Jango Fett Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Hey there! I recently came across these pictures from BRICKSET: Do we already know when and where these Sets will appear? I anticipate they are meant to be EXCLUSIVE Sets!? Quote
lightningtiger Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Sorry to say this 'Jango' but we saw those images a month of so ago.....I might even have already downloaded the instructions from Lego.com ! We can assume a newspaper deal, cinema deal or a toy chain freebie when you spend so much on HP Lego ! We shall wait and see eh ? Quote
jonwil Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Ok so it looks like the globe will have the same print as the one in POTC but with a different color scheme. Ok so it looks like the globe will have the same print as the one in POTC but with a different color scheme. Quote
L_Steef Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 The new sets can now be pre ordered on the lego site! http://shop.lego.com/ByTheme/Leaf.aspx?cn=672&d=342 Quote
Special K Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Has anyone seen these? It says the mini-figs are sold separately so could we be getting Mini-figure Collections HP style? Cant wait for Building the Magical World and the new sets! Quote
mostlytechnic Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Where'd you get the pics of those fig display cases? Given that they don't say LEGO anywhere on them, I'm assuming they're not made by Lego but someone else. Probably not sold by Lego, just something random stores might carry. Quote
Special K Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 (edited) I saw them on both amazon and eBay there were also SW ones and collectable minifig ones. Google Lego Harry potter minifigure display case. Edited May 16, 2011 by Special K Quote
lightningtiger Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Hey, they missed and also there is any room for everyone's favorite....Hagrid ! It's sad when you gotta put toys into plastic cases to look at and not get played with ! Ah, well to each their own I guess ! Quote
10or Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 (edited) placed my pre-order, got free shipping this is going to be one crazy harry potter summer!:) more interior of Hogwarts is shown on the website too Edited May 16, 2011 by 10or Quote
Parrothead Rasmus Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Fairly disappointed with the Knight Bus... but's it's still a buy for me. Can't resist the two new minifigures, purple bricks, and another owl! Quote
Gregorovich Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Has anyone seen these? *image* *image* It says the mini-figs are sold separately so could we be getting Mini-figure Collections HP style? Cant wait for Building the Magical World and the new sets! I doubt that there's going to be an HP minifigure collection, but I'd really love that! I think what it means by "sold separately" is that they are sold in the sets. On the official description of the FF set, it says it comes with an owl. In the picture though, I can't seem to find it. Does it really come with one, or is it just a common error? Quote
Oky Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Yeah, those display cases have been mentioned before and are not from TLC. Hey, they missed and also there is any room for everyone's favorite....Hagrid ! There are a lot of other figs missing, so obviously you're supposed to buy multiples of these cases. This is just an example. Quote

But would Hagrid fit that plastic case.....those poor minifigs.....what dark magic holds them prisioner ? My mind must have slipped a little, is it June or July these three new sets comming out ? Keep on casting spells ! Quote
Harrypotterfreak Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 I did check my local TRU to see about the KB being there, and no luck. Fine by me; would've prob. been ten dollars more anyway!!! They didn't have any PotC sets, either!! Quote
Mrlegoninja Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 The New HP sets can now be pre-ordered from Legoshop at home. At least in the USA. Quote
tin7_creations Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 The New HP sets can now be pre-ordered from Legoshop at home. At least in the USA. Can be ordered in Canada too! Already ordered all of them; shipping before June 1, 2011! ~t7_c Quote
Blackknight112 Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 I must say non of the new hp sets look really good to me. They just seem minifigs with some bricks instead bricks with minifigs. Except the bus, i thnk the main reason to buy it is just the minifigs. Quote

Parrothead Rasmus Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 It must be an error because no pics on S@H has an owl, either. That's what I figured. Same thing with the PotC sets. In the Mill set, the description says it has a palm tree, and it doesn't. The descriptions are probably made when the sets are still preliminary, and they may forget to edit them when the final sets are released. Just a guess. Quote
10or Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! THEY ARE MAKING A 5-7! GOING TO BE RELEASED THIS HOLIDAY SEASON!! LINK hopefully more sets!! sorry for the caps, but I have been waiting for this info! they highlighted the Ministry, Godrics Hallow, and Grimmauld Place in the Article, hopefully it points to possible sets!

That's utterly awesome! You might want to post this in the Harry Potter game thread though. Quote
tin7_creations Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 I doubt Years 5-7 will equal more sets. Remember how a very successful LEGO Batman game did not garner more sets? The same thing happened with Indiana Jones too. Quote
The Penguin Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 I doubt Years 5-7 will equal more sets. Remember how a very successful LEGO Batman game did not garner more sets? The same thing happened with Indiana Jones too. Yep. Very good point. It seems that practice shows the opposite: no sets follow the game. And I was soooo hoping to see more Bat-sets back then! Oh! But let us hope that this will be an exception. And TLC will continue working with WB and re-launch Batman some time! Am i going mad? Good day, ladies and gentlemen! ) Quote
fred67 Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 Fairly disappointed with the Knight Bus... but's it's still a buy for me. Can't resist the two new minifigures, purple bricks, and another owl! I'm wondering what's wrong with the Knight Bus? It's a nice looking set, so I don't think that's the problem... when I try to objectively value them, it comes out as the worst deal in the HP line. I usually start by valuing minifigures at $3.00/each (although I often modify that) and subtracting that value from the cost of the set, then I remove 4 to 5 pieces per character from the total part count. Only after I've done that do I look at price per brick, and even then it's very iffy... if a set comes with a boat, for example (Isla de Muerta), that's a huge deal to get averaged into the brick prices... But the Knight Bus pieces are pretty standard, nothing "big." BUT, to get it all in PURPLE makes a huge difference. I understand TLG has a problem with purple, so even with the most expensive price per piece, it still seems "worth" it... IOW, it's definitely still a buy for me as well. I will be disappointed if those HP 30110 and 30111 sets don't come here. I have to make trades to get the POTC newspaper deals (and still didn't get the Jack Sparrow one). Quote
10or Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 Sorry, just thought this would be good news to post here since a lot of Potter fans look here. Started a new topic. i was thinking that DH 2 will be released on DVD during the holiday season, the same time around the game, so it would be smart for LEGO to get in a few more sets since that would be their last chance. personally, i dont like the new knight bus since i feel we really didnt need a new one. a different set would have been nice.
