I received my TRUNK of HP DVDs yesterday. Very nice.
Inclued in addition to the DVDs is a Computer game, a set of Bookmarks and 16 Artbox Cards.
They did not include any cards for OOTP, otherwise we should have had 20 cards.
Anyway the 16 cards have 4 themes each:
1. Actor/Actress
2. Spells and Charms
3. Magical Creatures
4. Defense Against the Dark Arts Professors
I am posting the Magical Creature Pix. The rest are in my Photobucket HP Holiday DVD Cards sub-album (Link below).

Sorcerer's (Philosopher's) Stone, 03 Mountain Troll


Chamber of Secrets, 03 Basilisk


Prisioner of Azkaban, 03 Hippogriff


Goblet of Fire, 03 Hungarian Horntail

It's so odd. When my bro bought the normal DVD set I spotted an advert for this "trunk" inside the cover. A few days later I visited an old friend, a collector of everything HP and she had this trunk all sealed up on the table... I was a devil and encouraged her to open it Wink - it was the first I'd heard of this and thought the cards were great Cheesy

The "trunk" is also one of the nicest HP sets I've seen in a while. Only one thing bugs me - why are some of the portfolios for the DVDs CD sized and some DVD sized?

Only a minor gripe in an otherwise stunning little set (and great cards too Wink)

I was a little put-off by that as well. And that there weren't any OOTP cards. After all, it says five movies, why not 5 sets of cards.? Oh well....

Who are the four actors (excluding the DADA professors) in this set?  I just won an auction for 15 cards and I'm trying to figure out which one I'm missing.  My guess is that it's the Emma Watson card.

You are absolutely correct kbmum. The Emma Watson card is the one that's missing.
The four other actors in this set are Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Michael Gambon and Ralph Fiennes.

I love my HP trunk. I think that it's one of the best DVD sets ever and i have mine displayed with all my HP replicas, busts etc.
The contents are awesome. I know that some people have issues with the way that the DVD's are different sizes but if this is meant to be Harry's trunk with his personal belongings then the DVD cases must be Harry's books and i suppose it would make more sense to have them in different sizes as real books do come in different sizes.
