I don't think they'll bother with the bottom half of the robes. The mini-figs will just have normal legs, maybe with a cloak. Look at how the Imperial Guards were portrayed in #7166: (URL) that outfit didn't qualify for a new robe portrayal what (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.harrypotter)

(...) I disagree. Broomstick riding is such an integral part of the stories that I expect Lego to alter the piece to allow the minifigure to straddle it. This is not difficult, it simply requires the narrowing of a small part of the handle. The (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.harrypotter)

I hate top say it but i figfure they are going to take the easy way out. The robed figures will have dress bottom like on the midevil witches, with black capes just as we've seen on the star wars and castle sets. The Broomstick will no doubt be the (...)

(...) Yes! I'm sure it's Hagrid's. Sometime ago, a pic ostensibly of the set of Hagrid's House set was put up on the net, and it was either of a hexagon or octogon in shape, and constructed of tan colored stone - though it could have been wattle.

(...) Since I use Lego to make a European train layout, I'm really rooting for the Hogwarts Express, and lots of Euro style buildings. A castle would be awesome as well. Lots of castles in Europe. Would look great on my layout....... Katie (23 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.harrypotter)
