Harry Potter Wand with light and sound

Product Description

Expecto Patronum! Use your wand to cast a spell to defeat the Evil Lord Valdemort! Deluxe harry Potter Wand with light and sound is motion activated, has 3 magical movie sounds and lights up. A great accessory with our harry Potter costume. A must have for any true harry Potter fan! Requires two (2) "AA" batteries, not included. An officially licensed harry Potter product.

Customer Buzz
This wand is absolute junk. On the back of the wand is a plate that must be unscrewed to install two AA batteries. The batteries are a tight fit with one going up into the body of the wand. When you shake the wand or make any movement the tip of the wand lights up and makes a noise.

Within three hours, the toy no longer worked at all. My guess is that there is a loose connection but there is no way to see it because the negative connection and wire are in the body of the wand which is impossible to get to. Why they couldn't have made a better battery compartment with an on/off switch is beyond me. We didn't spend a lot for the toy but I do expect it to work for longer than three hours.

The ONLY reason we are keeping it is because my son loves it and can still pretend even though the wand does not work.

Customer Buzz
I bought a wand for each of my two sons. When I opened the package, I was surprised at how poorly made it was. The battery cover barely stayed on and the light was broken on one of them after only an hour of play.
It should be sold at Dollar stores because it certainly isn't worth what I paid for them.


Customer Buzz
I like how it's not sharp at the end. It's pretty fun to play with, my nephew enjoyed it. But it stopped making the sound about a week after playing with it. Maybe he was too rough with it?

Customer Buzz
This wand is made of soft plastic, so I wouldn't say it's going to last forever, but so far, it's been a fun toy for our little wizard. It makes cool-zap magic sounds and the tip (about an inch long) lights up (all you have to do is wave it in the air, so it's motion sensitive). For this price, it's worth it even if it doesn't last for years.

Customer Buzz
We purchased this wand for my three-year-old daughter who is obsessed with Harry Potter and loves to cast fake spells. The wand comes in a decent package and uses normal-sized batteries instead of tiny watch-size ones. (This is a plus since a previous wand we had took the small batteries, and they are expensive and annoying to replace.)

Anyway, the wand itself is a little thick, but that's probably a good thing since it proves to be fairly solid and durable overall. It does light up and make sounds when waved; there are three different sounds, but they're rather generic and lame sounding. Unfortunately, the electronic components (light and sound) are of substantially cheaper quality than the general build.

First off, getting the wand to light up and make sound takes a rather hard and swift wave, even for an adult. This made my daughter a little frustrated by it. Then, after about a week, the light and sound components stopped working consistently. Sometimes the sound will come on, and sometimes it won't. The light rarely comes on except once in a blue moon. It was disappointing to have a product fail like this after only a week.

Final verdict: The wand is fun enough to play with minus the light and sound, but paying the price for defective electronic components isn't so nice.

Customer Buzz
The wand with sound and light isn't what I was expecting, but we have enjoyed it. I knew it lit up and was expecting it to be more of a flashlight, but it actually lights when you "cast spells" with it. The action of your arm movement causes it to light and make "magical" sounds. It has 3 different sounds that it makes. It has been fun-I'm as big a kid when it comes to stuff like this as my children are!

Customer Buzz
This was a Christmas present and it was very well received. I researched other ones and this one had the best features.

Customer Buzz
We're die-hard Harry Potter fans and we LOVE this wand. With sounds and a lighted end that emulate the films, both my little wizards (ages 5 & 8) have had hours of fun casting spells galore. It's the closest thing to a "real" Harry Potter wand I've found - and I've searched everywhere. Durable and affordable, too.

Customer Buzz
My son was very happy with it. It has 3 different sounds and light. The only inconvinient is that it has not an on and off button, so it is always on.

Customer Buzz
this was what my nephew really wanted for Christmas. it was inexpensive enough, that should have been a warning. it took fits to get the batteries in right so that it would turn on. then once it started working after a few "spells" it started shorting out. maybe lasted 5 minutes. we were always able to resurrect it but i doubt it will last longer than a few weeks. i would have preferred to have spent more and been assured he could enjoy it for a long while.

Clue Harry Potter

Product Description

Was it Draco Malfoy with a Sleeping Draught in the Owlery? Kids will love taking on the roles of their favorite Harry Potter characters in this HP twist on the classic game clue. Race through the halls of Hogwarts to discover who did it and what spell or magical item was used and where the student was attacked. Hasbro Games. Ages: 9+

Customer Buzz
I got this game for our 10 year old in April. She and her friends tried to play it at her birthday party, but there are so many parts, and the setup to start to play takes so long, that they ended up just making up their own game with the various pieces. Since then, we tried to set it up to play again, and there are about 10 different stacks of different kinds of cards and tokens to keep separated. I'm putting them each in plastic baggies so setup is easier next time. The mechanics of just getting going on this aren't hard, just time-consuming, and have prevented us from actually being able to play the game yet... If they could streamline that process I'm sure it would be a lot more fun.

Customer Buzz
We love this game--loved the classic Clue and love having something different, but the same. Great for Harry Potter fans, but anyone can play.

Customer Buzz
The rules are complicated enough that you have to think hard, think fast, and think positive with the group playing-- give it a practice round, or forgive mistakes. We had a very competitive college-age crowd playing and it was a success.

Customer Buzz
After putting the game together we quickly realized it was a little too much for us. There are a number of added features that become confusing and muddles the game. We decided to throw out all the "extras" and play it like the original Clue game and then it became fun. But it was disappointing that the game makers felt they had to add to it to make it enjoyable. Our kids are 10 and 9 and both did not like the extra challenges at all.

Customer Buzz
I bought this for my wife who is a Harry Potter fanatic. I like the books and movies, but am not much into remakes of clue. But once I played this, I was hooked. I love the randomness, the fairness, and the fact of the possibility that no one can win. It is worthwhile for anyone, and a great buy.

Customer Buzz
We opened this early Christmas week. College kids home and game night took place in front of fire. We loved it because even though you might know who caused a disappearance of a main character, where it happened, and how it was done you may never get the chance because of the dark mark! It causes you to lose house points. So you might be out of the game when your house points are gone! The room entry doors are sealed at different times. Same rules as the other Clue game, but added tweeks(Dark Mark and spells)make this game really fun.

Customer Buzz
I purchased this for my niece for Christmas. She's only 8 and the age starts at 9 but she's quite intelligent however, the difficulty of comprehension for that age is a few years off compared to a regular CLUE game. Her 18 and 20 year old cousins sat with her at Christmas and it took the three of them almost an hour and a half to comprehend the concept before they could actually play the game. They said it was fun once you got it down but said if they had to try to explain the rules to someone else it would take just as long to get through before game play could actually begin. Takes a lot of the fun out of it.

Customer Buzz
I love the game clue and this is a great variation on it. It adds some twists and turns that aren't in the basic Clue game. It is a little more complicated to learn, but once you learn it, it is easy to play. The spinning wheels under the game board are more durable than I would expect.

Customer Buzz
Anyone who is a Clue fan and can't get enough of Harry Potter will enjoy this new version of "Clue". With the market being flooded with electronic gizzmos, it's nice to have a board game to play with family.

Customer Buzz
Awesome game! You need to play it a few times before you figure out all of the rules. The dark mark cards can apply to all players or one. Read the entire card carefully. If you have extra cards that are in Dumbledor's office you can go in and look at them they are not hidden.
