I want to seek these 3, but really not sure about it, after experiencing the Hot Toys quality

Also the Hermione one looks better than the others, on-par with Hot Toys quality, yet, Harry and Ron are a bit lacking, I wonder if Hermione came later on, and that's the reason for the discrepancy

In any case, I would appreciate some guidance

None of the other franchises touched my hear as much as Harry Potter did, so it would be nice to have the figures, if they won't disappoint

It's because the sculptor for Hermione used to work for Hot Toys. That's why she looks so amazing compared to the others in the line.

Even though Harry and Ron are a bit lackluster, I think these are still worth picking up of you're a fan of the series. They're decent looking figures and all the little accessories are great. Also, I don't think we'll see other Harry Potter figures of the same scale, quality and price point anytime soon.

K.A. Kim sculpted Hermione and she is considered to be one of the best sculptors in 1/6 figures. She sculpted some of the best Hot Toys figures BD Robcop among others and the Blitzway Fight Club and upcoming Ghostbusters figures...I saw Ron and Harry in person for the first time last week and was pleasantly surprised by how great they looked versus the pictures.

Ah, thanks for letting me know, it makes a lot of sense

I found this picture of 3 together: https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=153457&p=8406636&viewfull=1#post8406636

Indeed they make a nice trio

I thought about getting only the Hermione, yet it would be a bit awkward, especially when this is released: https://www.sideshowtoy.com/collectibles/disney-belle-hot-toys-903028/

I have the trio, but Ron and Harry are in their civilian clothes. Ron is actually pretty good, Harry is not bad but Hermione takes it. Happy to have them. Haven’t felt the need to expand past that though.
