Off topic, but anyone know what happened to Falconfan? He hasn't been active on his Instagram for a month. Was my go to for lego leaks

It looks…incoherent? Overly busy and messy. No single part in the leaked image looks correct to me, which is disappointing as it was my most hyped set since Rivendell. is there some new wave of LEGO designers, because after this and the medieval market I’m starting to feel a severe quality drop in official set designs

Looks off to me, almost as if it's a MOC. I remember seeing a set from a LEGO competitor a few weeks ago that I swore was the Medieval market based on how legit it looked, and somehow the actual set looks significantly worse.

Does 1732 pieces feel a bit small for a $220 set? Maybe I'm overthinking it, but for the "biggest most detailed Hogwarts ever" is that a lot of pieces for the Great Hall, rock base, and the grand staircase?

It's almost insane how much he complains now, it's such a negative vibe I can't imagine holding in that anger so much for something your career is based on. And then he wonders why he doesn't get invited to LEGO things, like dude who would want to hang out with someone who constantly shits on you.

Does anyone have Rivendell in Stud.io?

Hey everyone, had a quick question about Rivendell expansions. I've seen two big expansions on Rebrickable, one that enhances the rocky base of the set, and then one that adds more to the actual building. I was wondering if anyone had more MOCs that build upon the Rivendell set? Specifically, I would love to see someone expand on the waterfall on the right side.

The sorting hat being able to talk, that I did not expect. Has any other LEGO had a talking feature before? I guess the Mario figure?

Was hoping for something more line with the Lego Ideas Night at the Musuem entries, especially in architecture and color, but I'm sure they wanted to do a new color that wasn't similar to the police station. At least it's better than the Jazz Club, which in my opinion is the ugliest modular ever created by far. I think the museum will look really nice with the Parisian Restaurant.

It looks like the first attempt to expand the Hogwarts and Grounds architecture set has arrived. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-158172/JL.Bricks/wizard-castle-and-grounds-expansion/#details It's hard to say how well it accomplishes that without seeing them together, but I look forward to seeing more attempts until we can get to the "definitive" MOC expansion

This would cost, what, $800? The whole reason this set is being made is because they want to reasonably make as much as a Hogwarts castle in one set as they can. If they added another half to it to include the clock tower/Hagrid's hut/Quidditch/etc, it would be closer to $250-300, which would then be pointless, as the $170 price point makes it approachable for the large market that cannot afford the $400 version. They are both for two different markets. That being said, I'm with you in that I look forward to see someone complete the set like the 2018 MOC. I will definitely add on to it.

It looks really great imo, definitely the best HP set of the year so far. I hope someone adds an expansion to the back that includes the Quidditich pitch, Hagrids hut, etc. Should be pretty easy to do.

Damn the only two I really want to see are micro scale Hogwarts and Gringotts.

Man seeing the hype for a new Ninjago City build makes me miss having all the other sets, but I wouldn't have had room for another modular anyway. I will miss how amazing the building experience for them is though.

Not only remaking WWW but it will be an inferior version in piece count. That an yet another Hogwarts Express. What a waste of space. At least I’m one of the few here who is excited for the micro scale Hogwarts + grounds.
