  1. I will say, regardless of how likely those earlier leaks such as Maleficent and Simba are, that 2024 is the 30th anniversary of Lion King.
  2. There are more changes than I thought! Glad I didn't get the original. More archways, may be a spinning dance floor for Cinderella and her Prince Charming, and the pearl blue instead of dark blue looks nice as well.
  3. My castle arrived on Saturday (but I was out of town until today). The box is in pristine condition due to how they packed it! I just finished reading the information at the beginning of the instructions and am already in love.
  4. Oh sorry, that I didn't know. I thought it went live with the Castle debut. Sorry! Oh sorry, that I didn't know. I thought it went live with the Castle debut. Sorry!
  5. Me too! I didn't feel the need to wait till a minute past midnight since I already have my Forest Hideout.
  6. Correct. I live in Central Time, so I get on around 11 pm or just after.
  7. Ginny with Sirus' Rescue is a little odd, but I'm happy we are getting this set...especially since we are also getting an updated Shrieking Shack. The original shack was one of my first 3 LEGO sets, but it is definitely deserving of an update. I wonder if the $120 set isn't being revealed yet because it has to do with Secrets of Dumbledore?
  8. I definitely agree, good odds on the Buildable Niffler and the Shrieking Shack. I missed the ship the first time and would be super excited by that as well.
  9. I'm just excited for the potential Shrieking Shack. Anything else will be gravy.
  10. Promobricks is releasing the list!
  11. Based on an Instagram post, I'm betting tomorrow will be the posting for the Boutique Hotel, which is supposed to be an homage to other modulars. Guest rooms, art gallery, lobby, terrace, and more.
  12. I would love that to be true. I would also love some news about a new cool, winter village set to help beat that ol' August heat! Ha Ha, right there with you, Robert8!
  13. Just to head off rumors, according to this article, the golden minifigure trio with the chocolate frog packaging is actually a gift with purchase set premiering with the Hogwarts Icons set. HOWEVER, a picture on the back of the box shows the golden minifigures, so I don't think this is true.
  14. While I traditionally get more minifig scale sets, this Hogwarts Icons set reminds me of a really cool build I would see on LEGO Masters...except it's something you can actually purchase. I don't find the items disjointed at all...the items are all very typical items Harry would own all in a single sculpture.
  15. It is Harry's birthday today. It would be a good day for an announcement but probably still not yet. Sigh.
  16. I think he was referring to the rumor there is going to be a Disney+ Star Wars Collectible Minifig series coming out late this year as well.
  17. Well isn't that some interesting wording.
  18. Farmer Donald leaked!
  19. Yep, my current best guess is buildable house mascots in some form. Only time will tell!
  20. And with his announcement, Luigi is up for preorder. Double VIP points!
  21. Thanks! I've been looking forward to it for about a year now! :-) Thank you!
  22. Thank you!
  23. Today, I received the Astronomy Tower as a birthday present. I think this build will nicely conclude my minifigure Hogwarts. And as neat as the CoS Hogwarts and attaching sets are, I think I'm good focusing on the Hogsmeade and Chess sets for the Harry Potter summer wave. And then we'll see what 2022 brings. :-)
  24. Luigi has always been my favorite Mario character, going all the way back to 1986. Tomorrow (the 19th) is my birthday. LEGO, make it happen. :-D
  25. I am SUPER excited about the chess set and will be preordering it. Yes, the pieces might fall over easier than if on a stud, but then again, it's just like an ACTUAL chess set. I think it has high value for what all is included in the set. And I'm even more excited about Hogsmeade than I was when hearing about the set and seeing preliminary. It will go well with my existing Shrieking Shack, and then can join my Winter Village landscape around the holidays. I love the CoS Hogwarts, but I am...OK, not getting it. I'll consider my current minifigure Hogwarts complete with the Astronomy Tower, and with that and the microscale Hogwarts, that particular itch has been well scratched....for now.
