gingerwitch.livejournal.comWe now have pics of all of this winter's Harry Potter lego sets, and unfortunately official word that they won't be available until March. (The disappointment was marked.) Plenty of pics beneath the fold... ( Read more... )
Thing to bear in mind: the 2019 Clock Tower goes EOL at the end of this year, and is clearly being replaced with this set. It's interesting that there will be this short of a gap between releases again, much like with the 2018 Great Hall / 2021 Chamber of Secrets sets. Anyway, if you prefer the older style, pick it up while you still can.
Another thing that stands out, the catalogue doesn't include the Potions Moment set. This may mean nothing, it could just be a decision of this individual store. On the other hand, if you liked the set and don't have it yet, just keep an eye out so you don't miss your window of opportunity.

To GWP or not?
Oct. 21st, 2021 06:41 pmgingerwitch.livejournal.comSome countries are hearing confirmations that the HP GWP will happen next week, unfortunately there's no word yet on the US. There's some consolation, however, in the event it shouldn't happen where you are: lego has announced another VIP weekend in November from the 20th to the 21st. The GWPs and specials are scheduled to be announced on the 15th. So if there isn't incentive to make your purchases next week, maybe that will help make up for it. š
Thanks to stonewars for the heads up.
