Don't forget UK prices do include VAT You could always use a package forwarder though! Edited April 30, 2020 by sammy_zammy

In my country you can find some sales, I have seen some sets from 2019 for the half of price, but only shorter sales like one week. 6 hours ago, chris6507 said: Question for everyone... do you all display your hogwarts roughly how LEGO shows in their pictures or have some of you come up with a more accurate layout? I personally removed the yule ball part from the clock tower and attached it to the back end of the great hall. But thought some of you might be a bit more switched on as to the actual layout out of hogwarts and how to best represent it with what we have. Would love some suggestions, surprisingly can't find anything by googling. No, i'm modify the sets to look better. It's almost an exception i'm satisfy with legos version. But legos version does helping me to get inspired and start rebuilding. I want to be more accurate to the actually Hogwarts, not to legos Hogwarts :)

UKFan922 Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 The new sets are up for pre-order in the UK on Smyths and Zavvi, but the Burrow is missing so I'm guessing it's a Lego exclusive. I got the new sets weeks early in both 2018 and 2019 from Smyths, but this year I'm getting them from Lego to earn points (they're the same price) as I'm saving them to get for Birthday in July so I'm in no rush to receive them.

Just saw. No pre-order discounts like someone else said there was in their country

I just ordered with a 10% discount from Taschengelddieb. Depending on how many retailers you have in GB, you can wait a few days until all of them have listed the sets. Maybe one or another offers some discount as well

Even 10% off I really shouldn't as it'll be cheaper than that after release and I ought to get the previous years' sets first, but I wanna ride the hype

The sets are too good to wait any longer and building them is the best activity to distract oneself a little bit. But I guess my wallet will start biting me very soon

Did Lego release the instruction for AT yet ? I couldn’t find one. However, if you wouldn’t mind, can I get LDD file for all 3 castles. I still in progress with my MOC right now. It will help me a lot.

DocStrange Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 When do you guys think the leaks for Diagon Alley will be and is it still supposed to be coming out in August or at another time now?

I think like the Hogwarts D2C it will be availabe for VIP‘s to buy in mid-August if it‘s released in September. We got pictures of the Hogwarts D2C on July 25th and it was released on September 1st, I think we can expect about the same with Diagon Alley.

I hope it follows this schedule as it would be good timing for me. My Birthday is July 18th so I am waiting to get the sets then, then I will only have a few days to wait until the reveal of the D2C.
