    Also can we talk about how Promobricks thought this Battle of Hogwarts set is based on the Clock Tower? 

    The movie-set entrance of the Great Hall was a redress of the movie-set used for the Clock Tower. It's thus not that hard to confuse the two.

    About the leak: I'll will save my judgement for when there's better pics out there, but for now I like what I see.

    Would a recolour of the boxer’s headpiece not be a good representation of Ron’s quidditch headgear? I’m surprised that we’ve never had it in any set yet…

    That could work yes, but we than also need Halfblood Prince Quidditch torso's (actual game ánd try-outs are different), because the ones we currently have are based on the first movies.

    Ron's only seen playing Quidditch in that movie.

    I personally hope the Quidditch Trunck gives us one of those outfits.

    For what it's worth, the Chamber of Secrets had a dark tan owl as well. The Hospital Wing had a sand blue one. I don't remember any others.

    4 Privet Drive had, besides the flying Hedwig, a dark Brown one, same for The Burrow and Diagon Alley had the City one with the wink eye and the Dark Brown one, besides the flying Hedwig. 2020 was a great year for the Owl.

    The sonic sets' Eggman torso would be perfect for an Aunt Marge! Probably not the only one to think that immediately. I guess we will have to wait for next year to see if they utilize it but it's a pretty generic shape to reprint on. :thumbup:

    You're not the only one. It's a great fit.

    I thought from the way she listed the characters in the BoH set that the "guardian statue" will be a minifig; "So as for minifigures you will be getting...". Contrasted with the ones where she was specifically not sure ("the figures I expect will come in this set" & "so I'm thinking it will come with"), the WWW and Hogwarts Express & Hogsmeade Station sets.

    Yeah you are right. I've rewatched the vid. She even ends it with: ''probably just a grey minifigure". 


  6. Promobricks vid is here:

    - Patronus-set should be a 2 in 1 set, where you could build either a stag or a wolf. There should be a new sort of wandelement which she calls 'eye-contact'.

    - BoH is compatible with the latest Hogwarts-sets and there should be a (buildable?) statue in it.

    - Buildable trunck has named characters of Harry, Draco, Cho and Cedric and has extra hair and head pieces to create your own.

    - AC is Hogsmeade themed and has microbuilds of three broomsticks and zonko.

    - Hogwarts Castle and Grounds should be a close copy of a bootleg company.

    - Dobby doesn't feature a minifig.

    Unless they take as long as last time to drop the news, at which point I might be back home already :laugh_hard:

    They talk about Harry Potter around half an hour in. 

    My German isn't the best, I didn't understand much of it, but for my understanding the twins are confirmed to be in WWW. Nothing on the rest of the figs. They talk a little about Gringotts, but no new news I believe.


  8. HollyOnFilm has uploaded their review of the Gryffindor House Banner set (46409). Not so much new going on, but a small detail they noticed is the the Gryffindor cardigan isn't exactly the same as in the 2020 Hogwarts Room of Requirement (75966) as shows the comparison below: (left is new, right is old)

    For the folks of the Netherlands out here: Het Deenste Steentje has pre-orders up for all new March Harry Potter sets with reduced prices. All 4 banners go for € 27,95 apiece for instance.

    It would have been nice if Harry had some flippers for his feet but considering they gave him medium legs which aren't dual molded or printed, I guess it makes sense that they left them out.

    It's not visible in all photo's, but Harry certainly has his flippers in some of the pics.

     I do have to wonder if there’s any possible set left that could give us second task Cedric and Fleur. I think the only possible set (outside of a cmf or other oddity) would be to shoehorn them into a Durmstrang ship set. 

    They could show up in an Advent Calendar.
