  1. Thanks. Found the instructions on Lego site too yay. Refusing to look at pics but so hard!
  2. Does anyone know if a white baseplate is ok to use? Or does it have to be green?? Thanks in advance
  3. Now I’m getting even more excited having watched that little video. I have decided to erase all knowledge of DA from my mind and go with the flow like Lego had intended. ? better go buy me a big baseplate ? Ooh I’m excited ?
  4. Not sure if this has been already asked so apologies if it has but how does everyone else store their WV sets? For the past couple years I’ve kept most of them made up and carefully placed in a big plastic storage box together. But was thinking of storing them separately in shoe boxes or something similar. Grateful for any suggestions. Thanks ?
  5. I’m actually excited by this idea. Kinda wished it hadn’t leaked and just imagine if no one knew anything about a DA Lego set coming. Right now everyone would be freaking at that little bit of advertisement
  6. Isn’t it Quality Quidditch on one side and Supplies on the other? If u look at the drawing I posted it’s identical to the first film in that respect. It’s the top windows that are different. They should be lower and another set of windows above them. Hope this helps ?
  7. Thanks. Wasn’t sure if to post it or not as didn’t want to step on toes or anything. Shame I couldn’t find who had done it but it looks spitting image of the still frame I found in first film Including the hanging sign by the door
  8. I found this picture which I thought looked identical to the first film depiction of QQS. I have no idea where it came from or who did it though. Just thought I would have a go at trying to upload my first ever picture so be kind ?
  9. I think it depends on the look your going for - a normal wall or the moment it starts opening up? If it’s a normal wall I think it needs a couple of the ‘brick’ style bricks swapping around as too me it looks too uniform still. Maybe try 3 of the ‘brick’ bricks together in a triangle? When people draw walls they tend to draw a few random bricks instead of each and everyone of them so you might find some inspiration there? Sorry if this is useless information and that is just my opinion so you can just ignore me if that’s the case ?
  10. ? I must have dreamt it ? waiting on Lego reveals can do that do a crazy person ? Oh I know why I’m going back to the year before when it was the fire brigade set forgot we had the gingerbread house last year. Time is zooming so fast I can’t keep up with it!
  11. ? asked other half and he knows what you are on about. So nice having people help out ? thank you ?
  12. Oh I thought it was the 9th? I remember finding it funny that it was announced at 9am on the 9th day on the 9th month - 999 ? I definitely remember everyone questioning how odd it was to be on a Sunday. I’m really excited for something to happen, anything!! ?. But yeah I think the HP fans will start imploding soon if they don’t get a proper reveal, they’ve waited long enough
  13. Thank you. Not a clue what that means ? but I’m really grateful and I’m sure the other half will ?
  14. U legend! Thank you ? I’m going to cry channel 4 have blocked it. Tried YouTube and even channel 4 website to no avail ? Does anyone in the UK know how to get The Secret World of Lego to play?
  15. Can anyone help. Been making the Hogwarts castle with my son (his head keeps exploding with how amazing it is ?) and I’m sure the designer Justin Ramsden was in a Lego documentary about how he got a job there. Does anyone have any idea what it was called or how to try find out what it was called? Hoping to show it to him if at all possible. Any help greatly appreciated please please please with a Lego cherry on top
  16. That’s ok ? I was just merely curious as to why the designer did that. Anyone whose read my posts will know yes I personally am disappointed with the design because I had read the books the day they were released giving me a few years to imagine my own version of DA (I recently brought Jim Kays versions for my son and felt like the illustrator had a key to my imagination) But as I said already u can never please everyone and I’m really glad so many do love it. Best thing about Lego... you can make it your own ?
  17. The pictures and film bit I looked at was from the first film? Harry’s first time in DA? The upstairs windows are practically sitting on top of the roof of the downstairs windows??? I could be completely wrong I usually am ?
  18. So any thoughts as to why the Designer chose to make the QQS’ upstairs windows high? I was having a nosey at pictures and still frames of the shop and they show the windows to be low. Just a random thought that popped into my head
  19. I think for me to buy it I would want a tall slim add on owl emporium with lots of bird cages hanging all over the facade of the building and another building that again just gives that busy feel that I personally think DA has even without any people there. Also have they added something to the broomsticks? They look chunky in the middle?
  20. Scandalous I think I actually wouldn’t mind an elf club house. I could do with some more elves seeing as my winter village is set in the North Pole ?
  21. Yea I used the back of the box this morning to get better idea of what it would look like but to me it still doesn’t feel crazy enough I guess if that makes sense. I’m sure a lot of fans definitely prefer it to be screen authentic and I get that but for me as it stands at the moment it’s a bit moo and not enough platipus
  22. So far I’m some what disappointed. It just seems more like a beautiful muggle shopping street and not the crazy overpacked and wackyness of what in my opinion is DA. I’m not fussed by the minifigures, I like architecture and character of buildings. Obviously you well and truly can’t please everyone and I may change my mind after seeing how fans display and modify it. Maybe Lego has got bigger plans and I will come to desperately want to buy it with all the add ons (if they make them). Only time will tell
  23. I think female reindeers have antlers too?
  24. Fred and George would definitely be taking bets by now on what day it’s going to be revealed. I’m going with this Tuesday, anyone else ?
  25. I would love an elf in a reindeer costume!
