Of course, how can I forget GoF Tonks... Would've loved to get her in this series. Oh well, I hope she'll show up in a set or the next CMF.
-
I hadn't realised that. But that also doesn't prove there can't be a series 3 of a licensed CMF. Disney only just had a series 2 last year, so a series 3 is still possible for them. They somehow still come up with more regular series (upto 20 now), so I don't see how a licensed CMF can't do the same.

Woohoo! Amazing, I had never expected to get Lily and James as a minifigure. Plus finally an opportunity to get the Weasley twins cheaply! I've got a friend who loves the twins, so now I can just give them to her. Still hoping they'll be in DA though. Also it's nice to get another Ginny, just the second one since the reboot. Would it have been nice to get Pomfrey and Rita too? Yes, but they need to leave something for a series 3. :P And based on what I've seen I'm pretty sure HP will be around for a little while longer so a series 3 is definitely possible.

Looks like PromoBricks says you can already preorder the CMF (and ACs) from some German webshop. https://www.promobricks.de/lego-71028-harry-potter-rabatt/105937/

My first set was probably 4701 Sorting Hat most likely followed by 4723 Diagon Alley Shops, 4712 Troll on the Loose, 4714 Gringott's bank, and 4750 Draco's Encounter with Buckbeak. Sometime during 2018 I also got 4754 Hagrid's Hut and 4708 Hogwarts Express from a local LEGO convention totally oblivious from the fact that that year would get a reboot giving us an even better Hagrid's Hut (although it's not fully enclosed) and a nicer Hogwarts Express with station. I don't remember a tease of it, but I could be wrong.

Very nice. I should look into that one. I liked building the Haunted House very much. It looks and works (the free fall drop) very good. =D

Very nice! =D

I'm mainly into the following which is generally all minifigure/system scale with the notable exceptions being the UCS Hogwarts and the GWP Diagon Alley: - Harry Potter: I've got all sets since the 2018 reboot minus the BrickHeadz which are not my thing. I've also got some ancient ones, but I want to sell those as I prefer the 2018+ stuff. Just for this theme I'm a completionist within the parameters mentioned before. - City: Mainly only sets I like or want/need, and there's only so many police and fire vehicles you can tolerate. :P Although I do try to get all passenger trains, train stations, as well as hospitals. - Creator Expert: I'm trying to get all the Modulars, but the first 3 are just tooooo expensive, so that'll probably never happen. I've also started collecting the Fairground rides since the Rollercoaster, which means I got that and the Haunted House. And I will be getting the Crocodile Locomotive once that's available again. :/ Of the seasonal ones I got the Winter Fire Station and Winter Train Station. I didn't really like the Winter Train, although I do like trains, just not this one. - Creator: Some of the 3-in-1 houses. I kinda miss the old residential buildings from the late 00s, those were nice. - Star Wars: Since this theme has tooooo many sets, I've decided to limit myself to just getting all Mandolarian sets (minus the BrickHeadz) and selectively other cool sets like the UCS Millenium Falcon and I'm planning on picking up the upcoming AT AT. - Chinese: I got 80103, 80104, and 80105. 80101 and 80102 are unfortunately too exclusive. :/ - Ideas: So far only the following: Big Bang Theory, Central Perk, Old Fishing Store, the Rocket Ride GWP, and Tree House. - Speed Champions: First I got the latest Porsche 911, then I saw some others and now I got 5 of them and will probably get some of the other newest ones too. - Marvel: I've got the Hall of Armour and the Captain Marvel polybag so far. And I'm planning on getting the new Avengers tower and possibly MOC it and make it bigger as many other AFOLs have done before me with the 2015 edition and I also want the Hall of Armour add-on. But besides that I really regret missing the Sanctum Sanctorum showdown as well as the previous Avengers Tower, but there's a new coming so now I won't need the old one. - Ninjago: Only got the Ninjago City, Ninjago City Docks, and the Temple of Spinjitzu. Don't really like anything else. Those three I can combine with the 3 Chinese sets I got to create an Asia district in my city. I think that's everything. :P I do get some other themes from mid to late 90s like some random little pirate set or a space set (just regular one, not one of those fancy Space Police themes). But those themes are not current anymore, so I've not taken them into this overview of just current themes. I wish I didn't miss the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit themes as I wasn't really aware they were a thing until it was too late. I do have two polybags, one of each.

I wish I could loosen a bolt to get more drips.

Birth of a new Lego city [UPDATE #24 Overpass completed! ]

I think everyone with a city knows what "complete" means, as real cities, they always change over time. It looks really nice. That AFOL graffiti looks awesome. =D -

That explains it. :P They do indeed list it. -

I did check the Portuguese version of LEGO.com and that one also said 1 August. Perhaps other webshops already got it? -
LEGO City 2020 - Rumors, Speculation, and Discussion
Salix replied to Digger of Bricks's topic in LEGO Town
According LEGO.com it's coming to Europe on 1 August and the US on 1 September. -
Perhaps just in the US. I haven't seen signs of things being delayed overhere in Europe. All new Star Wars and Marvel summer sets for instance are still listed as coming on 1 August overhere.
-
I just read it wrong after which I realised what you meant, but I wanted to check if the DA GWP fitted into the modular GH anyway. :P
-
I haven't build the Hogwarts D2C yet, but I can confirm that the DA GWP is too big to fit into the modular Great Hall. If it was 2 studs shorter in length then it would definitely fit.
-
I think it's an estimate based on the price tag, yes. As for the whole micro/miniscale discussion, some people apparently REALLY want a huge chunk of London to come with DA. :P

Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion
Salix replied to The Jersey Brick Guy's topic in LEGO Town
The Corner Garage is back in stock, so I quickly ordered it. I wonder how long it'll stay in stock this time. Last time, it only stayed in stock for a day. EDIT: And it's gone again a day later. -
Those catalogues have been out for 2 weeks now btw which translates to probably 30 pages ago or something. :P
-
Other end of the flu network confirmed? Same, I find it the most annoying way to communicate. At least most people have short instagram stories unlike mini_legogo who has very looooong stories. I just not a fan of that format. Either just post pictures or not, don't use some weird fast power point-ish presentation to communicate.

It used to say 13 July, but now it says 14 July. It's only site that says so as far as I know though. -

Only thing I'm aware of is that it allegedly has a yellow tram and some vehicles and buildings. But nothing more than that. I'm not even certain it's real, but I do hope so. -

Are you perhaps referring to the Nintendo NES set? -
