Haha I see the dilemma. I was going to say that Evanna reads her part in TTBB really well - her voice is really crisp and clear. I need to catch up on the celebrity audio of PS. Thanks for reminding me! I shall listen to it whilst building tomorrow. ?

Oh I enjoy it, but then it's like ... bother now I have to wait until next year. ? If you sign up for a free trial of Audible you can get Beedle free. I love the audio books too - what chapter were you interested in?

To be honest I don't care about the Hot Rod as such, but it seemed stupid not to wait a couple of minutes when I was spending over £85. I know it's so hard to stop yourself lol, especially at the moment when Lego is more therapeutic than ever. I keel trying to tell myself to slow down because this will be it for a while (until the D2C), but it's so hard not to rip everything open when you want to see the figures and the new prints and everything. I managed to just build Hedwig today (the wing motion is very cool) and did so whilst listening to Audible's free version of The Tales Of Beedle the Bard - it seemed very appropriate, although unexpectedly gory at one point. ?

Thank you. Ah okay. I went on the site at around 11.48 and saw they could be added to basket, but I waited a couple of minutes for it to add the Hot Rod. I never got an email to say anything would be delayed though so hopefully they will shop soon. :) Meanwhile I got my other sets from Amazon today so I have sets to build. ? But I've got ... to try ... and ... not ... build ... too ... quickly. ?

Nope ... And I ordered mine just after midnight. When did you order if you don't mind me asking? I ordered The Burrow and the Student Pack at about 3 minutes past midnight, but no shipping yet.

It's the movement that's made me buy it, because when I first saw the images I wasn't that impressed with the overall look, but seeing the wing motion made me just want to get it. It looks very therapeutic. I should be getting it later today. ?

Except Borgin and Burke's isn't underground.

I'm only one person obviously, but I received my Room Of Requirement set from Amazon UK today and I got the correct Hermione torso. I was dubious so I checked the bags as soon as I opened the box lol.

I gets the feeling that there is no other HP image in that catalogue. ? Now I just have an image of someone fanning that catalogue over his house of card and it collapsing. ?

Their latest reply in the comments to someone who says 'I still believe, or at least hope, that you are kind of genius' is 'Well, if everyone would watched even on the hashtags, that situation would never be happened.' They seem to be suggesting their hashtags meant something, but they are just the usual #legoharrypotter #legoleaks from what I can see, nothing to indicate anything. I'm really hoping we do see another set in the catalogue, not for nono's sake but just because, well, more HP Lego!

That must be a Disney 'push' surely? I'm sure for some people like yourself it means something and is very cool, but if you've never been to the park like myself and I'm sure a lot of others it means diddly squat. I just can't see Lego choosing to make this and using a set slot for this off their own back. Still, I'm glad that those who do know the source material think it's good set.

I also love how the Battle droid is no longer a 'Kashyyyk Battle Droid', but now an AAT Driver. At last the little guy got his driving license lol.

Yeah like I said, Obi-Wan comes out of that fight with a damn clean robe so it really is a cost cut to use the Mustafar version here. I was definitely expecting him to just have a 'clean' robe print. It was hinted that the clone in the ship wasn't Cody, but was new, but then I can't see anything particularly special about the 'new' Airborne Trooper. Grievous is also not tan as expected. All round a bit of a cop out.

It does feel kind of strange, like 'This is not the Palpatine duel you're looking for.' But then there had to be some OT in the wave I suppose and ROTJ hasn't been as nearly well covered as ANH or ESB in the last three years. There has been very little ROTJ since 2016 in fact. I think it would definitely make sense if it wasn't for the fact that most people would have expected it to be the Palpatine duel from ROS they would release this year if any.

There's a new Ahsoka and Ahsoka's Clone along with the 'Kashyyk' battle droid for the tank. And there's a new Death Star Final duel set. Plus a Resistance I-TS Transport. Oh and a stated by many, there is no Cody in Grievous' Starfighter just an Airborne Clone. Grievous also looks suspiciously white to me not tan as was suggested and Obi-Wan is also a reuse of Mustafar Obi-Wan which seems a bit unfair on old Obi considering he comes out of that fight with a squeaky clean robe. ?

Set images have leaked on IG!

The Burrow now says will ship by 10th June in the UK. ?

Oh no what a pain! I love it. ? He looks so much prettier. And the toes - too cute! Any way you can show the extra pieces you used? I'm sorry I don't know. You'd hope it really does mean 60 days or I think there will be a lot of annoyed people if they wait 60 days only to be told it's still not available.

I thought it prudent to stay up and order my Burrow set at just gone midnight as I thought that would be a poplar set anyway and then add in the fact it's an exclusive and it would be likely to go on backorder quickly. I also thought the backorder would be a little longer with the situation at the moment. But I'm so glad I stayed up as I woke up this morning and it's on backorder to ship in 60 days! I also got the student pack at the same time so I'm happy. :) Also, the advent calendar link that appeared on Amazon (as pointed out by He Who Shall Not Be Named) is still live, but it says Temporarily Out Of Stock, so 1st June obviously wasn't the release date.

Their sashes go the same way, it's just as @TheRandomBlocker says, the pink and orange is switched between twins.

It first came in a Lego Movie 2 set.

There is a piano at the Yule Ball though. It's not always easily seen and it' is 'frosty' but it could be representing that.

Just because the minifigures on the front of the box are Yule Ball themes doesn't rule out OOP Sirius surely? There are more than just three figures coming in the calendar and not all the characters in the last calendar were from the same movie or scene. Or am I missing something?

I'm in negative VIP points since they messed up a refund last time and express delivery is £21! I think I'll wait a few days.

Also the link to Amazon UK and the HP Advent Calendar with the supposed release date of 1st June still works, but I don't want to preorder what I can't see as there is no picture. Will be interesting to see if it does release in June 1st and at £24.99 because I thought the price was meant to be going up this year.
