acciobrickWe've got the first pictures of two of the autumn sets now from a Japanese catalogue, and they're both pretty good! The new micro-nanoscale Hogwarts, 76419 lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle & Grounds, and 76418 the 2023 lego Harry Potter Advent Calendar, both with an expected 01 September release date. (It's just a picture of the front of the Advent Calendar's box, and we've already seen the minifigs from an earlier leak, but think twice before spoiling yourself by clicking through.)
76419 Micro / nanoscale Hogwarts & Grounds (rumoured D2C) | 2660 pieces (18+) | 2260 pieces | $169.99, 169.99 EUR
Includes the Beauxbaton's carriage and Durmstrang ship, the greenhouses, Boat House and Bell Towers, and I believe we can just make out a snake at the base of the detail photo, which is very likely the Chamber of Secrets, and as long as they're going there, I'd expect at least some of the various challenges from Philosopher's Stone to be there as well.
76418 lego Harry Potter Advent Calendar 2023 1x | 227 pieces (7+) | $44.99 or 37.99 EUR | at least 6 minifigs anticipated
As expected, it's from Prisoner of Azkaban and depicts Harry's visit to Hogsmeade. He's joined by Hermione, Ron and Draco, and on the top of the box we can make out the Aberforth figure who leaked as well. We can very likely expect to see Madam Rosmerta, too, if the sixth figure from the leak also puts in an appearance. Hermione's combo hat / hair piece is really cute, and Draco sports a new re-colour of the Ushanka.
Other things included are a bench, a sign pointing the way to Hogwarts, a street lamp, a snowman, at least two trees (from past sets, the smaller might appear in a day with two trees, whereas the larger is very likely to appear on its own), and a, uh, fire pit with Hermione's Blue Bell Flames? Or maybe it's a frozen fountain? I haven't a clue. 😆 As usual, the box art is adorable. There's a lovely little scene of Hogsmeade, including a building with a pink door. Is this a hint there might be a Madam Puddifoot's coming? We'll have to wait and see.
That leaves only two sets we know of that are still likely to be released this year from the theme:
76417 D2C GRINGOTTS $429.99 | 4804 pieces (18+) | no word on the number of minifigs yet (PS or DH or both)
The GWP Gringotts Vault we suspect will be tied to the Gringotts release. (PS or DH)
