(...) The press release says that the Harry Potter line of LEGO will arrive shortly before the movie does, in November of 2001.

Weren't these supposed to be part of the 2001 line? Are they moved to 2002, or just later in 2001? I can't get myself to like the books, but the theme does seem promising. I remember seeing a tv interview on 60 minutes when the first Harry Potter (...) (25 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.year.2002)

Then from 1974-77 it was 1 door = 4 bricks high with those minifig stiffs. And (...) (25 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

If Gary Istok builds only to the 60s Town Plan scale, the minifig generation will then appreciate his viewpoint! However, Alpha Team has minifigs. Star Wars has minifigs. (25 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

I think Lego will slowly raise the size of adult minifigures, so by the time Harry Potter comes out, they'll have the normal minifigs to use as children. I Pray not.
