hmmm, now that we finally have the update set released, do you think artbox will go and do philosophers stone and Chamber of secrets separately or as a combined set if they were to do so? because i mean, like we've got a year until the next movie, and if spaced out properly, they could make quite alot from doing the first two movies, even though they are just a slight bit "out of date" than prisoner of azkaban, maybe they could do "update sets" for the first two movies or something like that and include like "every flavour bean" boxes and "Hogwarts Invitation letter/envelope" "tom riddles' diary" for prop cards and for costumes maybe they could finally get like hagrid, snape, quirrell, mcgonagall, original dumbledore, the dursleys, mrs weasley etc. it'd be a very interesting and no doubt impressive set if they were to make it, and have a like case incentive of like "Hogwarts Express upholstery" or "harry's (physical) invisibility cloak"

LOL that would be cool - I suggested a bunch of ideas for the Philosopher's Stone set once,

PROPS

1) The actual invitation letter inviting Harry to Hogwarts

2) A Gringotts coin

3) Olivanders Wand Box

4) Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans Box

5) Daily Prophet- Gringotts break in report (rather like the prophet card from the Azkaban set - almost to match).

6) Slytherin Flag from the great hall decoration when the house cup is about to be announced

7) Gryffindor Flag from the great hall decoration once the house cup has been announced

CLOTHING CARDS

1) The hat worn by Dumbledore when he drops Harry off as a baby on the Dursley's doorstep - it's very rich in colour - but actually he has some really great hats in this movie so any would do!

2) Quirrel's Turban

3) Chudley Cannons Robe (shown in the window of a Diagon Alley Shop)

4) Voldermort's cloak in the flashback scene when Hagrid tells Harry the story of his parents (just before entering Diagon Alley)

5) A tie set - this could be 2 dual clothing cards or 4 cards with a swatch of the 4 ties worn by students in each house - eg. Gryffindor is red and gold and Slytherin is silver and green.

It is great to do this for the early sets because it looks like Harry et al are going to be wearing school uniform less in these movies from now on.

6) McGonagal's Green cloak

7) A swatch of the solid invisibility cloak

8 ) Neville's teddy pajamas from the scene where he tries to stop our heroic trio from leaving the common room at night! When Hermione casts petrificus totalis on him - this would be more of a comedy card but would be quite funny and it is a turning point and a sign of what is to come from Neville - he has plenty of heroism in him yet!

9) Harry's red jumper/sweater - worn in the confrontation with Quirrel/Voldemort by the mirror of Erised

10) (and this could go in any set) Quidditch robes from all 4 houses

AUTOGRAPHS

1) Harry Potter

2) Oliver Wood (after this film Wood doesn't have much screen time sadly - Azkaban was his finest hour in the books

3) Professor Flitwick

4) Firenze (probably just a voice actor - maybe it would be better to wait until the Order of the Phoenix where he does have a bigger part)

5) Professor McGonagal

We could probably take Harry Potter and Flitwick off that list now :P

Sadly Elle it won't be possible to have the Original Dumbledore's autograph. I am afraid he's no longer with us.

Chamber of Secrets please with an Emerald Green Desgin  ;D

Are they definitely doing an older set?  When do they plan to come out with that, and when would the GoF be out?

They certainly were planning to, we'll have to see what they think when the dust settles after this one!

GOF is tentatively scheduled for release November 2005, so most likely the card set would be released about the same time.

Next year could be a very busy year for HP cards if Artbox decides to release PS, COS, and GOF all by November!  Better start saving up...

By the way, I would love to have a card with Harry's baby blanket from the first movie.

what some of us would do just to get 5 minutes in the planning meeting of the next sets :P....

I would imagine (without much effort) that most of the props from the first two movies are not available for use in a set of cards. The choice may be very limited and hence disappointing to us the collector's. Even more so than the card distribution in this POA Upadte set. ???  ??? ???

I would be very grateful for a couple of high quailty sets for the first two films. Sets that weren't reliant on so many inserts.

Maybe a good base set, foil set and 6 high end inserts.

It just would be nice to have a set or two for the previous films
