Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion
Balrogofmorgoth replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Lol patience. This is the worst part, the waiting right before we think it’ll happen. -

That’s probably the likeliest scenario. If we get it, it’ll be from that scene. There could easily be a smaller set with Harry, Hagrid, and any of the Death Eaters or Order members in that scene. And of course...Hedwig -

That’s a bummer -

I sure hope so I wish kingnono would drop one more big hint before the reveal just to give us something else to think about -

I know, a part of me really thought it would be today because of yesterday's polybag reveal -

Then only stickers I’ve had peel around the edges are the ones from the Clone Wars Republic Attack Gunship. But that may be because after being displayed for a while it was partially dismantled and shoved unceremoniously into a small bin with a bunch of other older sets. Whoops. -

Yeah I don’t have any owls from any other themes or any previous renditions of the HP theme, so these are all I have right now. Here’s hoping for more owls! -

I’m already planning on putting all my owls on the Privet Drive set (I have several from the Cho CMFs and tons of Hedwigs). I’m hoping it comes with more to add variety -

That sticker sheet is really neat! I never minded stickers all that much honestly. Of course I get pissed when I accidentally apply a sticker crooked or something but that’s to be expected. Not sure how I feel about the cluttered mail slot on the outside of the door, like other people have mentioned. I’m sure I’ll get used to it. Love all the detail though -

Apologies if this has been said, I didn’t read through all the replies after the polybag was revealed. I feel like the hollow white stud included in the polybag could possibly be to let Hedwig carry the broom by the end? It’s not really accurate to how she carried it, but maybe it’s just Lego’s solution for a cheap polybag. I don’t think that stud really makes sense otherwise, it’s just kinda there -

I’d say if you haven’t already been collecting UCS, maybe don’t get the A-Wing and save for the Razor Crest and the AT-AT. I have every UCS set since 2010ish so I can’t possibly skip it (not that I would want to). This will look great with all the other Alliance fighters but without any others it may end up looking a bit bland on display comparatively -

Agreed, I really hope we get more owls that aren’t Hedwig, sitting ones and flying ones -

Hopefully this reveal means more reveals are coming very soon. This was like a little tease -

It’s a very nice little polybag, I really like that this new Hedwig will be that easy to get. That being said, I would have preferred literally any other minifigure, even any other variant of Harry. But whatever, it’s still a cool polybag -

Probably. The unfortunate thing is it seems to be working pretty well for them. I wouldn’t be surprised to see it happen again. -

Balrogofmorgoth replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Well they were officially revealed on April 25 last year so it should be this week or next week if that’s anything to go by. I think they released in June last year too, except for in the US where it was August I think, maybe July. All I remember was we had to wait a lot longer than everyone else. I hope that doesn’t happen this time -

It would be pretty cool if one of the Advent Calendar mini builds is a baby Thestral. I always prefer molded but a little brick built baby Thestral would be a perfect Advent Calendar build -

Honestly, Rey’s face could probably work for Hermione from the later films. It’s awful for Lavender though. I’m really hoping the reason they used the Friends hairpiece is because she has a bow attachment. Hopefully a cloth skirt as well. With those two things, she wouldn’t be so bad. I really wish Ron had dual molded arms and it’s not like we can replace them like someone else said -

I think Lavender is a figure that only could have been done well as a CMF. -

Balrogofmorgoth replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
I believe it’s from the Friends theme. She really needed a new hairpiece though -

I agree, Lavender is really disappointing. Ron is ok, he needed dual molded arms though -

You’re exactly right, but like @MaxHeadroom said, he was clear that his predictions were only predictions from before he actually knew anything about the sets. I wouldn’t take the specifics of his predictions to mean anything, he even said it didn’t all come true. He confirmed a handful of figures but name, and a few extras were included when he circled figures in the book so I would take those as confirmed
