Take a step within the halls of the Gringotts Bank with a bunch of products that can bring back fond memories, or kick-start your imagination with something you can never have or go to. I missed out on tossing the good ol’ Gringotts goblin up in here, but…I figured I’d get to characters in a later post.
Plus he doesn’t make me feel very safe about my coinage.
I love how a lot of these products are actually piggy banks to save up some change in. After all, Gringotts is meant to keep your savings safe and secure. (Especially when there’s a dragon keeping watch on top of the building.)
I don’t think the movie features a dragon on top though, right?
It was just from a Universal ride?
Collectibles
Christmas Ornament
There’s another Gringotts building look-alike to this one mentioned below, except it’s not an ornament, and I don’t think it’s nearly detailed as this little beauty. Perfect for those who want to bring a little Hogwarts to their Christmas tree.
Gringotts Bank Set
There’s a couple shops that have stand-alone items, such as the key to the vaults or replicas of the coins, but I like the fact that TheNewCuriousityStore on Etsy decided to combine them all.
So you don’t have to make multiple purchases.
Fashion
Dragon Pin
If you’ve been to Universal Studios and took a ride on the Gringotts coaster (mentioned further down in this post), then you might like to wear this pin of the building and dragon. It’s not every day you get to see a dragon sitting atop a building, after all.
Then again you can be a poser that wears it without actually having been to Universal.
Home Decor
Cart in Action Bank
Since there’s no description on it in the Amazon section, I’m going to assume when you drop money in, the figures on the cart are supposed to take off downward and you can reset it? Or maybe you have to move them to show the coin slot?
They don’t provide many images, so it’s hard to tell.
Gringotts Bank Bank
It’s kind of a look-alike to the ornament, as mentioned above, but you can see the dragon is a bit more bland that the one the ornament gives us. I wish they put a little more effort into that beast, but otherwise, this is good for kids who want to save up some change.
Nothing’s safer than Gringotts, after all.
Gringotts Bank Scented Candle
LovelyPrairieCo over on Etsy actually has two different Scented candles for the bank, but the only difference I could see was the actual imagery they did for the label. Kind of an odd and subtle difference.
Gringott’s Vault Bank
I like this bank for coins, because it’s not over-the-top with blingage or detail. It’s literally the Gringotts vault and has a rocky structure against it. It’s obvious what the bank is a nod to if you’ve seen the movies or read the books, so start chucking that change in and saving up the coins.
Harry Potter Makes Bank
I only found this item on eBay, so I don’t know if it’s discontinued or rare enough to not be mentioned on Amazon. (Or I completely missed it.) Either way, I like this little bank because it features Harry and a mass of coins.
Like he’s sneaking around his inheritance.
Kitchenware
Chocolate Coin Mould
Well, if you or your family are Harry Potter fans and know what the currency should look like, then you might like to try out this mould for making chocolate coins as a snack. Even if others might not know, they’ll ask and it’ll spark conversation regarding the fandom, no doubt.
Toys & Games
Checkers Set
I’m sure checkers is not quite as hazardous as chess when it comes to playing it at Hogwarts. Man, it’s been so long since I actually played checkers, but I was always a fan of it.
The only board I played on was kind of like a rug, but it’s cool that the checkered pieces are Gringotts coins.
Vacations
Universal Studios Florida – Tickets
If you’ve never been to this theme park before, then you’ve probably heard of it. But even if you haven’t heard much about it, the reason it’s on this page is because it houses an indoor steel roller coaster straight outta Harry Potter.
At this theme park you’re able to ride Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts!
