April 18, 20168 yr I'm not sure how likely it'd be to get Harry Potter sets from this, but I really hope they do. I missed out on all of the Harry Potter stuff, as that was when I was into technic and was going through a mini dark ages of sorts. Given Newt Scamander went to Hogwarts until his expulsion, I can definitely see a Hogwarts, Hogwarts Express, and a Diagon Alley set happening. But I'd want a full-blown Hogwarts, with the great hall, clocktower, grand staircase tower, Gryffindor tower, and the classrooms. Maybe $250-$400, a full blown accurate facade of Hogwarts. And I don't care about interiors for scene heavy areas too much, we can do that ourselves with spare brick. Like for Diagon Alley: Only 4-5 shops there are actually seen in movie. The rest of them are just storefronts meant to fill out the scene. They could easily do some 4 deep facades clipped together with technic bricks, and get a lot more build for the brick.

Ron could have the Flying Ford Anglia but what could be Hermione's in the team pack? Maybe a buildable version of her bag that's bigger on the inside from Deathly Hallows but it wouldn't be the most exciting build.

April 19, 20168 yr amazingbricks, you seem to have the inside scoop on what's to come. Without giving too much away would you say that there is a good chance that we might see some re-issued Harry Potter sets next year? I'm new to the hobby and I totally missed out on Hogwarts and Diagon Alley the first time around. I believe that 2017 will mark the 20th anniversary of the first book. 2017 seems like a perfect time for Lego to capitalize on "Potter fever" that is sure to come after Fantastic Beasts is released during the holidays.
April 19, 20168 yr There is no possible word of Harry Potter sets or Fantastic Beasts sets next year that we know of! !

April 19, 20168 yr I went to a bookstore and saw something curious, an announcement for a new Harry Potter book called the Cursed child, give it a couple of years after the movie is made and you will see re releases or new figures from Hp line

April 19, 20168 yr Not that Lego is hurting financially, but I think it will be a huge missed opportunity if they don't market some potter themed sets to go along with the release of the fantastic beasts movie. But again, I'm not a marketing guy.

April 25, 20168 yr So far they've only done two packs but I think lego could benefit from doing three packs for certain films in places like hp where it matters most.

June 9, 20168 yr That hair just doesn't look right on Harry. Was kinda hoping they were updated in some way, but I guess not..
June 9, 20168 yr Wands look shorter at least. I missed out on these versions back in 2011 so I won't mind getting them though. But that hair...
June 9, 20168 yr Lego Dimensions packs are tremendously over-priced if you're only looking for the physical figures (as I would be), but that pack has nice builds too! Pretty neat. Looking forward to seeing the Fantastic Beasts one!
June 9, 20168 yr Disappointed this isn't a level pack. A level based on Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone with the voices from the film rather than the miming in Years 1-4 would have been great.
June 10, 20168 yr As much as I'd love a mini Hogwarts (different from the polybag that was released), too bad Voldy didn't come with a mini Basilisk or Nagini. That'd be fun.

Pretty neat. Looking forward to seeing the Fantastic Beasts one! Me too. Seeing Scamander in the game, I'm excited to see his figure. Likely going to pass on this HP one...although the Hogwarts Express is a neat little build.
