Probably because it's supposed to be more of a standalone set that fits in anywhere, similar to last years Room of Requirement.

That wasn't an actual statement, just the time LEGO generally allows fan media to do their product reveals and announcements.

$60.

Yep

They do.

Nearly always around 3PM CEST from what I recall so around 2 hours from now.

No. But anything that's in the book and not in the movie was technically cut.

Yep, that's the name of the suit.

There isn't. It's just Fluffy's room, the Devil's Snare and a turret with what might be a reference to Snape's Potions challange that ended up being cut from the film. I don't think people hating the lack studs is necessarily related to the aesthetic of the set, at least not for me personally. The lack of studs is hated on because the builds for the chess pieces look like they'll fall over very easily, making the set hard to use for actual chess matches and for display. Including 1 stud on every square would've been a super easy fix to such a vital problem.

There are hinges at the top of the Bathroom build and the official 2021 Hogwarts configuration shows the Bathroom (and to be even more specific: the sink) right above the room filled with bones and a slide.

Definitely looks like a brand new figure to me but that said it's not really anything to write home about.

If someone posts a picture with Panda's watermark that Panda hasn't posted on his own account it's safe to assume it's fake.

I know, that's why it bothered me. But seeing as there are scenes in which he doesn't wear one I can forgive the exclusion of a cape in the set.

I'll confirm that, from what I know there are no new species coming out this year.

It bothered me as well but looking for the outfit in question I realized it's actually accurate: Sorry for the blurry picture but it's the only one I could find

If everyone's doing it I guess I'll share my ranking as well 8) Chess 7) H&H 6) Fawkes 5) Fluffy 4) Girl's Bathroom 3) Flying Lesson 2) Hogsmeade 1) Chamber of Secrets

I would much rather see an actual remake of the Great Devourer than some kind of mechanical contraption/display.

A lot of people are still under the impression that this is the case but it really isn't, in fact we have absolutely no idea whatsoever what the Accessory Pack will include.

D2C's rarely, if ever, leak alongside normal sets.

Well at least one of the new Hogwarts sets has a good exterior Figures are decent and I love the new Remembrall print, also like the 4 House flags. I'll definitely pick this up! Also worth noting: NO HARRY!!!

To get back to the chess set for a bit there's just so many things wrong with it that I'm really wondering what the designer for this set was smoking. - Squares aren't square as they use 2 2x3's (I counted the studs) - No studs on the squares to hold the chess pieces - Chess pieces look like they'll fall over instantly - Chess pieces are not to scale with the source material - Chess pieces do not resemble the source material - Ron doesn't seem to be able to ride the horse piece So much wasted potential.

Fawkes leaked as well. Yet another set that looks great but just doesn't grab my interest.

Chess is another set that looks decent I guess but I'll never get it. The builds for the pieces don't do it for me and the lack of studs on the board is questionable as a lot of those pieces look like they'll fall over as soon as you touch them.

I wouldn't mind seeing Marvel get sets like these as a seperate type of display product but not as part of a playset, in that case I would much rather get something similar to Arishem.

I'm not sure if this is correct but some sets from the August wave might get an early June release in Europe. Take that with an absolutely huge grain of salt though because I have no clue how accurate that is.
