1234567892022 Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 A lot of people seem upset with the direction of this theme, but I’m here still loving it. And I’m glad to see others still enthusiastic. I really enjoy the new Hogwarts system because I display it with the interior out, and it reminds me of that pull-out picture from that book a few years back. Quote

Honestly, whilst you can't beat the 2018 - 2020 castle sections for outwards displayability, as someone who loves to display 'scene' sets, the new modular system has a certain charm for it's ability to display and easily add little scene vignettes.

I know it can theoretically be used on its own and mixed with what's currently available, but it just looks like it's meant to go on top of another module to me. This is a good statement. The new Clock Tower, even if is not comparable with the former one, need to be placed higher to emerge from the other parts of the castle. I think I'm going to do it, with a new set or with the old ones or creating something of my own. Quote
Textorix Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) Well I hope we won’t see many Hogwarts castle sets in this wave. I kinda got bored from them even though I accepted the new system and made it displayable with 2018-2020 sets. I want to see some interesting buildings with more natural and dynamic shapes rather than generic 8x8, 16x8, 24x8 blocks, which while it works for making interior based scenes, it is just cheap design imo... hence so many people now make their own MOC rooms with this system as it is quite primitive concept which is easily replicable.

It looks like the top half meant to go on a bottom half. I'll be shocked if it isn't to be honest. Quote

HP has some severe competition this time, just look at the recent reveals for some of the other themes They‘d have to be pretty special to beat the Tallneck, the JP diorama, or the two TBoBF sets Edited February 17, 2022 by BrickBob Studpants Quote

Shows just how subjective these things are, not that I don't agree that the sets you mention are good quality sets. Right now though, I am not amused. Edited February 17, 2022 by BacktoBricks Quote
BacktoBricks Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 I really hope there's also some sort of deep tease going on and the close up of the black late means we'll also be getting some sort of second task set as well as Werewolf Lupin and a Dobby set, but I won't hold my breath. Quote

Last year, it had to take a backseat to the excellent Mando and Infinity Saga sets This year, it’s getting even more tough. TLG, impress me Quote
Textorix Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) Damn Falconfan is making fun of our desparation for leaks on Instagram again :DDD ... I hope it helps to increase the hype so Promobricks finally stops sitting on their Lego HP info Edited February 17, 2022 by Textorix Quote

And I think she, OotP Sirius, and Werewolf Lupin are probably the character variations that we’re really missing. As far as characters we technically already have go, I don’t think there are any others that make me think “wow, it’s ridiculous that we don’t have that version of them yet.” Quote
