I'm not a DH expert, preferring the first part of the serie, but I think that some interesting stuff could be done:

1) I know this would be complicated, due to how Hagrid minifigure is, but Escape with the motorbike could be a nice little set (without Hedwig, so no killing)

2) Wedding at The Burrow, difficult mostly due to the amount of minifigures and pieces that you have to put inside, but you can make it simpler with only the Wedding Pavilion;

3) Incursion at the Ministery;

4) Godric's Hollow Cemetery;

5) Snatchers' attack to the Tent;

6) Gringott; even just the underground scene with the dragon;

7) Final battle in the courtyard;

Just the first ideas I can think about while eating

I do desperately want Hagrids bike, they could even make it Philosphers Stone themed if they really wanted to. But having a cheap set with Harry, Hagrid, a death eater and maybe Voldemort would be awesome

Yeah, that's what I imagine when thinking about an Escape with the motorbike set.

I’m really just interested in the DH minifigures; there’re so many that we’ve never gotten. Besides the different outfit variations for everyone, there’s Bill, Xenophillius, the snatchers, Aberforth, Yaxley etc. that have never been made before. If we’re at the point that Lego is making Hannah Abbott, Florian Fortesque, etc., surely we can get some of the DH characters that have actual lines?

I was initially hyped for the trunk, but considering it’s mainly a parts pack, there’s not too much there that appeals for my needs. Obviously the students are the big draw. But the beans are in the hospital wing set, the quibbled is very similar to the original, and I prefer the size of the original 2 marauder’s map moulds.

[...] Lockhart and the pixies!

I've been thinking about why I'm not happier with the trunk set, and looking at those faces it finally struck me I like the flesh tones for injecting a bit of reality (as well as diversity) into my builds, but the mittens and facial expressions both detract from that reality. They take me right out of the scene.  

We had that scene (complete with very excellent pixies) in the CoS set last summer.

 

Thanks for the heads up, @dyl-and.

Strange that promobricks hasn't made any posts today. They normally post daily, often with a couple of posts on any given day...

It's definitely a slow day for LEGO news compared to recently. It makes me wonder if PromoBricks is waiting for a large reveal later in the day, or some thing of that sort.

Ha, you say that, but we're rapidly running out of day / evening here... *aroooo* Three hours and twelve minutes left.

Haha Here in the US, it's 3 in the afternoon, so there's a fair bit of day/evening left.

They're actually located in Germany though, near Bonn, so we're on the same clock, so to speak. And for the antipodeans, it's already well into tomorrow, living in the near future as they do...

How‘s that full moon theory going?

Wait what?! 

Edit: Holy smokes they did! Please let this be a sign the list is actually coming 

Edit 2: And again with the socks! I guess Dobby‘s Release really is one of the sets then, unless they actually did the unthinkable

Honestly, I would be content with just a partial list at this point. I just want a general idea of what to expect.

OMG. I don’t have Instagram so please keep us informed, guys! I am so excited.

[karrit]

So what is the actual time of the Full Moon in Germany today?

[1234567892022]

I want to change my prediction for a brick-built Buckbeak to a brick-built Dobby. The rest of my predictions remain the same. I can’t wait to compare them to the real list.

[BrickMatit]

Ok, keep calm, but...

... do you think Promobricks image is taken from this scene?

Now you've mentioned that it's actually a really cool idea, if they made it almost cartoony looking it would be a great seller...

Honestly, I could see them doing this in the style of The Child (and around that scale).

Aww. Dobby is my second favourite character. I can’t wait to see him. ❤️❤️

Definitely! I am beyond excited. 

[BrickBob Studpants]

A buildable Dobby in the style of Yoda or Grogu would definitely be preferable to a remake of Dobby's Release  F in the chat for FB though, if that's the case
