I can't say if there will be anything in regards to Harry's First Task Robes. They could have the costume on diplay, but it's really hard to tell. The event will be at ten Isetan Department Stores in Japan (perhaps some Takashimaya's and Queen's Square Yokohama). They each had little differences in what Props/Costumes were on diplays so who knows Huh By the way, the WB Japan Store has Victor's Shirt (and tank) from the Third Task, and Fleur's Suit from the Third Task, though Undecided

As for the wands, I think you'll be able to get them in due course. The Harry, Hermione, and Ron wands were, first, obtainable through the PoA Events or The WB Japan Store. It wasn't long before the Noble Collection started to produce the same exact type of wands with different boxes. Also, the Isetan Exclusive Dumbledore wand was only available at the PoA Events in 2004. That wand will be available from the Noble Collection next month, I believe. It's only a matter of time before they have Cedric's, Victor's, and Fleur's wands. The WB Japan hasn't produced Snape's, Draco's, or Voldemort's wand, yet. Also, I'm pretty sure Lucius's Limited Edition PoA Event Cane did not have the wand like Noble Collections. In any regard, I'm sure they'll be available in America one of these days.

Something else worth mentioning, the WB Japan Store has preorders for Artbox's Goblet of Fire boxes, packs, tins, and binder. The boxes will be Hobby versions (unlike the retail PoA boxes at the PoA Events .. I haven't heard anything about hobby or retail for PoAU). Most of the Artbox stuff seems overpriced compared to the going prices in America, but I'm sure there's import taxes, cost of living, etc to take into account.

Everyday, I look at the Isetan link in the previous post hoping for something new, but I'm fairly content with what Mike posted previously Wink By the way, how did you find it? You're right on top of things Cool

I had a feeling Noble "toke" the idea from Japan since the wands look identical (all but Rons). Noble has a GOF statue, so does the Japanese, but they had it first.

I just checked the WB Japan Store and noticed that some new products were added to the Preorder Inventory ... including some Golden Egg's with small towels inside, Dark Mark temporary tatoos, hankerchiefs, hand watches, leather Hogwarts notebooks, a better quality (and more expensive) Quidditch World Cup Bag, some small bags, and probably even more (I don't know if I got everything Wink).

It's never too late to plan a trip Wink The GoF Isetan Event will in many Prefectures (with Tokyo being the only one to have it twice) from November 23, 2005 until February 6, 2006.

After doing some research, I still can't figure out if any other events will be at any Takashimaya's or if there will be a temporary shop at Queen's Square Yokohama Undecided

I haven't seen them either. The only thing I've seen in stores for GoF is the Quill and Pen pictures above, a pack of (regular pens, mechanical pencil, and regular pencils), and the stuff at Hot Topic (T-shirts and Postcards) Wink

All I have seen is the Hot Topic stuff as well, which I am not all that excited about.  I thought the stuff they had for PoA was much better, like the Muggle t-shirt and stuff. 

I also want the Lego sets (I hope they make more, as there are only 4 or 5 right now, and there were loads more before, i think).  I have been looking for them, and everyone seems to have them online only right now.

But I really want a pet beast.  If someone sees them, please PM me so I know where to find them.  Thanks!

I'll do some research for you in regards to shipping to the US. As of now, the only place that I know selling it is Isetan. Sadly, the clothes they have are a bit costly. The First Task Robe is 9,800 Yen ($85.05). The other Shirt is a bit cheaper. It's 3,200 Yen ($27.77).

If I got the Quidditch Towel or the Yule Ball towel, it would be very tough to use them. I would have to give it some thought on what I would do with them. Right now, I can't be sure if it's 200 for each Isetan Event (making the total number of towels 2000 because the event will go to ten locations), or 200 towels period (making each location have only twenty towels for sale) Undecided

Are you talking about the Quill and Notebook set? We had a bunch of them here. The last I saw them, they were reduced to $2.00. Our Wal-mart didn't do a good job with trying to sell them. They put them in a very weird spot in the "Back to School" Aisle. I, first, found them completely by accident Tongue

I could buy this one instead of the Hufflepuff one I was going to get (cotten blend, 120 for lining, patch, and exact measurements) and just get this one. Ether way, its still going to be a Christmas present Grin The shirt I might be able to get my mom to get if I do my school work and clean up Cheesy

Well, the Wal-mart here in my town must not be up to par because I check the lego section every time I'm there (which is quite often  Roll Eyes ) and still no HP lego sets!!!  Hopping Mad

I hope they make more also!!!  Usually there is a set that is quite large, aprox $100.  These seem to be smaller sets!! My 9 year old will have these finished in a flash!!! Huh

I agree.  The Hogwarts Castle was a huge set. I got it on sale for $60 at Wal-Mart!!!  It still goes for $100 everywhere else.  And this was the only set that took mye about 5 hours to build.  All others where very simple....

They could make a nice large set of the maze....they had a nice large Chamber of Secrets one with the Basilisk.
