George Weasley: " Harry, you help yourself to anything you want, all right? No charge." Harry Potter: " I can't do that!" Fred Weasley: " You don't pay here... you gave us our start-up loan, we haven't forgotten. Take whatever you like, and just remember to tell people where you got it, if they ask." — Fred and George, with Harry in 1996 [src] The film studio in Leavesden where Harry Potter film series were filmed was originally and old aircraft factory. The Studio Tour’s nearest railway station is Watford Junction and direct services arrive there from both London Euston (20-minute journey) and Birmingham New Street (1-hour journey). Despite the rebellious nature of some of these products, the twins were nevertheless subject to certain Ministry regulations.
We’re not saying Polyjuice Potion isn’t useful – it helped Harry, Ron and Hermione on their way to solving many a mystery. But despite its ability to change you into someone else for a while, drinking the potion itself sounds less tempting than swigging Skele-Gro. The basic ingredients alone make us want to retch: Lacewing flies, leeches, Boomslang skin, powdered horn of a Bicorn just to name a few. Who’d want to swallow any of those ingredients on their own? Let alone after they’ve all been mixed together in a cauldron and left to stew for a month. But that isn’t the worst part of Polyjuice Potion – it also requires a bit of whoever you want to change into. Hermione settles on hair rather than toenails but still... pretty disgusting all round. Creepy and revolting, just the sight of the green tank displaying lazily drifting brains has to be very high up on our Scourgify scale. Add to this the fact the brains have tentacles (giant squid – you’ve got competition), and when Ron summons one it tries to suffocate him... we think the brains are a nasty Hallowe’en surprise we could definitely live without. A toy for playing Hangman – not on paper, but with a tiny wooden man and a real set of gallows to scale, where apparently the little man will march up the gallows steps as the game progresses. To raise money for their shop they bet their life's savings with Ludo Bagman, on the outcome of the Quidditch World Cup. They won, but Bagman paid them off with Leprechaun gold, which vanished after a few hours, wiping out their savings and putting their dream in peril. [3] In the PS2/Xbox/Gamecube versions, there is also a chest that Harry can pay beans to for a random item, good or bad.Concept artists designed 8-10 hero props (hero being the term for the main props the actors use), such as the Puking Pastilles sculpture and the WWW sculpture, and graphics did more of the paper/signage/fireworks. The team behind Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter wanted to preserve and showcase the treasure trove of iconic props, costumes and sets so that Harry Potter fans could experience the magic of filmmaking first-hand.
There were reusable hangmen located at the counter. Patented Daydream Charms were a large display near the counter. The WonderWitch products were near the daydream charms next to the window. [1] The WonderWitch products were a array of violently pink products that attracted the attention of girls. A cage of Pygmy Puffs was located there as well. [1] The shop was designed into three sections – Fireworks and Explosives; Muggle Magic and Consumer Products – which included the Love Potion and Floo powder. In the book there were three or four products mentioned – the other 110 products had to be created by the staff. Causes jinxes to bounce off the wearer. The Ministry bought five hundred for all their support staff. Also Shield Cloaks and Shield Gloves. Not effective against Unforgivables. One such treat that always piqued my interest – regardless of how gross it sounded – was a puking pastille. Created by Fred and George Weasley as a prank treat that could get you out of class, puking pastilles were later sold as a treat at their Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes location in Diagon Alley.
While the triangle candies from Universal are certainly mass produced and likely use something like an injection mold to create the shape and dual color tones, I wanted to make that my candies could in fact be recreated at home by Muggles.
A range of sweets to make the eater ill; each different category looks like a different type of sweet and causes a different kind of illness. Each sweet is colour-coded so that one end causes the illness and the other makes the effect lift.The walls of Hogwarts were lined with nearly 350 charming portraits of centuries-old wizard and witches. But in fact, the portraits were actually hand paintings of the film crews immortalised on canvas. A Range of Fireworks. This group of fireworks included the original Weasleys' Wildfire Whiz-Bangs, as well as a variety of new and creative pyrotechnic products. Potions Classroom –Marvel at the vast array of over 950 potion jars that line the walls of the classroom, each with unique props kept inside them including baked animal bones from a local butcher shop, dried leaves, herbs and shrunken heads made by the props department. If you have never played with isomalt before, this recipe will give you a chance to test out a new ingredient in a a magical way!
Weasley's Wizard Wheezes sells a lot of other merchandise, including shirts, toys, games, and joke items. Some of these items, such as Extendable Ears,Sneakoscopes, and Decoy Detonators, were mentioned in the books. Other items were invented specifically for the movies and ended up making their way into the theme park version of the shop. (The graphics team created more than 100 Weasley's Wizard Wheezes products for the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie.) Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes sold a large variety of magical products. These included simple things, objects with advanced magical abilities, and Pygmy Puffs. In the immediate aftermath of the battle Weasley, whose famous ginger hair appears to be thinning slightly, entered into employment with the Ministry of Magic alongside Potter, but left only two years later to co-manage the highly successful wizarding joke emporium Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. Was he, as he stated at the time, 'delighted to assist my brother George with a business I've always loved '?" — DUMBLEDORE'S ARMY REUNITES AT QUIDDITCH WORLD CUP FINAL [src]The iconic set for Dumbledore’s office is surrounded by a large library of books which are, in fact, mostly telephone directories bound in leather. Shoppers can only access the first floor, but if you look up at the second and third floors, you'll see many of the props that appeared in the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie. Goblin Heads - Goblins in the Harry Potter film series act as bank officials and tellers at Gringotts bank in Diagon Alley. Each goblin was given a particular personality perceptible in their distinctive ears, chins and noses to ensure they all looked different. To create the scene inside Gringotts Bank in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, 140 make-up artists from all over Europe were needed to turn 60 actors into goblins in just four hours. Goblin prosthetics could also not be reused after they were removed at the end of the day’s filming and so multiples of every goblin head were created for each day of the shooting schedule.
