I'm expecting a reuse as it does a good job representing Mr Ollivander. I do hope we'll get some legprinting so his coat continues on his legs

But leg printing would be great.

It’s one of those characters whose hair really doesn’t have a perfect match in LEGO so I’m fine with the new one they used. Although the Trolley Witch hair piece is another good option that arguably may look better than the Nearly Headless Nick hair piece. Funnily enough the Trolley Witch hairpiece also looks way better on Nick than the one he got as well

What if it’s referring to Diagon Alley and it’s Tom the Innkeeper meaning we’ll get the Leaky Cauldron or at least part of it?

Its rumored to be a £400 set it will probally have leaky cauldren in it the 2010 set had 3 building and was £133 so this one will likely have 6-7 building.
DNSNVN01 Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 After seeing the Slytherin robes and uniform in both the AT and the battle pack does anyone else think it would've been cool to have have a inquisitorial squad badge print on at least one of them. I know they're both based off of HBP but the battle pack draco didnt have to be. I love the map though and I plan on using it to recreate the scene where the umbridge, filch and the Slytherin surround the room of requirement when I get it

Intriguing, I might actually get this one, I never got Hogwarts because as much as I love the look of it, I couldn’t justify that price for something I couldn’t display

There is that too, but that wasn’t a killer for me, although personally I do tend to buy sets for their figures if I’m not a fan, so only 4 Minifigures in a set that expensive for me was a let down

Icebrick Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 That's understandable. I was just saying that they are important figures.

The point of the pack is to provide fans with an easy way to stock up on their house torso's, even such a small thing as an IS badge greatly reduces the usability of the torso if someone's planning on getting a ton of those packs.

KingNono who is the main leaked of this wave has stated that minifigure lovers will love this D2C as well as other licenced D2C's such as the lego death star which cost £410 had 26 minfigures included in the set.

Exactly. I see a lot of people getting disappointed because the figures in this pack aren’t super rare exciting figures but that’s the whole point. It’s meant for army building. It’s a generic student pack, which is exactly what people have been asking for. Just goes to show once again that there’s no pleasing some people

If someone's trying to get all figures those 4 will definetely be something nice (or awfull) but for me personally, as someone who even keeps FB and HP seperate, I'm completely fine with not having the Founders

Still it’s best to keep expectations lower than that. Personally, I’m expecting 10-15 figures. If it’s more than that, excellent, but I’d be very happy with 15. The more the merrier obviously
