Wout Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 I was today at my local toyshop and the shopkeeper told when I saw the first Batman movie 2 CMF bags, that the second line will be a normal line and the third will be a Harry Potter line. So I think it's not longer a rumor. Quote

I have a feeling that this may be the line up for the D2C and somewhere it’s been mixed up. It’s not. Lego is actually being very generous here. Even though Hogwarts is most likely in December, they want to promote this theme hard. Just think half the cmf and d2c will be fantastic beasts and the other will be hart potter so it makes sense that they give us a big Harry Potter set with a lot of figures Quote

I've loved HP since my teacher read the book to my class at school before it was even well known and I've loved Lego for even longer. Add to that that my birthday is in August and this is like my biggest Lego birthday wish come true! ? Edited January 13, 2018 by BacktoBricks Quote

GryffindorResistance Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Amazing to hear. I'm so happy that after an originally odd first lineup of sets, we'll be getting the minifigures to back it up. And if the Great Hall really is that stacked with figures, I can only IMAGINE what will be in Hogwarts. My other thought is that that 14 figure lineup is for the UCS Hogwarts. Can anyone confirm this? Also, who is in the Ford Anglia set besides Harry and Ron? I'd find it wierd if both that and the Aragog set only have Harry and Ron. Quote

How would a retail site have the characters for half d2c anyway Quote
spiderfan2000 Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 14 minifigures in the Great Hall?! That sounds really good for a set at that price point. Hopefully the D2C will have just as good of a minifigure lineup too. I'm also hoping that the Ford Anglia/Whomping Willow set has more minifigures than just Harry and Ron. Quote

Yeah, according to the leaks there is 1 more figure in the Whomping Willow set. The only ones that have been around that three were Hermione, Pettigrew, Sirius Black and Lupin so probably one of them. Quote
KevinMD Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Looking forward to the grindel of grindelwald. Minifig-size brick built creatures sounds.. interesting. Quote

Maybe Hermione in her Year 3 outfit, to remake that scene before they go to the Shrieking Shack? I think it'll just be a way to get all three of them in casual outfits. Quote

Hopefully that's what it means by brickbuilt and not tiny little Dimensions-type beasts. Hopefully it comes with an easy to get Year 1(?) Newt in blue coat. Quote

If people want it they’ll buy it You must be middle class to be able to save up money for what I gather was an expensive set (don't know anything about Star Wars). If you can afford a D2C Hogwarts, then you must have a reasonable pile of money at your disposal. Quote
Captain Nemo Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 We all know Lego is expensive. But this is not the thread to debate what constitues “expensive”. Let’s talk about the sets themselves please. Quote

Dont get me wrong 500 is a decent amount of money. But in my experience people will shell out cash for what ever marvel,star wars etc thing they love, Just in my dorm building there is two ucs millennium falcon owners. So i dont thing lego will have an hard time to sell a big Hogwarts. Quote

spiderfan2000 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 I'm starting to think that the Whomping Willow set will have at least one other build besides the tree and the car, as I'm having trouble picturing the set being very large if those are the only two builds. Quote

Yes, but i think this is a argument to put less bricks. What will be the face of Great hall with 14 minifigs? i don't know. I please that the mantle will be the coat like custom coat we saw from customer . Quote
LegoFjotten Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Great hall with 14 minifigs for $90? That will be... interesting. Would be highly unusual considering (for example) a flagship SW set is around $150 with only 6-7 figs. Sounds more like a D2C lineup. If it turns out to be real it's awesome though, I'm more interested in the minifigs than the build anyway. Quote
Whovastron Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 It will suck if the D2C Hogwarts is really a December release (probably November for VIPs) especially if it connects to the Great Hall (which is the smaller piece count assumption is true makes a lot of sense). i really hoping to get Hogwarts for my other half’s birthday, maybe Christmas now!
