Roebuck Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 Nothing new, but a person over on Instagram says he/she got the hands on a trade catalogue, with 5 normal HP sets (could still be some limited also) for release in June..No pictures, but the same set numbers as previous mentioned. I guess we will know more this time on Saturday
BrickBob Studpants Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 This is rather bad news actually since we now have no option other than relying on NYTF If the sets aren‘t on display there, we‘ll have to wait for official pictures now that it‘s confirmed that the catalogues don‘t show anything, not even preliminary sketches

So I am hopeful, but must admit a little disappointed if the do not see anything in two days time, anyway it will only be a temporary setback
DocStrange Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 We just got a couple of Endgame (and many other) leaks, so hopefully Harry Potter will be soon to follow!

Endgame sets release in April, HP sets release in June. I think we’ve still got some waiting to do before we get real HP leaks unless we get information from NYTF Edited February 14, 2019 by Balrogofmorgoth

If they aren't on display there we'll have to wait for quite some time
Sir Godric Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 What is the main reason why they let us waiting so long for pictures? Is it because they are frightened of copys from other producers or do they hope to make more cash with the customers if there is such a hype for harry potter sets and they let the fans wait for pictures? Its not the same with other sets. Last year nearly every shop in Austria and Germany was sold out with the harry potter products.

KristofBD Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 Ooooh nice!! If true that would be the first Advent calender I buy since the Kingdoms one!
Whovastron Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 I hope so, me and my girlfriend have been doing the calendars since 2016. The city one is just tiresome and the last couple Star Wars ones have been awful. Would be fresh to see one from this theme.
Huigberts Builds Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 This is a very good sign for the theme . I hope we'll get Christmas sweater Fred and George, only way to keep them apart
Balrogofmorgoth Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 I am taking this news with a huge grain of salt, but it would be fantastic if it proves true! It would certainly make a lot of sense and it would be sure to include some great exclusives. Very excited to see how this rumor plays out
Tariq j Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 If it’s true, then it sounds very exciting! And what’s great is that Christmas is always depicted in the films. So as others have said, we can expect a lot Christmas/Winter/Hogsmede versions of characters.
THELEGOBATMAN Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 That's great! A Wizarding World advent calendar is a fantastic idea. That's gonna be a must buy.
Sir Godric Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 If this is true for me its also a must buy. Thank's for the news and link.
spiderfan2000 Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 I hope there is an advent calendar, because that could feature some great characters and builds!
