  1. You've got a point there, I'm afraid this is going to be like the old 4867 Hogwarts set, it would also be weird if for example Dumbledore's office would be smaller than Snape's.
  2. I'm sorry, I'm dutch so my German is a little rough (like I failed all classes so I just read the article comparing the words to the very similar Dutch words xD), but I see they mention the courtyard and bridge in front of the clock tower, was that part of the set description or just explaining the building how it appears in universe? Also correct me if I'm wrong, but it did I read it right that you can fold open Hagrids Hut? Does that mean we'll just get the same part of the building as always? It might just look good enough to go for the other part of the Hut. Still a shame there's no Fang and Hagrid is the same as last year.
  3. They're also in black in the star wars theme, but that's the most common colour.
  4. Wow this is a lot of new information, didn't expect 2 Dementors, especially for that price. Let the army building begin. Really curious about the Horntail now, didn't expect molded wings (by the sound of it), a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. Now for the advent calender, I assume you guys are right about them keeping the figures a secret to make the opening more exciting. I wonder if Hermione's robes will be the exact same print as the cmf series, would be odd, but not unheard of. She probably has the Wingardium Leviosa page instead of the Marauders Map, but a Marauders Map would be nice, although it's a little bit too small. I hope the presents are a 1 day build and not take up 4 slots (although that depends on the size, haven't seen the pictures yet) still would be a little bit boring. Really interested in the campfire, I wonder if the upcoming sets leave room the decorate them yourselves (or redesign with ease). Ofcourse Harry is the best figure so far, although I wonder if Lego plans on keeping some Christmas variants for later years since there aren't too many of them.
  5. Thanks, you saved me just in time. Guess I'll wait for the official Pictures. Can't be far away now... I hope. Btw good to hear there's a new pumpkin piece (although kinda weird they made that over a new dragon head, but ofcourse pumpkins are reusable) Anyway this gives me high hopes for Hagrids Hut, by what we know so far this might be the best set out of the wave.
  6. Speaking about replacing parts, I think I'm going to replace Macnairs hood piece with the old black farmers hood/cowl piece. I think it works better and it makes him stand out more.
  7. We still haven't seen everything of yule ball Ron and Stan Shunpike yet, and if the rumored graveyard is true we haven't seen anything of that either. So still a lot to look forward to.
  8. Great review. I love the series. I kinda wonder what a young Donald duck using the legs and head of the triplets will look like. The white mouse heads on the the colourful bodies was also something I was planning to do, but they look a little bit creepy because of the eyes. Still Mickey isn't that bad, gives me epic Mickey vibes. But Minnie just looks dead Chip and Dale look better than I thought. Also Sally's new hairpiece is quite useful. I'm planning on using it on the old Harry Potter GoF mermaid figure. I hope we'll get it in different colours eventually (although since its used for Disney first I doubt it) However this also brought a few flaws to my attention I didn't notice before. First of all the printing on Scrooge is a little bit off compared to the cgi (or something like that) pictures. His eyes are a little too small and should've reached his beak. Also his feat should have been orange with red printing instead of the other way around. Still these things were kinda to be expected. However what I don't like is that Jafar's cape is not black at the back, despite what is shown on the back of the promotional poster. It limits its usability, kinda were planning on using it on thor. And it bothers me how the flames are glued onto Hades' head, although I guess otherwise it might break when feeling the bags. Did the leaked one already had the flames attached or not? I can't remember.
  9. This wave is such a disappointment. I really wished the Bo Beep was the classic version but it's just another repeat. I think I might just bricklink the figures because I really don't feel like buying all these sets for a few figures. Still thinking about using the Bo Beep hair and cane (I think) on a minidoll but I don't know if there are any minidollvparts I could use to make her. Any suggestions?
  10. True, but they are 100% the (original) Ducktales variants so it's still true
  11. Well ofcourse the theme had some polybags before the 2018 revival, but al had either Harry or a microbuild. Tbh the micro Knight Bus polybag from 2004 was pretty cool.
  12. Oh yeah I'm sorry I was purely talking about the mcu. Should've made myself more clear. Of course it's not the end of the world, and we still got a few nice variations, especially the Iron Man ones. But still, you would expect more of such a big cinematic event that's the end of an era.
