LEGO Star Wars 2019 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
GryffindorResistance replied to Stash2Sixx's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Here's some guesses on the 2019 sets: - Death Star (Juniors) - Leia will most likely have the new dress piece, making her exclusive - Slave I (Regular) - Finally, a mid-scale version. They have to include Zuckuss. This is their only chance!! - Canto Bight Chase - Exactly what you would think: Police speeder and Fathier for Rose and Finn - More Episode I sets. Being that they're doing the Naboo Starfighter and Sith Infiltrator as micros, I can see them making bigger versions for the 20th Anniversary, and possibly the Podracer. We are longggg overdue. - Villain Ship? - Imperial Star Destroyer or AT-AT? Please? - May the 4th - Tantive IV. This would be the most perfect time to do it. -

GryffindorResistance replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Anyone know what's planned for the 20th Anniversary? What Lego should do would be make one set for each movie. These could be the smaller sets . Podracer (I) . Speeder Bikes (VI) . Rey vs Kylo (VII) . Anakin vs Obi-Wan (III) These could be the bigger sets . Republic Gunship (II) . AT-AT (V) . Tantive IV (IV) . Kylo Ren's Shuttle (including duel with Luke) (VIII) -

So the 5 Wizarding World sets - are they for Winter or Summer? A bit odd if they didn't do more Fantastic Beasts sets in the winter following the movie!- 8,371 replies

The UCS Castle is truly amazing but I think they shouldve just done a giant Great Hall and Main tower (minifig scale) at a $300 price tag, and then in a year, do another UCS of a second part of the castle (like the Ninjago City and Docks sets). In between, we could get smaller Hogwarts sets like the Whomping Willow, Hagrid's Hut, etc.- 8,371 replies

The only problem I have with CMFs is that they always look like they are made with lower quality plastic and printing than the minifigs that come in sets. Know what I mean? Does anyone know why?- 8,371 replies

Harry Potter 2018 - Rumors & Discussion
GryffindorResistance replied to Robert8's topic in LEGO Licensed
Having a micro-scale Hogwarts is a good thing and a bad thing! PROS - More Hogwarts pieces to come at an affordable price to connect with the Great Hall and Whomping Willow - Possibly Clock Tower, Boat House, Greenhouses, Dumbledore's Office, Chamber of Secrets - Will probably be a nice display piece. - Lego is already going all out with the other sets and minifig series CONS - I had my hopes up for a minifig-scale one! - Not sure how well it will sell. I feel that the main draw to Hogwarts is all of the interesting classrooms and places to put your characters in, so with this set not really having that (it does, but not in the way we know!) not sure how it will go with consumers I can see it looking something like the Noble Collection's Hogwarts model https://www.noblecollection.com/Item--i-STS-HP-7074- 8,371 replies

I work for Lego so I can confirm this. On 7/1, we'll get Great Hall, Hogwarts Express, Whomping Willow, and Quidditch, while on 8/1, we'll get the 2 Fantastic Beasts sets, Aragog, and the CMF line! Very excited they pushed up the date!- 8,371 replies

If we are on the subject of the UCS Hogwarts, I have a couple of ideas on how it could possibly be laid out. First off, it depends on if LEGO is planning to move forward with the films, or continue to still focus on the first 3. I'm assuming the castle will be more like a mix between the 60's Batcave, Joker Manor, and Assault on Hoth, giving us large castle pieces, but separated by 2-3 sections. Figure, we are already getting the Great Hall with one tower, and also, the Whomping Willow courtyard, so I could see the set including these buildings: MAIN TOWER (a much larger scale version of the tower next to the great hall) - 3 layers (Dungeons -> Moving Staircases -> Dumbledore's office at the top) THE CLOCK TOWER - I can see this build being quite similar to the 2004 Hogwarts castle, but cleaned up. A couple of classrooms on the side, with the Clock in the center. - Could include: Divination Room, Lupin's classroom with Boggart cupboard (to coincide with the train set) - Flying boar gates VIADUCT ENTRANCE/CENTRAL TOWER (The one to the far right of the Great Hall in which the bridge leads into) - This would be a good spot for classrooms, library, and maybe Gryffindor tower. - If they are sticking with the 1-3 theme, I could see the possibility of Myrtle's bathroom (indicating a future Chamber of Secrets set), the Troll bathroom, or even Fluffy's trapdoor. All of these buildings would be in scale with The Great Hall and Whomping Willow sets. If the Hogwarts really is closer to a $500 price range, I could definitely see it having at least 2 of these main buildings. If a 3rd building isn't included, I could see it having some small extra pieces, like the Boat House, Greenhouse or some smaller piece. As for figures, we can assume Harry, Ron, Hermione, a couple of new students, maybe Trelawney and Flitwick, dementors, a Dumbledore or McGonagall variant, maybe another ghost, and of course, Lord Voldemort (I know he's not in it until Goblet, but how could they have this set without a Voldemort variant).- 8,371 replies

