Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 07:51:24

maybe they will make more than 15 tshirts so when it shrinks like the Quidditch World Cup shirts you can actually buy another one. if anyone does have an XL of that shirt and wants to sell find me on myspace. lucidswirl. cant wait for the DA jackets and belt buckles at hot topic.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 08:05:59

wow. i wonder if that means theyll have more CLOTHES and less COSTUMES except at halloween... cool!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 08:38:08

thats cool. I wonder what there going to make. Maybe like less weird looking hp clothes cause some of the stuff Ive seen...wow

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 08:56:07

I ususally dont restrict myself to age limits....... but now maybe they will make stuff suited for 19 year olds.......those costumes designed for 8 year olds are getting a little tight! lol

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 08:59:10

I have no clue who they are, but I need HP merchandise that isnt a 26 piece puzzle thats super glued to my bedroom wall at the moment.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 09:37:04

Wow, thats beyond awesome! For those of you who dont know what NECA is, or have never seen their products, were in for a treat. Just google them, go to there site and see the things theyve done with other movies like Pirates of the Caribbean, and Lord of the Rings. Unlike most companies, when they make action figures and sculptures, they actually look like the actor who played the character. Im not kidding, were finally going to have top quality collectables! Im so excited to see what they come up with! :DDD

SSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD=)

Cool! Finally something for older fans...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 11:43:56

Cool! Hope there are things those of us who are a wee bit more seasoned (read: in our 40s) to use! ;)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 11:49:06

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 12:19:14

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 13:10:46

I just went on to the NECA website and it had some of the toys they were going to make. They said there going to make action figures, plush,mugs, wall decor all inspired by the characters,and creatures in HP.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 14:07:48

cool!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 17:20:40

gooood, when will they start selling things so i can spend more money i dont have? :-D

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 17:57:51

Thats great news! Althought I never buy any harry potter stuff lol, but thats cool cause the merchandise is now targeting to adults, so the next movies are going to be targeted for teens and adults! No more kiddie things

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 21:24:17

thats awesome. Ive been wanting some HP stuff and some of the only thigns I can find really are to little kid. not that Im embaressed to buy it, but it just doesnt appeal to me very much.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 23:04:21

SWEET!!! Im a huge merchandise collector, so im super excited.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-28 17:40:38

sweet. I love the HP stuff they have out now. but it might be a little better if it was directed at some of the older fans. as many of us older fans have grown up with harry potter, and sometimes feel ridiculous sporting "kiddie" looking harry potter stuff. me personally, I dont mind. but still it will be awesome. :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-30 07:42:24

Yay! I love Luna Lovegood! Now that thers a new company, i hope theyll make a costume for her! By the way, it would be pointless to just repeat what Lily_Fea said, because she said it all!^^
