I mean at least we got a version of Neville

Interesting that it’s mark 8 in the Avengers Tower, considering it was destroyed before that. It’s nice that they’re realizing we want new Iron Man suits but I don’t get why they gave us a brand new suit but made it only a partial suit. Takes away a lot of appeal.

I’m excited for next year’s wave because they can’t possibly make sets from 5-6 without finally giving us a Ginny minifig

Gotcha, thanks I don’t know anything about it

So is the Tantive IV not being revealed today after all? I’ve seen nothing yet

I bought one from Walmart, and I’ve seen a bunch there. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen them at Barnes and Noble as well but I don’t remember for certain on that one

I’m pretty sure I remember the Quidditch minifigs leaking very early last year. Also, that set wasn’t exclusive in the US, I saw it all over the place here, I still do.

Wouldn’t it be awesome if there was another mystery set this year? I don’t think there will be, but I would be very happy if there was. The more Potter the better

Will there be a May 4th polybag? I’m not really sure, they seem to be doing things a little differently this year

It’s like I was just saying. It’s a good looking set but much smaller than I wanted it to be. 100% should have made it a UCS set and made it bigger. If this is $200 I’ll be frustrated

And if we’re talking about magical creatures that are far too dark for the likes of children, the dementors are FAR darker than the Inferi. There’s going to be a set completely focused on a scene where a dark creature whose very presence causes absolute despair, attempts to suck the soul of a man out of his mouth. So reanimated corpses is not outside the realm of possibility

I don’t think anyone can say for sure that Cedric won’t be included. He wasn’t last time around but that means very little. He likely won’t be in it but we can’t say for certain that “he is not in the set”. Unless you have inside information?

Since the rumors, I was thinking this set would be as big as the original, but now I’m think it’s more the size of the more recent version. I’m talking size not piece count. I’d love a nice big Tantive IV. I’m sure it’ll be fantastic, I’m just really hoping it lives up to the hype. A May 4th set not being UCS is very odd. Then again, Lego has been trying to mix things up with several themes this year so who knows what they’re trying to do

I think they’ll carry on with the labels, they created the MBS just last year for that very reason. But regardless, my point isn’t that it should be labeled one thing or another, but that maybe it just isn’t the set we’re all expecting it to be, which is a modern remake of the original UCS blockade runner. If it isn’t UCS or MBS, then isnit just another 20th Anniversary set? If it isn’t UCS then maybe the piece count and price range isn’t high enough to warrant that stamp, I’m just hoping we’re not all sorely disappointed

Wow that’s unexpected. So is it still a D2C? The piece count makes it the right size for UCS. I wonder why they aren’t labeling it as such. And is this set in the place of a UCS May 4th set it are we getting a UCS as well? So many questions, I know, but it’s a very curious circumstance

Non-UCS? The May 4th D2C is always UCS

I know, I can’t believe Owen got an actual Chris Pratt face and Starlord didn’t

You’re right, my bad, I merely glanced at it the first time. Guess I’m just used to them being switched in all the leaks

Krum’s and Cedric’s faces are switched in that picture. But either way, there’s no facial hair and it’s still unrealistic. No idea why they went with that choice

I’m pretty sure he was only talking about the June wave

Last year, the Great Hall and the FB carriage were revealed very early but we did eventually see some leaked images from them as well. I do remember several minifigs leaking from the other sets way before the reveal though. All four minifigs from the FB Suitcase set leaked. Snape, Harry and Ron From Aragog’s lair, Filch, all the Quidditch minifigs, even Ollivander from the promotional Diagon Alley set leaked very early, as well as (surprising as it is) the CMF Voldemort. Nothing from the Express leaked I don’t think, unless you count the exact same variations of Harry and Ron from the Aragog set. The Bricktober pack also leaked early. I’m pretty sure that’s it.

I’ve been keeping an eye out at Walmart, I haven’t seen it yet, but I’m hoping it pops up near me soon

Same. That hair piece worked perfectly, it’s really the only change needed to this figure in my opinion

I think Ron looks perfectly fine. Recognizable enough, as far as Lego faces go. I’m really excited about those tan medium legs. If they really do belong to Harry and not Ron, I’ll be using one out of the two or three identical Harry’s we’re getting to replace Hermione’s tan short legs from the Express with medium ones. The dark gray ones are nice too though, both are very useful

But that part is already in production for that figure in that color. They just use the extras that don’t get printed for the build a minifig tables
