Kyp

the bones were animal bones (at least in the german version) :P but yeah we should come back to the topic of what we want in this set. wich i by the way think is the coolest of the new wave. (astronomy.. tower.. yeeaaah :D)

yeah i was refering to Killing curses used during the battle, i doubt that there where people using this ages ago in the dungeons, without anyone noticing. and although you are right about the Chamber wich i totally forgot, as far as i know knowone ever died down there, leaving a skeleton :P

Well played sir, well played!

to be honest, i find that rather stupid. why should there be a rotten corpse in the dungeon? Hogwarts was nearly closed with Myrthes Death and Diggorys Death was a scandal too, i doubt that they are storing old corpses in the basement. And most spells like Avada Kedavra leave the Body anharmed and even Sectum Sepmra "just" cuts people open. I'm quite a nerd i just noticed :D Alright, I totally hope for cool text on that blackbord and that they Change the Beds to Ravenclaw colours. And i hope that they change the Trelawny room to something cooler, cause this room is kinda poor compared to the nice Portraits and the Awesome Astronomy Tower. god i Love this Tower. Want it. Want it SO bad! I just noticed i would find it much cooler if they change the "rockbasement" to a third floor, like the simular Tower of last years Hogwarts.

How could you forget Lockharts name?! I mean he is the five-time winner of Witch Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award!!! is there anything more important?

I just want as many sets as possible :P mostly parts of Hogwarts for my Building-your-own-Hogwarts project and a looot of characters. and Slughorn and Gilderoy of course. But there is a seperate topic for this, we should concentrate on the new sets now :P

I live in Germany as well, in NRW and all HP sets were avavible in every shop around here, exept for Diagon ally but that was still avavible in Lego Shops in Oberhausen and Köln..

I Knew i would by the Battle of Hogwarts set when i heared its name and i was convinced when i saw this awesome astronomy tower. but there are some nice little details in the other rooms as well. I like Trelawnys room and the new portraits. although i'm wondering what exactly is on the blackboard in the right tower?

that is a good point

well you got one wish granted Mrlestrange ;)

didn't you know that Kit Fisto was a famous Quidditch Player in the Hogwarts Hufflepuff team of 02? The Jedi Buisness is more of a hobby for him :D

did anyone notice the white feathery thing on the balcony of the left tower of the Hogwarts set? what is that?

I'm really exited because of the new photos although Voldemort in the forbidden forest is the same who was in the Hogwartscastle of 2010. and to be honest i think he just looks rediculous. i took his head to build a mean looking Peeves but i don't think he really gives a good Dark lord.. not like the one we got in the Globet of Fire line. I love this head and i'm still using it. It looks so wonderfull evil and snakelike. but apart from that the Forest scene is awesome. a cheap way to get Mushrooms and Trees and Narzissa is wonderful.

the old one was okay it worked with the pale head and its kind of a childish memory (i think it was released 10 years ago, when i was 11) but i just love the new one. its just more realistic and how i would imagine it from the book.

really nice ideas but to be honest.. the kingscross set won't happen. the disfigured Voldemort is just way do dark and gruesome (although i don't know how it will be portrayed in the movie but the picture that the Book created in my head is nothing one would produce in a toy). On the Otherhand again there was a burned Anakin aswell.. so maybe there is hope. But if Lego produces this sets my wallet will cry..

Well if you want all the Weaslys, you forgot Charlie. (and aunt muriel :D) I really really hope for a new Sirius, the old one kinda sucked, a Slughorn cause i really love this guy and a fleshy new Lockhart. Because lets face it, Lockhart ist the most handsome and talented person on the Planet. i want to be like him one day.

yeah i'm already looking for Stickerpaper to print them on :D

yeah, i mean i can live without Hufflepuff and i could have lived without Ravenclaw as well but now that they introduced this awesome Luna I can't wait for a Ravenclaw uniform to fit her into my hogwarts. Someone said that he wished for Hogwartsstudent Battlepacks a few pages earlier. I know how bad the chances are, but if they should ever do this before their license ends, i am totally buying a hole stock of those. BTW are there any Internetshops selling costum Hogwarts uniforms?

yeah good point, i forgot the half of my sentence while i was writing :D i wanted to say: While it is a good argument that they still might exchange Lucius with another Deatheater, i acctually think Crabbe/goyle is a great choice for the battle set because of their important role in the Battle.

I'm so exited. Mostly about Sproud and the neat Astronmy Tower, but the other Figures are nice as well. While it is a good argument that they still might exchange Lucius with another Deatheater, i acctually think Crabbe/goyle (not sure who this one is because these to guys are pretty alike). Especially because Crabbe *SPOILER* is responsible for the Fire in the Room of Requirement wich leads to the destruction of Ravenclaws Diadem *SPOILER END* I am so glad that this is not battledamaged but a really great expansion to my Hogwarts collection wich i am working on scince the first Movie's Lego Harry Potter Line.

theres nothing to say but: awesome!

i am so used to the flesh coloured Potter figures that the yellow ones realy seem strange. But thats my problem ^^ Your creation is awesome and the mechanism is very clever. i am really surprised that these are not 2 sets, but one transformable. Great work!

a big thanks to all of you for all the great new infos. I am so freaking happy that we get sprout, also my wallet is silently crying because of the Price for Diagon ally and the prices for the sets to come. I don't want to say they are unfairly priced because i really think they aren't, the problem is I'm just a poor poor student :D. But the Diagon Ally was so worth it, and these sets will surly be too!

damn, i can't wait for more infos or even pictures >.< i'm refreshing the site every 15 minutes just in case :D

i would be so happy to get Sprout, she is the only important teacher missing. Like Legofreak pointed out she will be in DH2 and i think her role in the Battle for Hogwarts wasn't of such small importance either. At least in the book she is important for the planning of strategies and the magical defence of the castle, so i think she would be a great fit. If they manage to fit Sprout, Slughorn(who is awesome) and some Phonix order soilders in this set, my head will explode. an explosion of joy.
