Instructables user KaptinScarlet has managed to make one of the most noticeable props from the Harry Potter franchise with his Mad Eye Moody Mad Eye how-to.
He states the reason behind this wonderful DIY: “Mad Eye Moody was one of my favourite Harry Potter characters. Brusque but brutally honest, tough and resourceful, with a compassionate side, he is the wizarding world’s best known cyborg as a result of his prosthetic magical eye.”
The Mad Eye Moody Mad Eye DIY project is a perfect idea to don for the final film’s premiere or alternatively, use as a Halloween costume.
Implications - Consumers want to re-create their favorite franchise's products throughout their lifestyle. By doing this, they escape the real world and allow themselves to play into their fantasies.
