  1. Pictures of the minifigs included in the Ollivander’s and potion classroom sets can be found in the usual place! Love the new Snape minifig (with arm printing!!) and that new flask piece! So cool to finally see a rounded one like that after it was teased all the way back in 2001
  2. Love all the new minifigs here! I’m a bit split on Ezra’s blue eyes tho. They usually reserve coloured eyes for alien characters, so it’s inconsistent to have Ezra be the only human character to have them in a looooooong time, but then again, his bright eyes are a key feature of his design
  3. Those were discontinued for all themes, the last ones having been released in 2022 I really liked those, even with their limitations
  4. It's not a leak but an official reveal, and those can happen whenever TLG and/or their license partners feel like it, it seems. Might be a Nintendo thing since the Mario sets also tend to get revealed early, as was the first AC wave last October
  5. Both sets have been revealed or leaked (hard to tell)! Nice to see a set with more than 2 minifigs, and KK looks great! Really like the dodo pilot too (forgot his name), as well as the two new villagers! Oh, and Maple is exclusive to the polybag after all
  6. I forgot what the description of the potions classroom said, but maybe it actually consists of two modules or comes with its own castle section it can slide out of? Personally, I like this modular system a lot more than the previous one. Now let‘s hope they‘ll release more than just a small handful of modules this time!
  7. What happened to the stickered ceiling? Not that I miss it, the clouds and floating candles look better anyway I’m very happy with the wave so far! Now I can’t wait to see the Durmstrang ship, Karkaroff, and the new flasks in the potion classroom!
  8. Vector and the Fat Friar look great Can someone identify the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students?
  9. The Ender Dragon now has a moulded head! I wonder if there are two copies in the set, one for the dragon itself, and one for the End ship The geode looks cool too, and the usage of the crystal piece in satin trans-purplr is very clever
  10. Pictures of the Wolf Stronghold (or Outpost?) are in the usual place! Very cute build for the wolf head, and the new player skin looks cool
  11. Looooove that new troll!! Can’t tell if that teacher is actually Vector… And no ghost in sight! The GH itself looks cool Also, nice repurposing of Pince‘s hat for Malkin!
  12. So many new pieces for this, kinda getting jealous as a fan of less fortunate themes Indy is dead, long live Gabby?! HELL NAW
  13. No. Renown works in mysterious ways. He pops in, drops vague hints, and leaves He principally doesn‘t follow up on it
  14. A new moulded piece? For DC?! In 2024?! Whatever next (I’m referring to Freeze’s helmet, pretty sure the cape is the same as Thor’s). Seriously though, love that Batmobile! So glad they went for the dark blue colour scheme. The other two are not much to write home about
  15. Considering the number of themes with new releases in June, it‘s gonna be a busy week Apart from HP, we have Star Wars, DC, Marvel, Jurassic World, Ideas, City, Friends, and Ninjago, maybe even more. Not gonna be easy to spread them out
  16. No, you‘re correct, @Brick Clicker said the bird would be brick-built He also said a reveal would likely happen next week, which makes sense. We‘re running out of opportunities this week since they don‘t typically reveal sets on weekends
  17. Definitely in the top 3, along with the 8-10 sets based on The Batman What does that even mean? The catcycle having Catwoman’s face on it instead? A Catwoman mech that can turn into a bike? …count me in
  18. How about her not even being a minifigure in the first place? TLG have started to only use the term "minifig" for actual minifigs, all the others are called "figures" (like "droid figure")
  19. Last year, it was on the 1st of May, and other years it was also a bit late, like on the 25th or the 28th of April. So, we‘re still within the normal range! 2022 spoiled us a bit with the reveal on April 8th
  20. First I‘m hearing of this! There are currently no set numbers unaccounted for, and we’ve had complete set lists for the entire year for all the themes for quite a while now And if there was another wave, we‘d be at six this year! Or seven, if you count the Sail Barge and the anniversary set as the October wave
  21. There is going to be one in September, 40695 with 190 pieces I assume it gets launched alongside the Burrow!
  22. Hooray for @Renown still being with us! As for the hint, it has to be about a regular minifig since we now know all of the anniversary ones. The only sets with some still unidentified minifigs are Jedi Bob’s Starfighter, the Death Star playset, and the Dark Falcon (plus the Skeleton Crew ship, but we know nothing about the characters yet). None of them have obvious options though. The Falcon minifigs are non-canon (apart from Dark Rey), so how could one of them be confidently called brainwashed, the DS set has no clear candidates either, and the Jedi Bob set even less so. Unless there’s a set we’re unaware of?
  23. At the latest, I‘d say! Could be any day now!
  24. Highly doubt it. The design work on the Maleficent minidoll set started roughly a year ago, by which point the Castle wasn‘t even launched and the clamshell had just hit shelves. They can‘t completely overhaul a set this spontaneously and with no real sales data to work with. Besides, the success of any given set (or most toys for that matter) can only really be assessed after Xmas, given how many of them end up under a tree
  25. At this point, we‘re expecting official reveals, the time for leaks has run out
