  1. Oh that's good to know! Sorry if I missed any information but that does that mean the other sets which leaked alongside the disney ones will probably also be for 2024+
  2. Does this mean we can expect pics of the other sets soon? Or would Malificent and Snow White be released later in the year?
  3. I'm more worried about waiting for a discount aha I notice as a rule that the smallest JW sets get discounted first and I feel like its better to wait for good deals on the two large sets I want
  4. I think this theme is obviously super successful and has a lot of funding for prints and new pieces so the designers are diversifying to appeal to general Harry Potter fans as well as collectors Personally the only 2023 sets I’ll end up getting are the Second Task and Gringotts. The only 2022 set I feel like I have to catch up on is Grimmauld Place so I feel quite relieved I can have a bit of a budget for other themes as well 😅
  5. Do we think the hound could have a moulded head like the Avatar Thanatos? Or will it most likely be brick-built?
  6. As someone with no Hogsmede sets the Advent Calendar sounds great! Definitely not essential but I’ll be tempted just for some more civilians to populate Diagon Alley. That being said, the Omega figure in the Star Wars ac makes it much more enticing - hp needs to spread some of the chase figures around a bit more imo
  7. My Flickr account: https://www.flickr.com/people/legofantasticalfigures/

    I'm currently in the process of uploading all my instagram photos on there, as well as organising my photostream a bit more. 

  8. I’ve had a thought - if Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes is a regular system set we will see it well before Gringotts. I can’t remember if WWW is set for a June or August release but it will be interesting to see how different or similar it is to the existing layout
  9. So do you feel like Gringotts will be on a baseplate to fit with the first Diagon Alley or could it maybe have a slightly different foundation to fit with the new WWW and incorporate underground vaults? with 3 different diagon alley sets since 2019 at least two of them should look good together aha
  10. Also remember when there were all those random riddles about sets or characters we’d get? That was so random Thank you everyone for being so explicit and direct with your information, it’s very helpful It is very odd no one from Instagram is covering this, I’m pretty sure some of the big names do check here for information sometimes but maybe no one else can verify this info yet?
  11. Gringotts is a lot taller than the other shops and it should be more 3d like WWW but even deeper, with the road continuing on each side - that being said I don’t see how it can include a similar amount to the other diagon alley set
  12. I’d think so too but I think Promobricks released a description with no sidebuilds except for the tracks and vaults
  13. Fantastic, thank you! That's so weird that there will be two versions of WWW and the Hogwarts Express at the same time! We're really entering the age of remakes for Harry Potter
  14. Thank you! Yeah I’m not interested in that but it is nice that there will be a diagon alley set which is going to be available at an easier price point for people I can definitely see this being a Hogsmede deal where borgin and burkes is next year
  15. I don’t want to be demanding or anything but with how much you’ve said you might as well say which shop it is mate - don’t even use the name just post a pic of the shop in the films so we won’t have to needlessly speculate aha
  16. Definitely only the WWW and Ollivanders could stand alone as a set - Ollivanders could be a bit bigger or have exploding functions at this new price point Or maybe borgin and burkes and it’s a remake of that small da sidebuild
  17. On Instagram there’s a pic of a clone with grey details that someone is saying is new. Personally I’m unsure - it could be parts from the at te gunner or custom prints. It has a grey visor
  18. This swamp speeder set intrigues me! To manage expectations, what would be the worst minifigure selection it could come with? IMO a kashykk clone trooper and an assortment of battle droids would be the most boring option for me. Thank god the Yoda star fighter means he shouldn’t be included in this set
  19. Honestly the two focuses for Lego sw at the moment seem to be Mandalorian-era stuff and more adult oriented OT sets, both of which make sense when Mandalorian is so popular with the main target age group. I’d say clone wars sets are the third biggest group, hence why we’ve been lucky enough to receive so many clone variants. thank goodness there are also one-off sets for Kenobi, Andor, bad batch, book of boba Fett and other tie-ins as well. At least Star Wars isn’t like marvel where Disney+ series are almost completely ignored
  20. Not to start a film debate but I love all three sequels films and would welcome more sets, especially play sets with updated figures. And I grew up with the prequels but only really want more clone troopers - there’s no set from the prequels that I really want anymore (the 2013 gunship was the high point for me) I was actually quite disappointed when I saw the other week that the set was discontinued. Hopefully at least the Armourer will be included in another set down the line
  21. The more I look at brachiosaurus pics the more I like it - I know it’s not plausible but I want to pose it with the Giganotosaurus- they’ll be the two biggest dinosaurs of the 2012- line and Giga was potentially a sauropod hunter
  22. Well after a lot of thought and looking at all the pictures I’m definitely getting the visitor centre and brachiosaurus sets. I love the first film too much to not get the iconic visitor centre plus the T Rex is one of the best printed ones they’ve made - I love the eye printing especially. And a Lego brachiosaurus is something I just can’t not get, despite the limited movement. It’ll be good to balance out my array of therapod carnivores with another herbivore. That being said I’ll definitely wait for a hefty discount, Black Friday or something. I managed to get the Giga set for just under a hundred quid last year and I’m sure the visitor centre will be pulled down to that level eventually
  23. That would be great news if so! Sorry, I’ve forgotten: did we have any indication for the price or amount of pieces these sets will have?
  24. So this might be obvious but the 4+ set will have only one raptor and the T-Rex one will have another? That does kinda make sense as I always thought of them as a pair in the film. I wonder then if they will have identical printing or slightly different changes between them. I think the closest comparison might be the the Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom wave where the same Blue figure was included in two sets. Also I hope the T-Rex doesn't have the lip printing they have been using for Rexes in the last few years - it's a personal preference but I feel that it sticks out too much.
  25. The princesses, the evil queen and dr facilier are my favourites! Can’t wait to put these new ones next to my season 2 figures - in the past I got Hercules, Hades, Elsa, Anna and Jafar
