LDD only did the Clocktower though, not the other sets

Turns out apparently I’d blocked them ?, don’t know when or why, but unblocked and following now

Interesting, tells me the account doesn’t exist ??

Ah, nice, do you know whose page it was? I wouldn’t mind dropping them a follow

That looks pretty accurate to what I saw and what LDD mocced up, yeah Whilst I appreciate the sentiment, people have doubts, and if you don’t doubt then you may end up being disappointed, but I am glad that you all like the look of the sets, if you don’t mind me asking, where did you see the sketches?

I sent it over to my colleague whose main job was to take down notes for the builds of the sets and he said it’s pretty accurate, however he did say that he’s not sure whether the Clocktower is coming out in June or August now because “changes need to be made”, but I’m not sure, my job was figures and moulds luckily ?

It’s modelled on PoA onwards, but it’s open backed, like Hogwarts, so there’s no opening mechanism ?, and they are connected like most Lego, with bricks ??, joking aside, it’s genuinely just built up

No problem at all, I’m happy to help and be of service ?

Hmmm, odd, and I can indeed Hagrid's hut Includes Hagrid, Harry, Hermione, Ron, Macnair, Minister and a Moulded Buckbeak

Every figure there was a placeholder unfortunately ?

I would LOVE that, mainly because then I can stop worrying that they might have changed lots in the sets, haha, I think once the set images are released we can all relax because then we’ll know exactly who is coming and what the sets look like, the ones that I am most confident with are the Hut and First Task sets because they were the most interesting ones to me so I remember them really well, haha, however the others I don’t remember TOO much about, which is annoying

They definitely are, especially in PoA, the scene where they hide behind them just shows how big (literally and figuratively) they are

We absolutely should, we need to get Professor Sprout and I’d rather get her in a set than a CMF, plus we need somewhere for CMF Neville It was empty unfortunately, I can tell that something was supposed to be there, but it wasn’t finished and I’m presuming they didn’t want to just fill it with rubbish, kinda like Hagrid’s Hut, that was empty inside too That’s no problem at all, and it had a small garden, well I assume it was a garden, it’s where the garden should be on the set, but it was just a brown plate at the time, no pumpkins or anything, but no doubt it will come with some, there were no trees unfortunately, but they had images up of the Hut from the films and it shows the scene from PoA where Harry and Hermione are observing and MacNair cuts the pumpkin, so that tells me we’ll get pumpkins

Yeah, that sounds about right

Not a side build like the Willow, a side build as in attached to the side of the tower, sorry, should’ve worded it better The tower didn’t have many at all from what I can remember, very much like the Gryffindor tower, the other part had a window either side of the doors

It’s basically like the bridge part of the Willow set that is attached to Snape’s office, like I said, there are doors, not dissimilar to the ones in the Great Hall set, the outside is pretty much a rampart, but the inside of that was empty like Hagrid’s hut

The dragon took up most of the pieces but then it was VERY similar to the Thor Ragnarok set with Gladiator Hulk, also similar to the original Horntail set

Yeah, no problem, it’s pretty much like the Gryffindor tower, plain curvature with a few stickers, just remembered now that there is a small side build, and iirc that was where we get the “Clocktower” part of the set, it’s got the clock on it, with doors below it, I didn’t see behind the doors, however that could house the pendulum, but I didn’t see much of that part of the build unfortunately

Twas unfortunately a prelim figure, so not sure if new mould, but it won’t be Woody arms/legs as they have been retired since the last TS sets (new ones are normal minifig size)

I’m not sure tbh, it’s hard to judge, I’d say yes, but even if it’s too big it can be scaled down

It includes Dumbledore, Fleur, Harry, Hermione, Madame Maxime, Ron and Viktor

Yeah, we 100% know we’re getting an Advent Calendar

Looks fantastic, it’s pretty accurate to what I remember seeing, seeing it like that, it reminds me of so many little details that Lego put it which needs changing, I don’t remember if it’s quite that wide, but we’ll definitely see if they changed anything when it comes to releasing the sets, if not I will be sorely disappointed

Hmm, odd, I don’t know what to suggest, do you have Instagram? Great minds think alike, haha

That’s a very good question ? Honestly, if the set didn’t have the name next to it I would ask the exact same question, I think they may have done exactly what you said just thrown it together to get it ready for Toy Fair, because even Hagrid’s Hut wasn’t finished and that is an incredibly iconic building from the films, it didn’t even have an interior ?
