I guess I missed the part where Hermione was a hobo/banshee.
(Seriously. How hard would it be to just make… like.. a tiny tie for them or something so it’s obvious they’re the character’s you’re trying to represent?)
I find these super creepy, and I don’t normally find dolls creepy. Just imagine waking up to Harry crawling over your face with those big blue eyes. Gah!
Um. Okay, clearly I’ve lost my mind because I think these are freakin cute. I need to go see if someone put something in my drink that is potentially conflicting with what I already put in my drink.
These are so horribly off-model that I can only assume they’re actually cursed artifacts and the buyer is attempting to offload them as fast as possible by piggybacking them onto the merchandising for the latest movie. They should’ve just come out and admitted “Yeah, I pissed off a swamp witch and now these little guys follow me around stabbing my calves with upholstery needles, and also I’ve been peeing blood a little bit but that could be the hep”, people will totally pay out the nose for that. Or…well…out the calves, anyway.
Ok. Why is Harry wearing so much eyeliner? Why is he wearing a black onesie? Why is he doing jumping jacks?
The woman who makes these really, really needs to take a lesson from the lady who knits meerkats that look like people. Those little meerkats are sooo cute! And through the use of clothing and props the artist makes look like who they’re supposed to be.
It would have been pretty easy to make these look like characters from Harry Potter if they had been wearing the uniforms! Or carrying little wands! Or anything other than doing jumping jacks in black onesies!!
Odd- these suck, yet her other stuff is kinda cute. I bet a ton of people get earrings for their pal who loves Mario/Twilight/Starbucks etc. The festive skulls were gorgeous actually! I wonder if she’d do a charm bracelet like the Dr Who one except using photos from a client. Wouldn’t that be cool? Pics of one’s pets, or relatives, or BFFs…sweetness! (I don’t wear jewelry, but I’d recommend this to a friend.)
But yeah…terrible dolls. I’ve never read or seen any of that franchise, but even I know he should have a zig-zag scar! And his pal wouldn’t have “rasta hair”(kudos to Glitterherpes for that lovely description!), as she’s rather a perfectionist, no? Wouldn’t a braid be more suitable? And I second the suggested school ties.
At least i don’t seem to have to try that hard if I do want to post things on Etsy…I could make better dolls with my hands tied behind my back by my optic nerves.

Half-assed? Oh, come on, that is ALL ass.
December 8, 2010 at 5:22 pm
Damn, I’m jealous of Harry’s fro, and Hermione’s… body bush?
December 8, 2010 at 5:22 pm
damn that has some uncanny likeness to the love child of a monchci and a sock monkey. just give them a tail
least they asked a reasonable price though

harry potter looks more like frankenfurter. as for hermione- she looks like captain caveman
December 8, 2010 at 5:24 pm
It’s not the best Harry Potter, but easily one of the best Robert Smith amigurumis I’ve seen lately.
December 8, 2010 at 5:28 pm
the voodoo pins are extra? cheap.

Giving all Amigurumi-ers a bad name.

That is ALL wrong. Harry’s eyes are GREEN!

is it just me, or does Hermione look more like Hagrid, sans beard?

Show me on the doll where the bad man touched you…
December 8, 2010 at 5:33 pm
Am I seeing this right – 99 sales and they just opened this month?
I sense dark magic is at work here.

Hermione playing Charo playing Rachel Welch in 1 Million Years BC.
Am I dating myself?
December 8, 2010 at 6:07 pm
Since when did Hermione switch to the Rasta way of life?
December 8, 2010 at 6:30 pm
She plans to make 3 more of those Harry Potters and sell them as the 1960s Beatles next week. And Cher. That’s Cher. No question.

@Trousers Rolled-You beat me to it! Don’t feel old, I’m not old and I’ve seen it.
December 8, 2010 at 7:05 pm
I thought I read all the books I didn’t realize there was one where they were possessed by demons.
December 8, 2010 at 7:06 pm
I thought Harry’s scar was only on his forehead. I
didn’t realize it covered his whole face.
December 8, 2010 at 7:22 pm
Arrrrgh. The blue eyes startled me and now I have lights on.
December 8, 2010 at 7:27 pm
Harry has terrifying bug eyes and it looks like the seller made Hermione’s body out of what she pulled out of her bathtub drain.
That wasn’t a very funny first post (well, it’s my second post here, my first was indignation at a Mammy doll). Oh well. Hi guys.
December 8, 2010 at 7:32 pm
AT first I thought this was Edward and Bella.

Note to self: make more things that have to do with Harry Potter, vampires, video games, and bacon.

Don’t you worry EverThing, she’s in a category by herself. And I don’t think it has anything remotely to do with Amigurumi.
December 8, 2010 at 8:02 pm
You mean they AREN’T a bladeless Edward Scissorhands and half a stuffed Bob Ross? I feel cheated.
December 8, 2010 at 8:22 pm
Austin Powers and Raquel Welch (thankyou trousersrolled), maybe.
December 8, 2010 at 8:32 pm
Well at least they got Hermione right. Those eyebrows were WAY outta control.

Remember when Phil Spector was a guest star on Sigmund and the Sea Monsters?
Good times.

@squidslooklikedicks
However, all those sales are to HERSELF. How does that work on Etsy???
December 8, 2010 at 11:13 pm
Sorry, I somehow misunderstood the etsy listing for sales (even though I’m on it quite a bit). Anyways, yea, more than 100 sales. WTF?!
December 8, 2010 at 11:24 pm
The whole point of amigurumi is that they be cute. Even an amigurumi Cthulu manages to be “awww, what a cute little evil guy!”
These are not cute.

s/he is a wizard with shrink-plastic though….

Did you see the rest of her shop? I call shenanigans. This smells of reseller.

whoa i looked at the first one and thought it was some funky blue eyed kid disco dancing.
December 9, 2010 at 11:15 pm
Look what Hermione’s cat coughed up!
December 10, 2010 at 6:59 am
I’m so ashamed of myself. I want the Mr. Potato Head earrings she has for sale…
but these are just so ugly they’re kinda endearing, Harry in particular.
December 10, 2010 at 6:56 pm
For the love of god HIS EYES ARE GREEN. This person can’t make dolls OR read apparently.
I registered just so I could vent my frustration haha.
