Are these THE ODDEST Harry Potter Book Covers in the World?

- Опубліковано 9 тра 2020
- There are so many incredible Harry Potter book covers. While these are the oddest, in my opinion, I still LOVE them. It is fun to explore and see how different countries interpret the stories differently. These Persian books from Iran were interestingly interpreted. You may even see some Jurassic Park on one of the books... SERIOUSLY!
Unfortunately, these are now out of print. You can find them used on sites like eBay and AbeBooks. A new edition in Persian has been released.

Ok I'm going to rewatch goblet of fire and I'm going to see if lex and Tim are hiding between the rocks in the first task 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
HAHA!
Lol
@@ThePotterCollector Hey man.. What would you recommend between Harry Potter adult covers and Scholastic hardcovers ?
I'm very much confused between these two ?
Which one to buy? Please help.
DUDE MAKE A VIDEO PURELY ON UNAUTHORIZED HARRY POTTER BOOKS.
Include unauthorized merch, too! Even funnier... buy the knockoffs!
I love how you’re trying to make connections to some of the craziness. “The tiger makes sense because Crookshanks is described as having stripes.” Haha! These are nuts.
Megan Mckinnon Haha! The Danish translation of PoA has a tiger on the back cover as well. 😄 Probably a translation thing? It’s just too funny to imagine Hermione with a tiger.
@@ThePotterCollector That can't be the Danish version, it doesn't have Crookshanks on it. Maybe Swedish or Norwegian version? Greetings from Denmark🇩🇰⚡
Niller There is a tiger on the back cover of the Danish paperback of Prisoner of Azkaban by Per O Jorgensen.
@@ThePotterCollector Oh I didn't know, I own the hardback versions🤦♂️Well now I know🙂
I was thinking the same thing. Stripes=tiger. Bit of a stretch, but ok!
It’s almost like someone got an inaccurate plot summary of the books, and then was told to create a cover representing everything from the plot, only using free pictures from google.
Haha!
I think the artist was drunk, high, and heavily in love, and slapped these covers together with a big grin on his face, in a big hurry to go see his girl. 😂 They are the best!
Lol
lol 😂😂😂😂
Drinking is a crime in iran which will get u a 1-5 year sentence
Drinking is forbidden in Iran...
I think the only computer that this artist had, had a Windows 95 on it. He did this design by Microsoft Paint on Windows 95... 😂😂
Its like Window's 95 clipart and 1980s book cover art had a baby... lol
So true
I am iranian and i really hate this covers. When I was a kid, I tried so many time to understand the covers😂
Hi. Just wanted to let everyone know that
the first and third book boy is actually part of a ripoff hindi movie of Harry Potter. I can't believe that they used that boy instead of Daniel Radcliffe
ruchika jha 🙏 thanks
Wow really? what's the name of the movie?
Shreenidhish, The Gajirva Abra ka Dabra and Harri Putter
Himanshu Thakur lol
Never saw that movie
I am iranian and me and my frinds still dont get it.
Does it say dragons in the text for GOF or did it get translated into dinosaurs? :-)
Dinky Whippet Great question!
@@ThePotterCollector do you think the fist one might be quirrel running away from voldemort
@@TheSplashchannel1 no, the translation is correct. it's just the cover.
@@TheSplashchannel1 no the translation is correct
This is weird but cool. Even though some covers creeped me out a little.
These books are just crazy haha! Jurassic Park?!
Someone might have said this but the “Harry” on books 1 & 3 look like johnathan lipnicki when he was in Little Vampire....
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Exactly what I was thinking
“and then harry potter has gone blonde”
Haha
Those are amazing in their weirdness, it’s like someone kinda knew what the books were about, and kinda knew how to use clip art.
Reminds me of something I saw a few years back where people were trying to recreate movie posters and such using only the basic Microsoft clip art package.
Haha so true!
Did they forget to erase "Bloomsbury" at the bottom of the cover on the last part of Deathly Hallows? LOL
Yeah 😂
I love all these covers . The wildest is with the Jurassic Park . But I also still love them so much
Some of them are 100% don’t judge a book by its cover. It’s not what the outside is, it’s what’s inside that counts. It’s still HP which we all love.
Would love to read a mashup of Jurassic part and HP that would truly be entertaining. These covers made my day.
