  1. Looks like I nailed it then The animals in cmf is a mouse, but it is as big as a rat
  2. Care to elaborate that statement
  3. The mammoth should be around the next iceberg then
  4. The more the merrier A sheep is long overdue, maybe a hammerhead shark with a diver if we are pushing the boundaries here A roe deer would be a dream come true for me, but any deer would be great
  5. Thanks for the heads up I usually have not much interest for extinct animals in Lego form, but I will probably acquire a couple of saber tooths This is increasing the chance for a new male lion head mould in the near future as well They sure put the big cat mould to good use The mammoth should follow soon I guess, I am unsure how close that mould(s) are to modern elephants..
  6. It is probably a limited arctic set with a new killer whale mould..
  7. I wonder how they have made the WW, it is very difficult to make trees look good in Lego and the WW is not the easiest tree to build either I guess with playfunctions and every thing When do shops get pictures of the sets coming out in August? Or do they have to order unseen from the dealers catalog that came out earlier? It would be easier to calculate when we will see the pictures at the latest if we knew
  8. I hope to see the owlery and greenhouses in D2C, but it is maybe a bigger chance they are add ons in later waves..A long as we get them sooner or later I am happy
  9. That is almost 1$ cheaper than when i ordered it two weeks ago, not always best to be first in line I see
  10. A part of the trick is to get people collecting a series, like with the modulars! A lot of fans buy every modular because they collect the series, myself included. Some of the sets I instantly love, but often I need to get to know them first before I get warm feelings Looks may vary, but they are always great to build and I do not want a single gap in the collection If this series goes where I think, it will probably be the greatest collectible series Lego have ever released! Just think about the potential if more or less every set from the smallest impulse set to the biggest D2C fit together like a glove Well the kids trying out the set where annoyed that only few figs could sit at the tables, so unfortunately for us they changed it. Still it is hard to argue with that decision since we need a lot of kids buying the sets to give the series a long prosper life.. Hopefully we will get a dress piece for her in a future set
  11. I did the comparison with today's currency converter so that has probably change a lot since last summer, so the price may have been the same in both countries. The price has gone down yes I complained that the black bear was so expensive, because last summer I bought polar bears for around 2,5£ each! Then the nice lady on the phone said the prices may vary after how big the inventory is. So that could mean that the black bear will go down in price as the stock increases and people stop buying it, but if you wait to long they are sold out so it is a gamble at best By the way the price on the skunk is around 2£, but that was almost the same as Animal Control Minifigure so I have a few of those.. You are welcome Thanks for the tip, but only proper animal mould pieces count for me
  12. I find it most likely that the D2C is possible to connect to the normal sets like great hall, so I expect it to have the same style With a very nice front and a open back with a lot of details, some parts maybe possible to close like the ghostbuster HQ I guess
  13. It is a small chance the sticker sheet comes with extra house flags, so it is possible to have the same house on both flags I guess Some of the trains have extra numbers to put on the carriages, but I think the chance is fairly low on such big stickers as this
  14. Leopard and black panther are available online, the rest is marked as sold out, so then you have to pick up the phone yes
  15. When i did it last summer the price was around: -tiger 4,45£ -leopard 4,36£ -black panther 3,72£ They have probably changed a little bit/ could be different in another country? Now the price was: cougar 4,54£ black bear 5,63£ They are not getting cheaper, but still better than on bricklink
  16. The knight bus should be in the next wave, the other two you probably have to wait a bit for, but not impossible if the theme is a huge success as I predict it will be
  17. Well it could be, but usually the "leakers" know very little about the D2C sets so long before it is released.. What we should get more info about sooner rather than later is the normal sets in the wave, I think a lot of pieces will fill out the puzzle when we see a picture of the ww set
  18. They are listed as sold out (still see them on the page) for me also now, no wonder after the shoal I got in the net
  19. https://ibb.co/ixYF3H A small fortune in animal moulds When I was planning to order I did a search on the design number for the fish and to my big surprise the black fish turn up as a option To my knowledge that has only been in the ninjago cmf, so if you want to buy a part in a colour that has only been in a CMF I would recommend that you do a search on the design number to see if it is available on bricks and pieces
  20. Well you could be right, but I find it hard to believe that the leakers knew about the sets, but made up the figs Unless it where from different sources which I can not remember.. Even the designer said that the figs where not final before what sounded like quite late in the design process.. Still the smallest FB set so far has only Newt confirmed according to leaks so more figs will follow I guess What it the leaker(s) saw the whomping willow set connected to the great hall set, with the figs mixed. With 2 Harry and Ron, they obviously belong in different sets, but harder to know with the rest so Snape and the two dementors actually comes with the WW set? Rather far fetched theory I admit, but not impossible
  21. Yes, that is not out of the question right?! To me it is a little odd if they do not include FB figures in the CMF series, to merge the two film series under the The Wizarding World umbrella.. It there is a quidditch set coming out as some people are hinting about, then most likely another fig disappear from the rumored list (Rolanda Hooch), I think some of the empty spots are FB figs So far only 1 of the 4 fan favorites from the first movie are confirmed in a set, something is not adding up
  22. Well this wave is based on 1-2 so I assume the next wave are based on 3-4.. My predictions are from the 3 movie: Knight Bus shrieking shack (connecting to whomping willow) Hagrid's Hut (with a new moulded Fang and Buckbeak) From the 4 movie it is harder to guess but one set with the Hungarian Horntail is likely at least A new CMF series is also possible and a D2C forbidden forest.. From FB I have no idea
  23. Well I hope we get Mrs Norris, but she is not a minifig so I did not include her. Voldemort is present on the back of a head and the dementors do not show up before the 3 movie, so I did not include them now (they may be some of the flavor from PoA).. I do not think a set for 70$ can include a WW, the car and in addition a Shrieking Shack that fit with the great hall set, that would probably add 70$ more to the price Yes, thank you As long as Neville comes with a frog in a set. I think it is safe to call him Trevor The same for Errol, the last wave had a Great Grey Owl mould, so he is covered as well God job with the list!
  24. There was rumoured 2x dementors in the great hall, they where not there as we now know.. They could turn up in both the CMF and D2C I really hope the CMF has only one of Harry, Ron and Hermione, but you could be right
  25. I was expecting a comment about that from people sleeping in class It is obviously the 3 rumoured figs in the CMF I am talking about: Harry Potter – accessories include the Sorting Hat and a cape which could probably be the Cloak of Invisibility. Ron Weasley – accessories include a cape and that Chocolate Frog from the Hogwarts Express scene. Hermione Granger – accessories include cape, magic wand, and book with printing (perhaps her spell book). Off course Harry will be in every set most likely, Ron (and maybe Hermione) in several sets as well! That do not change the fact that they will almost certainly each have another version in the CMF, so that is way I included them in the list.. You should be glad it is not like Batman, then we would get 5 harry figs and 5 versions of other main figs that came in several sets also The question still remains; the sets ok (only from 1-2), but what about the CMF (could be only from 1-2) and the huge Hogwarts D2C (personally I have more doubts that it only have figs from 1-2)..
