Comic Con '08: 9 High Quality HBP Trading Cards
Comic Con '08: 9 High Quality HBP Trading Cards A couple weeks ago, we told you about a set of Half-Blood Prince trading cards being given away at Comic Con 2008. The nine cards had all-new photos from Half-Blood Prince that we haven't seen before.

Confession time: I won the auction before posting it on MuggleNet to be sure that we had them to make high quality scans. Sure enough, the cards arrived yesterday and they're now available in great quality for your viewing pleasure:

- Draco looking onward.
- Dumbledore startled why holding a memory.
- Molly and Arthur Weasley startled outside The Burrow.
- Harry and Ron in a corridor.
- Harry and Hermione having a talk.
- Harry and Slughorn.
- Tonks, Molly, Arthur, and Lupin.
- Young Dumbledore.
- Young Dumbledore in conversation.
- The back of each card, saying a set of 90 cards will be released this November.

What would you have done if you hadn't won the auction?


Posted by ambulance Aug 8th 2008

Everyone looked fierce. This movie is going to be good.


Posted by tvh33 Aug 8th 2008

they're awesome


Posted by Janey Aug 8th 2008

Awesome!!!! I love the one of Draco. He looks so angry and scared all at the same time. I can't wait to see this movie! Woot!


Posted by hpninjaskills Aug 8th 2008

OMG. I'm like rolling on the floor laughing by butt off at Dumledore's supposed "startled" face! LOL. It`s more like "How dare you steal my socks?!!?!?!" Anyway, now that I've recovered from that hysterical picture, I`m absolutely THRILLED to see the Tonks & Lupin picture. (: & that's Ginny behind Molly & Arthur, right ?! It seems like it is to me. :] *Whew. I gotta go laugh at DD`s face one more time ...

Harry's hair looks ... odd. x3


Posted by hermione93 Aug 8th 2008

awesome!!! the cards are really cool!!!!!!!!!!! top ten!


Posted by xJujax Aug 8th 2008

Thats awesome!! I agree, this movie is gonna be great, all the pictures look amazing and the teaser trailer looked SO good. I can't wait till November!


Posted by zeusfriend Aug 8th 2008

Andrew I am wondering what booth was auctioning off the cards. Was it WB? Thanks for sharing!


Posted by hooked_on_Harry Aug 8th 2008

how cool are these?!?!?!? Not sure if i can wait til Nov. anyone know where they'll be sold? or if they'll be sold? Oh, and Andrew, congrats on your winning these!!! (top 10!)


Posted by hermione93 Aug 8th 2008

the one with molly and arthur and ginny its definately the attack at the burrow. and what was with that gown thingy that molly was wearing??????? the one with dumbledore is odd


Posted by graceless1986 Aug 8th 2008

Oh, baby. These are so cool!


Posted by chommy Aug 8th 2008

When does the Burrow get attacked?


Posted by hermione93 Aug 8th 2008

david heyman (as he always does) added a retarded scene in hbp movie where the burrow gets attacked


Posted by chommy Aug 8th 2008

... why?


Posted by hermione93 Aug 8th 2008

to show the people who doesnt read the books that no place is safe since voldemort came back-even the burrow


Posted by HarrilyEverAfter Aug 8th 2008

OME! Yayyyy! Dumbledore DOES have a purple coat, even if his suit isn't purple! yay


Posted by acciohagridxo Aug 8th 2008

woww thanks andreww !


Posted by sarahh729 Aug 8th 2008

i still think that the one of ron and harry not looking pleased in the hallway fits the whole *spoilers ahead* ginny and dean scene. anyone else agree?


Posted by Hermowninny Aug 8th 2008

Ha, I wonder how much he had to pay for these. Anyway, they're nice; though, Young Dumbledore doesn't exactly look "young" does he?


Posted by levans Aug 8th 2008

Looks pretty good, except Slughorn is NOT fat enough >/


Posted by rooon Aug 8th 2008

Cool! : ) : ) : ) : )


Posted by hannahpeck Aug 8th 2008

I agree with levans. The actor who portrays Professor Slughorn is not nearly fat enough. He is supposed to be short, too. Oh well. this movie looks amazing anyways. :)


Posted by thepottermermaid Aug 8th 2008

Oh, I can imagine a scene with the Molly and Arthur and Molly, Arthur, Tonks and Lupin shots! I'm guessing that Molly hears a noise, Arthur goes to the door to check, and then Tonks and Lupin come check, and then BAM! out jump the Death Eaters, possibly Greyback to maul Arthur. But I haven't really put much thought into it yet. =]


Posted by tiassa Aug 8th 2008

Thank you andrew, we all owe you money now. Err...Tonk's hair? Someone will soon ask me if that's such a big deal and I have to say that it isn't. It is not a big deal to make it pink.


