Maybe we get Aberforth Dumbledore's patronus goat next year
-
It should also be bigger than some Lego dogs, since it is bigger in real life. However no stud is strange when the hare got it, it looks like the hare is to big, but the otter is fine.. Easier to know when we get them beside minifigs.. Do not think that is a problem The question if when and if Lego will include them in "normal" colours, would be such a waste if they do not
-
Strange that the otter do not have a stud, but the hare does. How big is that hare, the otter weighs 2-3 times as much in real life Yes somewhat frustrating, maybe the smaller animals will show up sooner
-
Mostly the older sets are not as good as the new ones, so only a few characters and creatures are missing now that we have gotten earlier. However that number is dvindeling every year e.g. Fawks this year.. Will we get a proper basilisk and Fluffy, not so sure so glad I have the old ones. On the other hand I think that DA and the Burrow is some of the best sets made in HP Lego, that may off course change when we get new ones I hope and think it is not micro-scale, but until I see some solid proof that it is system-scale I am not sure This is the same every time with animal moulds, there are always a chance we will never get them again. So when they make a new one, buy the number you want or you may end up waiting for years or forever and the price will only go up

They for sure are getting better at keeping secrets Are you sure? Well sometimes they make them for BAM later.. I agree, as long as it sell they will make sets I do not remember exactly, but I think the first wave sold crazy well. Then for the next wave (or the next one) they made a lot of sets, however they where released in a year that did not have a HP film. Without the hype from the film the sets sold poorly, so they got burned. After that Lego made fewer and fewer sets to go with the next films until they stopped. Then for the 2 last films they made some best of sets from different films and a D2C to go out with a bang. I think the last waves did well, but it was not in TLG mind to release more sets without new movies.. Then as time goes HP get more and more fans, the kids growing up with it, start having kids of their own and the demand for HP Lego sets are increasing. So FB was probably the excuse they needed to start again, but even without FB I think they would have tried eventually

LEGO City 2020 - Rumors, Speculation, and Discussion
Roebuck replied to Digger of Bricks's topic in LEGO Town
Definitely, but as I have said before the reason we have not got it later is because other themes do better in play-tests with children. So say they matched farm with divers and more kids liked divers most that why we get that in summer this year.. Either we can hope than they get more kids growing up on farms for the next testing or hope that this sets gets approved on ideas: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/299064a7-4585-425b-8ee2-73ab7730c498 -
5 Harry's I am not sure what some of you are smoking in the quarantine Nobody want more than 1 Harry in the set and personally I would be fine without one (not that that would ever happen), if you have one other set you have a Harry fig, if you have two sets you have two etc.. It is a rare gift to get a set without Harry, so unless they make the scene with 7 Potters we are only getting one in every set. Lego is not stupid and Harry are not a army-builder fig so no way they will waste 5 spots on Harry minifigs in DA. So take the Harry fig included an put it with Hagrid entering DA, then put it in Ollivanders to buy its first wand etc. No need for him to be everywhere at the same time.. I really hope Magical Menagerie or Eeylops Owl Emporium is included, but it is probably not
-
The way they make the set this time around I am sure we will get the brick-wall and probably the LC also
-
Would be interesting to see if anyone buys 2 sets and make one ship then use the extra parts from the island (and parts removed from ship to make room for cannons) to add them to the second island. That is my plan in the future when I get it at lest
-
My guess would be that the figs in the set are from different movies regarding that hint. So we get some figs from every time the movies was in DA
-
The xtra set Is really good as a addition to the pirate bay, but we can dream of getting one even better a cannon on wheels with a few cannon balls keep the chest but include gold coins change the shark with the new hammerhead shark a fish or two, but include a fishing rod change the parrot with a chicken include a seagull, lobster and or the new turtle some pirate weapons if there are room for more parts
-
We are most likely getting a pig in a set this year similar to the one in pirate bay since they probably did not have enough "designer coins" to pull it of themself.. The only one I can think of is the Burrow (no farm sets in city etc) so may be what he is hinting at
-
Well it is not necessarily a bad thing for Lego to have more sets to choice from
-
That is a good point The hammerhead looks the same as the normal shark (I do not mind the eye to much) so consistent in that way, but the GWS do definitely look much more realistic.. To me it is: HS shark and similar no thank you normal shark that is OK GWS yes please that is perfect I still assume the hammerhead, normal and GWS to come in the same wave of city sets, but maybe they do not Strange indeed
-
Me too That must be the Hidden side shark I am sure they would never include that in city or similar themes, Just look at the great white shark and the pig, they changed the eyes of them to include them in city and pirates
-
It is hare, I did not remember myself so I checked. Probably part of why they did not use the rabbit, is has also a more action pose than the rabbit. Hopefully we get it in more useful colours than that soon
-
You are right! The hat/hair mould is really nice, but accessorize-wise one sword is not up to CMF standard. There should have been no problem for the CMF to bring back the 2016 monkey in a new colour. If the CMF had used the budget on it, the pirate bay could probably also afford it in the set
-
It sure can be used as one with the stud an all if it comes in brown later (still no stag in brown unfortunately).. The pirate bay had a really small budget with not even enough "designer coins" to bring back the monkey in new colour HP/WW on the other hand has enough "designer coins" to buy 2 new animal moulds in a 20 $ set
-
That explains the new mould it is off course a hare not a rabbit. Looks like a European hare to me which would make sense. I agree that it front paws look big, but the head look really nice.. I wonder how big it is since it has a stud I mean
-
Sign me up I have mentioned it when the first picture came some time ago, but did not know it was for sale yet. Thanks for the update Definitely a good place to pick up the white bird, maybe the BL price will go down also I am really surprised they did not use the existing rabbit mould hard to tell from the picture, but it looks a little bit on the big side yes, looks like huge front paws. It even has a stud so should definitely be bigger than the other bunny mould. Looks more like a European hare to me
-
The one piece and recolour I was hoping we would get in BAM was the dachshund in black/tan. And look and behold there it is Thank you Lego The chicken is also nice to get there.. I will buy a huge amount of BAM figs next time I am in a Lego store hopefully in September in the Lego house
-
Just the recolour I wanted I am getting a new puppy in 2 months that have the same colours Thank you Lego and in BAM to boot I will get a LOT of them when the shops open eventually
-
nice one I hope for something as close to -97 divers as possible and seeing that polybag it looks more than promising
-
It probably comes in other sets as well, but should make it rather easy to get a few for a decent price (could be cheaper than a CMF).. That National Geographic logo could be good news regarding animals

Animal-wise that can not be bad news
