I just hope they use minifigs. With all the new larger figures coming out now, I am really hoping they don't use them just to help reach a younger audience. Bryan Beckwith "jonathan Lill" <jonathanl@myriadweb.com> wrote in message (...) (23 years ago, 7-Apr-01, to lugnet.harrypotter)

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 have been wondering whether they are going to make robed minifigures like harry and friends at school or Dumbledore. With some I can see them getting away with a cape but otherwise it seems hard to avoid. And would they do it like the castle (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.harrypotter)
