I recently got this mandrake prop. I love the spongy feel of it (http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k68/beanforsale/mand.jpg) : Re: My New CoS card : HPfamily January 17, 2007, 03:40:33 AM NICE cards Jo and ECL!!!
I still need a potions book prop.... ::) I just received these from Tom. Didn't get to choose, just told him that I wanted the case incentives and that I wanted the Hogwarts Letter to have something on it!! Here they be!! ;D Ci3 63/100 Ci4 15/64 Ci1 140/340 (http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b25/motocrossmom/caseincentivesCOS.jpg) I am happy with those...but I am ecstatic over Hermione's Cauldron!!! :o ;D 148/160 (http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b25/motocrossmom/cauldronCOS.jpg) : Re: My New CoS card : ECL January 17, 2007, 04:52:51 AM Wow! I agree, that hermione cauldron looks really beautiful!
: Re: My New CoS card : Roz January 17, 2007, 05:05:26 AM OOh I don't know - I think that Jackie ought to get into contact with Percy to check whether the bottom of that cauldron is thick enough... remember all we've heard about cheap imports? :rofl:

: Re: My New CoS card : Tower January 19, 2007, 05:33:50 AM I think, some of the props look much better in person than scanned. But i was able to make 2 pics with my camera which are very close to the original look. Better than scanned ...

: Re: My New CoS card : terryweasley January 19, 2007, 08:58:45 AM I agree. I really like Dumbledore's book. I think that's the best one I've seen. I wish I had your luck too.

Congrats. I admit defeat *winks*
: Re: My New CoS card : Galea January 23, 2007, 06:31:22 AM HOLY -- :o :o :o :o :o. I saw the one with the Ravenclaw and "Titilandus" and thought there should be one with the word Draco, that one's perfect, congrats Thomas!!

De Orc (http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/verkleidung/costumed-smiley-043.gif) : Re: My New CoS card : Tower January 23, 2007, 11:47:19 PM Thanks, i love my new card, but the one with the raven (and not only that one) is so amazing too, you can't say one is nicer and of course we shouldn't do something like that. Every variation is nice and we don't have a competition. :) We only should enjoy every card which has been and will be posted here. :)
: Re: My New CoS card : beatles99 January 24, 2007, 12:24:09 AM Competion ????? There will always be competion......or you wouldn't get variant cards at $300-$500
Or people using sniper programs when it's 4:00 a.m in the morning in their part of the world, if there was no competion.....it's not really this Forum where the competion lies.....showing the variants here ,I think is great and the best forum in the world bar none to see what sometimes a $10 to a $2000.00 looks like...there are allot of members in here , are about as close as they will ever be to seeing them, let alone owing one I agree there is no competion here...but for Potter cards outside of this forum???? God we are the competion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : Re: My New CoS card : Tower January 24, 2007, 01:03:04 AM Yes, of course, every single auction is a competition. And here is the fun part of collecting. :)
: Re: My New CoS card : HPfamily January 24, 2007, 01:24:42 AM Hmmmm? ??? Competition? ???
I'm into HP cards as a hobby....to have a collection!! Something I have never done before! ;D Not to compete!! :-\ I agree with Thomas...I'm here to share what I have grown to love!! ;D : Re: My New CoS card : Tower January 24, 2007, 01:36:44 AM I'm here to share what I have And to drool seeing what you all have. :D So the next card please ... 8) : Re: My New CoS card : HPfamily January 24, 2007, 01:52:53 AM So the next card please ... 8) OK!! ;D I haven't received it yet...but I just can't wait!!

: Re: My New CoS card : grecopa January 25, 2007, 05:42:18 AM Here's a question for all the howler owners: Does the text look printed, or hand written? I've been studying the prop that was posted and all the letters look so different from each other. Meaning- I can't find a bunch of letters that look like they match. All the "O"s look different, etc...
If it really is printed from a font, it must have about 8-10 duplicates of each letter! : Re: My New CoS card : 5594mike February 02, 2007, 03:27:16 AM Here's a question for all the howler owners: Does the text look printed, or hand written? me and sam will let you know what we think when we received sams ;D even though their not interesting varients these are sams new arrivles to her nearly completed COS set she only needs 3 wanted cards. soon... soon ;) ;) (http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n70/5594mike/P1ChamberofSecrets190-290.jpg) 190/290 (http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n70/5594mike/P7ChamberofSecrets130-280.jpg) 130/280 with creas 8) (http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n70/5594mike/C9Chamberofsecrets179-190.jpg) 179/190 = £13.00 :o (http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n70/5594mike/Ci1ChamberofSecrets029-340.jpg) 029/340 (http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n70/5594mike/C6ChamberofSecrets140-240.jpg) 140/240 = £17.00 cheep'ish ^-^ : Re: My New CoS card : pinksamstar February 02, 2007, 11:42:36 PM the riddle jumper is amazingness 8) 8) u rule :-*

