As long as it only ever comes in one set 😬

 

I bought multiple Expecto Patronum sets for the Dementors so I have a lot of those blue jacket torsos. 

I wish the new Clock Tower set came with more rock work. I would love if the soft reboot sets all came with a cliff.

Tbh I am so happy we are getting this version of trio minifigures with dirt on their torsos…it only shows us that ppl behind this theme can still care when it comes to new minifigure designs. These sort of battle damaged versions will be great for recreating some action scenes from POA, although I think there is a big chance we will get them again in Shrieking Shack set if there is gonna be one next year.

Just saw there’s a book with Diagon Alley Harry and a chocolate frog card coming soon. I think this is new news?

Not rly, I think it was mentioned here a long time ago ... or was it? Anyways I think no one rly cares coz that minifig is already in advent calendar and for cheap source of frog cards we have Hermione polybag :D

The Voldemort in that banner looks like the same stock photo from the graveyard set. I wouldn't read too much into it.

The way it was displayed made it look as if you could clearly see the card. Which would be an easy way of getting the ones you need. 
 

I’ve bought six Hermione polybags so far but because I have to buy them online I can’t check the card. But I love the little desk build so I’m probably going to get more.

Most of us are probably stuck buying the books online, too, which unfortunately doesn't solve the chocolate frog card selection problem. 

I have the 2011 Diagon Alley set. I would like to modify Gringotts bank so it is larger than the buildings in the most recent Diagon Alley set. Maybe add a third story. Has anyone done this? I’d like to see some ideas.

Try here:

there were a bunch of them, and then also search for 'Gringotts' on that page to see @Micmac's lovely entry lower down. (There's both two and three story versions so you can see what looks more in scale with your street. You might not think you need to see the smaller one, but it helps to check. A friend and I tried expanding the three broomsticks recently (because it was clearly larger, right?), but it ruined our Hogsmeade set up, throwing everything out of proportion, so back to the drawing board it went. It can be nice when people take some of the experimentation out of it for you, especially if you're going to be ordering parts.) And several people have also posted their instructions on rebrickable. 

New sets reveal tomorrow!!

They're not in the Australian or German lego S@Hs yet, although the new Creator Modular is on the site, so I don't know that we'll be seeing the other March releases (besides the suitcase) revealed today...  

But happy new year either way, everyone.

If you write the set numbers you'll see they're there, although theme and names aren't visible but that's no big deal

They technically shouldn’t be revealed for another 8ish hours or so based on other releases 

At the risk of being off topic, happy new year one and all! Looking forward to seeing what Lego had in store for us this year!

If the remaining March sets do get revealed today, that’ll be about three weeks sooner than expected, but I’m not complaining  What excites me the most is the interior of the hospital wing. Show us that promised bottle of Skele-gro!

Happy new year to all. Not really a lego comment but just watched the new HBO return to Hogwarts, It was so nice to see a lot of the old cast come back together and see them interact again. Its very well made and a little bit sad. I shed a tear or two at the end. I would recommend to all.

Aww, I can't wait to watch it. It's on in 6 hours here. I wish they would make some more films while they are all still willing. I actually thought they were going to announce something new (like a TV show, Cursed Child movie, etc.) today.

Usually when sets are added to the instructions page they'll be revealed the day after but considering the fact we've just had New Years and it's the weekend I'm guessing the reveal may just get carried over to next monday 

Weirdly they added the names to the instructions

Well, at least this confirms that it wasn't just a fluke and the reveals are still actually happening soon  I'm with @lego_guyon02, my money's on Monday 

Happy New Year all!

 

Who else is still collecting chocolate frog cards? 
I have yet to open a chess or Fluffy set or get the new Polybag but otherwise have opened up one of each of 2021 line, and so far I have 4 characters missing (I have also been lucky enough not to have more than one extra of the duplicates)

I was hoping they would carry them on into 2022 and even make some more character cards, I can think of 4 Characters seen on film which could be added to the range: Igor Karkaroff, Bathilda Bagshot, Gellert Grindelwald, Mykew Gregorovitch. And then of course there is Merlin who was a collectable card in the old PS1 game for PS.
It’s been fun collecting the 16 but I'm a bit sad to see it end after only 1 wave of sets

OMG the ending was so emotional. They need to make a one-off show about Hermione and Hagrid when they're older.

I think they were just made for the 20th Anniversary last year. Bricklink has them cheap. Or I am in the UK and have a lot of duplicates so tell me what you need and I'd be happy to send them you. :) 

There's a clearer photo of inside the Divination classroom and I think the Moments sets are weaker than last year's personally.

I can just imagine - an 8 or 12 part miniseries called Wizarding World: Vignettes, that centers on certain parts of the world, including where are they now.
