Demiguise statues

[Alien's Queen]

Is anyone else having issues not being able to collect the demiguise statues? I go to collect them when it's night outside but I can't interact or do anything with them whatsoever and it is getting extremely frustrating because I can't finish the quest. Any ideas on how to fix this glitch so I can collect my statues??

Yeah, I have the same issue. Just started to play this game, but cannot interact with the statues at all

Does your character say anything when you're near one? In the day time they should say "what's this? A Demiguise!" and at night they say "Mine now, Demiguise".

If they say notihng, have you actually had the quest to collect them yet? The one where you get Alohomora.

Have you tried waiting? Sometime I noticed it looked like night but was not quite there.
Open the map and press F to wait, it will change night to day and vice versa.

Those last two replies are the most helpful:
Demiguise statues don't transform into the glowing version unless the unlocking charm quest started (completion not necessary, but you won't get the better versions without completing two stages of the quest line) and it's actually at night.

It can look like night, but it might not be quite nighttime, yet. If you at least started the unlocking charm quest, use the wait feature on the map screen to turn it to nighttime. Don't just let your student stand there expecting the statue to change in front of your student.

The demiguise only activate at night,but you could go on the map and press F, to activate the night mode automatically (on pc, but check on internet, because i could make mistake about the letter to press).
