Jaromir

I wasn't expecting Hogwart's portraits in this set, but it seems there is at least one of them in the set.

I think Charlie has Corban Yaxley recoloured hairpiece.

Thanks for the info @Micmac. I am not sure but ground floor of the Burrow looks smaller to me than the 75980 Burrow. Looks like there is only kitchen there and the chimney, no living room.

Where? :O

Ohhh, come on Lego, make my day and officially reveal the Burrow today. The Burrow looks decent on the photo, I prefer having smaller objects to be a D2C, so they can be very detailed and in minifigure scale. Also, it gives a lot of possibilities for having much more locations. Would love to see Grimmuald Place with whole order of Phoenix as a D2C.

I am curious how Lego will deal with another segments of Hogwarts Castle and fillers. We got the Hufflepuff common room and it would not make sense if we are not getting other houses common rooms. Also, they should be about the same size to maintain the some kind of proportions. For sure other classrooms would also be released in same manner, more or less. How about iconic locations? Dumbledores and Umbridge offices, room of requirements, chamber of secrets, hospital wing. Do you think they will be done for this edition of the castle?

Maybe the price of Hagrid's bike has been mistaken with the Charm Classroom?

So is there any specific way of how to assembly all of the FF parts?

I just build my Aragog sets, and I am little bit angry with the fact, that small build of the forbidden forest, actually got the connectors other way around it supposed to have. If connect all the pieces together in the straight line, I will see the back of the forest on this small pieces.

If we get a big set that is part of the castle, I hope it will be section that connects to the Great Hall. I don't want to end up with Lego making Hogwarts castle completed in year three by releasing the middle section of the castle that connects to border parts of the recent years.

Usually, winter wave sets are much cheaper than summer sets, would not expect anything big. Some classrooms, maybe another stand alone building, whomping willow, another part of forbidden forest.

Few weeks ago I have visited Lego store in Poland, and had a little chat with a lady that works there, about Harry Potter Theme. Interesting thing is that she said there will be more Lego Harry Potter sets coming this year, apart of advent calendar and the Burrow set. I said to her that I don't think so, since I would probably already know about this, but she said she knows woman who also works for LEGO and got those information. Still don't believe this.

This year march releases have been officially revealed around December 2023.

Got the same feeling while building Hagrid's Hut. You should get Boat House set, it is very well done for such a small set, and has 5 random animals included.

Do those two build the most detailed Hogwarts castle outlines look much different from each other, or I am wrong?

There was a leak of the D2C Burrow set description, again on polish website. It states that: The set will be over 50cm high. Burrow will be can be split in half vertically and it can be folded so two halves will make set closed. In front of the Burrow, there will be small garden and on the side a small farm with 2 pigs. On the ground floor we will find kitchen with big table and family clock, and living room with fireplace. On upper floors we will get rooms of Ron, Arthur and Molly, Fred and George, Ginny, and also small Percy's room, toilet and bathroom. Leak says there will be 10 minifigures but it lists only Ron, Ginny, Arthur, Molly, Fred, George and Percy, I am not sure if they treat pigs and owl (Errol) as a minifigures. Also they say that no stickers included, only prints.

The burrow from 2020 was a great set, very detailed for 1000 pieces and we can say it is almost right size for minifigure scale. I think with D2C burrow which will be around 2500 pieces, it will be proper minifigure scale. Hopefully, we will have whole Weasley family, with William, Charles and Percy.

I hope that GWP will not be a part of Hogwarts, that connects to it. Would love to collect whole Hogwarts Castle, but I don't want to spent fortune for GWP, or buy the D2C for the whole price from Lego store. :(

Soooo, is it only Burrow D2C set left for official reveal this year?

Wow, love the fact that building are modular and can be easily disassembled. I am just thinking if we get more classrooms and all of the Hogwarts dormitory. The divination class was at the top of the tower if I am correct, so the Ravenclaw dormitory.

Interesting point of view. If proportions of the blurred image of Hogwarts castle are true, the Great Hall won't be the biggest set, comparing to the the big tower. Or maybe other castle segments will be combined from different sets, like rocky base plus ground flour will be one set, first floor and top floor will be other set.

Reviews of Great Hall and the Arrival are up on YT SwiftBricks channel.

OK, I thought that Great Hall won't be that deep, and the tables are 1 stud wide. Nice surprise.

I am definitely convinced to start collecting the Hogwarts Castle. Can't wait to see how it looks with advent calendar.

Well, can't wait till tomorrow then :).
