Magical Movie Wizard Screwdrivers

The Harry Potter Screwdriver Gives a Dose of Magic to Handy Work

— April 16, 2014 — Tech
Harry Potter may not be known as the best mechanic around, but this Harry Potter screwdriver proves that even the magically gifted have to get their hands dirty sometimes.

It’s not often that you hear magic and science thrown in together but this sonic wand truly is the best of both worlds. This screwdriver combines two cult classics -- Doctor Who and Harry Potter -- to make for an extremely geeky but functional sonic screwdriver.

The wand takes its influence from Harry Potter while the wand box takes it design from Doctor Who’s TARDIS. The wand doesn’t quite look like the old-fashioned wooden wand that we’re used to from Harry Potter, but with the good doctor in tow, the futuristic design makes a little bit more sense.


Trend Themes
1. Fantasy-inspired Tools - There is potential for a market of tools and household items that are inspired by fantasy universes to appeal to a geeky and niche community.
2. Cross-brand Merchandising - Combinations of popular media brands to create unique and innovative merchandise can be a way to attract fans from both franchises for a mutually beneficial marketing strategy.
3. Combining Functionality with Design - Creating functional tools with a unique and whimsical design can be a way to appeal to those who want both style and functionality in their everyday items.
Industry Implications
1. Fantasy Merchandise - Companies producing merchandise related to fantasy franchises can explore unique and creative designs for everyday items to broaden their product range.
2. Tool Manufacturing - Tool companies can explore creating products with a unique and whimsical design to appeal to a niche market of consumers who want functional items with a touch of personality.
3. Marketing and Advertising - Companies specializing in marketing and advertising can explore cross-branding strategies that bring together popular franchises to create merchandise that appeals to fans of both franchises.