Hate being this guy... but haven't been on Eurobricks in a couple of days - are there any updates on the remaining 3 sets (what they are/minifigs)? Are all 3 of them Solo? Or is one the rumored Canto Bight chase? I know one is the Imperial Hauler. -

Sandcrawler - very odd choice of figures. At least give us C-3PO and Aunt Beru Imperial Landing Shuttle - Interesting, but there are so many other sets they could've done before this. And the fact that no figures are new... Snoke's Throne Room - Small, nice, and to the point. Snoke figure needs so much updating, don't know why they didn't fix it.. Anakin's Starfighter - Would've been nice to add Ahsoka as well X-Wing - Perfect, waited a long time for this revival Hoth Medical Chamber - Interesting. Surprising that they waited this long to FINALLY put both Luke and Leia in a small set. A small set with the two of them was needed for a while, because all kids love Luke and Leia! Endor speeder bike chase with an ewok would've been a better set choice though. -

So I've been doing some thinking after seeing these leaks today... It makes me very curious to see which minifigs will be in Hogwarts and which will be in the Collectible Minifigure Series. I made somewhat of a "master list" of all the possible characters they could do at this point, basing around years 1-3: - Harry, Ron, Hermione variants - Draco (Quidditch) - The Dursleys - Ollivander - Griphook - Dobby - Molly and Arthur -Fred and Geroge - Snape (Boggart) - Dumbledore and McGonagall variants - Neville - Ginny - Flitwick, Lockhart, Trelawney, Sprout, Pomfrey, Hooch - Collin Creevey - Lucius Malfoy - Moaning Myrtle - Sirius or Wormtail and the big question.... Voldemort?- 8,371 replies

I feel like once they move into the PoA-GoF sets, the minifigures and characters per each set will be more compact and recognizable anyway. Just like the films, once they made PoA, that set the current and modern tone for the rest of the Harry Potter films.- 8,371 replies

Harry Potter 2018 - Rumors & Discussion
GryffindorResistance replied to Robert8's topic in LEGO Licensed
My main point is that they should be doing the main characters and known characters we havent got in a while in new and more interesting ways than they could do the last time they made Harry Potter sets. Obviously I know Cedric, Cho, Luna don't come to the later films but I'm just saying that in general, we should get main characters like that rather than characters that have no importance to the story whatsoever. Having Cedric, Cho, etc. in sets would fulfill everyone's main interest - getting new uniforms that they can reuse to make other characters, so why not do it that way, even if it means waiting a couple of months till the next wave? I have a lot of hope for these sets and think they'll be AMAZING.- 8,371 replies

But if we got Cedric, if everyone wanted Susan Bones so badly, couldn't they do the same thing? Just sayin- 8,371 replies

Completely agreed in the fact that they should make more Hufflepuffs, Ravenclaws, and Slytherins, do it with main characters - Cedric, Cho, Luna, Draco, etc.- 8,371 replies

I really hope though that if Lego is wasting pieces on characters that literally no one cares about (Susan Bones, Terrence Higgs??, etc.) we BETTER be getting EVERYONE eventually. What I mean is, theyre gonna put Susan Bones in the Great Hall, before someone like Neville Longbottom?- 8,371 replies

Whats actually insane is that by the end of the wave, if my calculations are correct, we'll be getting about 65 new Harry Potter figures Aragog - 2 Quidditch - at least 5 Knight Bus - at least 3 Newt's Briefcase - 3-4 Grindelwald's Escape - 2 Whomping Willow - 6 Great Hall - 10 Hogwarts Castle - at least 10 Minifigures - 22- 8,371 replies

I'm gonna wait until we see the official images to determine the leg printing and my final views on the figures. I think that some of the leaks are prelim designs and not final, like a lot of minifigure leaks are.- 8,371 replies

There's still a lot of things from the 1st/2nd films to touch upon, so I don't think they'll just never come back to those films in the future. Agreed, next wave will most likely be a good Prisoner/Goblet wave, being that those films have A LOT of set opportunities- 8,371 replies

My view is that Lego is just using the original films as a kickstart, then will progress forward with the films, while still adding things from the earlier ones. This is similar to the Harry Potter Funko Pops - they started with Sorcerer's Stone, then moved into Goblet/Order, and now this summer, they're doing Chamber of Secrets- 8,371 replies
