Seaber

You can see one of the sinks flips forwards and can be places on top of the slide in the CoS set.

Gambon's Dumbledore actually has loads of variants - but they're all very similar. Compare the PoA welcome feast to the GoF welcome feast to the Horcrux Cave outfits for example, you can see subtle but clear changes in the costume. By my count there were about six versions of Gambon's pale blue costume. I guess it's good we're getting another Harris Dumbledore, shame it doesn't have the skirt piece but another new figure :D

Lovely stuff! Kind of a shame that it's not a new print, but my bank account is more cheerful this morning

Where has that been revealed? Great if it's correct, no need to BL Dumbledore parts like I had to do with Hedwig's Harry :)

He does put on a cloak later in the film though.

The new wave has at least six of these panel pieces which aren't great for moccing, so are kinda like the 2018+ version of this old piece from the 2010-11 line

Ah, right, I'm colourblind so that point has escaped me :D If the 2x2 jumper is to stand a figure on then, one would assume any Dumbledore figure would have the skirt piece rather than the legs in the first wave/first AC. Maybe the purple one that's in the CoS set but with a hat piece?

Fawkes should be golden Dumbledore right as the golden figs hacmve CMF stands and the jumper plate is for Minifig Fawkes' perch? Fawkes looks great, but he's design lends itself to Lego far more than Hedwig. Glad I can save money on both Fawkes and the Figures, but I like seeing them and hope to see more in future. I think the only think I'm disappointed about so far is the Glow in the Dark Nick. I hope they revert to the older style if they ever do the Grey Lady, Fat Friar and Bloody Baron.

My god those house shields are fit. Wonder what's inside the building!

Chess pieces look a little small, but loads of great accessories so it shouldn't be hard to bulk them up a bit. I guess Ron stands on a 1x2 plate or something to ride the horse?

Hermione's fringe is a bit severe, otherwise they look cool. Huge clothe piece on Harry though.

I really like how they're making the most of the roof space in the Great Hall. Compare the amount of fun stuff we're getting compared to the 2018 GS Tower which was so bland by comparison, the line is really coming along well for both minifigures and interior details. I also have a feeling there might be some sort of surprise (gem/cup sort of thing) hiding behind the lovely black Hogwarts banner.

I think I've found my first nitpick with Hogsmeade. The Three Broomsticks has lattice work on the large windows, but not on the small. I thought this was weird, as the lattice infill piece is available in pearl gold, but I realised on the left hand side one of the windows is one of the three tall window pieces, for which there isn't yet a lattice part. The other options would have been a sticker like in Honeydukes. It would have been great to get the actual pane for this, as the windows look a little too open and bright without the lattice work. Still love the set of course!

Guessing the 16 cards will be like guessing the CMF spots lol. I reckon 4 founders, Dumbledore, Voldemort, Grindelwald, Newt Scamander, Nicolas Flamel and (baby) Harry Potter will be amongst them.

Not sure what to make of the tower room in the Fluffy set. The trippy looking patterened stickers make me think Divination, but that's unlikely due to the anniversary nature of the sets... My best guess is just generic classroom/store room.

Just looking at the hair colours - Dean has gone from dark brown to black NHN has the first ever GITD hairpiece New colours for McGonagall, Mrs Flume, Rosmerta, Dumbledore, Colin (I think its Medium Nougat rather than the already available dark tan)

Weird, but it makes no difference to me, it's all about that robe piece Hopefully we get a robes student pack as well as a Quidditch robes pack in the next few years. I love all the Lockhart classroom/office stuff, and that Hogwarts banner. Dumbledore's hair in white is great, just wish it came with the hat piece as well, but that's just being greedy. These sets are really, really cool.

Wait, there is a blonde girl with Ravenclaw robes in the CoS set. Did we know about her before? Could she be Penelope Clearwater? Really cool we finally get Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw robes! No moments Hufflepuff torso yet though.

From the figures we know are coming in the next wave, I've updated the list of all the human character minifigures we still need from the first three films. With Sinistra coming I've also included some more minor characters. Hogwarts Students: Lee Jordan, Percy Weasley, Alicia Spinnet, Millicent Bulstrode, Ernie Macmillan, Penelope Clearwater Hogwarts Residents: Professor Vector, Madam Prince, Madam Pomfrey, Fat Friar, Grey Lady, Bloody Baron Magical World: Tom the barman, Daedelus Diggle, Doris Crockford, Augusta Longbottom, Mr Borgin Muggles: Aunt Marge, Kings Cross Guard, Mr Mason, Mrs Mason There are also characters like Angelina Johnson, Katie Bell and Pansy Parkinson who appear in the first three films, but their main actor does not appear until a later film. So there are not many big characters left. It's quite impressive how thorough this line has been for the early films, hopefully the later films will catch up soon. Four of the five Magical World characters would fit in the Leaky Cauldron and Borgin and Burkes, of the Muggle characters only Aunt Marge deserves any new parts so perhaps she'd be good in a CMF. For all the Hogwarts characters only Madam Pomfrey and Lee Jordan need new hat/hair pieces, the rest are simple enough with existing parts (and in some cases existing prints).

JFF and Lockhart torsos, Sinistra full figure, bathroom set figures heads and hair. Keep forgetting we have a new Dumbledore coming, doesn't make my top figure/minifigure parts though.

Centaur options with original hair and Mordor Orc hair. I hope they keep the old winged key design, I have plenty to populate the Chamber! The wing piece has been out of production for about 20 years though :D

Yeah I'm excited to build the CoS set, but like all the HP stuff it'll get broken up for parts at some point. I really like the look of the tall tower even though it doesn't look like a part of Hogwarts. I'm also looking forward to the bathroom set, but the Forbidden Corridor is kind of like the Star Wars Rancor set - it's so much about the creature the build is less interesting. As you say, Hogsmeade is the best looking of the bunch :)

As in people wanted to use dark brown for Bellatrix?

2001s Forbidden Corridor set had Harry's flute and Hermione's blue flames. Other than that there were more general 'surprise' play features like hidden items and trick walls which were alluded to in the books but not seen in the first films.
