That's cool of you.... I just got my filch in the mail and once again its was packed into a box that hardly fit it. So the card was damaged. I just cant win.. Do you U.K. seller's hate us or something? I never have this problem in the states... Maybe I'll get lucky one day. I don't know why they do it lol. I've had countless packages that have turned up damaged...so annoying. I ordered a McGonagal figure from a Ebay store once, it turned up and the arm had fallen off. I thought it may have been the seller, but he/she displayed a picture of the figure holding her wand in the air. I was gutted . Don't have it any more. Anyway, from what i hear, a guy named Alex who runs an Ebay store in the UK is getting some HBP figures soon. He's already got Bellatrix and various others. Not to mention a Great Hall playset going for £11 AND he ships ANYWHERE lol stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/toydreamsuk__W0QQ_armrsZ1To save yourself looking for the HP figures, just click on the "Harry Potter" link on the left hand side I'm still checking for you

amazon doesnt sell internationally. you have to find certain sellers that will sell to the us. you probably just got lucky
thats the person i use on ebay. he told me he wasnt going to be getting the new figures for maybe 1 or 2 months. also he wont ship playsets to the us cause of the packaging costs.
but thank you for looking for us Bellatrix Lestrange Fan ;D

The only older Popco toys I need now are the Common Room with Ginny, Stan and the Knight Bus case, Harry with the broomstick and 3 of the variant Death Eaters. The common room will be tough to get cheaply and the others aren't that important to me. Especially Harry.

You're welcome, and i'm still looking Shame you're from the USA, because i just came across the night bus (with Stan), Great Hall, Gyffindor Commong room, 8 figures (Delores, Dementor, Hermione, Voldemort, 2 Death eaters, Harry and Bellatriz) and a wand for £30. Immediate paypal required, was going to buy but someone snapped it up just as i saw it So gutted . And i've got some news regarding the HBP line. I sent an email to Re:creation to ask them when the two figure packs (the ones with the "dark arts" characters and the ones with the "defensive Magic" characters) would be released. I also dropped a line about the Gryffindor Common room and the Great hall. They said... Hi I am very sorry but we are not getting the Great hall or the Common Room.
We only have 4 lines, Basic Action Figure assortment, Action figure 2 pack assortment, Wizard wands battle set and mad Eye Moody & Interactive wand set.
I’m afraid we will not be getting any other Harry Potter merchandise.
Regards
Jenny Porch
Does this mean no "Dark Arts" set? I was going to leave the death eaters, Fenrir and Voldemort and buy that instead

What does everyone think of the Room of Requirement playset? Is it any good? I've been told it's poor compared to the Great Hall and the Gryffindor Common room, i've also been told that it can be turned into anything (with good customisation skills), so i just wanted to know if it's any good Also can any of you give me some advice. I'm in two minds whether to buy something or not. That seller on ebay said i can have a Cho Chang figure WITH the Great Hall for £24.90 all together (including P&P), but i also don't have a Voldemort (well i do, but it's damaged ), i've set myself a target to only buy one item from the stores (cause i usually go over board and spend too much), so which one do you think would be best in my collection? Voldemort or the Great Hall with Cho? The Voldemort is £4 by the way, and advice would be great

I would go with the great hall because then you have a place to show your figures.

Cho is a rare figure cause she was never released separtly. You can always get a voldemort and death eaters at a later date. And the playsets were rare. But then again cho is not a very popular figure cause of the skulpt and her head doesn't move and the elbow joints. I would see if you could get a voldemort and great hall instead.

Does the Great Hall come with McGonigal? If it does I would get that then. It's really nice. If it doesn't come with her , I would wait for a complete set, unless you have no interest in her. The Mcgonigal figure by itself goes for a lot, so in the long run you wouldn't be saving any money. The room of requirement is nice except for the cardboard floors. I don't have the common room , so I can't compare them. The room of requirement is kinda empty, but that's how it's supposed to be and it's great for displaying all the kids together. I usually see them come up pretty cheap from time to time.

I tried to get a deal with Voldemort but he said no It doesn't come with McGonagal, it's all empty, just a table and a figure. The figure is Harry, but the guy said i could have Cho instead for an additional £4. So all together it's £25. Which one should i go for? The Voldemort figure is in a seperate box and comes with the two death eaters, it's going at £15

The better deal is the great hall because of all the sales that people have been getting on just the figures. Go for the great hall, see if he will include the stand and sorting hat (if you want that)

Oh well, i suppose Voldemort may be released again..or better still, he's findable. The Great Hall and Cho appear to have been wiped from Toy stores all over the UK No one can get them any more
