Didn't know these existed--only stumbled upon them through my "booktube surfing". These are different from the Jim Kay illustrated editions. Look amazing! Am very tempted.
(also tempted by the 75th anniversary edition of The Hobbit, with illustrations by Tolkien himself. It's like 40 quid though, and given that I am not even much of a Tolkien fan, seems a bit much, when I already have the version with Alan Lee's illustrations. Will probably buy Emily Wilson's translation of The Iliad first.)

They're beautiful, as is The Wizarding Almanac which came out in the week.

They are quite flimsy so more for display than regular reading

It'll be a cold day in hell before I buy a pop-up novel for myself. Good grief.
