In the Harry Potter series, the Golden Snitch is the most important ball used in the popular wizarding sport known as Quidditch, and for that reason it is small, fast, and hard to catch. That job is the responsibility of the Seeker, though I don’t think that catching this Golden Snitch backpack is going to be particularly difficult. Everyone in the vicinity of the person carrying it will surely be able to see it. They might even be blinded by it. I have to imagine that the shiny exterior is going to be intense in the sun.

Of course, you’ll have to wear something Harry Potter-themed with it. Something like Quidditch hoodies. Hogwarts varsity jackets are another fine option. There are even Quidditch swimsuits, goggles, and sleep sets (which would pretty awesome and comfortable to wear outside during the summer).
The Harry Potter Golden Snitch backpack is officially licensed and available to pre-order from Merchoid for $39.99, and that includes shipping. The compartment measures around 11″x11″x5″, which isn’t particularly big. It’s more of a mini backpack really. Still, it should have enough room to carry around your devices, books, potions and wands. Everything can be zipped up with a Harry Potter logo zipper which, not surprisingly, is also shiny.
Stock appears to be limited, so you’ll want to snatch this bag up to dazzle your friends and anyone else within a 100 foot radius. Take a closer look at the backpack from all angles in the gallery.
Speaking of Quidditch, Funko will be bringing a fantastic Harry Potter Quidditch Pop! figure to SDCC this year along with Luna Lovegood, and an Occamy Pop! figure from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
