Val-E Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Jang seems to have reviewed all the main sets so far. Here´s the one a lot of people are excited about. Quote
Val-E Posted July 4, 2018 Author Posted July 4, 2018 Jump to minute 4 if you want to see how motorisable (or not) it is. 1 Quote
gregpj Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Why does he need 20 mins to do the review? Does the new youtube require you to make content that is painfully long in order to be pushed up the search rankings? I can't watch or listen for that long ... yeesh. 1 Quote
scatmanjack Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Built the Hogwarts Express and put it on LEGO train track along with the King's Cross Station (powered by a passenger car, engine is still stock). Would you believe the Train will not go under the bridge as built in the Instructions? Yep! There is a black smoke stack that is 1/3 brick too tall and hits the underside of the bridge. Fortunately this smoke stack sits on a round 2x2 piece that can be removed to solve the issue... Cannot believe this was released like this by LEGO... 1 Quote

Malachi1984 Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 Out of stock on the lego online shop. Will there be more or is that it for the express? Sent from my SM-G935F using Brickpicker Forum mobile app Quote
southendsox Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 Backorder in the US but shipping September 10. Can't see any way they stop making these now. HP is by far the best selling line for LEGO at the moment and their best chance at having a good financial year. I suspect they will ride the entire HP line through the holidays with the new fantastic beasts movie due out in November. I expect we might even some new sets to be developed. Maybe the HP minifigures end as normal as those seem to have tight 3-4 month runs. Quote
Popular Post dmind Posted October 15, 2018 Popular Post Posted October 15, 2018 Decided to build 4 sets into 1 big train station. Will give it more body by using a Tower Bridge set, and add a glass (curved) roof. 24 Quote
BillyBricks Posted December 13, 2018 Posted December 13, 2018 Other than SAH which has kept it at the $80 price point, this has quietly disappeared from online retailers this week. Quote

It's anoying, but simple mod to make the bridge slightly taller. Quote
zaphoid Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 I want to display my Hogwarts Express on LEGO track. However I've never dealt with LEGO track before. Can anyone tell me how long a single piece of straight track is? or how many pieces I need for this set, thanks Quote

Edit - 4 will just cut it. Edited June 8, 2020 by MusiKyle 1 Quote
