Here’s hoping for the next wave as she had a more prominent role in the later movies/books! We did https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Minifigure-Harry-Potter-WEASLEY/dp/B0046DVECA

The silver mask versions are much more common overall, unless you want to depict Voldy’s army during the First Wizarding War, where they presumably wore the same costume as in GoF (where else would it be from?) As for the set idea itself: It’s not that I’d oppose a set like that, it’s more that they’ve plenty of other material to cover before they’d ever release a set based on the Quidditch World Cup scene. It’s probably a bit too.... niche *ba-dum-dish* Good one ? but yes I agree, very low priority, a quidditch krum at some point would be interesting tho, perhaps in a CMF

Bricking_it Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 Smyth's have a Lego Harry Potter event instore on the bank holiday Saturday. Apparently you'll get a polybag but it's supposedly the same one as last time - Journey to Hogwarts.

They usually have a bit of a sale on that Lego range too but this is just pure speculation at this point.
DeCommander96 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 Do we know if there are more sets coming next year? Personally, I'd like to see a dursley house set with the dursleys. I think that could be fun

As we have speculated before it's mostly likely for them to either fill in gaps from movies 1-4 or be based on movies 5-6, though we've pretty much done all the speculating we can so restarting the exact same discussion is pretty pointless

There are three, one of which is confirmed to be based on DC Superheroes and another one is a normal CMF (not confirmed but we get one every year so that's pretty much a given).

I definitely expect a second series very soon, but I worry they might hold out for the release of the next Fantastic Beasts film in 2021.

Yeah me too, the worst thing about it all would be that we have to wait for one of the new films that's probably going to sit somewhere between bad and mediocre. Even though Harry Potter can easily take on a CMF on it's own (and it's not like they have to wait for more sourcematerial to make CoG figures)

I hope and think the next move will be great! The first one was excellent, but the second tried to put in to many details, I am sure they have learned from that mistake Lego may make one this year or wait for the next movie, I would say it is 50-50 now Edited August 11, 2019 by Roebuck

We do have GoG Grindelwald and Picquery but I must say I really want a Grindelwald figure in the CMF because we need to get a screen-acurate figure for him, including a new spiky hair piece and moustache printing

terryfay1983 Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 So i been outta touch with lego for the last year while setting up my business, and seen the new Harry potter sets are out, my wife is a big fan and its coming up to our 2nd wedding anniversary...ive just come across the Diagon Alley (40289) How comes this small set is over 60quid? where was it a promo for?

But I will get seriously pissed off if the CMF contains yet another Newt or Jacob. The best candidates for those 6 figures would be: Grindelwald, Vinda Rosier, Youngledore, Yusuf Kama, Theseus Scamander, Leta Lestrange, Nicholas Flamel and Nagini. Though some of these could be included in potential FB sets for either the second or third movie 4 minutes ago, terryfay1983 said: So i been outta touch with lego for the last year while setting up my business, and seen the new Harry potter sets are out, my wife is a big fan and its coming up to our 2nd wedding anniversary...ive just come across the Diagon Alley (40289) How comes this small set is over 60quid? where was it a promo for? It was a GWP a while ago around the time the big Hogwarts D2C came out, but as it's a GWP they didn't produce that much of them so there is only a limited quantity of them out there

I must say I disagree, I think he needs a new mold (which is why he's perfect for a CMF). Probably something similair to Zane's hairpiece from the Ninjago Movie but more spiky and slicked back.
