By now most of you know I love to collect miniature toys that work! Mostly the size of keychains or a little bigger if I am getting miniature playset. They are fun to play with and I have showcase my husband built for them. Right now my husband and son are learning how to fly miniature drones! You would think it would be quite easy but let me tell you it really has my husband stumped it is very had to fly. But the bigger toy drones are very easy. The smaller they are the harder it is to fly them.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
I didn expect too much of this item for the price...but the snitch is more of a brown or rubbed bronze than a golden color...which is odd because the wings are a shiny metallic silver, seems they could have used a shiny metallic gold on the bod. Anyway, it's cute but not really a collectible. It's alos in no way "fun" and the wings are kinda dangerous for little kids so I wouldn't call it a "toy" either. Bottom line is , I can't really figure out what type of person would buy this and why they would want it. But if you need a plastic snitch, go right ahead.
I Love that the Golden Snitch is very similar to what I imagine the real thing would look, and feel like. The golden ball part of the snitch has a good weight, it doesn't feel light or flimsy. It did come with a small sticker book, but I bought it because I wanted the Golden Snitch that came with it. The Snitch comes with a great little wooden stand to display it on! I am very satisfied, I LOVE IT! Great addition to a Harry Potter collection for an affordable price!
This item is more a toy than a collector's item. The snitch's wings don't look authentic they look silver instead of golden for example. All around though, pleased with the product. Comes with some Hogwarts/Harry Potter stickers in the form of shields. I would recommend this for young fans but would caution collectors that this is likely not what you're looking for.
Both of my elementary-school-age boys love this kit. The snitches are solely for display, not play, although they occasionally hold them and "fly" them around. We bought them about 2 months ago, and they remain on the windowsill next to our kitchen table. I asked the boys to bring their snitches to their bedrooms, but they like them near the table because they "look cool" when they eat. The sticker book that comes with it is a nice bonus.
