    I have a Ninjago adjacent question. I was looking at the Movie sets on Brickset & when I got down to the bottom I noticed something I hadn’t before. A Toys R Us promo “Can’t Buy Me LEGO.” It talked of 1 of 5 dioramas, and the one shown is great. I don’t know how this escaped my radar, as well as a friend who is a die hard Movie fan too. I’ve done a little digging but can’t find much of anything on the other sets. So I’m coming to the experts. Anyone know more about this? The other dioramas?

    A friend and I go a couple times a year, if not more, on release day. Best of all so we don’t have to wait for shipping. But then there’s the parts wall & minifig bins to look through and see if there’s anything good to find. Plus, it’s just fun going to LEGO stores.

    Well shoot…I’m not exactly in a hurry either, but I hope it ships on the 12th. Gives me more time to find a home for it I guess… LEGO seems to be drunk though, it keeps shifting from 60 days to the 14th, back to 60 days…now it says Feb 8th. At this point I’m just gonna check daily to see where it jumps to next.

    I have backorder question, and since it’s Barad Dur I’ll ask here. When I ordered it yesterday it said ship Feb 12th. Now it’s saying 60 days. I’ve never ordered a backorder set, am I right to assume mine will still ship on the 12th & the now 60 day is because they got more orders?

    You forgot GWP’s are a scam born of greed.

    Something I just realized(and very well could’ve been mentioned pages back) is that with each castle section we’ve gotten a common room with their respective House Ghost(starting off with the best House, Hufflepuff) So we’ll finally be getting the Bloody Baron with Slytherin’s common room next. I’d also like to see a remake, and better, Whomping Willow. It would probably be too much to hope for just the tree & Anglia…but it would be nice if no castle part was added so they could focus on the Willow.

    If they didn’t have budget for a full grown doe, then that would definitely be a happy medium.

    Man! Since this post I have more than doubled my collection. 1064 and 531,739 parts. My rank is now 4961. when I look at how many sets I want to add to my city but don’t have the space…I realize I have a large collection. Then I look at the general state of my Lego room, unopened sets piling up, bags of parts, piles of instructions….I think maybe I have too much(but then I come to my senses, that’s not a thing).

    Ahh, okay. I was looking at the small Architecture Castle set to see maybe where it went. Nothing I saw that didn’t have a gray roof. It’s nice to see them adding to that side of the castle, something for the lonely greenhouse.

    I’d like to see a full building Grimmauld Place. The one we got is pretty nice, but it’s just a facade. I have had plans to enclose it…but if LEGO would do it, that would save me time & part buying. To the castle, where is the First Flying Lesson chunk meant to go? It’s at the back of the instructions as part of the system, but it doesn’t show how it connects.

    Pretty sure I’ve said this before, but considering how much their mech builds have been improving these last couple years, a Gundam license would be awesome(G or Wing would be my preference).

    I was hoping for something more baseplate friendly, only to make it fit better. But holy cow is this fantastic! Loved it from pictures but then watched the designer interview & I'm very excited to get it. I like the straight(ish) line layout f can possibly make it work with the Modulars. For me, as someone who hasn’t kept up with the show, the minifig lineup is good, but not overly exciting. I would prefer more townsfolk in a set like this.

    Couldn’t agree more. I get it tech is the *the* thing but it doesn’t have to be everywhere. Plus, we all know TLG’s track record with apps & all that. They’ve gotten this far largely without it…I wish they would just give up on that stuff. I imagine it would be neat for a few minutes to hear spells being cast & maybe some kind of casting noise…but I feel like the gimmick would fade. Like with the Sorting Hat. Hit it a few times when I built it, haven’t touched it since.

    Well, this theme sure is going out with a bang! I love those crystal fox creature things. I dig that we get so many colors.

    With the pigeons & rat I thought it was NY. It’s the same on instagram. A lot of criticisms of it looking like a Creator set despite having none of the characteristics of being a Creator set. No open back & not even remotely the same size. One person said on numerous accounts that it looks like something from Rebrickable, and it seemed like an insult. Looking at the windows they’re inset. So unless they have jumper plates on the inside floating or on 1x2’s that piece could be that 2x2 brick with grooves. Me & buddy looked over that area yesterday once he spotted the part. He’s hoping it’s the 1x2 for sure.