: Re: My New CoS card : HPfamily February 03, 2007, 01:19:34 AM Thanks!!! It has lots of veins!! ;D
: Re: My New CoS card : 5594mike February 08, 2007, 02:26:19 AM wicked manddrake hp family, i dont know which variant of this card is the best :-\ the leaf or the root, your leaf prop scores one for the leaf's side with its wavey lines.
i couldnt believe my look with this card!!!!! the remains of the the dried up blood staines left on the tooth are mind blowing, but the best thing about is that the blood is from...........................HARRY POTTER :o :o when i realised i was well chuffed ;D (http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n70/5594mike/Ci3ChamberofSecrets017-100.jpg) 17/100 this new prop for sam is cool 8) its from the part of thehowler where molly speakes sofley to ginny congratulating her making gryffindor!!! so we got NG from MAKING and the RYFF from GRYFFINDOR and the tops of the letter of Farther it is sooooooooo good! 8) (http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n70/5594mike/P2ChamberofSecrets148-190.jpg) 148/190 : Re: My New CoS card : ECL February 08, 2007, 05:13:04 AM very nice!!
: Re: My New CoS card : Bitsy February 08, 2007, 06:52:56 AM Those are gorgeous cards! ;)
Ok, I think I posted this message in the wrong place originally, so I'm posting it here as well: To anyone who has gotten a Mandrake Plant (brown/body version): Does anyone have one with tiny hairs all over it? I just got it in the mail and the body of it has these little hairs sticking out of it. I thought they might be from something the seller was wearing or something, but they are actually stuck in there. Help--any thoughts? ??? I'll try and get a scan of it--my scanner is on the fritz. :P : Re: My New CoS card : terryweasley February 08, 2007, 10:48:04 AM I have a white patch on my Mandrake root that seems to want to stick on everything. I try and get a scan of it up as soon as possible.
: Re: My New CoS card : Sharon February 09, 2007, 02:42:54 AM Bitsy I only have the leaf Mandrake root but I am pretty sure the hairs on your one will be part of the prop. When you see them in the film they are 'fuzzy' and a bit stubbly. It looks like your one was just growing it's first beard ;D Congrats ;D

my scanners not too good, but you can see the tinge of the paper as well, it feels too smooth to be written on, its almost photo-like ??? hope that helps ;D ;D : Re: My New CoS card : grecopa February 11, 2007, 09:25:32 AM I'll stick it in photoshop and see what I can pull out of it. Thanks!
: Re: My New CoS card : Bitsy February 13, 2007, 07:20:16 AM Kelly, have you been able to determine whether it is print or hand written? I've been curious about this as well.
: Re: My New CoS card : grecopa February 13, 2007, 08:51:58 PM It definitely looks handwritten to me. I can see darker places in the N and at the tops of the Fs where the pen stopped or changed direction. It makes sense. Even if there were 20 copies of the letter, someone who does calligraphy for a living could whip those out in no time and have them look nearly identical. It would be a lot easier than making a font to print.
: Re: My New CoS card : pinksamstar February 14, 2007, 07:05:40 PM wow kelly! i am now convinced and even more proud of my howler card 8)
: Re: My New CoS card : Tower February 16, 2007, 03:10:45 AM I got my Howler card today. :D
I wonder if you can imagine how amazing it looks in person. Compare it with the picture of the whole Howler below. I'm almost sure, the tiny part of the letter is from the W of "Weasley". :) I have no idea what's the correct word for the "dark thing around the howler", but it's a nice fabric piece.

: Re: My New CoS card : bush360 February 16, 2007, 06:24:35 AM WOW what a nice card i agree it looks like the top of the W in Weasley. I am 4 boxes into a new case at the moment and have found 2 props so far one is a Floo powder and my mom pulled a Fawkes Feather which is really nice is has 2 feathers on it with a fluffy bit in the middle of the feathers, I will get scans up once i finish the case.

: Re: My New CoS card : kbmum February 28, 2007, 10:23:37 PM The book jacket Terry posted appears to be different than the one jfer21 posted. Terry's picture doesn't show any print on the spine area of the dust jacket.

: Re: My New CoS card : Bogleg March 05, 2007, 05:45:26 AM Maureen - I have just looked at your scans. I would be embarrassed to have some of your variant and rarer cards. Please PM me if you want to relieve youself of these blots on your collection :rofl:
Very nice indeed ;D : Re: My New CoS card : beatles99 March 05, 2007, 07:08:35 AM Your Right most of my variants are crap and not worthy to be in any serious Potter collection...Lord I've tried but have failed miserably at getting a half decent collection going.....sigh :o= :o= :o=
Just the other day acquired another Wizard Candy card and all I got was this crap...I just can't seem to find a 1/2 decent swatch anywhere ...........Can't anybody help ??? ??? ???.......I need to get better swatches !!!!!!!

: Re: My New CoS card : kbmum March 06, 2007, 06:33:06 PM I'm surprised it took so long for this variant to show up. We've seen quite a few Ginny sweaters with stripes, so maybe there are more Riddle variants in unopened boxes. :) Call or email your dealer today! ;)

Your card collecting skills amaze me.

