Frozen is one of my favorite Disney movies so I was really excited for this set. The build, although it uses too much white, looks fantastic but as a massive fan of minifigures those minidolls are a dealbreaker for me. Why is this a minidoll set? There are already like 3 or 4 minidoll-iterations of the castle (one of which is coming out this year), throw us minifig fans a bone! Pretty sure it's a Snowgie.

I'd love that to be a set with a large Leviathan build to make up for that sad little thing we got in 2019.

I'm keeping an eye on leaks all week and as soon as I go to work all hell breaks loose Love the boxart and from what I can see the sets look great, not that there's much to see anyway as these pictures have been taken with a potato. There are some disappointing things I think I've seen but I'll hold off on those until proper HD pictures are out.

Marvel released some new character posters for Black Widow, giving us our best look at the costumes for some of these characters. Melina's outfit seems to be exactly the same as Nat's so it'll be very easy to make/update a custom figure of her (personally using the Enix torso atm).

A ton of retailers put their listings up around 1-2 weeks ago, just no pictures yet.

Highly doubt we'll get anything from LEGO today so Must Haves is our last hope, otherwise it should be tomorrow.

It does seem likely but that's assuming LEGO has kept these sets a secret this long so they can do a reveal. If they don't do a reveal, which would be rather strange, we probably won't see them today.

The embargo on the setpics lifts on tuesday so that's when retailers can start uploading them to their webshops. Considering Friends is rumored to be revealed on tuesday the Marvel reveal should be tomorrow, assuming that there will be a reveal in the first place. Either way we should get pics by tuesday at the latest.

Trust me, he gets enough love as one of my favorite characters I did think it might be him but considering there is no canon material pointing to Snape getting a Chocolate Frog Card (that I know of) and him not being a particularly famous or high-status wizard/witch like Flamel, Maxime or Picquery I just thought it's more likely to be someone else

The good thing about the minimalistic design of these cards is that you can really interpret and use them however you want. I personally care much more about the books than the movies so while I love Gambon's portrayal of Dumbledore all I care about is Harris, the design makes it very easy to use the potential Gambon Dumbledore as Merlin (or someone else entirely). I do hope LEGO releases an official list with names though.

All 16 Chocolate Frog Cards have now been leaked: 1. Godric Gryffindor 2. Salazar Slytherin 3. Rowena Ravenclaw 4. Helga Hufflepuff 5. Albus Dumbledore 6. Minerva McGonagall 7. Garrick Ollivander 8. Merlin 9. Bertie Botts 10. Olympe Maxime 11. Seraphina Picquery 12. Gilderoy Lockhart 13. Nicholas Flamel 14. Jocunda Sykes 15. Newt Scamander? 16. No idea who this is

I don't particularly like it but it's far from terrible.

The trio could still happen though. All three of them received their Chocolate Frog Cards after the Battle of Hogwarts just like McGonagall, who is represented on one of the leaked cards.

First tease is out:

So right now we have: 1. Albus Dumbledore 2. Minerva McGonagall 3. Garrick Ollivander 4. Godric Gryffindor 5. Salazar Slytherin 6. Rowena Ravenclaw 7. Possibly Bertie Botts 8. Possibly Merlin, though he does resemble Vitruvius from The LEGO Movie (which is also a WB property) With 3/4 Founders already appearing we can safely assume Helga is among the remaining 8 cards. I hope the rest are as relatively unknown as Bertie Botts and Merlin(?), the last thing I want is Chocolate Frog Cards for the trio.

These look great!

Fingers crossed they're as good as that Hengist of Woodcroft statue

Really hope this comes with a figure of Anne Hathaway's Catwoman

I don't care much about the mortar trooper but he looks really nice, Greef is just amazing. I'm really glad they gave him legprinting as the S1 figure felt rather plain, that head is just perfection!

Wouldn't be the first time a character of his is made into LEGO form though (Maui).

Doesn't the fact they never change their approach say enough about the sets' sales? These concepts may be fairly poorly received on forums like Eurobricks but take in mind we are but a tiny fraction of LEGO's entire customer base.

Thor's main faceprint leaked, gotta say I'm not a big fan. It looks really cartoony.

Wow these figures all look amazing! Really the only minor gripe I have is that they opted to go with Crosshairs Imperial armor, I would've personally preferred the standard BB design. The Havoc Marauder itself looks great, though the cockpit is a bit too curvy for my taste. Green speeder is a nice inclusion and looks good but I absolutely hate the BARC. In one of the Bad Batch episodes of TCW Wrecker was weightlifting a GONK

It's definitely the 11th at the latest, I'm confident. LEGO themselves.
