What scene is this Ginny from? With short legs she should have Gryffindor robes as well. Lack of PS Harry is weird, but the theory there's a second row is definitely valid. Yes the photographer does because he's short. As he works for the daily prophet maybe that's why we're getting the offices. Ginny is from the same Flourish and Blotts scene, as she's about to go into first year she hasn't gotten her robes yet. I guess they wanted an all Flourish and Blotts matching Harry, Ron, Hermione and Draco set of robes which is quite accurate to the scene.
lego_guyon02 Posted August 19, 2020 Posted August 19, 2020 Lucius reusing that incredibly generic and common villain face is just downright unacceptable

It makes sense that she isn't in her robes, but I feel like the pink is a bit too much... I don't remember her wearing pink in that scene, and even if she did, it wasn't that bright

Ironically, Lockhart does not match :D He is wearing blue robes in Flourish and Blott's, whereas in the set he has light purple(?) robes which (I guess) represent his sand red robes that are arguable more iconic.

They'd been going for so much accuracy and then blew it by putting Lockhart in the wrong coloured robes! :-( *snap* Edited August 19, 2020 by chris6507

Well, something that hardly anyone remembers is that his favour colour is lilac, and the robes fit in with that

It would make no sense whatsoever because they gave Florean Fortescue a new faceprint for crying out loud.

But I really doubt that Lego is that clever :D
chris6507 Posted August 19, 2020 Posted August 19, 2020 Anyone else notice the alleyway that i'm assuming is heading off the knockturn alley?
Yope Posted August 19, 2020 Posted August 19, 2020 Happy with the figs we're getting. Would have loved a Percy Weasley - I think this was the perfect opportunity to include him finally. Shame there's no Arthur or older students for WWW scenes. There has been hardly any discussion about the build! Things I've noticed from the pics: - Cobbled street outside which is excellent for display purposes - Different brightly coloured facades for each shop including a new window piece for F&B - Arch to Knockturn Alley next to WWW (hopefully a sign of things to come - Scribbulus has an upstairs so I assume we'll likely get multiple floors for each building - Baseplates look to be 16x32 as expected Can't wait for a full reveal!
lego_guyon02 Posted August 19, 2020 Posted August 19, 2020 Honestly as I look at these minifigures in more detail my disappointment keeps growing. Molly looks really bland without skirtprinting, Lucius face is way too generic, a severe lack of legprints and an overall just underwhelming amount of figures Obviously this set will be more about the build than the figures but that doesn't mean the figures should be this...... meh
Yope Posted August 19, 2020 Posted August 19, 2020 We're not getting a blacked out box design which is nice. Does anyone think the set might be microscale???
Seaber Posted August 19, 2020 Posted August 19, 2020 Sorry, have I read right that these Lockhart robes are not included?

It's 100% Microscale. They are a new type of microfigure that look like minifigures. They are too small to be able to print on the legs obviously! :-D
SupesBatsy Posted August 19, 2020 Posted August 19, 2020 Chances the (possible) second side of the box with all the other (potential) characters has another set of Harry/Ron/Hermione with maybe other shopkeepers?

You got the minifigs at least 36 minutes ago, RealGeronimo11 said: it's always annoying when they can take the time to photograph the top, but can't get the front, back, and sides. But maybe they will, and we just haven't seen it yet The leakers wants to get more views so they give us one picture at the time even if they have them all 14 figs is a bit underwhelming I must say when the last one had 12 We got at least one owl However the last D2C DA had 4 and I do not think it will beat that number unfortunately

I don't remember seeing a sticker for knockturn Alley so does that mean there's another sticker sheet
