Almost everyone has someone in their life who is a fan of fantasy. Whether it’s Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, comics, anime, vampires, Harry Potter, World Of Warcraft, or whatever, these people are often hard to buy for. Here are some tips for shopping for the perfect gift for the fantasy fan in your life.
collectibles
They make a great gift for the fantasy fan. If they’re anime fans, get them a limited edition animation cell from their favorite series. If you’re a fan of The Lord of the Rings, there are a host of limited edition collectibles available for this series, including action figures, toys, weapons, jewelry, games, cards, replicas, art, and sculptures. Similar to the Lord of the Rings series, Harry Potter fans have a wealth of collectibles to choose from. No matter what series, show, movie, or book your recipient loves, you can be sure there are plenty of options for a collectible gift that will put a smile on their face.
comic books
Is your husband a fan of Spiderman, Ironman or any other comic book series? Consider getting them one of the rarer or older issues of their favorite series. Not only will this gift make any comic book fan happy, but it is a gift that will hold and increase in value over time.
video games
Video game aisles are packed with fantasy-related titles, from the popular Final Fantasy series to the many role-playing games set in fantasy worlds. For a fan of certain video game series, there are gift options like a 1-year World Of Warcraft gift certificate. Or maybe you have a Zelda fan among you? Consider getting them the special Nintendo DS Lite Gold Edition, which includes the Zelda Phantom Hourglass game for DS.
DVD
If someone is a fan of Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, or Harry Potter, chances are they already have the entire set of movies on DVD. However, they may not have the series on Blu-ray or they may not have the latest and greatest collector’s edition of the DVD.
Suits
Dressing up as your favorite fantasy character can be fun for parties or Halloween. Few anime fans wouldn’t want to dress up as their favorite character. Do you have feelings for Inuyasha? Maybe Naruto? There are complete costumes available that will make your fantasy fan very happy. eBay is a great place to look for these.
Weapons and Accessories
Sometimes it’s nice to have a cool accessory or weapon to show your love of fantasy. If your fantasy fan is a lover of samurai movies, Lord of the Rings, Robin Hood, or Halo, then you might be happy to own a real katana, medieval sword, or Dragonball Z sword replica.
Art
From statues to sculptures, art renderings, and lithographs, there are pieces of art available for many TV series, movies, books, and games.
Music
Maybe your fantasy fan already has the entire series of this or that, but do they have a soundtrack? Soundtracks for Japanese anime series in particular can be hard to find, a good place to look for them is eBay.
