First peek at the official photos of the summer HP wave!

[gingerwitch]

We've seen Dobby and the Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes pix already, now we've got a peek for you at the remaining four sets. I'm still expecting the full reveal sometime today, because you don't release the first ever Battle of Hogwarts set the week of the 25th anniversary of the BoH without somehow reflecting that fact, darn it. (Or if you do, you need

Maybe Dark!McGonagall? But McG in her black robes.



In fact, until we get more combatants, like McG, it's henceforth now officially re-dubbed: the Epic Disagreement of Hogwarts set. EDoH.

Ooo, so people were complaining about the clock sticker archway piece, as they're a bit rubbish from behind (see the gryphon in Dumbledore's Office), and I figured, no worries, remove it, and it's an entryway... Well check the pics above. Now that we have a shot of the back of the box, you can see there's a second sticker (*swoon*) of a seriously damaged clock. I love that detail.

Ahhh, ok, my mind went to Disney's activity...

I noticed the damaged clock tower sticker too, just figured you already saw it, oops. I do love that it looks battle broken.

No, I spotted it right off (I mean, are you kidding? 😆), but after taking the time to write everything, and doing several updates, the BoH box rear view was the literal last photo I received, and I didn't go back to update the update (to the update lol) to comment on it, and having seen so many people complain, it seemed more than worthy of a mention. As much as people complain about stickers, the inclusion of another one for the back side of a large piece that is visible from both sides makes such a difference. I'm really glad when lego go the extra mile like that, and thought they deserved a hearty "atta team".

(Slightly weird that the clocks are apparently at different heights, and now I'm not going to think about that again, because: pretty and just nicely done.)
