TheRandomBlocker replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
That is worrisome because that’s the only set I can afford straight away (and the student pack ofc) ugh ?? -

Where’s the video? I’m actually intrigued as to what it looks like -

Sorry, I’ve only just seen this, I do not know unfortunately, I’m one of the ones who is self isolating so I can’t access the work computers, I would love for it to be exclusive to Argos in the UK because then I can get it with discount lmao, hopefully they’ll be up at 12 tonight so I’ll keep my eye out ☺️ -

I don’t think that’s pathetic, pathetic is queuing up for hours on end to get a video game that is the same thing 10x over *cough* Fifa -

Ah, that makes sense, I bought mine from the Lego Store in London last year so I didn’t need to keep an eye on the website lmao ? -

They definitely weren’t on the site early the first year as I kept checking myself, can’t speak for last year, but the first year they weren’t Ah, damn, you got me ?? -

Because they don’t have them for pre-order so they don’t have them on the site, the Lego sets are only ever available on the website upon day of release, they’re available on the in-store computers for staff, but not on the public website, it’s only ever a glitch if they appear before release date, last year was the same and the year before was the same (I have friends in the company, hence how I managed to get the job there after being fired from my previous job) On the UK site below the price on the set’s actual page it says the specific date, don’t know if it’s the same for you? -

That’s because of the virus, we’re not a warehouse like some, we’re actual stores oops, may have said too much about where I work ??♂️ -

If it involves different people then it shouldn’t matter ?, you can always ignore it ?? -

There are no leaks to discuss rn, even if a discussion goes nowhere it’s still fun to discuss things that may or may not happen ??♂️ -

The thing is, the modulars would be D2C so it wouldn’t replace the Hogwarts parts, it would only replace the D2Cs whatever they are in the future -
Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion

I personally would rather them be modular, so £150 for a single building, but have them release several buildings over the years, I mean imagine a £150 Gringotts or WWW ?? -

Last year I was here to clarify fake and real rumours, unfortunately I am not able to do so this year as I’m in the same boat as y’all and know literally nothing, shame there’s no one here willing to do it, but also probably for the best -

TheRandomBlocker replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Unfortunately I think you’re actually right, the more that things like this are discussed if they are fake it gives them a sense of big headedness because they’ve got people talking -
Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion
TheRandomBlocker replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
For a lot of people, myself included, knowing in advance what comes in a set increases how much I want to get the sets because it helps to build my hype for seeing new figures and knowing what is coming up -
Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion
TheRandomBlocker replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
I think they were probably thinking about it, but they wanted to see if FB 1 did well or not, if it didn’t and HP didn’t really come back it would’ve been a wasted theme, they probably saw how popular FB was and immediately started up designing new sets, I think that’s why we only got 2 FB because they were still very wary -
Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion
TheRandomBlocker replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
I’m not doubting that, but if you look at the people that were kids when Harry Potter first came out (myself for example) we are now old enough to be buying the sets and things ourselves, so I definitely think that helps, especially with the lack of popularity of FB, or at least FB 2 (I love both of them ?) -
Harry Potter 2020 - Rumors & Discussion
TheRandomBlocker replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
Whilst I do believe that FB is the reason they have redone the HP theme, I don’t think FB is keeping it relevant, I think Harry Potter is doing that all itself, I mean there are more Harry Potter toys out now than I have ever seen in my 22 years of life, there’s the “Harry Potter at Home” reads on Spotify, there has been 1 wave with no FB sets and another this year, HP has enough to go for years without FB ☺️ -

Whilst this is truer than true, I also don’t think Lego is going to stop once they’ve done DH, I definitely see this going for longer and they could revisit sets that haven’t been done in the following years too ☺️ -

Yeah, it’s still happening, people are expecting something official around mid-June -

True that, any Lego HP (of a reasonable price) is good Lego HP ?? -

There’s no need to apologise, I would much rather people be skeptical than just blindly follow others, that way if it does all turn out to be fake or educated guesses then no one gets upset/disappointed and the only person affected is the fake leaker who loses all credibility ☺️ -

TheRandomBlocker replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
I was one of the first to comment on the post when we saw the leaked image and that was 23hrs ago, I think his lack of response to any message has proved that he was BSing us at the least and have very lucky educated guesses at the rest of the stuff I’ve kept myself skeptical since being back on this forum, but this has definitely made me not trust him, why would he not respond to all these people calling him out with an explanation? -

Technically the only person who doesn’t hold the broom in one hand whilst riding is Moody, even when playing Quidditch they all have one hand on the broom and one hand either free for the bludger/snitch or one hand on their beater bat, I don’t think it would make much sense to have a hip piece for the brooms, they work pretty well as they are ☺️
