Seaber Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) Hullo, that's flying lesson Hooch! I like the look of her, hair is definitely better too and I like the gloves colour. Edited March 13, 2021 by Seaber
BrickBob Studpants Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Good to see the figures are completely pearl gold, much better than their yellow-headed Ninjago counterparts (except for Wu that is). That yellow-headed Harry from a while back luckily must‘ve been a misprint then
hoiharry Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 That is indeed her flying lesson outfit instead of the quidditch match one and I love it. The hairpiece also works quite well I think and it’s the first time we're getting it in light grey :D

Textorix Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Honestly I am quite happy that Hooch minifigure is completely different than bricktober one. Finaly we have something new about august wave, I hope we get even more.

lego_guyon02 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Didn't realise that was her flying lesson attire, does make her a lot better but I still prefer the 2018 figure over this one.

Good point So this basically confirms a flying lesson set I hope they don’t forget to include the Remembrall (GET IT?!) and use a printed trans-clear minifig head again. I have quite fond memories of the old one because I’ve always been a sucker for transparent parts and it was one of the first transparent head pieces I had proudly added to my collection back in the day Edited March 13, 2021 by Lego-Freak

chris6507 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 I already have two Madame Hooch's... Why do I still feel so excited about another one?

I like the look of her, hair is definitely better too and I like the gloves colour. As someone who loved to watch the comedy My Family when I was younger, Zoe Wanamaker's spiky hair was so cool to me back then. I feel like Hooch kind of got forgotten in the movies after PS so as much as I've got the Bricktober pack I'm glad to see her appear again. I think the hairpiece is great.
krimimimi Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 The Quirrell face is a downgrade. It isn't even just the retro print from 2001. And I think like the Hooch torso from 2010 better. I'm undecided about her hair and not thrilled about more Quidditch. Oh well. I do like that we're getting the Polyjuice scene and Hogsmeade. That's enough to carry me.

Maybe they decided to celebrate the 20th anniversary remaking all the 2001 minifigures. Not considering variants, Peeves, Chess Queen and Armor Statue, they were: Harry, Ron, Hermione, Malfoy, Dumbledore, Hagrid, Snape and Quirrel. Add Voldemort cause he's the main enemy and you have 9 golden minifigures for 9 sets. If that's the case I think Dumbledore could be in the 250 set. Edited March 13, 2021 by BrickMatit

Eventually, they accepted her demands and gave her a higher wage... but never included her in subsequent films, since she'd proven a pain to deal with. So she ended up getting far less for being Hooch than other cast members got who bided their time and got to see out the series. Having seen Hooch, I'll definitely be picking up this set. It's an improvement over the 2010 Hooch in every way imaginable, so I'm excited for it.
1234567892022 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 I love Hooch's outfit but so far I prefer the 2018 version's face. Seeing Quirrell, the golden figures came out better than I imagined. I would love if we got like a Hogwarts Grounds set with the training area!
