01 September, it's back to Hogwarts...

Aug 27, 2020 00:10

Presumably because it's the time to leap on the Hogwarts Express as it leaves from Platform 9 3/4, September is shaping up to be Harry Potter Lego month. In addition to the second Harry Potter collectible minifigure series officially going on sale as of 01 September (although plenty have been spotted in stores around the world already), there will ( Read more... )

All you need is a formal suit/tux/robed body & a vapid vacuous expression on a default yellow Lego head.
As long as Fleur is in her Yule Ballgown & in the Ball decorated Great Hall playset, most HP fans can guess who he's supposed to be.
{Fleur's looser Yule date, ole whatshisname.}

Given we'll now have an extra tux from Harry, that's pretty much the plan. *nods* Roger's hair didn't even look that different from the minifigs, so: sorted. Oh look, it's Fleur and thingie. 😉

Oh crud... I blew it... I already ordered the Astronomy Tower... darn. :-( But I didn't get the Advent Calendar 2020 yet, so that will hopefully qualify for the HP & Hedwig packet?

Wow, serious facts & figures to consider. As to Hermione's "floaty pink abomination", I switched it out for Fleur's nicer gray gown, giving Fleur the monstrosity. *snicker giggle*

Woman! One of the very first things I told you was: patience is a virtue, wait for the GWPs or the double VIP points come autumn! lol ( ... )

What are the VIP double points things for Sept.? They are Avengers in Aug... not my cuppa. The Brick Headz things haven't gripped my attention as much as the castle builds, so not really missing it a huge lot. Now Snape stuff... that's a whole other quidditch game. The In Store thing, ummm, nope. Not yet, Covid still surging. No thanks ( ... )

I couldn't tell from the calendar which sets were going to offer the double points, but traditionally several times a year they offer double vip points on *all* products, which means a roughly 10% rebate, which is nice. (Because it hasn't been announced yet, it's even possible the new Diagon Alley set will get the 2x. The couldn't mention that in advance because the set doesn't officially exist yet ( ... )

We can always count on you for Lego Info! I bet you had fun doing all that figuring out - I enjoyed reading your findings. :D I think Lego is a pretty great company and it's awesome that the are becoming more diverse in the minifigs.

I hope you're doing all right my dear! Big Snap Together Hugs and Smooches! xoxo
