Here you go : And here is a interview from the fan media days with the HP designers:

Golden figs er fine it can come with 10 of those and I could not care less

I agree, basically interested in minifigscale sets, however I will reserve my judgement until I see the set. The HP theme have several non minifigscale set that I ended up buying and I am sure this one will look good as well Chocolate frog cards is fine, but hope there is no minifigs at least if I decide not to buy it

My guess is bumper cars

I wonder if those in USA can buy the animals from B&P before August since the sets are not released there even if they are much earlier in Europe

Regarding that, is there anywhere that can be seen now or was it only possible to see live for some stupid reason?!

Yes that is right, most animals are are cheaper on B&P unless they come in small sets or several in sets

It is a Bateleur eagle so a reprint not a new mould, but it looks great You mean to buy them from B&P? I am sure they will pop up there, but expect to pay a lot for the them, since they are mostly the reason the sets are exspencive

OK, maybe I misunderstood then Fun for the monochrome collectors hope they get some figs in new colours

The kids on Instagram say it is a set with monochrome figs so nothing to do with CMF

"The connectors are there to match the Modulars. A couple of them look like New York brownstones so I figured an easy conversion into the law offices of Nelson and Murdock could be made. Also I thought it would annoy Jamie Berrard to see one of his beautiful modular buildings next to this 1960's concrete box so I had to do it. :D"

Looks like Daily Bugle has 2 white birds, a rat and a black spider from what I can see

Hermione is clearly the brains of the operation, Ron and Harry not so much Ron had around 500 cards and where focusing on the only 2 he was missing, he had 6 of Dumbledore, but could not remember the text so it it possible that the did not remember all the cards either As others have said he has a lot of older brothers and a big family so he probably got a lot from them. In addition chocolate frogs where probably not expensive so maybe he got one as candy some weekends, when he was visiting DA as a treat and for Christmas instead of a broom or a owl he probably got a knitted sweater and a chocolate frog or two

Well Harry did not have his card, but it do not mean that it did not exsist If people that want all the cards are so stupid that they think the only option is to buy more copies of the sets they already got then let them I am sure kids will swap them whit their friends, but we can just buy them of BL and would not surprise me if they turn up on B&P also, or just do like the kids and swap them with other collectors

Great news, have no interest in Marvel anyway Maybe it is a series with every fig has animals as accessory At least would not be surprised if one got a sheep or two..

Yes great to see that they have not forgotten about it I like that the cards are random like the ones from the books/films, hopefully we will get more series in the future

At least we will not get the benefit of this wave until 2023. What I mean is that if this wave sell like crazy because of the animals, Lego will not have time to make a new animal heavy 2022 wave because of that. However test groups and high sales for animals previously could still be enough for them to give us a lot of animals next year as well

Yes, but from what I have seen it is the only set with frogs. With all the focus on the chocolate frog cards they should really include at least the number of frogs as the set has cards

and a cat

I do not have any of them so could be wrong, but from what I can see on BL: New part From Dilophosaurus in 2019 From raptor 2012 From Dilophosaurus 2015 From Carnotaurus/Stygimoloch 2018

Looks like the new friends (TV show) set comes with a dog, hen and a small bird all in white, to bad they did not make a duck mould for it

Well they don't, yes they make some new pieces for a new dinosaur, but most of the parts they take from other dinosaurs. From what I can see from the dinosaurs that came last year: Ankylosaurus 12 parts 3 new Indominus rex 8 parts 2 new Gallimimus 8 parts 1 new Pteranodon 5 parts 0 new Ankylosaurus Baby 1 part 1 new Triceratops Baby 3 parts 1 new Velociraptor 8 parts 0 new Dinosaur Baby 1 part 0 new

The old elephant have 10 different parts (not counting the pin), of which 6 comes from dinosaurs/creatures made previously and 4 where made for the elephant. So if they where to make a similar elephant today with 10 different parts, they could probably use 2 parts already in production. However today the dinosaurs/creatures are much more specialised so they can not use any parts from them on the elephant, so then they would have to make 8 new moulds and that is not realistic to expect

They were made in a different time and consist of a lot of parts. Take the elephant it was made in a time that Lego did a lot of decisions that was not sustainable economically. It made good use of some dinosaur parts, but they had to make several new parts that cost a lot of money. Today they do not have any parts they could use except the trunk, so they would have to make even more parts to make a similar elephant with a lot of parts. So no wonder they made one with a solution of using only two new moulds, on the other side from a third mould that they did not use on the adult we got a completely new juvenile, so it is not all bad news is it For the Afols or teens that wanted new animals this subtheme is fantastic and one of the best of all time For kids in the age range 4-6 +/- a few years it is also great, since they never would have made it out in shelf's without passing a lot of kids tests in the development stage. For everyone else the sets probably holds little interest, the City line is for young kids so if you want a similar 18+ set buy a modular etc..

Do not know about the capes, but in general if you "trick" or even if the sales reps let you order a part that is not for sale, the order will be cancelled "down the line"
