It’s been asked before but it’s almost February, will We have a 2026 thread?

I would think the kitchen is unlikely because the films are what’s licensed for the LEGO theme, not the books and we never see the kitchen in the movies, I don’t think it’s even mentioned…

Off topic but is anyone else annoyed that after all this time they have not re-used either of those parts multi-packs from 2 years ago? the wands pack from the Olivandar’s shop set (would have been perfect to include with the Malfoy Manor House in black) the spell/blast effect pack which was available in the battle for Hogwarts castle set. to be honest I wouldn’t say no to them appearing in an advent calendar in a new colour (black wands, yellow blast effects etc), they did it for Marvel once.

Brick built Spider with roller skates for the Boggart scene is an excellent inclusion!

While we are waiting we could do another round of speculate/wishlist. I’ll set up a format, come up with a realistic set for each category: Small modular classroom £17: large modular classroom £30: Forbidden Forest set £17-30: brick built magical creature £30-60: Wizarding world location: £60-100: Unexpected experimental sub-line set:

What’s people’s thoughts on the ‘potions cauldron’ set, I assume is going to be similar to many of the ‘dolls’ playsets from Disney etc, boxes which opens with rooms inside. I hope it has Slughorn and a year 5 Shamus for some variety. what else could they do after that and the two trunks? plant-pot- Herbology lesson? crystal ball- Divination?

I can imagine an entire gingerbread CMF: Gingerbread Santa, Gingerbread pirate, Gingerbread Policeman, Gingerbread witch, Gingerbread bear costume, Gingerbread baker/chef, Gingerbread ninja, Gingerbread dinosaur costume, Gingerbread snowman, Gingerbread Knight, Gingerbread mum & baby, Gingerbread Astronaut, Gingerbread dog owner with gingerbread dog! Gingerbread werewolf! etc all on exclusive gingerbread printed stands 😄

Thinking about the Starwars Gingerbread AT-AT, what festive sets could they do for Harry Potter? Pumpkin for Halloween? Gingerbread Great Hall?

It’s a stretch but I think i remember some people have speculated that the ghost briefly seen sat in the Transfiguration classroom in the first movie when the trio rush to tell McGonagall about the stone being stolen could be the professor.

I could see that and it might work, the two towers are next to each other in the PoA version of the castle, and could share a rocky base with dungeons. Only thing is the figures and Buckbeak are an overlap with the Sirius Reacue set from a little while ago. Maybe they could sell it by combining it with the Care for Magical creatures lesson with some trees as a side build and a new Hagrid. They could do that with a Clock Tower set also.

I had the thought the set would be a diorama of all the challenges like 77015 Lost Temple, complete with quotes and mechanisms at each stage. But I’m not sure now after the Main Tower set.

Thanks! I might post instructions in my story

Regarding house Hourglasses: They might be included in the House Sorting set coming soon, otherwise I think they would be a good addition to a future Advent Calendar. For fans of Hogwarts Legacy video game you might like to check out my MOC of the Hourglasses inspired by that version of the castle: Hogwarts Legacy Hourglasses MOC

Great list! I’ve borrowed it and developed it into my own list: DH advent calendar with DH Ron, Luna from the wedding etc DH wedding tent with Bill, Fleur, Death Eater, and an outstanding Mr Lovegood figure in his gold suit. HBP Astronomy Tower: Slughorn Potions Class in the basement, his office at ground level and Astronomy classroom above etc. OotP Battle of the Department of Mysteries / Hall of Prophecies (death Eater battle pack, at least 2 for £20). Build is the moving door, shelves of prophecies etc. OotP Hogwarts castle section with the following rooms: 1 Room of Requirement with Cho & Neville, 2 Umbridge’s office with a new Umbridge, Filtch, 3 exam hall with fireworks, Fred & George, Harry etc. OotP advent calendar which is mixed between G.Place and the RoR: draws are a new recolour of one of the dog moulds for Ron’s pratronus, and missing member Doge (he was in the background of the Privit Drive broomstick scene), and a repeat Death Eater. GoF First Task Remake: ~£125: four dragons built to the same size and standard as the Gringotts Dragon + a bit of arena (see 76088), four champions, 3 head teachers + Rita (new variant) PoA Lupin’s Boggart Class module as is own classroom module set CoS Lockheart’s Pixie class as its own classroom module set, includes dragon skeleton. Divination classroom as its own classroom module Prefect bathroom as a small (Charms class) size module, with shirtless Harry & Myrtle, golden egg, maybe some extra creative liberties such as gold statue of a merperson. CoS Slytherin Common Room in a large Hogwarts section, perhaps merged with Myrtle’s toilet and the COS proper. PS/SS Unicorn in the Forbidden Forest: with Fang again and a new Hagrid version.

Edit: didn’t see the previous page of comments, for some reason my feed loaded without all post-leak conversation. Looks like 3 groupings of buildings on grey baseplates. 7 shops/pubs represented. The baseplates might explain the high price/part ratio White horse with black sleigh for Fudge :) no Hagrid :( New colour of the hat/hair from the Jaws set for Ron New torso designs/variants for everyone except Mrs Flume, Draco, Mcgonagall and Fudge I think. Aberforth leg printing for kilt. Mix of at HBP, OotP and PoA sticker details and figures, nice and versatile!

Nice to see the baby dragon mould in another set, pleasantly surprised.

Considering the upcoming set descriptions are some of the things which people have had on lists for a while what do you think Lego can do next? If you could direct a wave of sets for next year what would they be?

I can only think of: Hagrid (hopefully a new coat print/colour for his moleskin coat), a horse for a sleigh (the one Fudge arrives on in POA), and possibly a cow (there is a highland cow in the background of some shots in POA). Maybe also printed windows like the original DA quidditch shop, rather than using stickers for Zonko’s etc.

I would be amazed if a death Eather or Voldemort were included, my preference would be a repeat of the DE from GRINGOTS on a broom.

I also hope it’s POA and we finaly get another MG Dumbledore! The rock module could be the witch statue passage to Hogsmeade (a loose tie in to the UCS set). I would personally love if they borrowed from Hogwarts Legacy and put in a new Prefect Bathroom in the middle/ground level

I’ll expect: 3 Broomsticks, Honeydukes, Pink TeaShop, horse drawn sleigh, Hogs Head, members of Dumbledore’s Army having a meeting. I would wish for also: orange (highland) Cow, New Hagrid, new Slughorn, Fudge, clock building, beer wagon, and train station from the theme park. Like the new Dursley House I would expect details and even figures from multiple movies.

I’m not going to buy the main tower itself but that’s only because I’m going to build it using my own existing parts!, I’ll just have to wait for the new roof cones to appear on bricklink or B&P! It’s definitely the best version of the tower and I’m happy they included the fat lady portrait for those who can’t get the staircase GWP.

Balin’s tomb in the mines of Moria would be more appropriate as a book-nook, as it’s an enclosed rectangular room with walls and collumns. The Door of Durin with the Watcher in the water would work well as a book-end too

I imagine Dol Guldur Battle 79014, and was swapped for Azog after the studio made all the changes mid-production.

Hi everyone the other day I found on eBay what claims to be an unused prototype for a headgear element for the original character design for Bolg, it looks legit from the sculpt style and the logo inside the hollow stud: https://ebay.us/m/K0gLm3
