who wouldn't want to dry themselves off with Harry Potter??!!!
I like the idea of a towel but I did not like any of these three designs. They need something more current to go with HBP or DH. Also, I think they are too expensive like all the HP merchandise is. I will wait until some one sells them on Ebay for half the price. :)
I like the Dumbledore's Army one the best, but I also like the Marauder's Map one. Not really caring for the "Solemnly Swear" one. Too boring. Also, mlc872, this is the movies, not the books, so DH stuff is out the window, although I do agree they should have something HBP for the movie in July. I suggested to them that they do a Triwizard Champions one from GoF. I'd totally buy that.
I love the towel idea! But I agree, Order of the Phoenix is over, we need to start focusing on the HBP or DH. I've decided to make my own shirt for the Premiere because I haven't seen any shirts I like. I am not a fan of wearing Daniel's face on my shirt.
I like the Marauder's Map towel. The other two are too plain and dull for a Harry Potter piece.
I must say i do like the Marauder's Map one,not feeling the others i must say.The I solemly Swear one is very plain.
Does this mean they will be adding a new water ride for this section of the park? The other areas have water rides, and towels for sale outside of those rides....so ....maybe....
I agree with AnikinJmt I want a GOF triwizard towel or a towel for each champion and how they took on all three challenges or something Kool. Cause no one wants a boring towel or anything boring that has to do with HP and then be charged am arm and a leg for crappy merchandise. They need a Potter fan to come up with ideas and designs cause man whoever they have is clueless on what we fans want.
Question 4 was silly. My response: I know two things about towels that the Warner Brothers corporation should be aware of. 1. Towels are the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. 2. Towels like to get high. They're always asking me if I want to get high with them, but I always tell them, No, I do not want to get high. WB should be aware of the pros and cons of towels, and I hope that my input helps them with their towel marketing. Cheers!
Um...does anyone else think that this is kind of bizarre? Cool...but bizarre... I agree, the Marauder's Map one. But I actually rather liked the 'Mischief Managed' one...can you imagine the expression of non-hp fans when they saw you on the beach with "I solemnly swear I am up to no good" and a bloomin' great wand... :s I know what my friends would think... And by the way, Hiriledhel? You are an awesome person. :) H
$25 is soooo overpriced
i'm thinking an HP towel is pretty random. but i love the map and the mischief managed ones. the DA seems pretty blah and doesn't seem very potterish
Wyrdd. I only like the Marauder's map one. LOL, Hiriledhel, Yes, Always Carry a Towel. I think a towel with Harry on it with his arms spread open would be cool. It would look awesome tanning in Harry's arms. xD
ClosetPotterFan: this article and shop have nothing to do with the theme park run by Universal studios. It is strictly WB merchandising.
really? an HP towel? i mean maybe if he like had his shirt off or something ;]
Lol, is it still April 1st?
... a Draco one...
There needs to be one for each Hogwarts house... I'D LOOOOOOVE A SLYTHERIN TOWEL. ♥ Really, I like the idea of four different towels with the four different House logos on them much better.
i LOVE your idea Pingypong101
Marauders map looks the best and is most relevent foor the current movie , even though this isn't just for that ...
They're way overpriced. I hated the Dumbledore's Army one. There's so much merchandise out right now that has that on it, I find it annoying.

I LOVED the Mischief Managed one. And if it wasn't for that price tag I would certainly buy one.
I LOVE THE "I SOLEMNLY SWEAR" ONE... IT SOUNDS RAUNCHY AND KIND OF PERVERTED WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT :).. THE NON-HP FANS WOULD LOVE THAT... ESPECIALLY THE WAND! ;) ALTHOUGH GIRLS SHOULD WEAR THAT MORE FOR THE JOKE TO BE MORE FUNNIER.
Enough with the April Fools stuff already. It's now the 2nd.
haha hiriledhel... I love the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. my favourite was the da one, and then the 'I solemnly swear I am up to no good.' although non-harry potter fans wouldn't really get it most likely... the marauder's map was okay but I would be more likely to buy one of the others.