The boy on the Chamber of Secrets is from Jerry Tiritilli. He illustrated the book the pagemaster which is also a lovely book
I've just watched you struggling to make sense out of this crazy covers for ten minutes and I honestly loved every second of it

Love your videos! Thank you for adding to my already enormous amount of Harry Potter knowledge! I will be going to the Wizarding world of Harry Potter in August or September! I might see you there!
The Harry Potter and Jurassic park crossover!! I love it. That needs to happen.
As always an awesome video!! Thank you for being one of the people who inspired me to start my own channel! 🎊
The cover art is so creative I love it ❤️
i love this channel! this is great content!!
Hey thanks!
That first sentence got me very confused. 🤣 (RANDOM QUESTION ALERT) What type of music do you like to listen
Rock and jazz
Hello!! Love Your Videos!
Some of the unauthorized books reminds me of Simpson’s when homer dressed his pig up in glasses and gave him a lightning bolt scar and called him Harry Plopper lmao.😂😂
Spider pig! Spider pig! 😆
Although it's funny and wacky, I REALLY dislike these covers. They're all missing something about the normal covers. I feel like they dishonored the Harry Potter universe by doing that... I'm sorry that I sound like a salty butthead but I'm just venting how I feel about it.
Van Hohenheim I agree tho
The time has come for me here in GA to get back into the real world and tomorrow is my first day back to work after 60 days. 😫 I'm having a TON of anxiety! Thanks for keeping us entertained and focused on what makes us happy, during this time, Peter!! You've helped me so much!
Wish me luck, y'all!
You got this!
Yay another Potter Collector video 😁
Great channel!
this is so much fun😂❤️❤️
The little tinker bell omg I can’t😂😂
Love it!!! Thanks for this entertaining video 🙏.
I would be curious to get a closer look at just your German books. Could you possibly do a video on them? I’m from Germany and don’t totally understand the differences about the different editions, etc. There’s nobody who knows as much about them as you do I feel like!! :)
There are so many editions it would be a good video for sure.
The goblet of fire is my favorite! I LOVE dinosaurs, and the Jurassic Park series. I want that book just for the cover
I'm an Iranian Potterhead and these are the first books that I bought with my own allowance many years ago, so these books are my babies but even to this day I look at the covers and go what in the actual hell?! 🤣🤣🤣
Oh my God! I'm Iranian and I have been looking for this video for a long time! This is an older version of the book. Now people mostly buy the version which doesn't have any picture on the cover. (I think you also have that one) but you can still buy this version from the stores. And although I think they've changed it now but in the last printings of this book they had spelled Hermione like "her.mi.on" but after J.k Rowling talking about it and correcting people I guess they changed it in the edition you have.😂😂 BTW Thanks for posting this!😆😆😆
Oh wow 🦕 and Snow White lol too funny - these are fantastic 😂
Hahaha this video is awesome, love you Peter!!!
The Harry and Hermione on the first part of Order of the Phoenix's cover could've been used on the cover for the first book! Also, those illustrations are by Mark Braught and they were used for merchandising before the movies came out and even during the movies.
the covers are so chaotic....love it
Idk what’s funnier, the actual cover or your reactions LMAO these are great
These crazy books are my first harry potter books, and back in the time I used to hate them since they were not related to the story and I hated the dinosaurs the most but now that they are out of print I really love these since they reminde me of my teenage years and becoming a potterhead :))
Absolutely crazy! But also kinda fun 🤗
This is crazy!! Lol love it! 🐾
Do you have the Italian HP books? J.K. Rowling thought of them as the oddest.
The picture of the blond boy on the chamber of secrets cover is taken directly from one of my favorite children's books- The Pagemaster!
I loves this!!! It was so funny and made me laugh!! 🤣🤣💙💙
I am absolutely LOVING the Philosopher's Stone cover. I started dying laughing at it and I couldn't stop laughing for a good minute, it's just so wacky. I love it.
I'm also loving the Order of the Pheonix third part cover. That's another that I started dying laughing at.
Omg I am so early!! Love your channel ❤️
Love these bookcovers
I know about 4 different Farsi translations but only this one is available now . Sadly I have the second edition with "normal" covers. I read this translation and it is normal and not as wacky as I expected but edited to meet their cultural standarts .I really want to buy them but can not find any for reasonable prince . You must see their Witcher books ,they used arts from games for cover and of course picture of Henry Cavil .
Ooh this the earliest I’ve been to a potter collector video :)))
These books are crazy but also cool. The goblet of fire and the order of the phoenix covers are the craziest for me.
the goblet of fire cover had me dying. this was hilarious oh my god
Your library is so cool
Thanks!