Posted by CROOKSHANKS99 Aug 8th 2008

congrats andrew for getting these.and there cool. i


Posted by chommy Aug 8th 2008

Your mind's in Disturbiaaa!


Posted by piper1871 Aug 8th 2008

I agree with sarahh729 that the scene of Ron and Harry in the hall, fits the Ginny and Dean scene. When I first saw that card, I thought they both looked like they saw something they didn't want to.


Posted by piper1871 Aug 8th 2008

I just noticed something. In the picture of Arthur and Molly standing outside the Burrow, with Ginny in the backround, it looks like she is wearing the robe that's she is wearing in the teaser trailor. So this has to be part of the attack on the Burrow.


Posted by Moonpye Aug 8th 2008

Tiassa, Tonks' hair isn't pink because she spends most of the 6th book in the depths of depression which, you might recall, effects a metamorphagus' ability to change their appearance.


Posted by chommy Aug 8th 2008

Oooh, piper, that would be neat. She'd be part of the battle.

Posted by evemusings Aug 8th 2008

nice. though young dumbledore still doesn't look very young to me. still hyped up bout the movie lol


Posted by sarahhm3 Aug 8th 2008

Thanks for getting these for us Andrew! :) I love the Molly and Arthur one. Arthur looks really old, actually. And Molly's dress thing isn't the most flattering.


Posted by AccioIrmathy Aug 8th 2008

AHHH!!! I want the cards! Haa they look awesomely amazing. Cant wait till the movie :)


Posted by AccioIrmathy Aug 8th 2008

Oh yeah and Tonks looks very 80's or 90's with her hair like that :P... well to me at least. And Lupin looks less shabbier. BUT SERIOUSLY! Hermione's hair should be bushier!! Not pretty and in neat curls. It should be frizzy and bushy and whatnot. Gr... I love Emma Watson but I think when acting, she should be less dramatic with it. But still... yeah, uhm... These cards ar great :)


Posted by guyperson Aug 8th 2008

The lighting in the orphanage ("Young Dumbledore in conversation.") looks much different than in the teaser. It's so bright :0


Posted by AmandaB Aug 8th 2008

Wow, how about Hermione's hair!? I'm joking, i'm joking. Nice pictures.


Posted by AliciaJonae Aug 8th 2008

they're pretty good! haha, has anyone seen the picture from the countdown on mugglenet.com? It looks really weird to see Ron in a quidditch helmet! I CAN'T WAIT For November 21st (day before my BDAY!) to come! :D *Accio Nov 21st!* lol


Posted by chommy Aug 8th 2008

@Alicia: That pic is really old ...


Posted by hpninjaskills Aug 8th 2008

AliciaJonae - That picture was released a month ago. :P


Posted by severus_1215 Aug 8th 2008

in the first two movies,they seemed to do almost everything according to the books.but since the third one up,they kinda changed alot.like hermione's hair isn't bushy anymore and in OotP harry isn't so...angsty.like,he doesnt yell alot or anything like in the book.but i think HBP will be the best HP movie yet...except for the extra scene.although that might be good to.I NEED THOSE CARDS :p


Posted by chommy Aug 8th 2008

@serverus: That's what we said about OotP ... and look how it came out.


Posted by rooon Aug 8th 2008

104 days until the movie!!!! : ) : ) : ) : )


Posted by _Kettleburn_ Aug 8th 2008

You're such a geek- I love you, Andrew!


Posted by rooon Aug 8th 2008

: ) Does anyone know if there is a hp trailer before mama mia! ???? Thanks! : )


Posted by hermione93 Aug 8th 2008

how much were those cards???????


Posted by weasleyisdaking10 Aug 8th 2008

OMGG AWSOMEE ! i am going to get them ALL !! haha


Posted by Rose37 Aug 8th 2008

Alll THAT I CAN SAY ABOUT ALL OF THESE CARDS, IS WOW!!! JUST WOW!!!


Posted by merrymarge Aug 8th 2008

Did bubblegum come with the trading cards? Last year, my local grocery store sold chocolate frogs with the wizards' cards. This was before Order of the Phoenix movie came out. I wonder if they will sell the trading cards (with bubblegum) before HBP movie comes out.

Is Dumbledore right that Hogwarts sorts its students into Houses too soon - while the kids are too young?
