Harry Potter: Wizard's Collection Review

The deluxe, most massive and immersive film collector's edition is here. Harry Potter Wizard's Collection is a must own for every Potter fan who can afford it.

The set is set in a large cabinet, decorated with Hogwarts crests, which make it look original and fitting for an ultimate collector's edition of the films. It is fully openable with mini cabinets that contain various Potter goodies, and looks overall stunning. But aside from its memorable design, the set includes both the DVD, Blu-Ray, and Ultraviolet Digital Copy of every Potter film. Apart from the standard editions, the set also includes the extended edition of both the first Potter film and Chamber of Secrets. The additional scenes sums up to 15 minutes, which isn't mind-blowing, and they have already been released in the ultimate editions of the films, it was a welcome edition and remains the version I prefer when I collect my childhood again. However, the emptiness of the other extended editions for the other films, disappointed me. This was supposed to be the complete 'Potter' film experience where a complete set of extended editions would be more than fitting. But this disappointment washed away quickly, after I discovered the other things in the collection.

There are 31 discs in total, 31 discs! And of that there are 15 discs of special features. The art on the disc is also fabulous, with patterns that represent sequences from the various films. The special features itself has been seen before in the ultimate editions, but since the Deathly Hallows Ultimate Edition hadn't been released before September 2012, it was a nice exclusive alongside the immersive bonus disc. Overall there is a lot to sink your teeth into.

There are more than just discs in this set, if you look closely and discover secret mini cabinets, you will be able to find beautiful concept art, alongside sketches of iconic settings from the series, a catalog of artifacts and objects such as the Horcruxes and Honeydukes sweets, a massive blueprint of the set and Hogwarts, a colorful map of Hogwarts and other locations, and a replica of the Slytherin Locket. The addition of the locket surprised and pleased me. It was an authentic Noble Collection item, which is worth a good bit.

Harry Potter Wizard's Collection is a set to keep for the ages. Not very quickly will you forget the giant cabinet sitting on your shelf, every Potter fan should save their cash quickly, since this set is limited, and currently hard to find. The inclusion of the extended editions of the other films apart from Sorcerer's Stone and Chamber of Secrrets would have made this collection perfect, however it still remains a must for all Potter fans who can afford and find it.
