Hi All,

We have added a new section to our shop called Plush Toys. Here you can find your favorite characters in fun Plush Toys.
http://harrypotter.wbshop.com/cat/Harry-Potter/Toys--Games/Plush-Toys/?ppp=1000000;default_ppp=9;sort=;breadcrumb=

We have also added some new 3-D puzzles to the games and puzzles area.

I know you are all very anxious for the Dumbledore's Army shirts to come out, and we are as well. We are working very hard on getting them up on the site and available for sale. I can tell you that we intend to have them ready in plenty of time for the movie release.

Please keep checking back as we are adding new stuff on a regular basis, and make sure you are signed up to receive our updates.

Thanks everyone,
Rachel @ WB

I'm sorry to say that but the plushie Buckbeak looks a bit like a dead pidgeon to me...

Crookshanks and Hedwig are very cute, though.

Aaaah, Crookshanks is really cute. And I really like the Monster's Book of Monsters.

But I have to agree with dagamma, Buckbeak looks a bit... off. Maybe because he's so much smaller than he would be in the films?

I agree Buckbeak looks odd!
I want a snitch! and a crookshanks!

LOL that Buckbeack looks hilarious

Crookshanks looks well cute though, I want one ^_^

Those plush toys look fab, particularly the Crookshanks and Hedwig ones. Though Fawkes needs a bit more colour in him.

I love the monster book of monsters...

I want one!!

Buckbeak does look a little different... but I think that I'll take one of each of these little guys... I need to stop looking at this site! haha

Is there a forum or place where we can rate or review Harry Potter related Online Stores? This seems to be the closest thing I could find so far and since I can't create a seperate thread.

Just wanted to give a warning to all Potter fans to avoid WhimsicAlley.com...not only did they botch up my order...but they refused to respond to all my emails to rectify the problem. When I did a search for the company on BBB (the Better Business Bureau)...they had 10 outstanding customer complaints that have yet to be answered and a standing grade of F by the BBB.

And if you happen to be one of the lucky few that managed to get what you wanted from that store...good for you...but if you're unlucky like me...don't expect any response from their customer service (which have yet to answer any of my numerous emails from nearly a month ago).

AVOID WHIMSICALLEY.COM!

I looked at this and thought it was these little kid looking harry, ron, and hermione toys and it scared me. The sorting hat's a tad creepy, but Hedwig is so awesome

Buckbeack looks off, and Fawkes isn't as brightly colored or streamlined as I expected. I do like the monster book, which a friend actually bought for me recently. Its tongue vibrates. Unfortunately, I was kind of hoping that it would gently bite, but it doesn't do that. Oh well. It's still a fun, unique HP collectible to own.

These plush are just terrible. I saw most of them in person, and my god...I'm sorry, but they're just awful. Crookshanks looked like he was...er...stoned, actually. The dragons actually made me giggle, especially that Swedish Short Snout one, and Buckbeak literally didn't look like ANYTHING. I don't know what happened to him...

You want to see quality Harry Potter plush toys? Look at these guys: http://www.fao.com/catalog/ensemble.jsp?ensembleId=85

Sadly, they're all about $600.

Omg. I love the fao shwartz plush animals! Those are so awesome. Especially Aragog and Buckbeak! Could you imagine lying on top of Aragog and reading CoS? It's sooo sweet! To bad their like $600. Oh well. To Bill Gate's bank account I go...

When you're talking to bill ask him to spot me $600 so i can buy fluffy from fao schwarz will you?

I think the WB plush look really well, very good quality, definitely look as good as the fao schwarz and at a fraction of the cost I love the monster book and scabbers is really cute(I wouldn't want him in my room though I mean it is supposed to be Peter Pettigrew...) I just wish they'd make another fluffy, a proper big-ish one, like the size of fawkes.

I went to FAO Schwartz last year and the giant plushies were AMAZING!!! But the cost alot of money. The dragons were like 8 ft tall but Hedwig was my favorite. She was like 4 ft tall. I wanted one sooooooo bad!
