    I hope we will get a student pack! But I have a feeling we dont get all the houses in their robes.. More like Harry, Luna, Neville, Draco. With Luna and Draco in their robes or something like that, but I hope I have wrong. You probably have right. It's look like the same basilisk from Hogwarts and Voldemort from the graveyard set. Then I don't need to buy it.. :) Does someone now if we have got something exclusive in other books from 2018 and forward?

    The new book "Witches, wizards, creatures, and more" will include Voldemort and nagini and will be released in autumn. Is it a new variant of Voldemort and nagini? Have it been released other hp books with exclusive minifigs/parts from 2018 and forward?

    Is anyone more skeptical to kingnono's hints? After lego did pre ordering possibly from 1 may and not 4 th may as kingnono write. I'm feeling more skeptical for the hints now.

    I'm probably buy a whole box. I want to have duplicate of the potion book and the monster book and some duplicate of characters. And sell the rest. I'm typically not that person that buy a whole box, but hp is an exception!

    The small building on the right side of the bridge looks like the smaller castle section in astronomy tower. It's easier to see how similar they are when you compare with the D2C Hogwarts castle. The boathouse could work as a small set.

    In my country you can find some sales, I have seen some sets from 2019 for the half of price, but only shorter sales like one week. No, i'm modify the sets to look better. It's almost an exception i'm satisfy with legos version. But legos version does helping me to get inspired and start rebuilding. I want to be more accurate to the actually Hogwarts, not to legos Hogwarts :)

    It's really inspiring to see your MOCs!! To build that kind of MOC of Hogwarts, have someone buyed the D2C Hogwarts castle to using pieces? It's something like these I want to do when I've more of the sections and pieces. Like a Hogwarts in minifig scale.

    Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion

    I want to be more accurate to the actually Hogwarts and going to use the sections and the D2C Hogwarts castle to build a version in minifig scale and trying to not compromised to much but not making it to huge either.. The Astronomy Tower has fantastic exterior that i'm not going to modify so much but the interior isn't impresse me (not the other sections either) but it's inspire me. I'm going to make larger rooms to make some scenes. It's the charm with lego, that you can do it in your way :) Thanks! I will try to remember this.

    I really like the burrow and it's my next favourite of this 6 sets. But someone mentioned of the color scheme was better before. And I can agree, especially the roof is a bit to bright in the color. I've even prefer a style more like the fishing store, only a touch of the style to the burrow. But I really looking forward to get it and modify to the style I want to have, it seems to be a fun build to modify.

    Hedwig is way to angular and should have been build with some rounder shapes. Especially the head is very angular in the form. I was trying to find if some angles is good looking but only found a few angles it's not looking that terrible, before I wright my post and my opinion is still there. It's in a estetic way it failed. In a technical way Hedwig maybe not failed but in a estetic way she did. I'm not a fan of SW but Yoda looked better and have the rounded shapes what i hoped Hedwig will get. And why leave that many visible studs.. The centatures is amazing and I think the tree building was clever. The figures is good to. But my eyes are bleeding when I looking on Graup. This time i'm glad that is stickers and I can use the pieces for something else. Even if I hoped to get a better looking troll (like the old set, but better) with him included i'm still happy of this set because we will get the amazing centatures. Probably I will buy multiples of this set to get some of them.

    Astronomy Tower - I LOVE IT, it's the best castle section lego have did. It's waaay more better then what I expect. But it's feels that lego compromised with the figures, Neville is my favourite. I like that Lavender get a bow. All the details, in the top of the tower, Slughorns book. I've hoped that the greenhouse would be bigger.. I like that we get an sidebuilding with it! The burrow - I really like it. It's an amazing set. Mollys hair disapointed me and hoped that Tonks should have her more iconic pink hair. Arthur and Ginny is really well made. I like the pig to. Privat drive - Really nice set. I'm suprised over that the house was that detaild. Petunia and Dudley is nice. I had hoped that they did Vernon better than that. Another almost same looking car in two sets is really anoying. Probably I will wait for a good sale to get one. Room of requriement, a really sweet set. I really like it and the statue was a nice suprise. This probably will mean I will buy another set of expecto patronum to get Harrys patronum to for this scen. Forbidden forest - I like the tree and that you can open it. The centatures is the best with this set. I like this version of Umbridge more then the bricktobers. Graup.. He's look awful. I don't like the childish look he have. Hedwig - The idea was good, but they failed :( Probably I will buy this set to get a complete collection. Not worth the full price. With some more tiles she probably look better. But her eyes look little creepy. I'm so courios of the other sets i autumn now!

    I think it's really weird that the cmf picture has leaked but nothing else (except the polybag).

    Feeling the same. When I looked at the lines it's not that good and precise as the others

    I'm looking forward for the Astronomy tower most. I wish that they will do the structure of the tower on a good looking way and i'm a little scared if they fail with the look. Then the burrow, I would love to se all the details and the rooms. Third one is the cmf, we have seen many nice characters. I'm so excited to get Myrtle! She actually have more a ghost look than the nearly headless Nick imo. And the accessoaries that we seen is amazing, especially to get 2 new books. Then the 2 small sets, I really liked to build the set Rise of Voldemort and hope the new sets is fun to build to! I think many of the general customers will skip buying PD if they will get an almost autentic car again if they already have WW. Customers that have none of them would probably only chose one of the set until all WW set have sold out when (if?) its retiring.

    It's what I was trying to say when I wrote about the pins on Hagrids hut, but it seems that I was a bit unclear :) I think it's the same with RoR.

    Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion

    Huh? What should I know?
  22. Crookshanks

    Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion

    Technically you can connect Hagrids hut to the castle that have pin connections to.. After that rumors we have and it's a set under 200 pieces it's hard for me to se it will be a good looking "castle section" because it have pins. But it's hard to say before any pictures. Imo it's a standalone set.

    Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion

    Maybe not like the old one, but a figure that have a similar look like the Hulk for an example. The look of the brickbuilt Ant man is terrible imo. But i'm glad that the centatures will compensed if Graup have a terrible look. The centatures and the otter is my favourite charachters/figures so far! (If I don't count the cmf). Lego have done a really good job with them! I don't think we will get like the Bride/Groom, more like Ron and Dumbledore.

    I'm really looking forward for the Brickheadz and curios how buckbeak will look. I wonder witch students we will get and hope that's one of them is Luna with her iconic glasses. It's really anoying to not get official pictures of all of the hp sets that will release this year.. I really hope that Graup will looking good and i'm actually a bit disapointed that they don't going to do him like the older set with troll in the bathroom.. (Ofc i'm courios on Astronomy tower and burrow to, it will be a nightmare if they fail with these)

    Exactly! Lego is really sneaky! It's expensive to buy GWP on the second market..
