Did pieces fall off it that look like they didnt come from anywhere.
When I moved house a few brown flat pieces fell out the bottom......could never find where they came from.

Dont think so. I do think I've lost (somehow) part Of my damn snowspeeder (not in the move). The fins underneath. Snowspeeder is one of my favs!

Those fins are so irritating. I found when i was putting mine on the shelf it was so easy to know one off and not realise.

Any recomendations on where to buy extra odd pieces of lego? I've previously used Ebay but seems to be hard to find things, plus it's a lot more expensive than I recall. Brickshop.co.uk looks to have the pieces I'm after and looks an acceptable price, any negative experiences there?

Bricklink.

If it's a fairly recent model, you might be able to get them free from Lego themselves.

Cheers guys. It's not that I'm missing pieces, just want some extras of specific things to make my own thing. So asking Lego for some seems cheeky 
I'll have a look around on Bricklink. Not the nicest website to browse around!
Edit... Found a single seller selling all the various bits that I want but don't need and made an order!

Go in to a Lego store. The one in Manchester always rummages through their spares out back for me
New Lego Hogwarts revealed at 6000 pieces? Definitely buying.

Never been a potter fan but I might have to change my ways for this one.

I wish they did removable backs rather than cross section. That was my big gripe with disney castle.

I feel a bit cheated by the micro-figures. I guess it gives it scale, but they've never had a problem fitting functions and play value in at minifig scale, so it seems a little lazy.

hogwarts is so cool!!!!
I guess the minifigures thing is more for display?
but the level of detail in the rooms is crazy!
Also, it makes the UCS falcon look like reallllllyyyyyyy bad value.
3.5p per brick cheaper!
I imagine the HP license is cheaper than Star Wars.

True but UCS Falc was targetting Adults paying thousands for second hand bricks and kits. Hogwarts is much more child friendly.

Either way it still ends being expensive to be a stars wars enthusiast and a HP enthusiast (am loathed to use the word......nerd)
Got forbid they ever come out with a LOTR Minas Tirith, Helms Deep, Barad-Dur at the same sort of level/piece count....

Oh God, if they hit up LOTR again I'd have a crisis.
