| I think they look an awful lot like the basilisk did in CoS. I think the purple might be the hungarian horntail, and i agree with the Chinese dragon thing. |

| They do look a bit like the Basilisk but that's because we only see their heads. Once we see their whole bodies and once they're touched up a bit with computers, etc, they'll look much better. I'm personally excited to see them in action. |

| That green one looks like the basilisk from CoS....
And, yeah, once the final touches have been made it'll look more realistic, just like the basilisk. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Ottery St. Catchpole Third | What November isn't here yet? What do you mean there still filming? OMG...didn't I say this was going to be the greatest movie ever? Because I did. Animatronic not CGI how cool is that? It's bound to lend a greater sense of realism, this is too cool I can't wait... |

Facially, they are ALL different in shape and size. That's easily seen through the small images.
The Basilisk is a part of the same family, so really what does everyone expect? |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Marcella Riddle Graduated | No. Animatronics and puppets, combined with CGI touches to perfect it. That way, it's more realistic and they can see how it would move. Like they did with Buckbeak & the Dementors. |

| Yeah, there will be four. These photo's were sneakily taken on set so we're lucky they got the three.
But these are just for the actors to work off. CGI will be added later. |
