Official Harry Potter Figure Discussion Thread

Toy anxiety has parted out the Luna figure, which is strange since no one has posted pics of it in hand. I guess it shipped and maybe no one ordered it? Haha

 

[WolfBoy]

I think Luna looks decent

It seems more in line with the prototype compared to how Ginny was.

Looks like Bellatrix is joining the 1/8 line:

That is so random...and why? Lol

 

[The Green Goblin]

Gotta get all the money out of the license before they lose it.

They sculpt these digitally so they can just shrink the stuff they've already made.

Lose it to who though? That is the question. Or will it simply be the end of potter 1/6

Hot Toys by the looks of it.

LOL ...

Yeah I doubt Hot Toys would find this to be a lucrative line. Maybe some heavy hitters but that is it. I also can’t imagine Newt and Grindelwald were a hot sell for Hot Toys either. I happily preordered those, but I bet those will end up discounted later.

I think they banked hard on it being a better film than it was. And well...yeah. We know how that went.

Plus we've got JK Rowling retconning everything and that's not being recieved favorably.

Just seems to me that HP has passed it's prime. Which is something I think people have been struggling to come to terms with. It's more akin to LOTR than Star Wars in longevity I think.

I was just thinking, with how much star ace loves to reuse things to make other figures, I am surprised they havent made Fred and George. Obviously not two huge characters but still wouldnt mind adding them to the collection and we know star ace would love being able to use that head sculpt twice.

If they were going to reuse stuff, I would like it if they reused the Warwick Davis body and made some other goblins and professor Flitwick. The Griphook figures are actually pretty good aside from the non articulated knees.

 

[Magnusstewardson]

Don’t worry about it too much I’m sure the St Patrick’s Day Griphook is right around the corner.

Lol. Seriously though this figure would be a great base to make the Leprechaun.

 

[Magnusstewardson]

I’m sure someone, somewhere is working on it, and I do hope they share pictures when it’s done.

[The Green Goblin]

Incredible!

They made a bad sculpt worse by adding rooted hair! 2.0 indeed! -2.0!


My 6 inch SH Figuarts Snape has a dead on likeness to Alan Rickman. It's a pity that that line appears to have died because people didn't support the only line that was producing quality Harry Potter action figures.

 

[ryguyslytherin]

Oh god...that Snape has got a really bad wig / rooted hair whatever that thing is on top.

I'm surprised nobody here noticed the new Santa Harry figure coming out with a snowman in the background of one of their new facebook posts. I didn't post the photo of it because I didn't want to waste more time talking about holiday rehashes. This line went from a great start to now whatever holiday attire they can whore out old sculpts with.

I don't know about all of you but I really can't wait for Santa Hagrid this Spring!!

 

[The Green Goblin]

Oh god, I just saw Santa SS Harry. Someone take the license away from these guys, already.
