doclord Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 That being said, has there been any mention on how (or if) the astronomy tower is meant to connect with the other sets? Are we going to get closer to a "boxed in" Hogwarts playset?

I liked the previous one but we really need trans green flames this time, that's one of the most important details of the burrow. The 2010 one was pretty good, but you could barely even put your fingers inside the rooms. 47 minutes ago, Accio Lego said: - double sided faces for Arthur and Molly, the poor 2010 versions had to stay cheerily smiling through the destruction of their home because lego sank all the minifigure budget for the set into Bellatrix and Greyback LMAO. Molly was awesome, I'm worried they pull a Bellatrix on her too :( (No leg/skirt printing and recycled face) 47 minutes ago, Accio Lego said: - Ginny in her bathrobe - seriously lego, if you’re going to insist on recreating this ridiculous scene the movie wasted several minutes and tons of its budget on despite it being nowhere in the books, then you better be prepared to go full throttle Touché! Plus, they will still owe us several Ginnys anyway So dear LEGO, don't even think of skipping any of her variants Edited March 26, 2020 by Otherworld

If Lego doesn't deliver, the old figure is thankfully still very good looking. I think that the only thing that would improve it, would be the newer film 1&2 Hermione hairpiece in orange.

They should let her previous mold die, if it’s not already dead..

Sometimes "The dead speak!" Reports have come in from Denmark. Somehow.... Hermione's hair has returned. Ok I'll stop. The old hair seems just fine and still meets today's standards, if LEGO feels like resurrecting it. With the wide variety of hair pieces now, it always feels unsettling to me when two characters in the same property have the exact same hair.
deskp Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 the new hairpiece is georgeous and it fits Molly perfectly, such an upgrade!

Marvelous Spidey Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 I think the big change I'd like to see from a new Burrow set would be making it a little wider. The old one was ridiculously cramped, especially on the upper levels. If they were to keep it about the same size though, I could see them expanding the area where they fought or adding Arthur's shed. Either of those could account for the higher price.

I really hope that they expand the building itself and not the fighting area. The whole scene is more or less garbage and I hope they don't use all those precious pieces on some play features for the fight scene. :D

Legoniche Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 “A father-son relationship is important” perhaps it’s referring to Hermione’s dad? He played a big role in the book in the battle of hogwarts, so it would make sense, he’s one of the main father like figures to Harry too. I reckon it could likely be him in the CMF.

He wasn't in the battle of Hogwarts, right? His memory was wiped earlier by Hermione to protect them from Death Eaters. Her parents were both Muggles.

No offense, but that’s probably the worst possible choice for a CMF spot out of all the characters the WW has to offer. He’s just a boring, regular muggle. What’s his accessory?
