The US edition has a scene, which very well could be from the final 
confrontation between Harry and Voldemort. At the very least, it 
definitely shows *a* confrontation between Harry and Voldemort. They 
are in what seems to be an arena or something, and there are several 
shadows, who seem to watch the encounter. <snip>

I couldn't help noticing the pulled back curtains.  Although arena-like, I'm
betting on the veil in the MoM.  Could they actually be *BEHIND* it?  Are
the shadows the passed souls? Would the cover art actually give away such an
amazing development?

My favourite is the British children edition: The Trio is on it, in 
the scene where they seem to find the Hufflepuff-Horcrux. It seems to 
be hidden within a tresure, or something, and the Trio are definitely 
about to get attacked. Ron is holding a (Gryffindor's?) sword. Also 
on the british children edition is a picture of Hogwarts with the 
Whoomping Willow, the Prongs' Patronus and Nagini what seems to be in 
a prophecy orb.

Stacey now:

 

I agree it's my favorite if only because it has more things in it so that I
can ask more questions about what it could possibly mean.  Also, can't
believe how adult Harry looks in it.  <sigh> so much like his father!
Others have already commented on the fact that it is not Ron holding the
sword but did anyone notice the different robes? Yes it's certainly a
treasure but isn't there a disassembled suit of armor in there (helmet to
the right of Harry, torso part to the left)?  What could this mean?

 

Happy that we've got more to speculate on now!

Stacey (who apologizes profusely for posing more questions than providing
answers .just in a Socratic mood perhaps)
