Luna Lovegood Funko SuperCute Plush (Product Review)

Luna Lovegood Funko SuperCute Plush (Product Review)

As a lot of Potterheads wait for the new releases of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts Funko Pops - the extremely popular line of figurines inspired by movies, video games, tv shows, and every fandom under the sun - one of my favorite collectibles is another type of Funko - the SuperCute Plush line. Considerably not as hype-worthy as the Pop or Mini-Figures or Five Star collections, their plushies are as cute as can be. Almost every single time I see them at the store, I have to get one.

Funko's SuperCute Luna Lovegood Plush is dressed almost identically to actress Evanna Lynch in the sixth film Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince - pink jacket, stars and galaxies skirt, blue tights, red shoes, and the Quibbler glasses. The only thing that is missing (and would've made the look even more complete) are her raddish earrings and the Quibbler magazine, but she is still adorable just as she is.

Like almost all of the Funko plushes, Luna is about 8 inches tall, which gives her a nice height - she's not too big or small. Her Quibbler glasses are made of a thick sturdy plastic and are not removable  unless you snap the attachment off. You can move her glasses to sit above her head, just like Luna does in the movie  - which is a nice addition instead of having the glasses just sit on her face.

Unlike some of the other stuffed toys from Funko's SuperCute Plush collection that are generally released everywhere like Amazon and Target, this Luna version is a Barnes and Noble exclusive. You can only find her at Barnes and Noble stores. If you're on the look-out for more Luna merchandise, or a toy that is safe for little kids, this plushie is a must-have.

UPDATED: Potter Pens Kickstarter Campaign

Would you like to own a slice of movie history? Orion Pens is running a kickstarter campaign to make a limited run of pens using wood acquired by Christ Church College in Oxford, England. The legendary location will ring a bell for Harry Potter fans: Christ Church College was used as a set for The Great Hall for the film franchise.

Orion Pens has transformed beautiful wood its acquired from the church into Harry Potter inspired handmade pens. Backers can choose between single barrel ballpoint pen with different plating options and a capped rollerball pen with a gun metal finish. To top it off, each pen will be accentuated with the backer's choice of a Hogwarts house - Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Slytherin, Hufflepuff.

Every pen is made by hand to build and assemble, and will come with their own Certificate of Authenticity. An optional add-on for a clear acrylic stand is also available for fans who want to display their pens with house pride.

If you're looking to own a piece of the set used from Harry Potter, there's only a limited supply of pens available and ends on August 22nd. Make sure you check out the kickstarter campaign!

UPDATE: This campaign was successfully funded before the deadline.

(The pens are in no way affiliated with J.K. Rowling, Warner Bros, Time Warner, and its associates.)

Get the Wizarding Look: Ravenclaw Tower Inspiration

Ravenclaw Tower Inspiration
In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, readers get a glimpse of the Ravenclaw Tower when Harry is summoned there as part of his journey in defeating Voldemort. Known as the Hogwarts house for wisdom and wit, students are renown for their eccentric outlooks of observing and studying the world. With its emblem of an eagle flying high on a blue and bronze crest, decorate your own home or study with inspiration from the Ravenclaw Tower.
