Just as an update... the merch site at UO is back up, but when you click on the Wizarding World tab it says, "Coming Soon". So basically, they updated the site just to let us know that it was coming soon. :bang:
How much is the chess set? I'm such a nerd; I'd totally get it if it were anywhere close to reasonable (which I seriously doubt).
I think it's like $400
im so glad that this conversation ends on wands because i have been wondering about them.
they have all 12 birthday wands but do they have them available in all 3 cores? or do they not specify core?
i want a rowan wand but it needs to have a dragon heartstring core. lol.
My daughter was picked in Ollivanders for a wand to choose her. The wand keeper told her the Hawthorn wand that chose her has a unicorn core.
Can someone check if they have the Hawthorn wand in, and if it is take a picture?
I bought the mug, but afterward really considered how much of a hassle it is. Luckily, I brought paper towels in my backpack to clean it out and store it...I knew I'd be back early next month, and knew I'd want to have some more (and I liked the souvenir aspect). But refills are expensive considering all the other speciality cups get you a discount around the park.
There was a pair in Dervish and Bangs. My eldest daughter picked up the pair and asked a TM if they had any more. The TM was a bit surprised and upset "Don't Touch those. They are movie props. Not for sale. We don't have any for sale." With that my daughter scurried out of the shop. She didn't know they were props, she thought they were for sale.That's kinda cheap, though. I wish they would have just created a short version of the Quibbler. When I went to the Harry Potter Exhibition in Chicago, I'm pretty sure one of the props there was pages from the Quibbler, so they could have made a replica easily.
Not sure if the ones WB Shop sells are plastic or not: http://www.wbshop.com/Harry-Potter-...-Specs/HPEPLUNASP,default,pd.html?cgid=hpcost
Colleen, your pictures were awesome! And WOW! Do you think you have enough pumpkin juice?
I know the correct answer: no
How much are Quaffles?

--- Update ---
I purchased one mug for each of us as we are not from the area. In my park bag I always carry around wet-ones wipes because I hate sticky fingers. I also purchased those clips people use for rock climbing in the camping section and attached two to each of our back packs so we could have our hands free. We used these clips to attach the mugs to our packs along with a few other things.
--- Update ---
I up loaded pictures of some of the merchandise we purchased during our trip. Not sure how this works but I hope it does.

WHERE did you find a Quick Quotes Quill?! I am so jealous, I did not see any!

My sister and I dueling in our robes. I am Ravenclaw, she is Hufflepuff.
I found the Quick Quotes Quill behind the bared register of the Owl Post. Near the sealing waxes and stationairy.
Great picture of you to dueling .
