Wazzup Pilipimas!
This holiday season, Harry Potter fans have the chance to buy or even take a glimpse of their favorite Harry Potter merchandise without going out of the country.
The first-ever Museum Context pop-up store in the country can be found at the first level of Mall of Asia Main Mall (near National Bookstore).
Museum Context is the official home of curated magical Harry Potter merchandise which is headquartered in Edinburgh Scotland.
From November 9 until the whole month of December, customers can shop for books, pens, bags, hair accessories, scarves, film replicas, and other limited edition items such as the magical broom Nimbus 2000.
Apart from books and stationeries, here are other items that can be found in the pop-up store in MOA :
1. Character wands - Wands are everything in Harry Potter. Each wand possesses a specific build and power, making each one unique, and perfect for their chosen "master." There are two types of wands that
can be found inside the Museum Context Manila - curated wands or replicas and the wands that are actually used in the series of Harry Potter movies.
2. Fashionable Scarves - Colors of each Hogwarts scarf correspond to one of the four Hogwarts noble houses.
- Scarlet and gold for Gryffindor house
- Blue and Bronze for Ravenclaw house
- Yellow and black for Hufflepuff house
- Green and silver for Slytherin house.
3. Hedwig Sculpture - Hedwig is Harry's pet owl that plays a valuable role in Harry's life as messenger, companion and friend.
4. Wax Seals - These are used by sophisticated witches and wizards to
seal their owl post. Each metal seal is molded in tribute to Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, or Hogwarts itself. Each seal measures approximately 4" tall, and the set comes with sealing
wax in Hogwarts colors.
5. Harry Potter Final Challenge Chess Set - The 32 die-cast zinc chess pieces are exact replica of the set seen in the movie Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. The set comes complete with a striking plexiglass playing board measuring 20 x 20 inches.
There are more than a hundred or two of original and licensed products and collectibles from the Museum Context Scotland that were brought to Manila. This is very rare chance for Potterheads, Harry Potter geeks, Harry Potter fans (however they want to call themselves) to see and
feel these products that can only be found in stores in Scotland and Hongkong.
Don't forget to come by and get the chance to try the super amazing INVISIBILITY CLOAK, which operates together with a mobile app. Anyone who purchases any product from the store gets to try the cloak. They can have a copy of their video while they "disappear" sent via email.
