That sucks!

Well, after seeing the movie, I decided I want Hermione's bag and Luna's Dad's necklace. I'll wait until after the holidays to order anything though. Just in case my hubby buys me something.

I asked for all the Artefact boxes for Christmas so if I get one and no one has scanned anything from one by then I'll do it for everyone. Smiley

I like this update very much. The time span between this update and the last was very long so I'm happy this update added to the collection immensely.

Yeah, I only see about 36 wands that I want. YIKES! --- $1026.00 plus the shipping.
(And there's no Professor Lockhart wand, yet. I saw one in the Chicago Exhibit, so I know it exist.)
Not to mention about a dozen or more goodies.

Did anyone end up getting one of the artifact boxes? I'm wondering if the props are any good.

I went to London there last week sometime to see athletics and there is a massive toy store called Hamleys and brought the sister in and on the top floor there wasw the harry potter noble collection with everything there like all the wands artefact boxes etc for sale and they had some displayed in glass cases and in my opinion they seemed low quality i would have bought one maybe two but for they looked very cheap and not well made, that may just be the way i saw them others may have bought them and thought they were great but just my opinion on it

Bitsy and I both have all three boxes and are very pleased. The boxes themselves are very nice. And I don't just mean the contents inside, but the actual boxes are gorgeous. The only reason the contents "seem" low quality is because a lot of them are paper items. So, they are replicas of the onscreen items, but they are paper, so how high of a quality are you expecting from that? The Hermione Christmas ornament is gorgeous as is the Yule Ball poster, Quidditch World Cup ticket and Chudley Cannon poster. The Order of the Phoenix photo is fantastic (maybe my favorite item). The wanted poster is poerfect as well as many other items in there (like the DA list, which I also love). The Howler is disappointing, as it is in a brown envelope, not red. The Platform ticket is not as shiny as I expected. So, there were a few negative features, but all in all, I was very pleased with them and love having them as a part of my collection. I thought they were each worth the money, but I am a die hard fan, so in the end it is up to you. I own a TON of Noble Collection items, and in my opinion, all of their stuff is VERY nice.

Like Sara said, the boxes are beautifully made and I absolutely loved the contents of each box.  The posters (Wanted, Yule, Chudley Cannons) are exceptionally well done--to me, they are frame worthy.  The Order picture is lenticular and even has a crease to give the impression of it being folded, like the one in the movie.  The Christmas Ornament is one of my absolute favorites--it's going on the tree!

There are other items like the luggage tag, Gryffindor patch, Love Potion bottle with box, etc. that are fantastic! Sara pointed out the weak points, but even they are still fun. 

I was elated with everything. I've never been disappointed with anything from the Noble Collection.  Smiley

And if you are disappointed, Noble will gladly accept returns. I had an item sent to me damaged and was able to get a new one shipped before returning my old one. When I got the new one, it also had a return label and I was able to send the damaged item back in the new items box at no cost to me. Their customer service is great.

Thanks for the info!  It's too bad the the howler is brown, but I'll probably end up getting at least one of the boxes eventually.  Now for another question.  They have wall mountable wand stands for Harry, Hermione, Voldemort and Dumbledore.  Didn't they used to have one for Ron also?
