That's what the other people who think Gringotts isn't in DA also assume. :P Personally I think Gringotts can still be in DA as it is possible that Gringotts has printed elements, a separate sticker sheet with see through stickers, and/or just another sticker sheet with regular stickers that wasn't leaked. Regardless if it's included or not. I do agree that next year probably will have a playset of some underground parts of Gringotts including the dragon.

Just to clarify, I'm assuming you mean east coast time when referring to the US time? :P

Oh on that bicycle.

Is it PlayToday? I can't find it on their website. :S

Woohoo 500+ pages, here's to the next 500! :) I looked into that minifigure uk shop, but it seems they won't be shipping the 2nd cmf until 15 September, so I'll wait for local webshops to get them.

I really hope it'll include Leicester Square with the LEGO brand retail store since it has to be micro scale. I will be sooooo glad that once the set is revealed we can put to bed so many "theories" or rather personal assumptions.

It has. I've been saying that for the last 5 pages. :P Although I said that we might be missing more sticker sheets and not parts of known sheets, but missing stickers nonetheless. P.S. I'm assuming we're not getting a full reveal before we reach page 500. :(

The perfect example is Pirates of Barricuda Bay, that's a 2-in-1 D2C.

To me those stairs feel more like the stairs leading to Dumbledore's office.

Same.

I wouldn't mind if Gringotts turns out be a separate set next year. It would be weird to get a DA without it though. But I'm not assuming that just because we haven't seen stickers for it (yet). You do make a point that as a separate set it would get more justice, but yeah, I'm not gonna assume. I wanna see proof. :P

I hope another sticker sheet leak or a full reveal is coming soon, because this discussion of Gringotts supposedly not being included just because we haven't seen stickers for it yet is really rubbing me the wrong way. I don't know why... All the stickers confirm is that those shops are included in some way. There's probably a perfectly logical reason why those 4 sheets did not include Gringotts (and LC) stickers as Gringotts might get printed pieces, those transparent stickers on a separate sheet, just a separate sheet with regular stickers, or least likely it's not included somehow which I just refuse to believe until we see the actual set. Luckily that won't take that long anymore as September is slowly approaching. :)

9 new pages in the last 3 hours, something must've leaked. :P It's nice to see that so many shops are coming based on those stickers. However the lack of Gringotts stickers doesn't mean it's not included. It's very possible the Gringotts sign is printer like in the play set I got in the early 00s which had two white 1 by 8 bricks with Gringotts printed on them.

This year has been a little bit crazy in regards to that. I've spend a lot more than in other years. I blame LEGO, they've been making too much good stuff this year. :P Are some of those minifigures custom? Or are they from older sets pre-2018?

Just wanted to be sure, but are you aware that the Patil twins are in this year's advent calendar? Or do you just want make variants wearing the school uniform?

In other related but slightly already outdated news, I finally received the Magical Treasury book with the Tom Riddle minifigure from Amazon. :) It only took them 3 weeks to finally send it after having it preordered a couple of weeks in advance of the release date a month ago. :S I really hope Brickshop will actually start selling the CMF on 7 August, but I kinda doubt it as that's rather soon and still without an announcement from TLG, however that one Romanian shop already has them, so why not Brickshop too? Nonetheless I'll get a notification once they do become available there. It's great that it's only less than a month now until we're finally gonna see Diagon Alley. =D

Yeah, HP so far is my only CMF, HP2 will be my 2nd. :P

It wasn't intentional. I wasn't aware you could "feel" blind bags back then. I just bought/ordered a few bags at a time until I finally got all of them and gave away the duplicates to my sister and a friend who are both HP fans.

I wonder who the new Cedric will be for me. (Context: I got Cedric 4 times last time around :P) P.S. It was not intentional. I got annoyed at getting him that often.

I do indeed think that the next modular will have a 18+ black box probably saying something like "The Modular Collection" just like the Haunted House says "The Fairground Collection". Since LEGO did retire the Creator Expert brand, but at the same time still need to categorise their sets on their website. But time will tell what the future brings us.

Does that mean they're not in DA?

4% VAT difference doesn't explain the 20% price difference though.

Wasn't it that the Danish government has very high taxes? That could explain the absurdly high price. I'd give it €120 tops based on the volume of stuff. I just compared the fire in the city set which costs €99 in the Netherlands and in Denmark it costs 899 DKK which is roughly €120. So converting 1400 DKK to euro minus 20% taxes brings it to around €150 which is still a lot for a set that looks to be worth €120 on first glance.

Looks like that Hungarian guy was correct about the yellow tram. :)

Indeed, that's what I thought as well. :)
