The Harry Potter Thestral Statue from Gentle Giant stands 12 inches tall, 14 inches wide and 10 inches deep. Harry is removable allowing the Thestral to stand by itself. Thestrals, a type of winged horse, are black and skeletal in appearance, with protruding bones, leathery wings, blank white eyes and a dragonish face. Visible only to those who have seen death, Harry, Neville, Luna and Theodore Nott are known to be able to see them. Thestrals fly extremely fast, have an unerring sense of direction, and understand human speech. All that is required is for the rider to tell them where to go, and they will fly there at an exceptional pace.
