Knight Models Release Special Harry Potter Miniatures For Black Friday
November 22, 2018 by brennon
A number of Harry Potter Miniatures Adventure Game characters are going to be available from Knight Models only throughout this Black Friday weekend.
Over on their webstore HERE you will be able to get your hands on Sirius Black, Luna Lovegood, Dobbie, Kreacher only throughout this weekend before they vanish back into the 'special event' box only to come out on different occasions.
Despite how good/bad the game might be (for the record, I haven't played it) I think the miniatures Knight Models have been working on for the world are stunning. Luna Lovegood is one of my favourite characters from the books/films with her quirky look on life and it's great to see her in miniature form.
As well as that I picked out Ollivander from the recent bundle of releases as ever since Lance's pal wrote that article on playing Harry Potter as a role-playing game I've been thinking about the kind of character I'd love to play.
Whilst I can't really play Ollivander himself I think that his character is one that I'd love to copy in some ways. A wizard who is obsessed with the crafting and art of making wands, going out and searching for the most interesting designs and materials in order to draw the power from them and aid young wizards and witches.
I like the idea that maybe he could even be a squib perhaps but knows the very nature of magic and where to draw it from.

What happened Olivander’s neck? He looks like he’s doing some shady deal round the back of the alley. :/
Luna looks great, bar the pose. Still unimpressed with the posing.
Lion Hat Luna is an improvement on the normal model’s pose from the Dumbledore’s Army pack. Luna and Ginny both have ‘standing in a queue’ poses that could have been improved upon. To @brennon ‘s point, I think as far as good/bad, the game hits solidly on the ‘/’ for me. Some interesting mechanics, but there is a little too much going on with the different card decks and the playing boards are bland. I posted up a bit of a project where I ported it to a tabletop game to play with my daughter with a few tweaks. Still… Read more »
Really like the miniatures but as a german I sadly can’t get them.
Great looking new figures.
Those look very nice.
So I already have Luna from Gencon. But it’s great to get a shot at these other minis.
Can anyone say when those of us who didn’t jump in and get the game first time through get our chance to grab it?
The shop that I usually order from say that there has not been a set time so they won’t take any pre-orders. Kind of mysterious.
Are there issues? Or are they just building up stock for a big push? Or is the shop I buy from just out of the loop?
I play BMG and from cross posting I’m gathering that KM havent dispatched the preorders in as prompt a manner as some would like.
Some of the BMG monthly releases have been slow coming out so I think their resin production is struggling to keep up with demand at the moment. General release is probably being delayed until they can sort it out.
Thanks for the info.
the shop only has olivander am i missing something, that sirius black mini is awesome
