If you’ve been faithfully collecting every Harry Potter Funko Pop! figure so far, you might have to work a little harder this year. The latest batch of Potter Pops! will be a limited-edition SDCC exclusive set of three brand-new figures. It includes two variations on characters from the original series and a super-sized 6″ creature from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
We’ve seen other iterations of Harry before. This time, though, he doesn’t look like your average Pop! figure. Instead, he’s sitting astride his Firebolt, sporting his Quidditch robes with a Golden Snitch on hand. The curved stand makes it an ideal figure for display and prevents tipping, a problem older toys in the Pop! line are prone to. (Newer models sometimes come with stands as well, though never quite so stylized as this one.)
This isn’t the first Luna Lovegood we’ve seen, either. However, this is the first alternate outfit, and it’s a good one: Luna’s ensemble from the Hogwarts Express scene in Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, complete with Spectrespecs. She even has an issue of The Quibbler under her arm.
The Occamy, the sort of bird/serpent hybrid that radically shifted size throughout Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, rounds out the group. Given the frequency with which its size shifted to humongous, it makes sense that this is a double-size Pop! measuring 6″ high. It also makes sense that Funko is churning out more Fantastic Beasts figures, given the impending sequels. The Occamy figure joins the likenesses of the Niffler, the Demiguise, and many of the movie’s human characters.
