Squeeing Happened.
Lego has finally officially announced next year's new Harry Potter classroom sets, and they are much better than I was expecting. (Some squeeing may have taken place. Only to be expected really.) We're getting new Minerva, Filius, and Pomona minifigs. (Filius, in particular, is a real departure, representing the much older look actor Warwick Davis wore for the first two films and the first three video game adaptations of the series.) Strangely, Severus seems to have stayed much the same, with the exception of a new waistcoat with collar, but mysteriously sporting even fewer buttons than usual. 😐 (Pfft. They fundamentally fail to understand shippers.)
Each set has three minifigs: an instructor and two students, including (at least) one Gryffindor student and (at least) one of the students from the teacher's house. (The Transfiguration Classroom logically has two Gryffindors.) That's a good way to increase our uniform supply, except for the poor Hufflepuffs who once again get little official love. (Hugs! ❤️) Instead of a Hufflepuff uniform, we're getting two Herbology overcoats in the set. All four sets will get us the four Heads of House, their classrooms, 4 Gryffindor uniforms, 1 Slytherin uniform, 1 Ravenclaw uniform, and the 2 Herbology overcoats. Three or more sets can be linked to form a 360 degree model, and individually can be folded into the book form for storage.
