Gryffindor

I just realized two sets off my wishlist are in this Jan 1st wave! My list from a few months ago: DH Locket Horcrux Battle / Tent DH Shell Cottage DH Forbidden Forest Scene DH Blowing Up the Bridge *any set with DH Ron* HBP Inferi Cave HBP Astronomy Tower HBP Slughorn Potions Class OotP Battle of the Department of Mysteries / Hall of Prophecies OotP Room of Requirement Remake GoF Third Task Maze GoF First Task Remake PoA Passageway to Honeydukes remake PoA Lupin’s Boggart Class CoS or PoA or HBP Quidditch Pitch CoS Slytherin Common Room PS/SS Unicorn in the Forbidden Forest PS/SS House Points Hourglasses I’m happy to see Lupin’s classroom and the house points hourglasses making their appearances! Based on what’s left of my list, I’m going to make a prediction on what the summer wave will be, including which patronus will be included! 76462: 14+ (545 pcs.) - probably non-minifigure scale. Maybe a buildable giant Aragog or Basilisk. 76469: 8+ (379 pcs.) - Maybe Forest of Dean with Doe patronus? Though I’m not fully convinced Snape would appear in the set, and they seem to keep the patronus with their owner. 76471: 8+ (788 pcs.) - Shell cottage maybe? Roughly the size of Luna’s house. Could include Ron and his dog patronus. OR another Diagon alley shop expansion, but still probably includes Ron and his dog patronus. 76473: 10+ (2164 pcs.) - most likely a Hogwarts expansion such as the viaduct entrance, including the chamber of secrets and Slytherin common room. Probably includes a Dumbledore figure and Phoenix patronus. If for some reason they include more than one patronus in this set since it’s the biggest one, possibly Snape’s Doe could appear here instead of the Forest of Dean. 76474: 14+ (817 pcs.) - probably non-minifigure scale. Maybe another book nook? 76475: (244 pcs.) - Probably a small classroom expansion. Maybe Divination? Will likely include Harry and his stag patronus. 76477: (480 pcs.) - maybe a new quidditch pitch or other standalone Hogwarts location (similar to the boathouse, herbology greenhouse, and Owlery). The patronus could be Ginny’s horse or Cho’s swan, depending on who is included in the set. If it’s a HBP quidditch pitch, then Ginny. If it’s POA, then Cho. I’d love to hear any of your predictions as well!

I really hope this is true, because I’ve been wanting a Forest of Dean set for so long!! It definitely would be the perfect fit for a Doe patronus, but (to my knowledge) since a Doe mold does not already exist, I’m not sure if they would make a new one or not. My ideal forest of dean would be a build of the tent, a small build of the lake, maybe a small build to represent the dark Horcrux magic, the locket, the doe, and the sword. Minifigure-wise, ideally we’d see Harry, Ron, Hermione, and maybe a Snatcher or something (like Scabior). But Deathly Hallows Ron is a MUST. As far as Patronuses go for this upcoming wave, I feel like the Stag is practically guaranteed along with a high likelihood for a dog. If they’re willing to make a new mold, then Snape’s Doe for sure. I could also see them using a goat for Aberforth or reusing the Phoenix mold for Dumbledore. I would love to see Ginny’s horse, and it would be cool to get a new swan mold for Cho. Otherwise, that leaves Seamus’s fox, Ernie’s boar, Arthur’s weasel, and Kingsley’s lynx. Those are what I can remember off the top of my head. Realistically, probably only like 3 of the sets will have patronuses, given how in this January wave, the Escape from Privet Drive set does not have one. It seems kind of random when they include a patronus in a set or not. I guess once the set names are released, we can have a better idea as to which minifigures will be in sets and which patronuses are likely to be included.

The wait for the Hospital Wing images to drop is driving me crazy! In the meantime, does anyone have any guesses as to what the minifigs will look like? Do we think the trio will be in normal robes with medium legs? Will they have new robe prints? Will they be in their casual clothes from the climax of PoA? Will Lupin and the Dementor be new or existing designs? What hairpieces will the gray lady and Penelope Clearwater use?

