Stocking fillers, would you buy Star Wars or Harry Potter?

[Romanceisntdead]

If you had the choice to buy items as stocking fillers, would you more lijely go for:

Star Wars or Harry Potter

Harry potter

Lord of the Rings or Star Trek, personally. But of your given options, Harry Potter.

Surely it depends on the preference of the recipient

I just want to an idea of whats more popular

They are both popular with people who enjoy them. It would depend entirely on what the recipient prefers surely?

Depends if they prefer sci fi or fantasy

My girls would have Harry Potter any day of the week, the boys would go for Star Wars. Surely it depends on the preference of the recipient?

UPDATE
Yes it does depend...but the questuon is what would YOU buy as stocking fillers Harry Potter or Star Wars or neither

For me Harry Potter. But im not who you are buying/selling for

I would buy Star Wars

Harry Potter is imo more likely to appear to a wider age range and equally popular with both sexes.

But the depends is "what the recipients like". I wouldn't buy either if they were not something the recipients liked. Why would you do otherwise?

But what I would buy would depend on who I was buying it for… I would buy Star Wars based on what my son likes, but you might be buying for a Harry Potter fanatic so it doesn’t matter what’s more popular.

The OP may well be
. buying for a charity gift / child in care
. buying for a specific child they don't know for some other reason
. making something so wanting to know which might be more popular

Star Wars for my son and me. Harry Potter for DD. Neither for DH.

Dh, ds1 would prefer Star Wars. Me and 2dds would like Harry Potter. The other 5 dc in the house wouldn't like either.

One of my children loves Star Wars but they both love Harry Potter so I suppose HP has a wider appeal in our house.

Adult stocking fillers here: Harry Potter for DD, Star Wars for her DP.

<no help at all>

The answer is STILL -it would depend on what the recipient prefers. I wouldn’t buy either of those things for someone unless I knew what they liked.

If your question is “which do YOU prefer” my answer would be HP.

Then she should have posted that. People are answering her question honestly.

HP

Could be 50/50 or 0.

I would probably avoid both if I knew that the recipient's family was strongly religious, or if there were reasons to avoid weaponry or things associated with combat.

On the whole, if it was for a random child unknown to me, I wouldn't buy either, just in case.

Star Wars in this house.

Who is receiving it. Age?
Totally different things so you need to give us an idea what they like. They may well not like either.

I will but HP for my DD who prefers HP and SW for DS who prefers SW.

If I bought the other way round they'd both be disappointed.

Popularity isn't relevant.
