Improved Pix of Malfoy Manor and the Nanoscale Diagon Alley...
We now have better quality pictures from Smyths of the new lego Harry Potter Winter 2025 wave sets the nanoscale 76444 Diagon Alley: Wizarding Shops and 76453 Malfoy Manor. They're 2750 and 1601 pieces respectively and due out 01 January 2025.
76444 Diagon Alley: Wizarding Shops (18+) from the lego Harry Potter Winter 2025 wave | 0 minifigures, at least 12 nanofigures and a brick built dragon | 2750 pieces | US $199.99 - DE/FR €TBA - UK £TBA | Release: 01 JANUARY 2025
They've changed some of the colour schemes for the shots, legitimate in as much as they weren't consistent in the sets or across the parks. From the look of it, we've got:
LEFT: the Knight Bus, the Leaky Cauldron, one of the pet stores (most likely the Magical Menagerie - see the kitty used as a shop sign), Madam Malkin's, a recoloured Quality Quidditch Supplies, then a couple of shops I can't recognise at that angle.
CENTRE: Gringotts Bank
RIGHT: Broomstix or the Owl Post I'd imagine due to its height, Scribblus, Ollivander's, a blue shop I can't identify (Wiseacre's?), Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour, Flourish & Blotts, Weasleys' Wizards' Wheezes (complete with Muggle World façade and proper English phone booth.
I'll need an unfolded frontal shot to do better. Or the official description. Either will work, I'm thoroughly unfussed.
76453 Malfoy Manor from the lego Harry Potter Winter 2025 wave | 9 minifigures (and Nagini) | 1601 pieces | US $149.99 - DE/FR €TBA - UK £TBA | Release: 01 JANUARY 2025
Presently my two favourite elements are Harry's hexed face (nice work Hermione) and the brick built peacocks. As the windows in the centre piece are blocked, it will be interesting to see what they've included in the rear / inside of the building. The table and fireplace seem likely (the former especially as Narcissa, Bellatrix and Voldemort have legs instead of skirt pieces, which wouldn't allow them to sit, and that's the most intuitive reason for it), and given the minifigures included, I'd expect a holding cell / dungeon.
And because he's not included in the Malfoy Manor set, a shout out to Harry and the Potters and their classic, "(No one's asking) 'Where's Ron?'" (aka "Where the hell is Ron?"):
