Coming out of the HP studios, I think my Dad was literally in shock from the price of everything... :redface:

Gonna get the Dobby plush next :awesome:
Bought the 4 editions of each house for the philosophers stone, they're too gorgeous not to get the set :colondollar:
There won't ever be a series like Harry Potter ever again, its so unique. I feel so lucky I was only a young kid when the Philosophers Stone came out, I think it was probably the first ever book I read independently. Reading is so important from a young age to broaden children's imaginations and develop the brain. If only more kids these days picked up a book and got lost inside rather than picking up an ipad or a Iphone. Harry Potter is truly a magical place to get lost in, it really was revolutionary!

Really should they're absolutely stunning! It's pricey but there is a paperback version which is very nice too! :h:

Thanks :h:

ah haha. Im a proud Ravenclaw :smile:
Hi, I'm reading all the books again :smile:. My favorite character is Hermione, I loved her since I read the first book when I was little. And I also loved that Emma watson played her. What's your favorite moment so far?
Harry Potter is one of my favourite book series ever. I love how detailed the world is and how Rowling created characters with a range of personalities, not to mention Hermione's character crushing the patriarchy. I'm a proud Ravenclaw and had no regrets buying the merch at the HP Studio Tour last week (would definitely recommend it, they have the forbidden forest in there now and the original costumes in for the summer!!)
