Which Harry Potter Wands??

[Beechy McFly]

Aloha all.. Just wondering, which wands do people think are the best to get?? I'd love to get wooden versions of course, but the wooden wands I've seen aren't accurate enough..

I was looking at the Noble versions but also want to get the proper Ollivander Boxes.. So what are peoples opinions on the best ones?? Thanx..

Any suggestions guys, before I plunge into Noble Collection??

There are some nice wood versions out there, but I'm personally happy with the Noble ones, especially for their sale prices. So, if you go with the Noble versions, I highly suggest waiting until they have one of their 30% off weekends... They usually have them with every "character" birthday. I was surprised that they didn't have a bigger sale with the release of the movie.

Ya know, I think Pastorjedi makes wands every now and again.

Are the Noble wands the ones they sell at Universal Studios?

We were there a couple weeks ago and they have 30 wands available to buy. I think they were about $30 each.

Just saw the 7th and final movie, what a great franchise!

The NC versions have the accuracy advantage at least in looks of being cast directly off of the original props.

How are you getting them here Beechy? My wife wanted a set for her birthday. She picked Harry's with the box, and 10 others in the display stand. It took her ages to decide which 10 she wanted, then when we went to checkout there was no international delivery option anyway!

Yeah, I tried registering but said it was only US and Canada, but when emailed them they said they do ship Down Under..

I was going to do the 10 set one, but found out they don't even send them in their boxes.. So far I have added to the Shopping Cart 65 items which is at $2,108.50.. :lol Tax is coming in so thought I'd spend up on Harry Potter and boost that Collection.. Spewing no one here does all the Noble items..

I too am still deciding which wands to get, just going through Youtube reviews until I am certain of which wands are good. The thing which is disappointing about the recent wand releases is that many of them have a flat tip. Did anyone also notice that the wands for Seamus Finnigan and Lavender Brown look like Ron's wand design from the first 2 films.

Mate, 65 items? that's got to be nearly the whole Harry Potter collection, it may be easier to tick things you don't want :lol. The missus had a lot of trouble choosing just 10 wands as well, she actually ended up deciding to grab 2 of those display sets and choosing 20.

We went for just Harry's wand in the box as it worked out a lot cheaper, would have been easier to display just one with a box (limited space), plus it's the only one you see purchased in a box..don't quote me on that though, I'm not a huge Harry Potter fan. But as I said, we never checked with Noble on international shipping and didn't go ahead with it. Which was a shame because she is not usually very interested in props.

Sometimes I think someone could make a killing in the USA sending on the items we can't get here. I know you can set up mail forwarding addresses but I wouldn't use one enough to justify it.

I am looking forward to seeing your display when it comes in. Sounds like it will be awesome.

:lol True.. I've got all the wands in the shopping cart, plus Staff and a few other replicas.. Waiting to hear back from them about how much shipping will be..

Think I need another case for setting up a Harry Potter Collection..
