The Wizarding World of Harry Potter's official website has been updated with a new piece of concept art depicting a store in Hogsmeade called Dervish and Banges. From their newsletter, which announced the new art:
Dervish and Banges supplies the Wizarding community with school supplies, Quidditch gear, and magical, wizarding equipment. Here you can purchase authentic and unique items from the world of Harry Potter.
They've also added a new poll: Which would you like to ride, a Chinese Fireball or a Hungarian Horntail? You can always keep track of the latest news from the theme park right here in our info section.

They decided on Dervish and Banges? I didnt even remember what that was. I guess it makes sense since they sell general magic stuff, but it still surprised me.
Also, new poll. I voted for the Horntail. That one looks like it will win for sure. What kind of dragon was it that they actually flew on? I guess that from the cover art people were thinking it was a Chinese fireball (once we realized the eyes were just milky because the dragon was blind). Hmm, maybe I would prefer the fireball then.

Guys, its not going to be the ONLY store in the area.
All sections of that park have at least two themed gift shops.

I just hope they have some really good items for sale there. Hopefully for sale online as well, as many people might not be able to get out to Florida any time soon. Im saving for the trip though!

Mmekocat....haha you are thinking of Flourish and Blotts in Diagon Alley :) They sell books I believe! But Durvish and Banges is in Hogsmeade! Also, Emi_518, they have put the Sectumsempra scene in the HBP!!!! Which is AWESOME!! :)

I think this park will be really great! Its sounding like it will be amazing, the store Idea is really good. But no matter how much we really want everything from the Harry Potter world to be there for us. I do belive they are doing their very best to make this as close as possible for us!!!!

This is good, I hope they are taking in account also the teens, because there are a lot of this age group that can wait to see it, and that also means me.

I really hope that jack-in-the-box does not end up in the store.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-02-26 09:59:28
Keifu --- Im sure theyre spending LOADS of money on this new park area, Im sure itll stay for a long time. I hope so anyways, cause Im not sure when Ill get down there.
The jack-in-the-box is kinda creepy. Can anyone tell what is written on the door frame on the left?

I was freaking out too because I couldnt see any footage of it, but ACTUALLY there is some footage of it in the latest video release by TODAY Australia (a couple news posts down from this one) and you see Draco raise up from the dark bathroom mirror, then it cuts to something else, then it cuts back and draco hurtles a spell at Harry who is standing at the bathroom doorway and harry doges out of the way and prepares to fire back!!! so its there!!!!! YAY
