With our first wave LEGO Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts Minifigures releasing, everyone
is already asking what the heck will be in a second series. I teamed up with my artist
Ashnflash to deliver what we think would REALISTICALLY be in such a series. We think this would release
in 2020, to coincide with the release of the third Fantastic Beasts movie.
Well, Harry Potter has to be in this - and we thought a good variant would be his outfit
to the Yule Ball from the Goblet of Fire. And while I don�t think the Yule Ball variant
is very exciting, LEGO tends to do mediocre variations for a second series - look at the
Simpsons Series. And Harry himself doesn�t have too many crazy variations aside from
this. We gave him the golden egg, which isn�t specifically from the scene, but rather from
the same movie - the Goblet of Fire.
Harry�s best friend, Ron Weasley is next. His attire is based off of the outfit he wore
to the Yule ball as well� you�re gonna see a lot of Goblet of Fire figures in here.
Ron uses Qi�ra�s hairpiece a new recolor in dark orange. He has a fabric leg attachment
to continue his overcoat from the torso. Rather than having it printed on the legs, it helps
make it seem more puffy and ridiculous. While it isn�t exactly screen accurate to this
scene, we wanted to include an item from Goblet of Fire for Ron - so he�s holding a Potter
Stinks pin on a 1x1 round tile.
And the Hermione Granger is dressed up in her Yule attire - I feel like if LEGO included
one in the Yule outfit, all would be in the Yule outfits. She comes with a new hair piece,
as well as a new dress piece that�s the same height as the mid legs. We had a hard
time coming up with an accessory for Hermione from this movie, so we decided to give her
the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them book to help tie the movies all together.
Hermione is seen in the film reading multiple books - so we�d figure that we�d just
give her this text book. Originally, Cat Hermione was going to be the Hermione from this series,
but you KNOW LEGO would just cop out and do the less interesting Yule outfit to pander
to the princess-loving demographic. Maybe we�ll see this version in Series 3.
Next up is the Sirius� Black�s house elf - Kreacher. He comes with a new head different
than Dobby�s. His ears and nose are more droopy because he is a much older and beaten
down house elf. His accessory is a broom piece in dark brown. His other accessory is a new
mould of one of Voldemort�s Horcruxes - the Slytherin Locket. It is similar to the already
existing medal piece.
Then there�s Luna Lovegood wearing her Lion head, a fan favorite outfit that Luna used
to show support for the Gryffindor Quidditch team. Her accessory is a reddish brown wand
- which actually, I should note, most characters have their wands in here so I�ll leave out
mentioning that - and a goblet in pearl gold.
We also have Moaning Myrtle with a new toilet seat attachment to her neck that continues
behind the head, and she uses the existing pigtails hair and mid-legs.
Now, we have Wormtail in his Graveyard Duel outfit with lil� Voldemort - using that
Series 15 LEGO baby piece, and Wormtail himself has a new hair piece.
Kingsley makes an appearance in here, with some gorgeous recolors of existing pieces,
a new hat, and the newspaper of Daily Prophet accusing Dumbledore of being a threat to the
ministry of magic.
We can�t forget the infinitely annoying Rita Skeeter, with some nice lime recolors
for her outfit, a feather as a quill, and a notepad - a printed 1 x 2 tile.
There�s also Lavender Brown, which has a new hair piece similar to Alice�s from the
Disney Series, as well as a new piece of a Weasley Brothers� love potion topped with
a handle up top.
Now, going back to the original films, we have Vernon Dursley, using a recolor of the
Commissioner Gordon LEGO Batman Movie hair. For his accessories, we have the already existing
LEGO cookie, and a letter printed for Harry on a 1 x 2 tile� right before he�ll angrily
destroy it.
And, there�s Vernon�s son Dudley, based directly on the Sorcerer's Stone - even with
an accessory of the python that he encounters at the zoo.
Gilderoy Lockhart is another pick for the series, with a new mould for a cornish pixie
similar to baby groot, and a signed photo of him on a broom.
Nymphadora Tonks would appear with alternate hair pieces as accessories for when she changes
her hair color - you can go from a reddish purple, to a light pink, and even tan. Not
only that, but her alternate face uses her metamorphic ability for a pig nose.
We decided to include Luna�s dad Xenophilius Lovegood, the only minifigure in here from
the final films. His hair is a recolor of the new Aquaman�s, and his accessory is
Tales of Beedle the Bard� Ashnflash did a great LEGO interpretation of this, with
the inside page - a 1x2 tile - being of the Three Brothers story.
Finally, we have Prisoner Belatrix from the Order of the Phoenix, which uses her existing
hair piece, black handcuffs, and the web holder piece holding a 1x3 tile of her prisoner number.
That�s it for the Harry Potter figures, which you can see, it�s an interesting bunch.
Stay tuned �til the end as I discuss some key characters who remaining missing, because
we still have six to go!
But these are from the Fantastic Beasts movies, starting off with young Albus Dumbledore,
based off the second film. Keep in mind this movie hasn�t been released yet, so the accessories
and such were so hard to decide. Well, actually not for Dumbledore - we gave him the deluminator,
a new piece.
Young Newt Scamander is included with his Hufflepuff robes, and a new mould for Pickett
much like a statue figure, since I felt the one LEGO released is so lame - I just thought
it was a leaf. Again, I don�t even know if he had Pickett at this time in the movie,
so I�m making a wild guess.
We have Leta Lestrange, with a photo of her from the past - the one Newt owns, which LEGO
did include in a set but I felt it wasn�t too accurate, and this is a 1x1 printed tile.
There�s Newt�s brother Theseus Scamander, with a recolor of the Mr. Incredible hair
in dark brown, and the letter he sent to Newt printed on a 2x2 tile. The writing on it is
pretty fine, so I�m not sure LEGO would print the whole thing, but we took the risk.
We were really pulling for characters, so we included Seraphina Picquery from the first
Fantastic Beasts movie - the Grindelwald Escape set has a different version of her, this one
uses a new hat piece. Her accessory is another printed 2x2, with a wanted poster for Newt
Scamander.
Finally, we have Nicholas Flamel, revealed in the latest trailer for Fantastic Beasts
and the Crimes of Grindelwald. He has the philosopher�s stone as an accessory, and
his hair piece is a recolor of Mad Eye Moody�s in white.
Ashnflash did an incredible job with the backside of the checklist with Fantastic Beast characters�
I love the little instructions for Lockhart with the cape.
Anyways. There�s a bunch of characters planned that didn�t make the final cut.
At one point, we had Werewolf Lupin with Sirius Black as Padfoot as an accessory, but since
we think this would launch in 2020, I�m sure other LEGO Harry Potter sets would be
out by then� most likely based of Prisoner of Azkaban and Goblet of Fire. And one of
them will PROBABLY be the Shrieking Shack.
The same goes for why we didn�t do a regular Bellatrix or a Greyback, I feel those would
be in potential Deathly Hallow sets.
We also had Professor Sprout as a figure, but we couldn�t think of any accessories
to give her - Neville took the mandrakes. And honestly, I just think they�d release
her as a figure in a new Hogwarts Expansion, like they did in 2011.
I�m sure there�s so many more, and I hope to do a Series 3 sometime. Either way, this
video was voted on by 5 dollar up Patreon supporters, and our next poll is up now - with
