    It was a vulture, but the closest Lego got is that crow and I think it should have been included in the set On the other hand that is my only compliant with the set, it is a fantastic set for HP fans Thanks for the review, you should definitely (read the books, then) see the movies

    Congratulations I think I got mine as well, but I do not have it in my hands yet.. A employee I know bought it for me (Sarpsborg) I called Ski again this morning and they still did not have it Seems like it is the same problem in Denmark when I checked their facebook page Some shops have it and the rest can not be far from getting it I think
  3. Roebuck
    I called the Ski store, and they said the promo have started, but they still are waiting for the figs Said they are posting on facebook when they get them.. Other stores could have them now maybe

    Sounds like we agree after all

    I just used SW to make a point.. Say angry birds if you prefer that, if AB is gaining a lot of popularity in 5 years time Lego do not need 10 000 votes in a ideas set to understand that.. They would probably made HP sets soon now even if the FB movies were not produced, just because it is so popular and they have made them in the past.. Now Flintstones on the other hand is a cartoon from the sixties, so not the first thing they would think about making a set of, but then suddenly one gets 10 000 votes in ideas and they look into it and it turns out being a potentially good idea.. If now suddenly 100 very good builders submit one Flintstones set each, none of them will make it even if several of them get 10 000 votes since Lego have made a set from the license before regardless if it is active or not..

    What are the chances a ideas set will get produced if it is in a old Lego license?! Let say Lego stop making SW sets, then 5 years from now a SW set get 10 000 votes in Lego ideas. Will it get approved; most likely not! To me it is pretty clear that Lego wants original ideas or if it is a licensed set it must be something they have not already made set for in the past, in other words bring something new to the table.. Something original is off course really hard to invent, but I think a lot of talented builders are wasting their time and skill on making something too close to something we already have seen

    Why not, it it gets 10 000 votes they can just not approve it.. Looking forward to seeing the finished tree-house, will decide then if I buy it.. Too bad it did not include a couple of goats and a cow grazing under the tree

    Nothing is certain!: Is it 5? Winter? Summer? 2019? 2020? Well they have done one set for this movie and one from the first.. They are probably taking very few chances so far with FB, if the 2 first sets sell well more will follow in future waves.. It is also hard for Lego to make sets from FB movies that have not been on the cinemas yet because of all the secrecy. The last FB film have a premier in 2024, if we get one wave every year it will be quite a few sets in total. So I do not think they will rush out with a lot of sets now, made before they have seen the movies.. If the FB sell as good as HP I think we will see a shift towards more FB sets in the waves as the years go by, but for now I expect more HP than FB in next (my guess is summer 2019) wave

    Me too The modular is probably out of the question, and the rest I have no interest in buying, but hard to guess this round with no clear candidate
  10. Roebuck
    Thanks for the reply I assume you will let us know when you do
  11. Roebuck
    Thanks for the reply I was not expecting much from the winter wave anyway, summer is usually a better bet when police and fire-fighters are not taking all the spot light
  12. Roebuck
    Did you spot any new animal moulds?
  13. Roebuck
    Sorry for off topic.. Do you know if there is any Harry Potter (or Fantastic Beasts) D2C rumors for next year?
  14. Roebuck
    Just got a mail from a employee at TRU I know, the promo has been postponed to week 41 in Norway because of a late shipment of figs from Lego!
  15. Roebuck
    I called two shops today and the employees I talked to did not manage to get hold of any confirmation.. One said it was strange because they usually have the info and sets in the middle of September.. but hopefully TRU get them at least and we get some more solid info soon.. When I called customer service earlier they told me week 40/41 until 43, so I think they will have them sooner or later, shop@hope I am getting more unsure if they will have it..
  16. Roebuck
    LM 2 I have very low expectations to, I have no use for mad max figs or minidolls, hopefully a new animal in it.. Series 19 on the other hand is hopefully the first normal series since 2017 so that should be great
  17. Roebuck
    Do you know if it is from Monday or Friday (like Canada)? And if it is only HP next week or all 4 an then choose one (like last year)?
  18. Roebuck
    I for one was sure the rumor of the rerelease of the wind turbine was fake, but I was wrong So with the "out of the vault" everything is possible even sets that was never released in the first place, but made on commission to be given as a employee gift in Veastas.. This theme is a nightmare to scalpers and a dream to new fans you want the old sets.. The only similarity I see between the two sets are that they are around 10 years old and have a high price on secondary marked. I know it is a year to next set in this series, but what do you think we could get back from the vault?
  19. Roebuck
    23rd of November.. I personally did not believe this rumour, but apparently I was wrong Luckily I got the old one cheep, but a lot of people who paid top dollar for the original is probably not very happy now The reason the old one was so expensive is mostly because it is so rare, I wonder how much this rather expensive 10 year old set set is going to sell with minor updates
  20. Roebuck
    It has been a popular theory in the web, so I was not so surprised, but good to get it confirmed..Neville you just chopped the head of a old lady Maybe we will see the new nagini mould in some FB sets.. The trailer looked great
  21. Roebuck
    Sounds promising! I sent a mail now to TRU, so maybe they know more closer to October Edit: Got a reply now! The info they had was that the campaign will start week number 40/41 and last to 43.. I guess sometime next week is most likely then if it is going to last 4 weeks.. So we shroud see some ads for it very soon then
  22. Roebuck
    Most likely no, there is usually brickbuilt figs and minifig scenes seasonal sets every other year, so next year I assume the minifigs are back in those sets.. That was last years set, so probably just a error on the Norwegian page. I do not expect to see a return of that set this year, they usually are a one hit wonder
  23. Roebuck
    Not unless the polybag is a GWP, but maybe the store calendar will have some info on the bricktober set.. Polybags usually pop up with out a warning or someone find a picture or similar on the Lego server
  24. Roebuck
    In the second half of 2019?! That is a little strange if the June rumour is right, but as you say could surface later The shops do not get the retailer catalogue for next year until January-February, right? So plenty of time to update it with WW sets This years catalogue did not have prelims of any WW sets, but at least it had stand in for 5 of them..
  25. Roebuck
    We have already gotten Grindelwald´s Escape - 75951 from that movie, off course that do not mean that we could not get more sets sooner or later from the film.. The Diagon Alley set and the bricktober set will show up on a wider geographical scale soon I guess, maybe as GWP, but that do not necessarily mean that we will get a normal wave of sets at the same time.. By the way I expect the polybag set to pop up in a magazine or similar as well, would not be surprised if we get another polybag released either
