James, from what I can tell you have already been proven right.  I have
spotted this Scala foam holding 1x1 plate in of the smaller Harry Potter
sets the last 3 in the series.

4721   1 in pink on top of orange wall

4722  4 in pink, 2 on aqua mantle invert slopes, 1 on orange chair, 1 on 1x1
regular orange plate holding marron star fabric on
mabe in orange?as feet of structure covered by maroon star fabric?

4723  1 in pink between grey owl and end of purple pole/stand

There may be more, but these are the ones that stood out...
