I mentioned it shortly after getting back from Toy Fair. I hadn't noticed any
in the HP sets, but I did catch them in the 3579 NHL Street Hockey (kinda hard
to miss them, since they're part of the rink barrier, and there's very little

Why they haven't had much discussion until now probably has a lot to do with

of grey/dark-grey parts, or any sets with the new fleshtone minifigs, which
really cuts down on the number of people here who would buy either 3579 or 4753

| Yesterday, I purchased set 4753, "Sirius Black's Escape." The main reason I bought it was something that intrigued me from the photos - what looked like a large radius macaroni brick. Sure enough, the set contains 8 of them in (new) dark grey and (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.harrypotter)
