I’m definitely holding out hope for a third cmf next year with a group of figures tying into Fantastic Beasts - I feel like that’s honestly the most likely way to get some of the Crimes of Grindelwald characters

I think Pomfrey with Skelegro and Lockhart with the Cornish Pixies were picked by almost everyone who wrote a wishlist for S2. These would be brilliant as it would give us Lockhart in his gold/beige(?) robes and a new mould which is excellent for a CMF. Pomfrey with the Skele-Gro would be cool too. Pomfrey showed up early on in the film series, and again later on in HBP and DH-Part 2, so I think it's a matter of time before we get her. Especially as we are getting Sinistra (Astronomy lessons appear in the books and, it says to me that the team know about and are prepared to make the most minor professors, so it stands to reason they know about Pomfrey and are saving her for the appropriate time. I don't think you'd get away with putting Sinistra in a CMF as only the die-hard would recognize her/recognize the name from the books. Just think this time last year we had no Professor Sprout who actually appeared in less films, now we have two. 43 minutes ago, Darth Shadowthrone said: I’m definitely holding out hope for a third cmf next year with a group of figures tying into Fantastic Beasts - I feel like that’s honestly the most likely way to get some of the Crimes of Grindelwald characters From Crimes of Grindelwald, I'd really just be happy with a young Albus Dumbledore, although of course you have some side characters like Nagini, Theseus, Leta, Yusuf and Nicolas Flamel, who has the added bonus of being rather important in the main series. Actually I'm surprised they made the carriage from CoG, and included Picquery of all people, but didn't do anything with young Dumbledore.

If it’s 16 (or more) again, I wouldn’t mind them inserting 4 FB characters. If it’s 12 as the current series (plural), I’d rather they continue to ignore it

There's more than enough space for a few of them if they just stop forcefeeding us Luna, Neville and Dumbledore variants

Yeah, add Rita Skeeter, Igor Karkaroff, Narcissa Mafoy, Percy, Bill and we have almost all major characters.

Also the Malfoy Manor/final battle I think she has dungarees on. They could have like Dobby's Grave as an accessory, not sure it would go down well haha! EDIT: Looked it up and there's several casual Luna looks we haven't got, none that are super memorable. But at least 2 from OoTP (Thestrals/Ministry) and 2 from DH (Malfoy Manor/Battle of Hogwarts). They have options. Neville also his OoTP look they haven't done (blue stripey tank top), could pair it with the Mimbulus Mimbletonia. If they do a Wedding Set they might want to complement it in the CMF with matching figs, sort of like the Ginny Slug Club dress minifig. Might be a way of giving us wedding Xenophilius and Luna, or the Weasley Clan. I think we're gonna see Dumbledore in every CMF, new fans are going to want to see the characters they know each year and we'll probably get some niche choice too, like Pomfrey or Percy. Not sure what Dumbledore outfits are left, maybe his Kings Cross look or something to do with his scarred hand (a grey hand?) and some sort of flame diorama from the Cave?

If it’s 12 as the current series (plural), I’d rather they continue to ignore it I mean the first series had a standard 16 for Harry Potter and then an extra 6 tacked on for Fantastic Beasts so I can the see the same thing again. Let’s say 12 figures for Harry Potter (if that truly is the norm) and then an extra 4/6 for Fantastic Beasts so 16 / 18 figures overall. In an ideal world (for me ) the 4 Fantastic Beasts figures would be: COG Newt with recoloured Niffler, Leta Lestrange, Nagani and Nicholas Flammel. Obviously I’d prefer young Dumbledore to Newt but Lego probably feel oblige to include him as the title character

Newt, Tina, Queenie, Jacob, Credence, Leta, Theseus, Grindelwald, Dumbledore, Nicolas Flamel, Nagini, Yusuf. From a design perspective that's a lot of three piece suits so they probably wouldn't do that, interesting to think about though. Perhaps they'll revisit the film one day.
yousif6224 Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 realistically, what's the probability of another Wizarding world cmf since I can't think of a licensed cmf getting a third series from the past?
Brick Clicker Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Unfortunately Lego looks like it won't be budging from 12 figs a series now with there reasoning for making the boxes now have 36 packs instead of 60. 12 seems to be this "perfect" number they won't go away from and with more series like Vidiyo and Vidiyo series 2 in October coming it stops there from being too many... but can you ever have too many minifigs

Some people had the idea of Newt being his school-robes self with a bowtruckle as accessory, great way to get Hufflepuff colours!
