Would they make it from the ground up including all the new designs for characters, moulds, Hogwarts' new colour palette (grey roofs) etc. I'm sorry if this sort of post doesn't belong here but I've heard a few other people mention remaking the game on this forum already so I thought it might be okay. I so hope they re-make the games with all new designs and TT's improvements! I have a feeling they will. Edited March 25, 2020 by UKFan922

Out of The Dobby Greyback Luna Bellatrix Centaur and the cmf guys who do you think is best and worst revealed I certainly hope that the worst is :D The CMF figures especially were great and I'm optimistic that the remaining seven will be as impressive. I'm a bit nervous though about the other minifigures included in the sets because of the disappointing Bellatrix. I'm hoping for new faceprints.
Huigberts Builds Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Wow the owl looks even better in the clearer image. I love the wings. 1 minute ago, gryffindorbrickkid said: Out of The Dobby Greyback Luna Bellatrix Centaur and the cmf guys who do you think is best and worst revealed Worst: Dobby, he just reuses the cmf torso and the smile looks creepy. Best: Dumbledore, love the new hair/hat combo and the beard in white. And he of course comes with the beautiful Fawkes.

Perhaps when the fantastic beasts movies get finished. Who knows. I think the Dobby is okay. He's inclusion is disappointing (because of no Fred&George) but the figure itself is fine. There is no reason for a new torso print and the faceprint might be better when we get a proper look at the figure. And if the figure disappoints, it can easily be replaced by the one from the CMF. Bellatrix, however, is essentially worse than her 10-year-old variant and doesn't even use the new faceprint coming in the CMF. But yeah, we should remain optimistic and certainly afford to get hyped for the remaining seven CMF entries because the nine we've seen so far look fantastic. Edited March 25, 2020 by thenudeorganist

Not interested in those 2 so I'd love it if Hedwig (or a recolor of the same mold) came with the AT As always I hope for more owls and definitely in other colours since the snowy owl is not that useful outside HP and even in HP Hedwig is really rare compared to the other owl species

THELEGOBATMAN Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Oh man, that Hediwg is fantastic. I hope they'll use this mould in CMF tho.

We don’t know why, but they don’t reuse faces from the CMF figures, which has also been an issue for some of last year’s minifigs I can’t be laziness though, since they specifically created a new faceprint for the calendar version of Flitwick. So there has to be something in the production process that prevents them from repurposing CMF face prints. Either way, call me crazy, but I prefer the Mantis face print over the 2010 one. The best one is definitely the CMF one though, without a doubt

Out of The Dobby Greyback Luna Bellatrix Centaur and the cmf guys who do you think is best and worst revealed The thing is though it is most likely to come in those sets though it is practically the old one with the mantis / poison ivy head The worst one is definitely (for me) Bellatrix. Reused face and no skirt printing. That wouldn't be a problem if the last one didn't have both an exclusive face and skirt printing. This feels like a downgrade (although the torso print is better). I would also like them to finally use dark brown hair, as she clearly doesn't have black hair.

Similair situation to Harry, both have dark brown hair in the movies but black hair in the books. Though Bellatrix's hair is much closer to being black than Harry's
Tariq j Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 The Owl looks amazing. It’s a shame about the Bellatrix figure since the lack of printing let’s down what is otherwise an excellent figure. The clearer picture of Fawkes looks good. 2 hours ago, Guyon2002 said: Really hope it doesn't come just with the Hedwig set and possibly Privet Drive.

Diagon Alley I imagine could have quite a few.

Though Bellatrix's hair is much closer to being black than Harry's It would be hard to change Harry's hair because he would look weird, for all those year we have been getting black haired Harry and it would be hard to accept the change. But Bellatrix, on the other hand, is not so iconic (in terms of character and minifig), so it wouldn't really look weird but improved.
Bugbot20082 Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 How many outfits does Igor have in the movies? I was originally against the idea of him in the CMF as it would rob something from a set of the ship, but thinking about it he has quite a few different looks so multiple versions are possible: Arrival: thick white coat, gold staff, hat Lake task: thick black coat, hat Yule Ball: white outfit, no hat Everyday indoor clothes: black outfit, no hat Which one would people prefer in CMF, Ship, Advent Callander Etc ?

I think that his white thick coat is the most interesting one. It would probably come with the ship but I would like it to be in the CMF since I would probably not purchase the ship. The yule ball variant could be in the calendar. Although, I think we will get two variants of him at most.
Brickity Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Same issue with Hermione She has a light brown hair that goes even lighter throughout the movies, but the regular brown is the color they’ve always used for her I guess.

Balrogofmorgoth Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Btw I’m not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but I noticed that one of the Frozen sets has a trans blue horse that could work pretty well for Ginny’s Patronus
