A selection of portraits

Some of these are crew members, directors, execs, etc.

The door to the Chamber of Secrets

None of that snakes-moving-to-unlock-the-door stuff was CG -- they made it work on this door. So cool....

The Burrows

They had some interactive pieces, where you could move a "wand" fixed to a stand, and the iron would press the clothes, the needles would knit, or the knife would cut the carrot.

Ron's Howler

Some of Harry's letter

Bill Weasley's M.O.M. record

You know, they could have gone with "Lorem ipsum..." stuff. But they didn't. Except the fine print.

Marauder's Map

a little bit of 3D -- who knew?

Various potion bottles

Umbridge's outfits

These make me shudder.

Umbridge's office

Various books, and some of Weasley's Wizarding Whe

Butterbeer!

Yes, indeed, it was tasty. Kinda like butterscotch-flavored cream soda

The Knight Bus

The flying Ford Anglia

Wizard's chess pieces

Aiden and the rook

Fawkes

Luna Lovegood's lion headdress

The Book of Monsters

Voldemort's final physical vessel
