Zepthire Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) 10 minutes ago, AdriWho said: I don't think Fudge could be included, he is 3 seconds in the scene and he is on his pajamas :/ I guess it could go either way considering how little he is in it but he is 'the' minister of magic during this part of the series so I'd like if he was included in a MoM set. And if they had him in his regular costume along with Percy, you'd also have the figures needed to recreate Dumbledore's escape scene from earlier in the movie. Edited April 28, 2020 by Zepthire

This is definitely not the case for villains (Palpy*, Maul*, Boba Fett, Jabba, Barbossa*, all the antagonists of The Lone Ranger, Saruman, Goblin King, Azog, Eli Mills, Ken Wheatley, Yellowjacket, Proxima Midnight, Quirrell, etc). Good guys on the other hand... Can‘t think of as many examples, but there definitely are a few (Haldir, 2011!Lupin, Vision*, Star-Lord*, Shuri*, John Arnold, Yoda, Luke, all of the Jedi that try to arrest the Senate). * temporary or fake-out deaths I think a lot of people are hung up on Cedric‘s exclusion from the Graveyard set. I think the minifig limit of that set and the fact that this exact version of Cedric was in the first CMF series serve as far better explanations IMO

RogueTwo Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) 12 minutes ago, Lego-Freak said: all of the Jedi that try to arrest the Senate). Okay, so here is the order in which I hope to buy the sets: WOULD LIKE TO PRE-ORDER: 1. Attack on The Burrow 2. Hogwarts Astronomy Tower 3. Diagon Alley (if it is available for preorder) NOT SURE YET 4. Privet Drive WAIT FOR A SALE 5. Forbidden Forest 6. Room of Requirement 7. [Ministry Battle/"I may have been wrong about the Chamber of Secrets"] MAY PASS ON 8. Buildable Hedwig By the way, is anyone actually excited about the Buildable Hedwig set? If you are, that's great, I just suspect it will hit clearance way sooner than the others. At least it's well-priced, unlike, say, D-O from Star Wars. Edited April 28, 2020 by RogueTwo
Balrogofmorgoth Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I’m confused. Is Diagon Alley not the $400 set now? These set numbers have been crazy since the beginning

These set numbers have been crazy since the beginning Diagon Alley is definitely the $400 set. Some numbers seem to have been changed either due to incorrect leaking or, more likely, shuffling and reassigning of numbers as other themes have been cancelled and/or delayed. EDIT: THELEGOBATMAN beat me to it. Edited April 28, 2020 by RogueTwo

Slave2Leia Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 OMG the AT is so amazing looking! I can’t wait to get it!
lego_guyon02 Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I LOVE THESE SETS Astronomy Tower Hermione is SO DETAILED!

topiku Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Just now, Guyon2002 said: SETS ARE LIVE CHECK BRICKSET OH MY GOD I have only seen the Burrow right now. Masterpiece 10/10 I love it so much
Balrogofmorgoth Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 These are amazing but I’m just going to say it: WAY too many reused inaccurate torsos and hairpieces. Molly's hairpiece is terrible, they 100% should have used the Hermione hairpiece. Harry and Ron use reused torsos from older sets hag don’t match the right scenes in these. That bothers me. that being said, the sets themselves look incredible, and Grawp looks so good!!!!
kirkwoodproductions Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 All looks so good (except Mrs Weasley. What is that hair?!?). Knew they'd reuse Claire's face for Ginny - i've been doing the same thing for my custom fig so at least I've got consistency

thenudeorganist Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Blimey, the builds look stunning! Burrow, AT and Privet Dr. look perfect. I'm not sure about Grawp and I'm a bit disappointed by Molly and Tonks... The RoR is also great.

Balrogofmorgoth Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I love butler Neville! And another Potions book!
RogueTwo Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Okay, having calmed down JUST ENOUGH TO COMMENT, I can objectively say that I hate Grawp and the buildable Hedwig. Then again, I hated Grawp in the movie and the book, so... Privet Drive is also a disappointment. I may have to wait for a sale. Room of Requirement, Burrow, and Astronomy Tower are among the best Harry Potter sets ever made, IMO.
