Actually, the reason Star Wars has replaced Space isn't because of Lego,

Bummer, eh? At least the SW sets come with good parts.

I see that there is a few different possibilities that are most likely, in my
opinion. I mean these possibilities may seem logical or off the wall. Of
course I haven't even read a harry potter book   -:)

So what do you think of these SEPERATE ideas?

Comments below then.

0- It's obvious that we can expect some really new nice minifigs!

Sounds good to me!  Any new styles for peasants are welcome :^)


1- Harry Potter line will be a new theme and not eliminate any other
(unlike SW) (like time cruisers, adventures or arctic) --i believe arctic will
very soon be going the way of time cruisers--

Unlikely, TLC has only so many moulding machine to manufacture sets,
so when something new arrives something old goes away.


2- HP line will put the castle theme on hiatus(though people have mentioned
that the books may be more modern time based than the castle theme?) --ninja
put castle on hiatus for a while-- lego has a lot of themes nowadays many have
been cancelled (pirates, space -maybe it'll come back when they run out of SW
ideas-, time cruisers,town related subthemes.  --- I HOPE CASTLE NEVER GOES
THE WAY OF THE PIRATES ---

Some people (myself included) have always though Ninja IS Castle
(truth there you know).  I also hope that Castle never goes the way of
Pirates.


3- HP line will compliment the castle theme nicely with no emphasis on
soldiers -I mean, I do not know if there are even soldiers in the books.
(perhaps like bringing back he ideas of lego wizards -and magical items-,
peasants and creatures)

Peasants, peasants, peasants! Mwhahaahahahahahahaaaaa! :^)
Soldiers I GOT!


4- fill in the blank i can't think of anything..

Really? why include #4 at all then?


NTFH,

huh? not familiar with the above.

Wes

Thanks for posting, do so again, soon perhaps?
All other themes are just spare parts for Castle!
