    My favourites this year were:

    1) Gringotts. An amazing set, worth every second we had to wait for it! Contender for set of the year, along with Rivendell.

    2) Battle of Hogwarts. Finally, after all these years! Never thought I’d hold a Scabior minifig in my hand *huh*

    3) Second task. Now that’s how you do a remake! Such a cool upgrade with A+ minifigs.

    What I liked about the line this year in general were all the new prints (galleons, pygmy puffs, chocolate frog pack), the fact we got three proper DH2 sets, the return of the classic AC, and all the new characters!

    2024 is looking good so far too, except for the lack of new characters in the first wave. The second wave has to deliver big time to make up for that! :snicker:

    This ^^ (Thanks for writing it for me :pir_tong2:) 

    But I wanted to add that there are a few new characters in the first wave for 2024, just not human, like Trevor (first time he has been confirmed I think), Pidwidgeon, Fang and Norbert.

    The eyebrows are moveable, which is why they look slightly different (I think) :wink:

    I noticed the movement, but the eyes in the final product are cheeseslopes, but in the leak it was just 2 holes in the hat. It looks like there is more 'hat' around the eyes too. In the leaks, there were cheeseslopes in the eyebrows, wich are replaced in the final product by other parts. I even think the placement off the movement in the eyebrows has shifted from the 'nose' to the outside of the eyebrows.

    Fat Lady, the Longbottoms and Charlie Weasley only appear in photos or paintings, so I'm not expecting figures of them. 

    Thats true, I did not expect them either, until last year. We got a variant of Sirius in the Advent Calendar who's wearing something he only whore in a photograph. Furthermore, we even got the founders of Hogwarts in 2018, who only appear in promotional material for the movies. Therefor I think there are possibilities for these characters.

    Also, if we're counting Bem and Nigel, then iirc Pike was missing from the PoA list. 

    Off-course we count them. LEGO makes these sets off of the movies. They are in it.

    Honestly, there's so much there they could sell to me over time, and I can't imagine I'm the only one. lego, take my moneys please.

    You're not the only one. I absolutely want a Diagon Alley 2 with pretty much everything you mentioned. And Its compatible with Gringotts too, so Diagon Alley doesn't need to be around that long as long as Gringotts is on the shelves.

    I mashed both of your lists together and got a Count of 64.

    Character Movie Speaking or Non List Apperence
             

     

    Thanks, I updated mine. Some minor things:

    - Alicia Spinnet, Millicent Bulstrode and Eloise Midgen are all Non-Speaking.

    - You have the Housekeeping Witch twice in your list. :classic:

    I’m interested to know why people are so excited about Hagrid’s hut? The previous iteration was absolutely great and I don’t think a remake was needed. Obviously Fang and Norbert are a draw, but is this the only reason people are keen for this?

    The previous iteration was based on the hut from Prisoner of Azkaban onwards, while the new one should be based on the one from the first 2 movies, which basically was a different hut.

    60?! Are you counting every single random background student and Death Eater? :laugh_hard:

    In terms of actually important characters, it‘s closer to twenty or so.

    I count as LEGO themselves count. As they included even Florian Fortescue or Proffessor Sinistra I have added known non-speaking characters as well. I've separated them though:

    • Sets: Durmstrang ship, troll on the loose, third task, Lovegood house
    • Minifigs: BoH Ron, Xenophilius Lovegood, Narcissa Malfoy, Bill Weasley, other variants of Lockhart with the BTS hairpiece, Karkaroff

    The list gets shorter and shorter, but there are still some notable gaps I hope we can at least partialy fill next summer :laugh:

    I want to add Umbridge office at Hogwarts to this list and then I'm good.

    Do we NEED them though? 

    I go with the answers from BrickBob Studpants and Seaber. For Harry, Ron and Hermione in particulier I want every possible variant, especially now with the decreasing possibility of new characters in sets, from whom there are around 60 left.

    added boathouse set for clarification

    I aspect nothing, but the car cán come with new exclusive variants of both Harry and Ron. The outfits they weir in their escape from 4 Privet Drive are different from the outfits we got in both the Whomping Willow and 4 Privet Drive sets.  The same goes with Hagrids Hut. If it will accurately represent Norbert(a)s birth scene, then the trio ánd Hagrid should feature new and exclusive outfits. Even McGonnagal could weir an exclusive outfit, in the boathouse-set, if they go by her outside dress from mostly Philosophers Stone and Chamber of Secrets.
