As for 6., Google translator gives me "Molly, Arthur, Ron, Ginny, Fred and George, Percy, Errol and - of course - Harry (and one more)". This would suggest eight actual known minifigs plus Errol plus "one more" (which could be a human character or not). So no Charlie and likely no Bill, either. Though of course the information would depend on just how well the source can tell the individual Weasleys apart. But the characters mentioned all correspond with the rooms (except for Errol and Harry) so it makes sense.

I would find really strange considering Errol as a minifigures :iamded_lol: 

By the way, on another polish site, www.klockinews.pl, the text in there is a bit different. This is the Google translation:

Quote

 

On the upper floors there are, m.in, Fred and George's room with two beds, Ginny's room with a bed with green sheets with the Holyhead Harpies Quidditch club logo and a poster of The Weird Sisters, Molly and Arthur's room with a skewed double bed, Ron's room with a bed with sheets with the Chudley Cannons logo, Percy's small room, toilet and attic. It is worth noting that all graphic elements are prints, not stickers.

The set includes as many as 10 minifigures, m.in. Molly in a green costume with prints (with pink arms, also printed), Arthur, Ron with blue legs and a brown torso with a sweater print, Ginny with purple legs and a blue torso with a blouse print, Fed and George in identical green sweaters and Percy.

In addition, the Errol figure on a transparent brick, thanks to which it looks like it is flying towards home.

 

We have to wait some other leakers to point us in the right direction, I suppose...

This Polish abbreviation stands for "między innymi" which means "among others".

I’m not saying the minifig selection would be worthless without Bill and Charlie, but this is THE opportunity to get them and a set of this size should include at least one new character or significant variant :laugh: Fingers crossed!

And nice to have Errol confirmed. I suppose it’ll be a new print then!

I think a lot of people will be glad to get Percy. Presumably in casual clothes, though with Percy it would also make sense for him to wear his Hogwarts outfit from the book-exklusiven figure (with the badge) at home.

If they stick to the time period suggested by the survey leak minifigs, there’s a good chance that the characters will be GoF based and Percy will be in professional wear.

If they’re trying to be cheeky and keep a character secret, do we think it might be the Ghoul in the attic? Never showed up in the movies, but would probably fit as a character homage and makes  sense to sneak into the set.

Does Lego ever run deals during the Hogwarts GWP week or is it just the GWP? Wondering both about 2x VIP points and specific set sales.

It is kinda like a much smaller version of May the fourth with Harry Potter. Less GWPs, less discounts and no double Insider Points. Though I would hope they would celebrate it a bit bigger this year than they did last year, so who knows.

I seem to recall a couple of sets getting double points promos back in 2018 when they started the reboot, but nothing stands out in my memory since then. It would be nice if we could get a Harry Potter double points promo for back to Hogwarts day like Star Wars gets for May the Fourth though. 

Last year all we got aside from the GWPs were some Sets with 20% discount.

As for 7., it specifically says "all graphic elements in the set are to be prints, including Quidditch team logos, posters and bedding." Make of that what you will.

 

Source (the paragraph under the picture of the advent calendar that starts with a green "UPDATE"): https://fanklockow.pl/2024/06/04/zapowiedzi-lego-2024-harry-potter/

Yeah, well Errol doesn´t count as a minifig though. No idea how reliable I would take a source that doesn´t even know that - and all the listed characters above are the ones we are almost taking as granted anyways. Bill and especially Charly are the uncertain characters here. Still have my doubts about the no stickers comment but if it turns out to be true, I will surely be happy about it.

Does the Burrow have a ghost liviing in its attic?

It’s a ghoul not a ghost. And I highly doubt it will get included since 1) it doesn’t even get mentioned in the movies like Ron’s older brothers do, and 2) it lives in the attic, and the designers almost certainly want to prioritize literally every other room in the house.

True, Well that would be shame if they don’t include a new character (ghouL0 after it has been mentioned in books and made an appearance in video games.

We’ll almost certainly get a new character in the Burrow – so far the only D2C not to feature multiple new characters is the Icons Collection (which was not a Minifigure compatible set and instead gave us 3 exclusive gold versions of existing characters) – but the new characters a far more likely to be Bill Weasley (who actually appears in the movies), and Charlie Weasley (who is mentioned multiple times in the movies and would complete the family). The ghoul from the attic, whose mentions in the books probably couldn’t even fill a single page all together and doesn’t rate a mention in the movies at all, is not going to be prioritized over actual family members. Especially since if you did the ghoul you’d also have to do the attic and use up valuable interior space that I’m sure the designers would rather devote to the bedrooms. 
 

If those Polish sites are right about the number of minifigs (which I’m dubious about since neither gives a full list of characters and it’s just the same number that was in the survey leak image) then it’s a matter of who the tenth character will be. In the survey image it’s clearly Hermione’s hair present, but we shouldn’t rule out it being switched to Harry. And if those leak sites are full of hot air (impossible to rule out at the moment) we could always get 11 characters with both Harry and Hermione (or for that matter, 9 characters with only the Weasleys).

To a point they do, but each has a twist, which is why you listed 3 sites that do the same thing. I am not suggesting using this over those for most things. This is just for fun and for me, it is also just specific to HP and gives you a faster view. It also has more sorting and grouping options

A question for the Australians, has anyone managed to find the new Harry Potter sets in other retailers like Kmart, Big W, Target etc.? 

Thanks

Nah they're not in any other stores yet.

Has happened before with other set releases, not sure if it's shipping issues or embargo, but they usually get to other retailers a month or so after release

I found and purchased the baby dragon Norbert from BrickLink other da and it arrived.  That baby dragon is very cute next to Riku (from. Nina go). Now, I don’t.  Need to buy the entire Hagrid’s Hut set but I will hunt for Fang figure

I can’t wait to get my ahdsn on two more small dragon figures later this year. One from DnD CMF and one from Ninjago se. It’s really neat to collect fantasy creatures from different themes.

Yeah, I definitely plan on picking up the red D&D tiny dragon. I’m also hoping we get either that or the little Ninjago dragon in blue, green, and brown so I can have my first task champions holding their dragon models.

Bigw have added them to their website but they are not available yet, should start arriving this or next week I'd say. No ship though.

Not wild about a UCS Burrow. I'd more likely grab one of the play scale versions instead tbh

I've been filling in some of the holes in my collection via bricklink lately -- goblins, minifigs from sets I missed, more Hogwarts pieces. Of the new releases most looking forward to the Potions class but the new Great Hall includes the troll scene I've waited so long to see re-imagined!

Why? Because of the price? :laugh: Personally, I‘m looking forward to it quite a bit. The exterior of the prelim looked fantastic, and the larger scale allows for a lot more details to be included, and the 2020 one was already very detailed!

I am really wondering how good the set will do when it is released. I don´t think it would particulary sell bad, but on the same time, for some people the old burrow might be enough and I just do think that many might buy the Ship instead of the burrow for the GWP
