Look at the bow tie I thought so at first too but take another look at the minifig. It’s a green striped jacket with a tan vest. Arthur is wearing a solid green jacket here with a green striped vest. Definitely not the same costume. Also, Arthur has a proper modern bow tie on here, not an old fashioned one. Edited August 17, 2020 by sebastian666

Look at the bow tie I’m not sure if you’re joking, but it’s 100% not the same, as pointed out above, the jacket on the figure is pinstriped, that is just plan, although it also doesn’t match the photographer 100% as his jacket is checked, not striped, but that’s the closest imo
Metanoios Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Could be the resolution, which is not great in the Burrow pic. Here's another Arthur costume (however with a tie, not a bow tie, but the pin stripes on dark green) https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d1/60/40/d16040f04ddc101de96f45062f4ebb0c.jpg You are right it could also be the photographer but then the head should have visible beard printing (which it has not). Or we get a completely new hat, hair + beard mould

LegoFjotten Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Looks more like the photographer than Arthur to me. Doesn't matter much, whoever it is that is a nice looking torso. It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine.
YetiZombie Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Regardless, why would someone only leak the torso
Holden Brickfield Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Just now, Jinzol said: Barnabas Cuffe ? Just about to comment that one, since someone on IG offered that possibility. Ahhhhhhh so now there are three different options

CLK143 Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Barnabus Cuffe makes sense as he runs the Daily Prophet

Huigberts Builds Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 I have no idea who this torso belongs to. I've just watched every Diagon Alley scene from all the movies and I can't find a single person in that exact outfit. Many similar looking ones though. Tons of background characters were the tie just doesn't quite match. No leaky cauldron guests. Ollivander has the outfit in totally different colours. Burkes has one similar but in black. The photographer has a different pattern, not to forget he would most likely be using the short legs rather than the pictured long or mid ones. Might be a mix match from several of Arthur's outfits though, but I don't think he ever had this exact combination. Either way, new theory, we're getting exactly 1 piece leaked every day until we've got the full set revealed. Only a little over 15 years to go
Brick Clicker Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Think someone has this set in hand and is building it and taking pics of the figures. Just hoping it leaks soon...
YetiZombie Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Could just be a random wizard? Or an employee of one of the shops?
BacktoBricks Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Florean is quite obscure, but if we are getting figures of people such as Barnabus Cuffe or the photographer then I hope it's a sign that the minifigure count might exceed our expectations.
YetiZombie Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Also, just a sidenote - despite a lot of leakers claiming so much and pretending like they've had the inside scoop, mini_legogo has quietly given us 2.5 minifigure leaks for the set without any BS. If they're reading this, thank you!

Hermione wouldn't settle for a measly "exceeds expectations". It should be an "outstanding" minifigure line-up

If they're reading this, thank you! THIS!!! I was just thinking the same thing. God bless mini_legogo. This is the only “leaker” that has given us any solid content from the Diagon Alley set. If they had a patreon, I’d give them a little thank you gift.

Modal Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Who leaked the sticker sheet? Imagine how we would feel without mini_legogo saving us from this void of information

I wonder if TLG went for a simplified, clean, "straight" look for the buildings, or if they managed to capture all the crooked windows. I was wondering this! Would be even cooler to get Jim Kay’s illustrated edition depiction but obviously that wouldn’t happen as it’s based on the films. Hopefully with the Burrow, it can be a little bit crooked at least.

As long as it’s not as flat and straight as the pop-up book someone posted earlier. I don’t need like extreme crookedness, but the street needs to have character!
