It really Surprized me that I couldn't find any review on the
NOBLE COLLECTION - Harry Potter - Vertebrae Candleholder.

So I decided to open one of the Candleholder boxes to make a special review for THERPF.

So lets begin with the outside of the box:

Just a normale white box, with on the outside the site of the Noble Collection.
Other then that nothing special. I was really expecting something special about the box, with more pictures and prehaps a little side story.

Then we go to the inside of the box:

Very nice and saved protected. with paper wrapping, and even for the candle a little faom to hold in nicely in place. The small Tea candle is savely protected by tape so it couldn't fall out. and so is the little oil tube.

Here is a picture without the wrapping:

Moving on.
The tea candle

To be honest I was expecting a regular tea candle. but this really is a tiny tea candle. it mesures a small 1.5 cm. Dont know how it burns, and sorry I will not be trying that out :p

The oil tube.

also very small, else it wouldn't fit in the candle hole.
also about 1.5 cm big and 7.5 cm tall. the top comes off so you can always replace the candle thread after it is burned up.

The back

On the back is showing the Harry Potter tm logo with the copyright sign on Warner Bros. To be honest I have no Idea what the (s07) is. And hoping that it might be the pieces number, but again I am not sure. hoping to get reply from another member who has an open Candle Holder. And as final it has the tag op Crafted in China. Don't mind the white stop on the label tag, it was a piece of foam from the boxing.

And the Final Picture of the Vertebrae Candle Holder.

To conculde my review of the Noble Collection Vertebrae Candle Holder. This is great Replica. my rating is a 9 of the 10. As I said before the only thing I was expecting was the candle to be a little bit bigger. eventhough this is a tall candle of 40.5 cm! Beside that and the fact that its missing the roman numbers on the spine itself. It's an incredible piece of art! A true and great prop.


I hope you enjoyed reading my review, feel free to ask any questions or comments, and I am very sorry if I have a few spelling mistakes. English is not my first language so my apologies.
 
Dammit, I didn't know Nobel had new stuff. My bank account is going to hate me. Thanks for the brilliant review!


eta: ah, it's an older prop. Still looks wicked.

Haha, correct this isn't an new prop but I see you found that out already :p This is Noble Collection Discontinued Prop, Some say there were only about 100 pieces sold. (luckely I own 4 of them). But I can tell you this, if you are ever buying one. Indeed your bank account wouldn't like it xD. haha
 
Thanks Ecl, But I've owned this for for quite some time, I decided to open one, because I couldn't find a review any where on the internet about this item. So by posting this I am hoping to help out the members who ever where thinking of buying one, so they know what to expect.
 
Nice review. I've heard the less than 100 number before, I wonder how true it is. If it is true then at least 10-15% of them are owned by RPF members. Which is kinda cool.
 
I think the "s07" is refferening to the copyright year- it is on a lot copyrights on harry potter stuff, and the number varies, and year is what it seems to corospond to- have a look at other HP stuff you have. so the vertabrae candle was made in 2007, if I'm right?
 
Yep.. The s07 is the release year.. That I am aware of, they weren't even numbered.. I've seen a few over the years on eBay and none of them were ever numbered.. My one doesn't have the actual box, but has the foam box and everything else, and can't find any other number except for the year date..

Research and questioning Noble, I have worked out there to be about 15, give or take, that were not recovered.. They sent out 20 odd and did the recall and had some returned.. So there could be only about 15 of these.. Now, if the 1st Edition book sells for $20 000 at times, and there were 500 of those release, how much are these worth if only about 15 of the 100 that was going to be released survived??

I decided to 3d print mine, there are a few on Thingiverse.com to choose from. I am in the process of painting, I'm also going to add a flickering LED light to it.
