BrickBob Studpants

That’s weird, why did they decide to include that particular outfit then? Just as a variant for those who own the Bricktober pack? My low-key excitement for that set just dropped to zero.

Which is pretty dang early, considering the set’s scheduled for November Nonetheless, quite excited to hear more

It’s only semi-confirmed at this point

That doesn’t sound too bad actually As long as they’re not uncanny valley nightmare zombies, I’m now ok with them Still a baffling set choice, but giant minifigs at least won’t look terrible

Except it’s a lot cheaper and not a D2C set I still don’t know what puzzles me more about this set: that it exists or how they could possibly achieve anything worthwhile at this price point

I'm wondering if those Harry & Hermione figures could establish a new product range, sort of like a more expensive counterpart to Brickheadz? Depending on the way they're actually constructed and how well they end up selling, I could see that idea spilling over into other themes

Not even an exorcist could save them U sure? I wonder how you'll build Dobby's sock with only one hand

Dang, I'm just amazed at how quickly this fell apart for me. The D2C and Fawkes sets both sound ok, but the Harry and Hermione set just broke my spirit. Just... WHY?!?!

Nothing about this wave makes any sense, it's the most random mishmash of half-baked ideas I've ever seen Looks like they had a brainstorming session for what they could do this year and just decided to realise ALL of it

Expectation: Hogwarts expansion based on the Battle of Hogwarts Reality: buildable figures of Harry and Hermione WHAT HAPPENED HERE I DONT UNDERSTAND

Phew If that was our DH representation for this year, I would've been real mad But still, how can that even work? They've never done buildable human figures before, and for good reason. Must be hyper-stylised I assume?

This means war.

Really? There's no way these can look any good, unless they're just enlarged minifigs

Regarding 76393: most of the crazy suggestions I've seen here are human characters, but I don't think that would work, like at all. Especially not for roughly 60$ for each figure. Wouldn't a pair of animals / beasts make way more sense?

Excellent idea! We're still missing a forbidden forest set in this wave, so that would be perfect. Too perfect for this weird wave though...

Besides, if they ever considered to release a rebel pilot helmet, wouldn't Luke's helmet be the more obvious choice? I can't even tell who this one belongs to, dark red ones aren't all that common Edit: Looks like a user on stonewars named Eric solved the mystery; it's a random helmet after all. He spotted it in the VW Beetle designer video right at the beginning of the video:

It was on March 14th. A rumour of a flying lesson Moments set popped up, which Guyon commented with "So it begins". Of course the rumour, courtesy of a particularly tricksy Hobbit, turned out to be fake, which we found out thanks to Guyon, who consulted with his source again. However, the "damage" was already sort of done, because his initial comment basically confirmed that Hooch will be included in that set

And if it doesn't improve next year, you also get to enjoy some delicious finger food, so you have at least that to look forward to Guyon accidentally confirmed that one last week or so

Hang on a second, where did that one come from? A bonus set? Edit: That's the advent calendar

More than halfway actually, at this point 76394 is the only complete mystery left

Dobby and Kreacher (which would be excellent if minifigs were included as well) Scabbers and Crookshanks Trevor and Umbridge Thestral and baby Thestral Owl that isn't Hedwig and Errol Draco as a transfigured ferret and Crabbe's pants Scabbers as a half-transfigured cup and McGonagall in animagus form Norberta and Fang Niffler and multiple baby Nifflers

I hope the buildable figures at least include some interesting minifigs to go along with them

Whoops, I forgot the prices are in a weird order for this wave I assume 76395 is the one with Hooch, leaving only 76394 for something else. At that price point, Hagrid's Hut and most of the other remake ideas are out the window too. Any ideas?

So to sum up today’s revelations: 76391 is a chess set 76392 is a pair of brick-built characters 76393, 94 or 95 is Fawkes One of two that isn’t Fawkes includes Hooch Am I missing something?

That may well be the case, but that’s still just anecdotal evidence And the theme may need a while to warm up. My point was just that it’s way too early to tell, especially in the toy business Which would make no sense minifig-wise since the only characters involved in the whole sequence are the trio and Quirrell. Not enough to serve as the basis for even two sets, let alone three or four
