Re: postcards/wands- I am finally getting organized and trying to sort out who I’m sending what. I’m going to be pm’ing the people who initially commented for a Harry Potter postcard/wand to ask for addresses, but if somehow I miss you, it’s because I’m blind or careless, not that I secretly hate you, so just remind me, okay? And of course, if ( Read more... )

Hee, it amuses me that a few people thought of Jane/Lisbon for #2! Because...yeah, FBI + psychic, true dat, but she's not really trying to capture him! Keep him in line, sure, but lolno, I'm referring to a movie in which the FBI agent is pursuing a psychic. ^_^ HMM, MYSTERIOUS ( ... )

Have you ever been into Minotaur in Melbourne CBD? Apparently they have cool stuff (I've yet to go!)

Oh, I exaggerated- I just mean they have the two aisles of Dexter crap, and then on the narrow end part, they have a couple pathetic figurine replicas that look nothing like the characters. *eyeroll* I just find it ridic that they have all these shelves of merch for ancient movies or for obscure shows, but hardly anything for one of the biggest franchises!

I've...heard of Minotaur, can't remember if I've been there. I think I might've, and was disappointed. Jacob promised me tons of HP stuff and there was like, a couple Hagrid figurines and that was it. They had stuff for other shows, like DW and Dexter, but yeah, not much for me.

Ah well, maybe Minotaur got more? Or its stuff that you don't consider good enough replicas? I know one of the friends of my friend bought a number of things and we were looking at them on the train home when we bumped into her. And some were a bit silly, but she had about 2-3 bobble heads figurines with wands (each of the trio), a key chain, a larger doll/figurine which was kind of awesome, and some other couple of things it took up three bags in their boxes and she said there was more stuff still that she didn't have the money to spend stuff on!! So I was impressed without even going. Maybe also, their stock comes and goes?

Yeah, could def be a stock issue. I prob wasn't there at the right time or something! (I know when they have conventions, they take a lot of their merch to to the cons because that's where the target audience is, so maybe I went in on one of those times)

If you see lots of cool stuff whenever you go, take lots of pictures! If that friend of a friend managed to get three bags full and wasn't even done yet, then whoa, there must be a lot of cool stuff! you should'a mugged her and run off with it all :P
