Andrews McMeel, publishers of the US editons of the Harry Potter calendars, have now updated their website with new photos from the 2009 “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” items. As seen starting here in our image galleries, you can see the covers of a few, as well as a new photo of Dumbledore and what seems to be the locket of Slytherin.

Wow all the ones of Dan look so photoshopped. His chin looks all weird too. Dunmbledore looks awsome though. Draco looks hot

That better be the fake locket because we know what the real locket looks like (from the book 7 cover) and that one in the photo looks nothing like it. :(

Oh my god…it almost seems as though they’re not even trying to sell calenders with all of their cheesy photoshoped images…all those pictures of Harry/Dan look as if they’ve been cut out and put on crappy stationary you can get at a dollar store and are made for little children to make thank-you-notes!!! As for the locket…It’s supposed to have the S for Slytherin on it!! It doesn’t look like anything Voldemort would dare touch…let alone keep a part of his soul in it!! How un-Slytherin-ish can you get?? Ah well…at least it’s not shaped like a heart or anything and how can we possibly expect anything good from the WB after their HBP delay (even though it happened a long time ago, I can’t help but carrying on…it’s in my nature!).

Agreed on the locket. And no promo picture ever shows the withered hand. Guess that’s a spoiler for ‘movie-only’ people.

All the complaints, aside: When is this calendar going to be available? All the calendars [well, most of them] for 2009 are out! I want one! [photoshopped or not] MY personal opinion is they look fine! I guess I’m just not the picky type! As for the locket, it looks like it will be the “fake”...I don’t see ‘Slythern’s Mark’ I think Deb is right…it may be another one of the “spoilers for the movie-only people” things…..JMHO

the locket has to be the fake one left inthe basin inthe cave by Kreacher on Regulus’ orders and not the locket of Sytherin, as it bears no resemblence to the descrition given in the book, the only other possibility i can think of for no serpentine s on it is that that is the back of the locket but how dumb would the guy taking the pics have to be to do that, so its my opinion that this locket is the one that Brave Regulus and Kreacher put in the basin in the cave by the sea, when Kreacher took the real Locket, come july of next year ill be proved wrong or right or perhaps sooner if we get more locket pics

Maybe it’s not the Slytherin locket, I can’t remember exactly but maybe it’s the one Katie Bell touch and gets jinxed, but I can’t remember if it was a locket or not… Can anyone help me with this one?

@Hogwartsmallville: Katie Bell touched a NECKLACE made with opals.

While that’s true, Confederate, which is the worse delusion on this one until we get confirmation of what that is? That they screwed up the necklace that cursed Katie Bell, or that they COMPLETELY destroyed Slytherin’s Locket?

I’ll take that they screwed up the necklace…
