commanderneyo Posted February 24, 2011 Author Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) These are coming out in June, though, right? Even though the display card for the Forest said "Coming in August"... Yes the Forbidden Forest really is coming out in August not June. Won't stop me buying the Forbidden Forest before the other 2 sets though EDIT: Yep the Knight Bus and Battle For Hogwarts come out in June. Edited February 24, 2011 by commanderneyo Quote

Because the idiot that typed up that card dould easily have done a tipe-o. And anyway, if it does come out in August, that's pretty goofy of TLG to release the two biggest sets first and then back them up by the smallest. Quote

I E-mailed Lego for exactly that reason if it was a "Typo" and they said it is coming out in August. Quote
Kyp Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I E-mailed Lego for exactly that reason if it was a "Typo" and they said it is coming out in August. I hope by august they mean now. .. . i want them SO bad. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I hope by august they mean now. .. . i want them SO bad. The ordinary stores will get them in August I guess they'll be available on s@h in June, like most of the other summer sets... Quote
Kyp Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 The ordinary stores will get them in August I guess they'll be available on s@h in June, like most of the other summer sets... well i'm living in Germany the S@H is normally about 2-3 month late around here :/ Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 well i'm living in Germany the S@H is normally about 2-3 month late around here :/ And I live in Switzerland I know that some sets arrive a little late on "our" s@h, but the licensed summer sets (SW and Indy e.g.) have usually been available in June despite the stores getting them in August (or even September here in Switzerland), so I guess HP is no exception here. And in Germany, there's always Galleria Kaufhof, which gets the sets sometimes even before s@h does Quote
Jippon Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Frankly I am a little dissapointed by these new sets... the last wave of HP was much better imo. The night bus is pretty cool though, even if it's just for the purple bricks Quote
SuperChris Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 I honestly doubt there is much truth to this, but a guy commented on my blog saying that their would be another set next year and that would be Malfoy Manor. I just though I'd post in case their was truth to it and if anyone has heard anything else about it. Also, he says that Hagrid's Hut connects to the Forbidden Forest set, which is cool, if it's true, I guess. You can read the comment for yourself here. Quote
Gregorovich Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 I really hope he's telling the truth, Superchris, because I'd love to see a Malfoy Manor. However, I'm doubtful that he's correct, as he says the Knight Bus connects to a set named "Downtown London", which I've never heard of. Thanks for letting us know about that anyway. Quote

I'll be flat out and say it's a lie for several reasons. 1. He says "Supposedly"??? If it's really his friend then you generally would know if he's telling the truth. 2. why would the Knight Bus connect to something of another theme? 3. He says "If" if that is really true that his Friend's Dad works for Lego you generally would know what his job is. All in all i'm feeling ultra I'd never heard of that either. No such set exists so there's another lie this "Nathan" on your Blog has said. Quote

Yeah, i pray he's telling the truth....but, he's lying. He has no idea what sets r coming out!!! it'd be an awesome set though... Quote
Mrlegoninja Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) He's lying. I can feel it. He's lying. I can feel it. Did you guys know I can speak parsel tongue? Other wise, this is not true. There is no city set called Downtown London. And probably this Nathan is a little kid that doesn't know anything. Edited February 27, 2011 by Mrlegoninja Quote

I reckon that, I just thought it'd post it because it seemed interested, and if it happens, then he's called it! Quote
Internets Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 2. why would the Knight Bus connect to something of another theme? Downtown London wouldn't be part of another theme : / Not that I think we'll be seeing it anyway, mind. Quote
commanderneyo Posted February 27, 2011 Author Posted February 27, 2011 Downtown London wouldn't be part of another theme : / Not that I think we'll be seeing it anyway, mind. Excuse me but i'm right on my point. Knight Bus connects to an old Lego City kit called “Downtown London” Taken from Nathans Comment Quote
lightningtiger Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Well, I guess this is a rumour page eh ? Man, why do kids beat up stories, I just read that persons comment....his friends dad is a Lego designer....maybe or maybe-NOT ! Downtown London.....what dribble....we all know that's a load of back end of a cow ! Could there be any air of truth to Malfoy Manor.....sound promising....but gut feelings speak very loud here.....until we have proof, we can consider that kids rants as monkey-shines ! Quote
Internets Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Excuse me but i'm right on my point. Yes, but does that set exist? No? If it were to be released it would be tailored to the Harry Potter theme. Quote
10or Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Malfoy Manor would be cool just for the building but not figure wise. We have (and are getting) everyone who is important to that Escape from Malfoy Manor (Lucius, Narcissa, Draco, Bellatrix, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Dobby, Luna, Olivander, Fenrir, Griphook)So this set would be a bit disappointing to me because I want future sets with new figs. Grimmauld Place or Ministry of Magic seem like the most logical to me. Quote
Harrypotterfreak Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Perhaps, since the 'downtown London' scene was kinda important in the DHpt.1, that will be an HP set. i mean, it would have Hermione, Ron, Harry in tuxes and a dress and it would have a cafe and it qould come with Dolohov or something. It's unlikely, but who knows?! Malfoy Manor would be cool just for the building but not figure wise.

Grimmauld Place or Ministry of Magic seem like the most logical to me. I totally agree! If this is really going to be a set, I probably won't be getting it, as I want new figs, not so much the buildings.... Quote

It's unlikely, but who knows?! Well, if there's going to be a Malfoy Manor, it's going to be an exclusive as we've not heard about it yet. That would mean 2 HP exclusives in one year, which is unlikely, but not impossible. If there's going to be a Downtown London, it's also going to be exclusive. That's 3 HP exclusives in 1 year, which isn't going to happen. However, I'd be happy to see either sets! Quote

Downtown London was NOT a HP set and already been released according to this dumb little 7 year old kid. And this "Malfoy Manor" is supposed to be released in 2012, not 2011, so it would be possible. But like I said, this kid is probably lying and doesn't know if or not this is a real set. Quote

Well, I believe you're mistaken in your assumption. It said that Downtown London was a city set... Quote
Clone OPatra Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Can we just stop this nonsensical talk now? It's been established that this "rumor" has absolutely no merit whatsoever, so all subsequent discussion of it has just turned into wishlists for Harry Potter sets, either this year or next. There's a different topic for that. This topic is for discussing actual 2011 sets. Let's please try to keep it to that. Quote
