Wizarding World 2022 - Rumors & Discussion

[Yope]

I'm not sure I'm mentally prepared for this.  Deathly Hallows sets raise a lot of possibilities for new characters e.g. Narcissa/Mundungus/Aberforth/Bathilda Bagshot/Bill Weasley/Rufus Scrimgeor/many Death eaters etc.

Not too mention new locations like Forest of Dean, Godric's Hollow, Gringotts... 

[mark1991t]

The title says 'set', not 'sets', so I think there's just 1 DH set.

[Textorix]

I mean we already got one this year so it's not like something mindblowing.

[Whovastron]

I’m predicting a Hagrid’s bike. It’s like the only thing in the advent calendar that doesn’t have a set (well, prophecy room too but oh well, it’s a perfect set to make)

Considering a lot of people is waiting for Gringotts and after Bessa's words, this would be a master troll set!

I'm sure no one is waiting for Gringotts to be revealed now considering we expect it to be D2C set (which we usually don't know until few months before release).... if Gringotts was revealed to be a downscaled playset that would hurt a lot :D

I've read just now... what revelations are we expecting? 2023 regular wave numbers and pieces?

Possibly, or maybe set names and piece counts for the half dozen sets we’re expecting to come in March. I’m inclined the think the latter since we haven’t gotten any 2HY news yet but the names/content of several Star Wars 1HY sets were recently leaked. 

[Textorix]

I hope no more moments books... as AFOL I find them kinda useless so I only buy minifigures from them, good for kids tho but I think we kinda had enough of that.

Thanks, that would be interesting.

If they want to do something similar to moments sets they should do four sets of the common rooms, Hell make each a model that can be Bedroom or Common Area, Give us less common students in these, boom 4 ~$30 sets. There is absolutely enough variety in the House locations to make 4 sets that feel unique.

[Textorix]

Omg they put 2nd task set from 2005 on thumbnail.... fingers crossed for the remake

[mark1991t]

The thumbnail now shows Harry in his DH2-battle costume with a elderwand-piece and a piece for ravenclaw diadeem + what above was set.

DH based Room of requirement and 2nd task set!!! 

Edited August 22, 2022 by Textorix

[mark1991t]

- Housebanner instead of books. Playsets that could open up somehow. 4 sets.

- Room of requirement set around DH2 with fire.

- Lake task GoF.

[Textorix]

So basically just 2 new sets but really good ones :D

[Metanoios]

Excited for the new Grindylow mould in the Lake task set along with the sleeping versions of Ron and Hermione, an updated Merpeople figure and an all new Krum! The fiendfyre snake in the DH2 Room of requirement will probably be a recolour of some of the basilisk parts or will be entirely brick-built (Promobricks only mentioned the inclusion of the fiendfyre, not how it will be integrated)

The next part is speculation by me and not from the Promobricks news: I think the House banners could include prefect robes for each house or the house ghosts instead of the teachers this time

Edited August 22, 2022 by Metanoios

[spiderfan2000]

Hopefully the banner sets will include the house ghosts.

I'm a bit disappointed that the Lake Task set doesn't include all the champions, especially after the Dragon Task set was able to do so.  I suppose we could still get Lake Task variants of Cedric and Fleur if they do a Durmstrang Ship or another CMF series.

The Room of Requirement should get us our first Blaise Zabini figure.  Not sure how the Fiendfyre will be incorporated.  I wonder if the Vanishing Cabinet will be included.

[RODDY]

IT’S FINALLY HAPPENING, SECOND TASK LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 

[Robert8]

I wonder if they'll use a recolor of the vidiyo mermaid tail

We're they trying to go for scales... or an edible ice scream waffle cone

[THELEGOBATMAN]

That sounds so good 

The banners definitely sound intriguing, great to hear three minfigs are included.

Finally we're getting The Second Task, we've been waiting a long time for that one. I might consider buying it, but it depends on the execution.

As for Room of Requirements... OH MY GOD FINALLY A RELATIVELY CHEAP DEATHLY HALLOWS SET. So excited, I will buy it on Day One.

[Ferder]

Though I would prefer that they were just regular castle modules, the House Banner sets will be very useful for building Common Room MOCS.

[BrickBob Studpants]

This sounds great!!

• Finally a proper DH part 2 set! Not what I would‘ve picked, but it‘s a good scene  
• YES. The second task is long overdue! That new grindylow sounds amazing
• Not sure what to expect from the new gimmick sets. Hopefully you guys are right and they include the house ghosts

[Legoman123]

Are we expecting the room of requirement to connect to the castle?

 

every time we get new reveals for HP sets I’m always hoping for common rooms and dorms.
