Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire movie props on display...

Even though the big screen adventures of Harry Potter are over for now, it's still cool to see some of the magical props that brought the world of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to life on display.

This selection of cool props from The Goblet of Fire and The Chamber of Secrets were photographed as part of a Harry Potter movie exhibit at the London Film Museum on May 15, 2012.

In the fourth installment in the Harry Potter saga, the titular wizard competes in the Triwizard Tournament for the ornate Triwizard Cup trophy.

In the fantasy movie, the Cup is turned into a Portkey which magically transports Harry and fellow Triwizard contestant 'Cedric Diggory' to a graveyard ambush laid by Lord Voldemort.

As a fan, it's great to see the detail of this dragon-festooned prop up close.

The golden egg was the prize of the first task in the Triwizard Tournament, which could be obtained by retrieving it from the nest of dragon eggs. I love the artwork detail on the side of this egg prop which you don't really see in the film.

Also on display with these props from the fourth film were items featured in second movie, including Ron Weasley's broken wand and the letter he receives from his mum, 'Mrs. Weasley', which turns into magical 'Howler' message (through the wonder of CGI special effects).