Any idea when we might start seeing set images leak? I can’t remember when we got the first images last year. Should be soon-ish, right?

I could totally be wrong, but I thought anniversary bonus things didn’t count toward the set. For example, the golden minifigures in the 20th anniversary wave didn’t count toward the minifigure count / overall cost of the set. So that’s why I figure the stag would be in that set. It would make sense to have the main character’s patronus in a cheaper / easily accessible set (like how they included golden Harry in the cheap polyjuice potion set in 2021). Though if you are correct that it would count against the set, then for sure they would not include it since they’re already giving us 4 figures (one being Hagrid) in a cheaper set! Though if they wanted to include a smaller patronus instead (like Ron’s, Arthur’s, Fred/George’s, or Kingsley), I wouldn’t be mad since I already have Harry’s patronus from 2019! I would think they wouldn’t wait until the summer to give us the main character’s patronus, but who knows at this point. And you’re totally right about Aberforth’s goat! I’d honestly be surprised if we don’t see it at some point since it’s a preexisting mold and one of the few patronuses that are corporeally featured in the series.

Just going to list some thoughts I have on this wave with what we know so far! - I’m super excited about the patronus animals being included in sets! We have confirmed Lupin’s wolf, Hermione’s otter, and Luna’s hare. If the rest of the minifigure scale sets come with animals, my money is on Harry’s stag in the Hagrid motorbike set, McGonagall’s cat in the sorting hat set (since they both already exist in older sets), and then maybe others in the summer wave? Such as Ron’s dog, Ginny’s horse, or Dumbledore’s Phoenix, since those would just need to be recolors of existing molds. - The Hagrid’s motorbike set is probably what I’m most excited for because this is the set I thought the brick built one was going to be, and I’ve been wanting what’s essentially a death eater battle pack! I’m assuming they’ll be two identical figures, but it’ll be nice to get some more death eaters regardless! - The hospital wing set intrigues me. Now that I know it’s most likely POA, I’m more excited about it, though I do have and love the previous hospital wing set. Ideally for me, it would have the clock tower exterior with a hospital wing top floor, lupin’s dada classroom and /or office below, and then somehow incorporate the one eyed witch statue with a hole underneath that leads to the tunnel to honeydukes. And ideally it would come with a Lupin figure. But I may be getting my hopes up too much. - The new Ford Anglia set sounds interesting now that we know a brick built Harry and Ron will come in it, but still going to be a pass for me. But I’m looking forward to seeing it! Same with the Cornish pixie. Not for me, but I’m sure it’ll be cool to see! - Not including Ron in the Lovegood house set is inexcusable in my opinion. There are only 4 actually characters in that scene (the trio and Xeno), so they should be guaranteed in the set. Plus Luna and two death eaters would be icing on top. But I’m really getting frustrated how Ron only gets included in year 1 or 2 sets and we barely get him with medium legs or regular legs anymore! I believe the only older Ron currently on shelves is the new Hogsmeade set, whereas every other Ron appearance currently has short legs. Not sure what Lego has against older Ron, but I really need a DH1 camping / locket horcrux battle set with Ron, as well as a set with DH2 Ron! - Sorting hat set sounds basic, but since it’s inexpensive, I’ll probably get it. I’d love Lego to continue making affordable sets with lots of minifigures! Just like the 2019 Rise of Voldemort set! - Cauldron set sounds interesting in theory, but it’s a bummer it only has two minifigures for that price. Especially since they’re nearly guaranteed to be existing figures, such as the ones in the current potions class set. Might be cool for kids to have a big brick built cauldron to add potion ingredients to if that’s what it’s going to be, but probably not a set for me. - Similarly, the Philosopher’s Stone set sounds basically like a remake of the Icons set from a few years ago, so that’s an easy pass. Even the trio figures will probably be the same as the Main Tower set or very similar, so nothing too exciting there. Okay, I think those are all my current thoughts Lol. Looking forward to hopefully getting more info and pictures soon!

