Recent sightings include a working "Whomping Willow" set with a small toy Ford 
Anglia for it to bash.  However, rather than cleverly using normal willow 
branches as the 'limbs' there were two 'branches' with hands on the end, making 
it look like an anthropomorphic tree from a 1930's cartoon (which might or might 
not have been Disney).  The box was a "Whomping Willow Play Set".  I saw a 
"Hagrid's Hut" set and a "Forbidden Forest" set with big spiders and small 
figures as well.  I saw them at a Meijer's supercenter; they appear to be part 
of a trickle of CoS toys coming out in advance of the second movie.
