Please describe him in excruciating detail!

Also, I suppose this means that the remaining golden figures will be in the D2C and polybag.

Also better quality Chess set picture leak and the chess pieces are brickbuilt

Does buildable Harry come with a black cape? Looks like he’s wearing something

I believe it's a massive trench coat outfit 

Wonder if we'll see the Quidditch set today? Can't wait, as it's the only set we know nothing about in terms of builds.

Shame the fawkes has the same build as hedwig. I think if he had something different about him i might have got him. And no flying fawkes figure, not happy.

Gold or similar to Chamber of secrets set?

The Hedwig set also just had a single jumper stud, but included a separate stand to attach to it. There's no reason this set couldn't be the same way.

Well, there are tiles adjacent to that single jumper on Hedwig so there's room for you to place the separate stand. In this case, the single stud jumper plate is elevated so a stand on top would look weird IMO. However, I trust that falconfan knows what he's talking about.

Can we assume that when Lego offically reveals the new sets they reveal everything (Execpt D2C and Advent)?
 

I think we can safely assume that they'll reveal everything that's been leaked thus far.  So the Quidditch set with Madam Hooch is still up in the air, and maybe something else, I can't remember.  But I fully believe we'll see the Quidditch set within the hour  and the set reveals by next week 

Wow a bunch of new leaks now.

Buildable figures: I really love them, there's something weirdly fun about large buildable minifigures. The fact that the wands also resemble the ones we get in the sets is just amazing. I don't think the cape piece looks good though. I'd rather they give us the original one that attaches to the neck. I always think it looks weird in people's custom figs and it still looks weird?

Chess set: This one disappoints me a bit compared to the leaked image. The fact the pieces can't be secured  is unfortunate, The chess pieces look good, but could've benefited from a bigger budget with actual minifig pieces to represent the bodies. I doubt Ron will fit on a horse if you remove the rider. I still like it enough to eventually buy it, but It'll probably not be one of the ones I get first.

Fawkes: This looks great, I loved the Hedwig build especially with the flying wings, which we get here too. It's also not one of the ones I'll get first, but I'll definitely get it. I don't the mini fawkes being the CMF one. I don't think they'd make a fawkes with wings spread for only 1 set (or 2 if they would've included it in CoS). The Hedwig with spread wings was one that they used a lot since it released so that's not a 'wasted' mould for LEGO.

I'm in love with this wave, I know there are some nay-sayers, but I love what we're getting. The amount of creativity show in this theme is amazing.

Fly lesson is out too!

To get back to the chess set for a bit there's just so many things wrong with it that I'm really wondering what the designer for this set was smoking. 

- Squares aren't square as they use 2 2x3's (I counted the studs)
- No studs on the squares to hold the chess pieces
- Chess pieces look like they'll fall over instantly
- Chess pieces are not to scale with the source material
- Chess pieces do not resemble the source material
- Ron doesn't seem to be able to ride the horse piece

So much wasted potential. 

@Guyon2002couldn't have been more right in explaining the August wave sets. Builds seem okay, but very polarising opinions.

I knew it!!  

Flying Lesson just leaked, with a very non-brickbuilt Remembrall.

Flying set looks great !

Yeah I share the same exact feelings. This and the chamber where our only chance of getting that mould and now this chance is wasted till the next remake. I hope the designer included at least the improvements of the flight mechanism that Jason Alleman presented in his Youtube video of the Hedwig set

One thing I just noticed - the color of Harry's spell on the box art is gold for the anniversary sets and blue for the others. That means Fawkes probably isn't coming with a golden figure.

A better picture of Polyjuice and Fluffy is part of that leak!!

Well at least one of the new Hogwarts sets has a good exterior  Figures are decent and I love the new Remembrall print, also like the 4 House flags. I'll definitely pick this up!

Also worth noting: NO HARRY!!! 

The Quidditch set is great, I love that build. Can't wait to see the interior. I think it would be better if we got one more minfigure tho, as simple as Harry himself.

It looks very much like 2018-2020 sets tbh.

Wonder if it connects to other anniversary sets.

Will the quidditch set connect to the other ones somehow?

Interestingly, the Flying Lesson doesn't include Harry. It's nice to get another Neville, even if he does still have the same face from 2018, with the unconscious alt.

Harry and Ron in the Polyjuice set have different face expressions, which very much implies that the alternate prints will be for Crabbe and Goyle.

So, in the end, Flying Lesson isn't some strange brickbuilt object. Luckily!

Mooooore mooooore! They could also leak that D2C set

This flying lesson set totally looks like a brick built remembral to me
