Young Potter and Previous Dumbledore, Back in Action
If you’re a Harry Potter fan and a toy collector, then I probably don’t need to tell you you were kind of screwed when it came to quality action figures from the first few movies, as Mattel was more worried about pleasing the 6-10 year-olds than the insane adult collectors (for some reason). Luckily, NECA has waved its magic wand and brought forth this two-pack of the Richard Harris Dumbledore and Year 2 Harry Potter, complete with Fawkes, the Sorting Hat and the Sword of Gryffindor. Also, I think in a pinch, you could use Harry as a k.d. lang action figure, should the situation require one.
