Wow. Orders FINALLY went through. Once I got into the cart, and had an error in the checkout. I left that open and just kept hitting f5/refresh and it eventually worked. Once you get to the last window it seems to go well.

Same boat. Cant' get to cart. This and constantly receiving smashed and damaged items all year is starting to kill my interest in Lego.

Bearded Ron, new Lestrange and cloaked adult Harry - YESSSS

What at time to be alive - Dobby's SOCK and Gringotts in the same year?

I'd suspect, perhaps, it's a USC Benatar, only slightly bigger than the Benatar we currently have but costing a lot more.

Looks really impressive but disappointed in parts of it. - Lack of minifigures of all the Epilogue seems the only other chance to get them is in a CMF series. I'd really hope that this train is compatible with the trains, or this may just be a really good looking dust collector, and the lack of King's Cross station is also a major disappointment. Overall the set should be 400-450 US at most. The minifigures they did include are really great and the train design itself is perfection.

My guess - (in US dollars) 150 or 160 on the low end 200 for the high end

I'm very disappointed in the news for the D2C Hogwarts Express. It's a non-motorized Displayable-focused set with multiple quote pieces. There is only one passenger car and that car is double the length of ones from other sets - combining them will simply not look good. Minifigure selection is meh and I can't understand why you wouldn't include the entire trio and the rest of the Epilogue family. For the same price as this one, you can get 3-4 of the 2018 versions and get a long train, motorized, and can build a sweet Hogsmeade or King's Cross Platform. Hoping it looks better than this description. Between the price hike and this, I'll definitely pass on it unless the pictures do it justice, or if this description is not accurate.

Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Marvel has purchased Stan Lee's likeness in a 20-year deal. One of the parts of the deal is that "Lee can appear as a toy, on stationary, apparel, and video games, and in virtual reality". Stan Lee minifigure is no longer out of the question.

Sets sound great! Curious which set or sets may end up in Costco in the US for MUCH cheaper...

If it's a creator expert sized weirdness, it'll be easy money to save!

Does that mean it's minifig sized?

Made it's first and significant appearance in the second film, It is a major plot point in the third movie, and seen in at least one more later. It's very iconic in HP lore. It'll be the new Luke's Landspeeder before you know it...lol

Interesting that Sirius Rescue set as a colon with the "Hogwarts Courtyard" - suggesting we will get MORE courtyard sets to round out a subseries.

I'm literally going to buy 2 of many of the sets, especially Grimmauld Place and the Ministry. This doesn't seem REAL. So many minifigures we were hoping for. Even Mrs. Norris, Filch's Cat!

WOWOWWOWOW these sets are absolutely FANTASTIC.

Makes me wonder if the Trench run is a displayable minifigure scale set in a similar vein as the Jurassic Park T rex Breakout set

Off topic - if anyone of you uses Bricklink - they had a cybersecurity attack and account info like passwords were taken. I recommend changing any password you use with that one. On topic - that list is great! I can't see it being anything other than what's on the list.

Problem with that logic is that the 2018 Castle microfigure-scale set is still being produced and sold. The Death Star analogies had almost a year gap between them. This is an entirely different set. If they redo it, it would come the earliest next year.

I really hope it includes TWO goats. My assumption on the size is that it will be built up to be a lot taller, probably looking like it's on some kind of mountain with a "river" on one side. Something like Ninjago City Gardens wide. OR it may be something similar to the rebrickable I've seen (and built, which is a GREAT build) https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-80329/mocscout/medieval-fortress-31120-medieval-castle-alternative/#details

Nothing like insulting the moderator of this very forum...DRAMA.

So it IS a sequel to Lego Movie 2...

That explains the set then...lol I will give props that if they had a short development it came out well. I just wish it was more refined.

Bingo - I was planning on buying both as the Goat Boat is the GOAT, but without any kind of unique character or pieces to really draw in the smaller set, it's an incredibly easy pass.

I envisioned something incredibly simiIlar. I thought it could be done with a simple sliding facade in between the 2 Grimmauld front at the front sidewalk. I pictured it with RB's room, the room the gang stays in on the 3rd floor, a staircase to reenact the listening scene, 2nd floor would be a tapestry room and the staircase landing for a portrait for Kreacher to clean, and then the hallway and kitchen on the ground floor. The back would open like the Home Alone set. The scene would enact a Christmas scene and be as "festive" as can be.
