Hello, I was just looking through all of my HP cards and noticed a film cell card 610 of 900 that has a picture of Harry talking to Mr. Weasley (in the Leaky Cauldron I think) but, the film cell is actually of something totally different ( It's Harry looking down from the huge clock when he didn't get his permission slip signed and is watching everyone go off without him. Are all the film cells different like this??
Thanks for any help..

Do you mean that both film cells are different or just that the cells are different to the picture on the front of the card?

It's more unusual to have the cells matching the card - though you do get them.
There have also been cards that have different scenes on the cells too, again they aren't that common.

Does that answer your query? Wink

Both film cells match each other. It just caught me strange that the cells have nothing to do with the picture on the card. Didn't know if this was a weird thing or not. Thanks for clarifying and thanks for your quick response... Smiley

It is harder to get matching cells to the front of the card, and some actually do have two different cells in it.

Most of the filmcards (for all of the HP sets) have cells that do not match the front of the card.  The cells that do match the front are pretty rare.  I have been working on my POAU filmcard set for nearly 1 1/2 years, trying to get cells that match the image or scene on the front of the card.  Let me tell you, it has been extremely difficult.  I still need three more cards to complete the set.

What 3 do you still need Cindy?

I find that you have to keep us up to date on your wants. I sat with a card in my home for about a month and a half that was just in a spares box that Sara had been hunting for ages - oops!

I noticed on EBay there were 3 film cards that showed hermoine punching draco and each card had different cells. I can see why they did it since there is obviously so much film but, it does seem like it will be a pain to get the cells that match the front of the card...

You have no idea.  On one hand, it's been kind of fun putting together the set.  On the other, it's a major pain in the backside -- I trawl eBay every day and send numerous emails to sellers to find out what images are in the cells.  Some sellers won't respond, which I don't understand since you'd think they'd want to make the sale.

Roz, I still need Harry flying on Buckbeak, Harry in the courtyard, and Lupin's office.  I currently have sort of acceptable cells in two cards, but not exactly what I want.  The cells in the Buckbeak card are of the Monster Book of Monsters and the cells in Lupin's office are of the boggart transforming into Snape/Neville's grandmother.

Woo hoo, one down, two to go!  I had a very good mail day today, and one of the cards I received was a Harry flying Buckbeak card with cells of Hermione and Ron after they held hands in the Care of Magical Creatures class.  True, the cells are not an exact match of the picture on the front, but they're from the same scene where Harry meets Buckbeak and goes flying.  It's close enough for me (although I wouldn't turn down cells that match exactly).

I dont think you'll ever see one of those because I dont remember seeing any Flying Buckbeak footage in the trailer Tongue

The scene was in the trailer. Smiley  There are stills from the theatrical trailer at Veritaserum and I've seen the cells in other POAU filmcards.  Now I just need to find the courtyard card and the Lupin's office card, and then I'll be done!

I need the courtyard and Lupin's office cards.  Courtyard cells will be difficult to find, since that scene had only a couple of seconds in the trailer. Undecided

I have some spares, too, because I like the cells even if they don't match the card.

I love that scene!  I had those cells in a different filmcard, but sold it.  I really regretted doing that, so I'm very happy to have the cells again, especially since they're in the correct card. Smiley
