McFarlane Toys to Debut Wizarding World Collectible Figures from Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts

McFarlane Toys and Warner Bros. Consumer Products (WBCP) will unveil a new line of premium collectible action figures based on the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts at Toy Fair New York. Ranging in size from 6 inches to 12 inches, the figures will be available at mass and specialty retailers later this year.

“The Wizarding World captures the emotions of its fans unlike any other,” says Todd McFarlane, owner and CEO of McFarlane Toys. “Taking the iconic imagery from the Wizarding World and creating figures for everyone to take home is quite an honor for me.”

The first wave of highly articulated action figures will include Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, and Lord Voldemort, as seen in the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows films. Additionally, Buckbeak the Hippogriff from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban will be included in the assortment.

McFarlane Toys will showcase the Wizarding World action figure prototypes at the Javits Center in booth No. 1379 from Feb. 16-19.