Thank you for making me smile today.
You're welcome!
I think the dude running in the first book it’s Peeves ...
Hi Peter hope, you are safe from covid 19 . I like all your video's and this is my first comment on potter Collector channel and your today's video is fun to watch. Keep collecting
Hope you are safe too! I am.
it was just too extraordinarily funny !!!!
Early again, love you video's🎉⚡️
I don't remember seeing Lex and Tim in the Goblet of Fire..or reading about them in the book. Lol so funny.
I have never seen them but honestly I agree with you about book 4 and 1
I would agree with what you have chosen goblet of Fire is the craziest one. Also I think the boy they are using in book one and three is the boy from the Little Vampire. He looks very similar to him.
oh my goodness they are so unique, fun and odd :)
I love your all video's
I am from iran too and these covers always make me laugh . Good job. Please review 20th anniversary thai edition too
You rock Peter!
Acquiring this Goblet of Fire/Jurassic Park edition is now my absolute collecting goal 😂
This video is the perfect way to start my day ahaha
Love your vids stay safe
You should do an overview of all the season passes offered at universal studios and why you chose the preferred etc.
Dameee after weeks managed to be at 606 viewer....Lovee your videoo sirrr 😍😍😍
I love your videos especially your haul and unboxing vids. I myself have been a closet ''Potterhead'' for a short while. I cut my HP teeth on the movies and took the Pottermore Sorting Hat Quiz and apparently I am A PROUD HUFFLEPUFF.
Time to come out of the closet. There are plenty of us Potterheads outside!
For some reason they remind me of those nonsensical bootleg Yu-Gi-Oh cards and I'm loving it
Some of these remind me of when I'd do book reports on books I didn't even read only read the synopsis on. Haha!
LOL
I know this video is older but I just had to say these are some of my favorite covers because they make no sense but are also just epic.
Hi from Iran 😂😂 this is so funny and as a child growing up with this books I never realized how weird they were lol
hey petter love your videos, actually just finished all 49 of your wizarding world of harry potter vids. have never got to go but hoping to once this pandemic is over. also was wondering how you know what house you are in. is it like a online quiz of do u just chose? thanks for all the great videos and for any advice you can give.
I am in Slytherin. :) Hope you make it to Wizarding World soon! Get sorted at wizardingworld.com
The Potter Collector thanks👍
I think the first cover, the guy running, I imagine that as Harry's Uncle..running scared after the envelopes and Hagrid!
wow im early and these book covers are crazy like what!!!
You might already know this but Thailand’s 20 anniversary Harry Potter books came out and they look really cool! Plus they make sense!
it looks cool
I really love your channel! When do you plan on making another giveaway?
I just don't understand how they weren't sued!!! So fun though!!
You can't. We don't have copyright laws . ( horrible, I know )
Actualy it is because these is no copyright law in Iran and we live somewhere you just hear about it in the news😉
These book covers are just funny and fun
I love your vids
Anyone else think that lex and Tim should have fought the dinosaurs with wands??👌😆😂
The intro got me laughing lol
I thought that the four faces were the house ghosts until I realized that there was no grey lady. Love your videos Peter.
Hi petter I love your video 💖💖💖
Love you video
These are some hilarious covers
Yes here so early and I'm stoked!!!
Hi Peter! I just recently subscribed and I was wondering (perhaps you already answered this but I couldn't find in the videos!), do you still have your original hp books you first read? Which edition were they? Maybe someone else in the comments have the answer?? Love your videos! xx
Sadly, I do not have them anymore. :( Welcome to The Potter Collector community!
😂 I remember when I was 11 and tried to find out some connection between the cover and the stroy. Anyway hopefully the translation by Mrs Vida Eslamie is the best one here and quite satisfying especially when I could read the original English books, there are only some little eliminated parts😄 which is inevitable in Islamic Iran and translators and publishers can't do anything about it. I guess once Hermion kissed Harry's cheek which was cut from the book, and a very fine subtle cutting "kiss" word from the Harry and the Goblet of fire and 😂 again " kiss" word between Jinny and Harry
Where did you get the Harry Potter Peter Pan book? Those are my two favorite worlds mashed together!!!
Probably eBay
My favorite is GoF!
Lol! This is wild thanks so much for sharing these for all of us who never would have seen 😂
No problem!!
