00:06Meet 36-year-old Tun Hizami Hashim, Malaysia's number one potterhead.
00:20He's a journalist by profession, but his room reveals another side of him,
00:25a die-hard Harry Potter fan with an incredible collection.
00:31I was 12 years old when I had the UPSR fan,
00:35and the result of my flying colors,
00:38one of my friends gave me one of the presents, which is Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets,
00:44a series of series of Harry Potter.
00:46So, I got it in September and the first movie, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone,
00:53came out during December that year as well.
00:57So, that's how I like it. Oh, I can connect with this book and also the movie.
01:00So, that's how I collect all the books first, and then that's how I fall in love with the movie as well after that.
01:06Slowly but surely, he became wrapped up in the wizarding world.
01:10His favourite book is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
01:14His favourite movie, Prisoner of Azkaban.
01:17And his house, Slytherin.
01:19The bulk of Hisami's collection was put together during his time in the UK,
01:24pursuing his studies.
01:26I went to the United Kingdom.
01:28So, there were a lot of books in the United Kingdom.
01:30So, there were a lot of books in the United Kingdom.
01:32The bulk of Hisami's collection was put together during his time in the UK, pursuing his studies.
01:38The bulk of Hisami's collection was put together during his time in the UK, pursuing his studies.
01:45The bulk of Hisami's collection was put together during his time in the UK, pursuing his studies.
01:51I went to the United Kingdom.
01:53So, there were several Harry Potter replicas that were sold in there.
01:57So, in there, I worked as a waiter to collect the money to buy a collection-collection of replicas.
02:02So, as you can see on the side, I have a pool, a sword, a card, a sakti, all that I collect.
02:08The best thing I bought was not in the UK, but in Europe.
02:12So, you can travel to 22 countries to get these pieces.
02:15So, we can see that this one is in Germany.
02:17So, I will get this one in Germany.
02:19So, I will travel to Germany and buy this.
02:22His most prized possession is the rare and expensive Nimbus 2000, bought in Switzerland.
02:29It's the broomstick Professor McGonagall anonymously arranged for Harry in his first year at Hogwarts,
02:35after he made the Gryffindor Quidditch team.
02:37Hisami's love for the franchise goes beyond collecting.
02:41One of his boldest moves took place in 2011, during his time in the UK.
02:46Okay, in the time of Harry Potter Part 1, number 7 Part 1,
02:50I was able to meet Daniel Radcliffe and J.K. Rowling during the premiere.
02:55So, we have to kill death for a week, actually.
02:59Yes, so me and my friend, we are camping at Trafalgar Square.
03:03So, you're taking turns, you go back and eat and sleep and all.
03:07Yeah, but not just us. There are so many people around the world are there during that time.
03:13So, that's one of my sweet memories.
03:16Among his treasures is a letter personally signed by Radcliffe, replying to a birthday wish.
03:23While Hisami is still collecting today, he focuses more on limited editions.
03:28His latest purchase is a hairy doll from the UK that costs around RM2,000.
03:34And although almost 15 years have passed since the final film, he insists the spirit is still alive.
03:41We are still on the head, you know. We are still waiting for our letters, actually.
03:46We still didn't get our Hogwarts letter, you know.
03:50Walaupun kami, zaman Harry Potter kami, mungkin dah berlalu lah.
03:54Tapi, keep on let the magic live, you know.
03:59Sampaikan kepada generasi muda, the Gen Z, you know.
04:02That's what I do to my nephew.
04:04And also, the Harry Potter series comes out.
04:06So, I'm sure that people are excited for it.
04:08And I'm also excited for it.
04:09But, at the same time, I feel sad as well.
04:12Because, you know, we are going out with Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson.
04:15That's the face of Harry Potter.
04:16And after this, we have a new character.
04:18So, all these machines will be much more valuable, I think.
04:22Mischief managed.
04:25TVR Ragu, FMT.
