New HBP Potter Products at Comic-Con

It's that time of year, Comic-Con! As such, photos of some new Harry Potter merchandise being showcased on Comic-Con's show floor have surfaced online. You can see photos of new Half-Blood Prince NECA action figures (1, 2, 3) and board game (1, 2), thanks to MN. Gentle Giants is also showcasing some new Potter busts; unfortunately, they are prohibiting photography.

UPDATE: Further photos from the show floor can be viewed, thanks to Leaky, starting here.

HBP Stills and Promos

Quite a few new Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince images has surfaced this evening. First up, SnitchSeeker had a chance to visit the Licensing International Expo 2008 where previews for promotional photos were displayed, including new promos for Half-Blood Prince, which you can view here. There were also several displays of Order of the Phoenix merchandise, which ou can view here.

Next, Potterish has unearthed a new shot of Harry and Ginny hugging.

Lastly, we have an image that I'll admit I've known about for awhile now but was rather selective about posting. At SuperCon earlier this month actor Dean Mitchell was giving out promos of a character he'll be playing in Half-Blood Prince, woho'll appear as a guest at Slughorn's party. The first photo of the actor in costume can be viewed here, while the newer photo can be viewed .

The BlogHogwarts also has an interview with Mitchell about his role in the sixth film. However, due to "production companies confidentiality" the interview doesn't reveal much.
