Dumbledore.......

Since I didn't add the adult sized dolls in the original Harry Potter line, when Tonner announced he was going to produce the dolls in scale with the Tyler sized dolls I knew I wanted to get all the characters if I was able to swing it. I've been eyeing Dumbledore for a while, waiting for him to go on sale, and finally nabbed him last week.

He's a great likeness. One of Tonner's best character likenesses IMHO. Really looking forward to what he's going to do next in his scale. I'd love to see Snape released in this scale as well..............and both Malfoy's and Beatrix, and Neville and Ginny and so on, and so on, and so on, LOL!

Return to Hogwarts

I am SO glad Tonner decided to revisit the Harry Potter line in a scale that is in size with Tyler's world. I love this new size so much better than the original size. The likenesses of the characters are some of his best as well, as they are in the original size. I received Harry and Ron for Christmas and finally got time to take some pics of them, along with McGonagall.
I am very excited to get Dumbledore when he starts shipping and was glad to see Hermione added for 2011. I can only hope that we get Snape, Ginny, the Malfoy's and the rest of the characters in this new size.

Isn't Ron adorable? He might be my favorite.



And a lost shot of the best friends together.

The Potter crowd........

The family went to see the new Harry Potter movie yesterday and it put me in a bit of a Potter mood, so I decided to play with my indoor lights and take a few pictures of the Potter crowd last night. As I stated before, I never bought all the dolls in the original size. I do have Draco that isn't pictured here, but I don't have any of the adults.

Hubby is getting me the 12" Ron and Harry for Christmas and I can't wait to get Dumbledore as well. Really, really looking for lots more to come in the new scale. That being said, I do love the original dolls too. I think the likenesses were really well done and the costumes are wonderful.

Ginny comes to town........

I've been planning to add Ginny to my Harry Potter collection since her introduction, but I admit to waiting for a sale. When Cherished Friends put her on sale this week I had to go for it.
She arrived today and I took her outside for a few quick pics...............Harry came along and was included in this shot.


I really do like her. She rounds out the shelf in my cabinet devoted to the original Potter collection quite nicely. I"m planning on getting most of the new scale Potter collection as long as my pocketbook holds out. Really looking forward to what comes next.

Professor McGonagall..........

I've been a huge fan of the Harry Potter books and movies since the beginning. I remember being so thrilled to hear Tonner had gotten the license to produce the dolls, and then a bit disappointed when I heard they were going to be a different scale than the Tyler Wentworth line.
I ended up caving and getting Harry, Hermione and Ron from the original line, and then added Draco as well. I never bought any of the adults though, because they were too big for the shelves in my cabinet. At Toy Fair this year, when I heard that Tonner was going to redo the line and make the dolls in scale with Tyler's world, I knew I was going to be in trouble. Recently I brought the first doll to be produced in the new scale , Professor McGonagall.

I really like her! I"m very excited to see Harry and Ron when they start shipping. I have heard that Hermione is definetely coming as well, and I was also told that Tonner confirmed he would be doing Dumbledore in this new size. One can only hope Voldemort, the Elder Malfoy and Bellatrix will be redone in this size as well......................................and how about the rest of the kids. I'm really hoping for Draco at least, as well as maybe Neville? And how about Mr. and Mrs. Weasley............wouldn't that be fun? Yay for Harry Potter!!