I think it's pretty cool!
muggleinNM, I made a Dumbledore didn't die on page 596 t-shirt. Made it on an online store and had it shipped to me, looks really great and it's in Harry Potter writing. It says Front: SPOILER WARNING: DUMBLEDORE DIDN'T DIE ON PAGE 596. Back: He lives on in each and everyone of us, because let's face it, there is a little gay in all of us.
I like the maraurders map one, but i think maybe later on they should make HBP towels with like the chracter posters on them, like Draco, Harry, Dumbledore, Hermione, Ron adn Snape and of course the BEST character of them all...REMUS LUPIN!
hehe i agree Remuslupinismylover... Draco lol:D:D:D
Lolwut. This is worse than some of the Twilight merchandise that's come out. Sure this isn't a late April Fool's Day joke? If it were posted one day earlier, I'd have no doubt that it was a joke... this is sad if it's real.
My favorite one is the Dumbledore's Army towel. It's something I would buy, tbh. The Mauraders Map towel isn't bad, but not the best, and the third one was just too white. I've got a GoF beech towel, so another one would be nice. They make good wall decorations.
at least this isn't edward glitter and bella perfume.
The DA one is completely retarded. What the hell is up with the design. The Marauder's Map is the only one that looks like official merch. That one wins.
Definitely like the Marauder's Map the best. Dumbledore's Army one is alright but not quite as great, and Mischief Managed is way too plain and boring. Hopefully Marauder's wins because I'd definitely consider getting it!
I was thinking about Equus towels hmm... pervy pervy;
Hiriledhel... you are my hero. Also, I like the mischief managed one the best. I always prefer merchandise that has more obscure stuff on it that only die hard fans will get. For example. If there's anyone out there who's seen the British comedy "The IT Crowd" ... I bought a shirt online that just says.. "0118 999 881 999 119 7253" Yes... I am the biggest of ALL the geeks! xx
Hiriledhel, I am glad there is another Douglas Adams fan around! riddleisourkin g, I did the same thing, I placed an order and its all in Dumbledorish writing and it says "Death is but the next great adventure" (why no one has made any merchandise with this quote on it I have no clue, I mean honestly?) Then it has D.A. on the sleeves.
I love the designs especially the maurauders map. But can they make more designs? Harry Potter perhaps? x)

The Marauders, without one of whom the savior of the wizarding world wouldn't have been born, were underrepresented with merchandise until NECA and Warner Bros. began making and selling it, respectively. Please continue the honorable work!
I kinda like them all! sorry...and yes...a bit overpriced. Maybe $19.99? anyway, the only I towel I have was a gift and it shows the boats going over the lake to Hogwarts. I would love to add to my collection of 1! I like a few of the other ideas...maybe each house....maybe the characters...the book covers...oh so many ideas!!!!!
I'll probably buy one, if i do, I'd buy the Mischeif Managed or the Maruader's. I don't really like the DA one. I suggested that they make one with the Hogwarts crest on it, but i just now thought that one with Hedwig on it would be cool too. I do think they are a bit over priced, but they'll sell good anyway. PS. I love your comment Riddlesourking! Too funny!
the marauders is the best one cuz the other ones are too plain...maybe if they fixed them up....
Here's my comments I left with my survey: "I've never liked the DA logo design, and the "Mischief Managed" one looks like some fan art off Cafe Press. :( LOVE the Marauder's Map design and it's authentic to something actually used in the films. Would definitely buy one (or several) of those!!"
The worst thing Warner Brothers did was shut its WB Shop in our mall. They would have made a fortune selling even more HP stuff, and there would have been a set of towels for every movie. These are OK, but seem to have no inspiration...just T-shirt designs put on towels. Also, I agree that after having us wait so long, the towels should reflect the upcoming movies.
I thought House towels would be a pretty obvious thing to do. The Marauder's map was the best of the three. I think if they stick to the great designs from the movie, they can't fail. I'd pay for stuff that looks like its been taken out of HP's world.
i liked them all... but i like the house idea
