LEGO Store Event in "DACH RAUM" Germany, Austria, and Switzerland

It looks like some parts of Europe will be getting their own "build a lego Harry Potter freebie" in the weeks to come in the form of a small Hogwarts Express set to build and keep.

On the 4th and 5th of September, from 3 to 5 pm, the German, Austrian and Swiss lego stores are expected to have their own Back to Hogwarts event with a little Hogwarts Express. Contact your local store to see if they're participating. Supplies are limited, first come, first serve, and only one engine per person. ( Read more... )

If you miss out, don't worry. It looks like it's only 43 pieces, and unlike this year's Barnes & Noble build, none of them are exclusive.

The LEGO Harry Potter Collector's Edition Burrow leak

It seems the LEGO House Instagram account briefly posted promotional material today for an upcoming event celebrating the release of the LEGO Harry Potter 76437 the Burrow - Collector's Edition (2405 pieces, 10 minifigures, 259,99 Euro (expected retail price)), as the post has since been removed. Fortunately Jay's Brick Blog snagged the photo, and the ever lovely people at StoneWars.de have signal boosted appropriately. Shout outs to both, woohoo! 😘

Luckily, this little oopsie doozy gives us our first good look at the Burrow Direct to Customer (D2C) set since the leak from the Chilean lego dealer inadvertently provided us with a small peek a few weeks ago. ( Read more... )

And we now have some great pix of the 2024 lego Harry Potter theme gift with purchase (GWP)! Amusingly enough, it also solves the question of "Just what should Floo powder look like?" that erexen and I were discussing only yesterday. How's that for timing, huh? (It looks like we were right about transparent fluorescent acid green... 😆)( Read more... )

I'm definitely looking forward to this set. 😃

Another GWP! The Weasley Family Clock!

And still more HP lego news! We have our first picture of a rumoured second Harry Potter theme GWP. Unfortunately rumour also has it this might be a GWP only available with purchase of the Collectors' Edition Burrow, but for anyone who might be interested, the Australian lego store has posted an entry for the lego themed Weasley family clock 🕰️. I've no clue if it will stay online, so the relevant information is provided below the fold.( Read more... )