  13. Well it's probably the last chance for us to get new versions of some characters that might leave the mcu after this movie. So I kinda wished they went all out for them, especially since it's such a big event. But instead they get a send-off in a suit that appears everywhere. So we might never get a shot at the cool comic accurate suits they wear in the movie. But for that exact same reason I'm still going to buy them, since it's probably our last chance to get certain characters.
  14. I like the 2 new figures. They're nothing too special but still another fine addition to my collection. I hope Fudge comes with a small cape, otherwise I'll give him one myself. Still I hope we'll get official images soon, I would like some surprises before we've seen everything from leaks.
  15. Yes that's the one. But it looks like the new wave of sets have that head with new expressions. (1 side appears to be slightly smirking) I hope the yet to be revealed side comes closest to Happy.
  16. I'm thinking about using the Hoskins head from the new Jurassic World Isla something wave for Happy Hogan. I think it might work better for his FFH appearance. Not really sure yet since I haven't seen very clear images of him yet (the previous version looked a little too angry)
  17. Except that Goofy's head isn't Pluto's. I mean if they do a new mold for both Chip and Dale they really won't cheap out on Goofy by giving him printed teeth.
  18. I love the new Sirius figure, but I'm no fan of the hair. Still useful for Bucky, now only 1 in black for Loki. Still in this case I rather had the madeye hair in dark brown.
  19. Was there a snake in PS? Besides the one in the zoo.
  20. Well there's this tweet: https://mobile.twitter.com/lego_group/status/914944734556286977 Still, it sounds way too good to be true. But since it appears these figures are on top of most people's wanting list who knows. And tbh it would be the only set I could accept without goofy.
  21. I hope so. A set of the Money Bin will be a lifelong dream come true (not even exaggerating) but sadly I doubt it. Then again I never would've believed we would get scrooge and the triplets as figures either so who knows.
  22. Oké here we go again (might change the list when the D2C is revealed) I'm trying to put as much variety in as possible because an honest wishlist would be basically only Duckburg citizens 1. Sorcerer's Apprentice Mickey 2. Yen Sid 3. Goofy 4. Pete (Epic Mickey/Mickey Mouse shorts variation) 5. Winnie the Pooh 6. Tigger 7. Cruella De Vil 8. Snow White 9. Evil Queen/witch 10. Warrior Mulan 11. Pinocchio 12. Rapunzel 13. Flynn 14. Carl 15. Russel 16. Tarzan 17. Jane 18. Sora
  23. 5 points! Woohoo! xD
  24. There's only 1 possible reaction I could give and that's: WOOHOO! I mean wow, just wow. This series is almost perfect to me. Such amazing minifigures and finally some accessories. Where should I start? Scrooge McDuck is my favourite figure from the series. He's my favourite Disney character in general and tbh I would've never thought we would ever get him. I love the inclusion of his number 1 dime. Then there are the nephews, they were even less likely than Scrooge but I'm so happy we got them. Huey is definitely the best figure because of the amazing new book print. I guess it would've been easier to just give them the black comics torso and just 3 different heads in 1 bag, but I like this better. I guess the 2 new duck head molds look kinda odd, but so did Donald last time, I think they look just fine how they are. Chip and Dale were an even bigger surprise. I would've prefered them into a small mold but this awesome as well. I'm thinking about giving Chip (or was it Dale) the vacation Robin torso to create the rescue rangers. Jafar looks amazing, great new head print. Kinda wished for Iago but it makes sense he's not there, maybe someday in the princess theme. Same could be said about Jasmine. Hades looks even better than I thought, the new tentacles(?) were not necessary but a nice inclusion anyway. Hercules looks also amazing. Very useful pieces. Jack Skelington and his wife look fine, but I'm not too interested in that movie. Still I like the new printed gift. Anna and Elsa are looking so cute! Gotta get my hands on an Olaf now. Frozone looks exactly like what I hoped for. I like the inclusion of his disc. Edna was a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. Now I can finally forget about that awful polybag which I couldn't even get my hands on. Only thing I don't like are Mickey and Minnie. Such a waste of figures. I assume they were in here before the ideas set got approved. I wish they gave us coloured versions instead. And come on! Still no Goofy?! This is getting ridiculous. That's like giving us the star wars theme without Han Solo, Harry Potter but no Ron, Batman without Robin. You get the point. I hope he and pluto are in the d2c or that we'll get a third series. Because we truly need Goofy. In the end I still love the series. Definitely a day 1 purchase (if I can find them all that is) The series feels like an incredibly unlikely wishlist, which is a good thing. I would've never guessed this list.