And that Magical Me swatch is superb :) I saw a Ginny Variant at the show I went to this weekend, but I picked this one up for myself: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v502/rns91294/DSC01460.jpg) : Re: My New CoS card : Bitsy April 02, 2007, 05:46:12 AM That's a great swatch!!!!!!!!!! Love it! Congratulations...great buy! :)
: Re: My New CoS card : akimira April 02, 2007, 08:46:25 PM Hy.
I did find the Prop Card P6 which has a plain blue swatch. Now I'm wondering if there are any variants for this card. Does anybody knows? (Sorry, I can't show my newest cards since my scanner broke down.) : Re: My New CoS card : kbmum April 02, 2007, 09:01:26 PM There is reportedly a variant blue and yellow swatch somewhere, but it hasn't turned up yet (or the owner has kept it quiet).
: Re: My New CoS card : akimira April 02, 2007, 09:06:22 PM Wow, I would really love to see this variant...
Thanks for the fast answer. : Re: My New CoS card : terryweasley April 18, 2007, 02:55:04 AM (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/tspil/Harry%20Potter%20Cards/MagicalMeBookCardTwo.jpg) I just bought this card. Couldn't resist it. The dealer had it at a 10% discount. It's also the first card I've seen with the notes from the back of the book. I'll post a scan of it with my other P7 Magical Me cards when it comes. : Re: My New CoS card : Bitsy April 18, 2007, 04:59:01 AM Wow, that's a nice swatch!!!!!!! Congratulations! ;D

: Re: My New CoS card : terryweasley April 18, 2007, 11:55:16 PM Wow, that's a nice swatch!!!!!!! Congratulations! ;D Do you know what is says? I can't quite tell on the computer. I don't have the actually card at the moment. When I comes, I posted it online and let you know what it says. I hope to have a better scan than the dealer did. : Re: My New CoS card : Bitsy April 22, 2007, 06:16:05 AM Wow, that's a nice swatch!!!!!!! Congratulations! ;D Do you know what is says?

: Re: My New CoS card : Roz April 25, 2007, 02:55:43 PM Wonderful, wonderful and so unlike anything else we've seen :D
: Re: My New CoS card : ferdinand_the_yak April 25, 2007, 03:08:55 PM In my opinion, along with the Lockhard head shot, that's is one of the best swatches I have ever seen! Congrats Terry! :D
: Re: My New CoS card : terryweasley April 30, 2007, 12:24:31 AM I love your Ci4! Hope to get my new Ci4 soon and safely! Should happen the next days, wish me luck that all works fine. Thanks for the feedback to my book, i'm so happy with it. The new one here is awesome too, but yes, that one was expensive ... ::) Here's my Magical Me Prop: (http://www.towersweb.de/Cards/Chamber/Props/P7Magical.jpg) I remember when I first saw this card; I wondered where it had come from. It didn't look like it belonged on the front of the book. It wasn't until I got my latest Magical Me card and realized they were using the back of the book as well that I found out what that emblem is. Actually I was trying to find out what the wording on my card was. I decided to check out the back of the Gilderoy Lockhart prop book I own. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/tspil/A-Year-with-the-Yeti-Back.jpg) If you look at the bottom left, you will see the publisher's mark. The publisher is Rumihart Books. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/tspil/AYearoftheYetiBackPublishersMark.gif) Tower's card has part of the publisher's emblem from the back of the book. It amazes me how much detail they put into the props. That part of the book only showed up on the screen for a few minutes, and Harry was using the book to swat at Cornish Pixies at the time. The black smuge marks on the book are where Harry hit the pixies. : Re: My New CoS card : Bitsy April 30, 2007, 02:43:57 AM My latest P7 Magical Me card came today. It's 185/280.

Congratulations--it is absolutely incredible! LOVE the writing and what it says is so cool! :o : Re: My New CoS card : Tower April 30, 2007, 04:02:42 AM Tower's card has part of the publisher's emblem from the back of the book.

Now i like the card better than before. :D But yours is not less amazing of course. 8) : Re: My New CoS card : LikORish-Spider May 03, 2007, 08:23:48 AM Hi Tower, what is the number of your C4 card with the emblem?

: Re: My New CoS card : akimira May 10, 2007, 08:54:28 PM Hallo.
Finally, my scanner is working again.

: Re: My New CoS card : beckham1 August 22, 2007, 08:50:16 AM Picked up this Mandrake prop card. Since I wasn't around when COS came out I don't know if this is a more common swatch or more rare???? Either way I think it is a cool prop.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/dlecours1313/scan0056.jpg) : Re: My New CoS card : terryweasley August 22, 2007, 10:20:20 AM That is a nice Hermione's sweater. They are hard to find. I don't think there is a standard one when it comes to the Mandrake cards. Each of the leaf and root cards are a little different. It's a nice one though. Here's my latest COS card. I finally found a Slytherin Christmas Cracker Card. It makes a nice addition to my Gryffindor Christmas Cracker Card. Two down two more to go. I still need a Ravenclaw and a Hufflepuff to finish off the set.

because I've become somewhat of a tight wad!!! :rofl: Let's just say it was in the price range of $0-$100! ;) : Re: My New CoS card : kbmum October 09, 2007, 03:07:42 AM You got that for a song! :D
