Harry Potter Figures

<< < (3/5) > >>

Brian:
I was just reading this article covering the UK Toy Fair and the UK's Cards Inc. line of Harry Potter toys coming up this year.  Although we won't have them here in the states, and I certainly don't need something else to collect anyways, the line itself sounds pretty cool.  Details in the article if interested, but there is mention of a large "Great Hall" playset, as well as smaller playsets of the Gryffindor common room and the Room of Remembrance.  Apparnetly these can be combined, and over the life of the line, you'll be able to "build" Hogwarts.  Something we've always hoped for in the SW line.  Sounds like it could be pretty cool, if it all works out.

The Harry Potter figures NECA will be putting out are freakin' *incredible*.  They had packaged versions of the first series (Harry, Death Eaters, Dementor and Voldemort) as well as 2-up prototypes of Harry, Ron, Hermione and Sirius (all from Order of the Phoenix) as well as Snape, Hagrid and some other oddball dude that looks like he has a unicycle shoved up his pie hole.  :)  One thing I'm really looking forward to is the Riddell Grave site...its base attaches to Harry's and Voldemort's bases in order to make a diorama.  Pretty nice.

Some of the pics turned out lousy (as was typical thanks to my shoddy camera), but here's what I got:

I was just reading through a newsletter from BigBadToyStore, and I guess I didn't realize that NECA is also going to be releasing their Harry Potter figures in the 3 3/4" Scale.  Like I've said before, I don't need something else to collect, but it would be kind of neat to have a collection of these in that scale.  Oh well, there's enough stuff coming out this year the way it is :).

Brian:
TheGD.com has some pics up previewing more of the Harry Potter 3 3/4" line coming from Cards, Inc.  These look pretty cool, but from what I understand that they are U.K. only.  Probably just as well, because if they were released here, I might have trouble not picking up at least a few of them.  Not necessarily sculpting on NECA's quality, but they look good and are more toys than statues.

Edit: You can also see the pics at Cards Inc.'s Official Site.

Nicklab:
They're certainly a bit more posable, but I think the NECA sculpts are much better by far.
