Sounds like the synopsis of a heist movie

I hope the small City and Marvel leaks today are just the advance party and the 2HY floodgates will be opened soon HP tends to be among the first themes to get descriptions, so fingers crossed!

Awesome news! A rare case when something that sounds too good to be true is actually true

This is our first calf, so yes, it is new

2022 must be the year of the baby animals then Too bad there’s no new chick, missed opportunity

I don’t think that’s been confirmed anywhere. People just assume it’s an MBS set because the last three were released two years apart As us HP fans had to learn the hard way last year, release patterns aren’t always as predictable as we think they are

My money is on a remake of the 2005 DS II set $530 seems a bit much for a MBS-style set and I doubt they’d remake the DS playset again this soon

Good point. I’d say it‘s either a new colour or a resurrected medium brown Hopefully the leaker will have their 2004 Spider-Man 2 sets ready to make a proper comparison

I think we haven‘t seen the scared expression before, or have we? Yeah, apart from that, there‘s nothing new these leaks could show us. After all, we have full pictures of everything included in the March wave

Good to hear Some people took the „this is Amazon‘s GOT“ thing very literally

It was intended to be a hybrid event from the get-go, so what was cancelled was the (more important) offline part I wouldn‘t expect anything out of it

Lambasting their social media platforms with annoying hashtags, perhaps? That seems to have worked for the 501st Clone Trooper set …please don‘t actually do that

Looks promising, but I‘m still baffled they haven‘t managed to get a single well-known actor to star in it Selling the most expensive show in history based on name recognition alone is a bit of a gamble, let‘s hope it pays out for them

No, since TLG won‘t be attending. The only info we might get this year is if they decide to reveal anything during the online part of the Nuremberg Toy Fair They didn‘t show anything last year if I remember correctly, so this year probably won‘t be any different.

Never would have guessed Agreed. After the show, most people will primarily associate the character with Isaac’s portrayal and thus, merchandise should be no issue Pretty much the opposite of Peacemaker or Deadpool in that sense

I‘m actually glad the rumour turned out to be false since I wouldn‘t have been happy with a brick-built version. Fingers crossed for a dark grey recolour of the 2013 one in a future set

Huh, interesting that some people actually guessed the name correctly Doesn‘t happen that often with film and show titles

Yeah, that appears to be the source of confusion. The films were made by WB, the streaming rights are with Amazon I think (if so, top-notch planning, guys) and the theme park attraction is at Universal At this point, I‘d gladly take a Death Eater accessory pack as our only representation for any of the bigger battles Don’t get we wrong, most if not all of them would make for great sets, but since TLG apparently refuse to tackle them in favour of more whimsical sets, I‘d accept that as an approximation

Do we, though? The Rancor is obviously not included in the throne room set, so that rumour was definitely false. And there’s no way a leaker already knew about the contents of a still nameless TBoBF set scheduled for June

Don’t you mean WB? Sure, the design team can‘t just do whatever they want without approval from WB, but they do have veto powers. After all, the SW designers got their way with Krennic‘s Shuttle, so the HP team could surely release a specific set too if they push for it

Huh, completely forgot it took us this long to get Snowtroopers At least Scout Troopers and B-1 Battle Droids were there from the very beginning I‘d be happy with at least two variations. More is probably too much to ask for Somewhere in the spectrum between veeeeeery slim and non-existent I would say

I meant generic masked Death Eaters (and Greyback technically isn’t one in any case) And we can add Macnair to the list of named ones too. I’m very happy with the named villains and hench(wo)men we got, there’s actually not too much left in that category. I don’t really need Dolohov or the Carrows for instance, but Yaxley or Thicknesse would be neat additions What we do need however are generic masked ones to represent two of the best battles in the series (the Battle at the Department of Mysteries and the Battle of the Seven Potters)

They're too humanoid though to justify a specialised mould, at least in my opinion Not every alien needs one

QuiggoldsPegLeg thought it was encouraging that TLG put in the effort to create a Quarren mould when they could just as well have included a Weequay minifig instead, to which jdubbs replied that "[both] would surely be too much to ask for" with his signature sarcastic undertone, implying he knew what was coming Or this is just a coincidence, but jdubbs has done this more than once before

I knew @jdubbs was dropping a hint there, that sly devil
