Nearly Headless Nick and Tonks just arrived today in the mail and they look increible! The fact that nick's body is see-through is incredible! Great additions and Cedric should be here any minute via UPS!

Get some pictures up, stat! Bellatrix will be here tomorrow. I'll snap a photo and show her off. Then Wormtail will arrive. After that we'll have a cool down for a little while. Then we'll add Sirius (azkaban) and Malfoy death eater. Trewlaney whenever she comes. And slowly after that, add any that we feel we can't go without. But we're really going to be dropping off. It's been nice/fun and all, but it can get costly. If it wasn't for a great friend who gave me 5 busts for pennies, we wouldn't have as nice of a collection. But others aren't able to give those kinds of deals.

Anyways, I can't wait to see pics Two-face!

Matner, I hope that Snape's paint app is good for you. It's not the greatest, but he's a joy to have.

 

[Two-Face]

Do you guys think $150 is too much for the Dobby bust?

Considering the only other one I saw was $399.00 I think you're good. We paid $175 plus shipping for Ron Quidditch. Dobby is a fabulous bust. Go for it.

My new Snape bust from Razors Edge will be here on Thursday. I love how it gets to me so fast from New York! Pics will follow later on,due to the fact I'll be at work when it gets here.

Sounds like we will be getting a Neville minibust.....finally!!!! Mr & Mrs Weasley aren't looking promising though (gutted)

Very happy about Neville and quite mad about the Weasley's. And I wonder when the Harry SDCC bust will be up for order. Anyone know how GG does their SDCC orders?

I know what you mean about the Weasleys. I can't think who else they have in mind to produce above the Weasleys. Maybe we'll still get an Umbridge, Neville is pretty much certain. I hope they aren't pushing a side the Weasleys for yet another Harry? Wouldn't mind an older Hermione though to go with the older Ron & Harry.
I don't know how GG handle SDCC, but I'll have to use ebay. Believe it or not it's been cheaper than ordering direct from the US by the time I've paid shipping/custom & handling fees

I'm going to have to have someone pick it up for me. We refunded our tickets for this year since need to save.

As seen in the May edition of Squirrel's Corner from Gentle Giant, the Harry Potter mini bust line is "slowing down as the last movie comes out this summer." Well, I do hope that simply means they will continue to make the mini busts, just maybe less frequently, as opposed to stopping the line completely. I fear that day

In my spare time, or you know, work time, I played around with ideas for mini busts Gentle Giant could *cough, should, cough* do (according to me). And I just wanted opinions from all the lovely freaks on here. Any of these suggestions something you would want to see in the HP mini bust line?

Quidditch Ginny Weasley
Quidditch Draco Malfoy
Arthur Weasley
Molly Weasley
Voldemort with Nagini
Harry Potter Year 1 wearing Sorting hat
Umbridge
Kingsley Shacklebolt
Viktor Krum
Fleur Delacour
Hermione with Crookshanks
Narcissa Malfoy
Professor Slughorn
Professor Flitwick
Professor Sprout
Professor Quirrell


Of course I came up with more. It's not hard to, there being so many awesome character in this series. But these were the ones I most want them to do. It will never happen, but i can dream...

 

[Two-Face]

^^^YES! I would love to see more proffessors and members of the order, specifically shacklebolt and mundungus. Umbridge would be awesome too! I personally want to see both ministers of magic-but i KNOW thats not gonna happen

 

[BuffBuff]

See, i HATE Mundungus. So, i really wouldn't want a bust of him. Of course... if it appeared to be a highly anticipated item if it ever came out, of course we'd be buying it. Lol.

I think the quidditch Harry and Ron are just fabulous, and would definitely want more of those. It'd get a bit tiring after a few of them I suppose, but seriously, a Quidditch Ginny, Draco, maybe Oliver Wood, and whatnot... yeah, I'd buy those. FOR SURE!

 

[BuffBuff]

btw Two-Face, I love your avatar. Makes me laugh each time i hear it in my head

 

[Two-Face]

i'd buy pretty much any GG bust that has great detail and a low run because they seem to be getting lower and lower with pettigrew at just 520, so i'd need to be happy with it before i buy it if that makes sense lol - and thanks about the avatar i just saw it on google images one day, and i thought i NEED to use this!!

 

[BuffyGirl]

Just wanted to say that it seems we acquired Filch for a very good price. A friend has offered it to us at a price we cannot refuse. Bellatrix arrived a while ago. Haven't opened her but from what I can see through the little window, she's perfection.

 

[Two-Face]

OMG I AM INSANELY JEALOUS RIGHT NOW!!!!! Does he have 2?

 

[BuffyGirl]

Sadly no. But I am glad that he came to me with it because we have had so many cat bills and we just can't really afford the high price, and he's willing to be patient with us.

Anyways...I think Wormtail is going to be worth a lot more once he's sold out.

 

[Two-Face]

yeah i hear wormtail is only 520-ive actually just started a new thread if anyone wants to sell a filch bust because this place seems to be better than ebay!!

 

[Dashopkinsfan]

Go for it.

Did just that -- picked it up for on ebay! can't wait to get it!