I’d be happy with Sirius! But I’m holding out hope that BrickMatit was right and it’s actually the one-eyed witch statue, which hopefully means a bit of the tunnel to honeydukes is included in the set! Despite it being small and basic, I absolutely love the 2004 version and would love to see it remade!

I love your additions!! Your castle expansions would be so cool to see come true, particularly the OotP one and HBP one because we hardly ever get sets from those films! Also, I never considered a first task with all 4 dragons, but now that’s a must-have (though I doubt Lego will create that)! Those are super cool!! Let’s hope they are included in the sorting hat set, but if not, I might have to create some customs inspired by yours!

Hey all! Since we’re all pondering what new sets could be in store for the future, and since LEGO does appear to be listening to our requests in some regard (Lovegood House, Malfoy Manor, a better Hagrid’s Motorbike set, Dobby’s Sock, etc.), I’m just curious what sets you all might like to see in the future! Despite some remakes, I feel there is still definitely some room for new sets or some improvement for older ones! Here are some of mine that I’d like to see: DH Locket Horcrux Battle / Tent DH Shell Cottage DH Forbidden Forest Scene DH Blowing Up the Bridge *any set with DH Ron* HBP Inferi Cave HBP Astronomy Tower HBP Slughorn Potions Class OotP Battle of the Department of Mysteries / Hall of Prophecies OotP Room of Requirement Remake GoF Third Task Maze GoF First Task Remake PoA Passageway to Honeydukes remake PoA Lupin’s Boggart Class CoS or PoA or HBP Quidditch Pitch CoS Slytherin Common Room PS/SS Library PS/SS Unicorn in the Forbidden Forest PS/SS House Points Hourglasses Some of these could easily be smaller $20-$30 ish sets, which are often some of my favorite sets, like the 2019 Expecto Patronum and the 2019 Rise of Voldemort! I would also love to see the 4 minifigure packs return to give us a Death Eater battle pack! Let us know your thoughts and if you have any other ideas to add!

If it’s not Hermione, it’s probably Katie Bell, right? She would likely have that hair and she would make sense to include since she plays Quidditch.

Has anyone else considered that the Hagrid’s Motorbike set is likely to be a giant buildable motorbike and sidecar (and either no figures or one exclusive Hagrid figure)? Similar to the buildable hedwig, fawkes, Buckbeak, Hungarian Horntail, etc. I would love to be wrong, but at a $50 price point, I just don’t see how it could be a minifigure scale motorbike. Unless privet drive was added to the set, but that would probably be more than $50 then. But the motorbike itself would probably be like a $20 set, so I really don’t know what else they could add to bump the price $30 unless it’s not minifigure scale. While I’ve been waiting for a Battle of the Seven Potters set, I just don’t think this will realistically be it. Though please let me know if anyone has other thoughts on how it could be minifigure scale, or if you have any reason to believe my guess is wrong! Haha, we must have been typing at the same time (regarding the motorbike). Great minds think alike!

Isn’t today the day the new Lego HP game was supposed to be announced, according to the leak? Is anyone else holding out hope today? 😂

@Brick Clicker updated us on 3 sets in his newest video: 1. Battle of Hogwarts set comes with 7 minifigs (Harry, Neville, Molly, McGonagall, Voldy, Bellatrix, and Scabior). The main build is the Clock Tower. 2. Expecto Patronum set is a buildable stag patronus and a buildable wolf patronus. Comes with Harry and Lupin minifigs. 3. Quidditch trunk is pretty much what we expected. It’s a trunk with the 3 quidditch posts build. Comes with Harry, Draco, and parts to make minifigs for all 4 houses. That’s all the new info we were given for now.

So we definitely aren’t getting DH Ron? He was my most anticipated minifig of this wave, and this is the set I’ve been most excited for :(

Hey guys! Any idea on when we might start seeing set descriptions pop up for the summer wave?
