As the Harry Potter movie franchise comes to a close, there’s still time to sell merchandise to the fans. The good news is the audience has aged along with the films, which means toys are not the only thing Potter fans might be interested in. Enter the Harry Potter Chess Collection.
Mimoco, the makers of those funky USB drives, is at it again, this time showing off its San Diego Comic Con Exclusive Harley Quinn drive inspired by the Batman: Arkham City video game.
Harley Quinn encompasses the fan-favorite Batman character as re-imagined in Arkham City styling with red and black leather bustier, rainbow-highlighted pigtails, shock of blonde hair and the menacing white face of a sociopath worthy of The Joker’s love.
If you happen to be at the convention, stop buy Mimoco’s booth (#4938) and see if you can snag one of these. But you better get in line early, the company says only 800 will be made available at the show.
If you’ve ever had a dream of rampaging down the hallway of your school pretending to be Bowser, this backpack from Perpetual Kid should get you half way there.

Well I don’t know about punk, but a backpack like this will guarantee no one will get too close to you in line. The Reptilian Mad Pax Backpack retails for $59.99.
Egon, Peter, Ray, and Winston may be the best Ghostbusters out there, but I’m not sure I want the visage of Bill Murray sitting on my shelf staring at me all day. Kotobukiya has come to our rescue with this sexy little Ghostbusters statue in their Movie x Bishoujo line.
threeAToys has announced it is releasing figures based on the ABC Warriors from 2000 AD. Mongrol is first in the line of 1/6th sized figures.

The figure goes on sale on Monday, February 28, 2011 with a suggested price of $250.

MIMOBOT has a new line of Batman flash drives it is offering up for sale, and if you still use the USB drives to move and share information, these would be perfect gifts.
The designer character-based flash drive collection leads off with a vintage 1939-era Batman now available in a limited edition run of 5,000 units, and later joined by a full Batman wave of flash drive designs in February including Robin, Catwoman and The Joker. More MIMOBOT series based on additional DC Comics’ characters, including Green Lantern, Superman and The Flash, will follow in the near future.

As the holiday season continues to approach with every increasing speed, finding just the right gift for your loved one is going to be a big deal. Shop smart, shop S-mart with this really nice Army of Darkness inspired T-Shirt that looks like something Bruce Campbell wore at the end of the move. The design is a print only, this shirt doesn’t really button down, and the blood most certainly isn’t real. For $30.00 it’s a tad on the expensive side, but money really shouldn’t be an issue if you truly love that special AoD fan in your life, right?
I honestly thought these would have appeared sooner in the movie franchise history than right now, but as Harry Potter film series draws to a close, now is the perfect time to remind H.P. fans that while the books are gone and the movies soon will be, but you still love them.
These voice activated wands light up when you say the magic word, and though they won’t dismiss dementors, it should help you find your way to the door when the lights go out.
Harry Potter Voice-Activated Wand Flashlight
At $15.99, this is sure to be a hot item for the holiday season, or at least a hot item on eBay, when Think Geek sells out.
