RogueTwo Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 As long as DA is released in September, I really don’t care about leaks anymore. The CMF reveal pretty much has to be this week or next, though.
lego_guyon02 Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Luckylegostore posted some pictures of the sides of the box, Lilly definetely has shoe and skirt printing Also, Luna indeed comes with that hairpiece

sebastian666 Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 The “Muggles Are Our Friends” poster / printed tile is making its rounds again on Instagram - @lego_fans_news_ claims it is from the new Diagon Alley set. I’m still not convinced that it’s real... What do you all think?
BacktoBricks Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 The person on IG who leaked the Ponda Baba and Dr Evazan has reposted a shot of that tile with Muggles Are Our Friends saying it is from DA. I know when it leaked months ago it was a rumoured CMF piece, but it got disbelieved for a couple of reasons, such as the art style, so what are people's thoughts about it now? I know the Nagini piece was slated as not real until it did actually come in the CMF.

I’m still not convinced that it’s real... What do you all think? Hmmm...that’s interesting. My instinct says real, but I’m going to say it’s fake, just based on the number of times I’ve been wrong this year.
Modal Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) Where would that piece be in the DA set? It looks pretty ugly not going to lie. Can’t put my finger on why I think that though Edited August 4, 2020 by Modal
Terrasher Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Does that print actually belong to a poster that's seen in any of the movies? If you google "muggles are your friends" you'll see the same "un-lego-fied" poster. It looks like fanart to me. Or is it official HP paraphernalia?

lego_guyon02 Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 First of all I'm not sure how and where that poster would fit in the set. Second the thing this is based off isn't even real, it's fanart

lego_guyon02 Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 I wonder if we'll get that UCS Dobby's Sock if we make enough drawings and posters of it
BrickBob Studpants Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 And it doesn‘t emulate the original design either since it‘s just blank minifigures instead of the more specific-looking characters on the fanart I hope it‘s not real

I feel you need to choose one or the other but not both The one time we've seen some thing like that was the Ultimate Millennium Falcon 75192. It had young Han, Leia, Chewie, 3PO and Finn, Rey and Old Han. But that was a $700 set aiming to be the biggest and best Lego ever made.
BrickBob Studpants Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Still no CMF reveal... Welp, doesn’t look the DA reveal is going to happen before the middle of August after all I‘m sure the reveal event would have been something special, but by putting this off until the very last minute, they’re basically asking for it to be leaked It’s like challenging a thunderstorm by swirling a metal rod around on an open field

And I love your thunderstorm analogy! Edited August 4, 2020 by RogueTwo

8fifty Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 I ask myself whether they have planned something very very special for the CMF and maybe together with DA - what else keeps them from just revealing the CMF series after it has already been leaked entirely? Not that I have hopes up for anything, I don't expect to see Diagon Alley before August 25.

I know it’s pathetic that I don’t want to wait 15 extra days to spend $400, but I was kind of counting on an early VIP release.

But I hope so too - it's not just about spending money, it's more about getting our hands on a beautifully designed Lego set ? Edited August 4, 2020 by 8fifty
Legopls Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 I was just now comparing the CMF series 2 Luna with her movie counterpart and I noticed in the movie she has plain purple pants. That got me wondering, wouldn’t it be a good idea to switch Luna’s legs with Lavender’s legs?
