  1. He makes legoleak news videos, he already stated he knows as much as the rest of us. This doesn't need to escalate to the usual witch hunt.
  2. I'm really looking forward to this minifigure lineup. I'm hoping to fill in some gaps like Lockhart, Lucius and the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff student robes. I'm also hoping they take this opportunity to introduce a new broom. The old one looks pretty out of place in the current sets.
  3. Ginny in Gryffindor robes would be a waste unless it was to introduce legs that had printing to represent a skirt under the robe (I know it's a small detail, but it does annoy me that they haven't bothered to represent that, especially this year when they've had no problem doing skirt printing for plenty of other characters). Otherwise we have quite a few Gryffindor robe variations already.
  4. Luna and Myrtyle are on Instagram out of bag. So it's only a matter of time before the leaflet shows up! Luna's legs are nice.
  5. I wouldn't be surprised if they just gave Harry a black cloth cloak element to put over the PS torso to represent his COS look.
  6. I pre-ordered when they went up in May. They released June 1st, and my order was boxed on the 5th (this was also the day they charged my credit card) and shipped on the 8th and arrived on the 10th. So I'd say potentially 5 business days to process.
  7. Yeah, I'm aware, I was replying to a comment wondering if they were fulfilling orders from somewhere in the US, which they aren't. It just happened to be really fast shipping.
  8. According to the tracking on the shipment, it originated from the UK.
  9. I received my order from Zavvi yesterday. Shipped Monday, arrived yesterday at noon. So, it was a good experience for me.
  10. I suddenly realize, if this theme goes long enough, that is probably what's going to happen.
  11. I've been checking over the last eight hours. I haven't seen them go up for pre-order so far.
  12. Did pre-orders not go up for the US? I just checked the website and didn't see anything.
  13. I actually really like that set. The castle looks a bit more finished and complete than the last one did. I might buy it if it goes on sale.
  14. The Burrow has the self knitting needles, that's brilliant!
  15. Not in the slightest. I expected they'd do this. Lego releases at different time in different regions sometimes. Nothing to cry about, it's barely any longer.
  16. Or we could ignore it since there's nothing to be gained from this anyway. The mods know what's going on, they'll get involved if they need to.
  17. Ordinarily the wait for reveals isn't too bothersome to me, but I'll admit, this is one of those rare times it is considerably frustrating me...
  18. Wow, I don't really like any of these sets. I haven't bought any Marvel sets since last spring, looks like the streak will continue.
  19. Given that the riddle mirrors the Anagram scene from COS, there's no way he was talking about Tom the innkeeper.
  20. Given how well this theme seems to be doing, I can't see Lego worrying they couldn't sell another set. Too, I don't think a Chamber of Secrets set would have to be that big. I could easily see them doing the Salazar statue with a Basilisk for the build and including just Harry and Ginny (Since everyone else appears elsewhere). I mean, they can't possibly have it connect below the other Hogwarts sets, and disguising it as a section of Hogwarts proper seems like an equally bad idea, so there's really no reason to make anything beyond the main feature of the chamber.
  21. I wouldn't be too surprised if there was a Chamber of Secrets set coming. I mean this year we know we're getting Privet Dr with Dobby., Moaning Myrtle, Richard Harris Dumbledore with Fawkes and Tom Riddle. I mean there was a decent outcry over the first wave not including the Chamber of Secrets and including the lackluster Fawkes and Basilisk build, so maybe this year they're looking to rectify things. Granted, it could all just turn out to be a coincidence and mean absolutely nothing. It'll be interesting to see what gets revealed...
  22. I'll probably end up using Lavenders hairpiece on Hermione. Ever since the Dimensions Hermione, I've liked that color much better for her than the brown. I'm sure I can dig up a much more suitable hairpiece for Lavender.
  23. That's probably the entire reason they used a Friends hairpiece for her though.
  24. I'm guessing Lavender will have a skirt piece and being that she's using a Friends hairpiece, she'll definitely have a hair bow. So there's a chance this minifigure might not turn out completely terrible. I'm getting kind of tired of these reused faces though. It's bad enough Hermione's been using the same inaccurate face for 2 waves now, and now we have this terrible Lavender face. Meanwhile, Luna has more face variations than I could have ever imagined...
  25. I mean to a certain extent, this might make it easier for parents to figure it out. If a kid says, 'I want the Wonder Woman set', then the giant picture of Wonder Woman on the front of the box will help.
