Personally, *I* think the reason that so much merchandise shows 
Harry and Hermione but not Ron is that the WB marketting department 
believes merchandise must have a picture of a boy for boys to buy it 
and a picture of a girl for girls to buy it. Therefore, one boy (who 
is the eponym of the whole thing!) and one girl.
