone spoiled it. Diagon Alley is the only one I see happening by itself the latest by Jan 1 as a standalone set. We can stil get Lockhart, Lucius, and Ginny from that set the key missing minifigures besides Sirius. The next full wave will be next Summer.
-
Let's remember that no one knew about the Hogwarts Express until it the official press statement. Lego can be very quiet with their sets sometimes. And alot of people didn't buy the microscale Hogwarts because of its scale. This would be a way to placate them. And DA seems to be quite the unit my guess is $250 with 3000 pieces. Gringott's and the Weasley Emporium look pretty big on their own. I think everything is pointing at December.
