Here's more.
On the U.S. Cover, it looks like Harry & Voldemort are inside the veil? Somewhere by the veil? In the Ministry of Magic? That's what it looks like to me.
On the U.K. Children's cover, the expressions on the faces of Ron & Hermione are pretty scary. They look terrified while Harry looks determined.
Why is Ron holding Gryffindor's sword? Are they inside Gringott's? It looks that way based on all the gold & stuff.
On the U.S. cover, Harry & Voldemort aren't facing each other. They are facing something (someone?) else. Interesting...Maybe Sirius makes an appearance? Or all Voldemorts victims?
I WANT THIS BOOK NOW!!!
I must reread OOTP on the chapter that describes the room where the veil is at.

It looks to me like they're both reaching for something in the air. I don't even think it's wandless magic.
The question on the UK one is, are they being sucked in, or spat out of the archway?
Also, I just read a very convincing opinion that McGonnegal (I can't spell her name) is Voldemort's spy. DAMN convincing. If anyone here would like I'll post the link (LJ). It makes me want to reread the books. I've always said Snape is not a bad guy, but I'd never thought Minerva would be the double agent...

I agree. I think they're reaching for the final horcrux (whichever one it is). It's spinning,falling to the ground, certainly neither HP nor V want the other to get it, so they're both reaching. I should add though, that I only saw the unveiling on the Today show this morning - I haven't gone to the link to study any of them.
Drolefille, I'd definitely be interested in reading the Minerva Theory.

McGonagall a Spy???
I don't buy the theory at all but it is amusing.

The thing is I totally don't picture her as a spy but....
It honestly wouldn't surprise me if JK threw this twist into book 7. I mean I never expected Snape to kill Dumbledore, that took me by surprise (even though it was all over the net days prior to the book coming out).

She actually said that some reader's theories are better than her own ideas so it wouldn't surprise me that this is one of them.

Okay, I have to read that because I absolutely don't believe it.

Isn't it the house elf holding the sword? It sort of looks like he might be trying to hit Harry with it!

Yes. He has one hand on the sword and the other on Harry's shoulder.

You're right. Now this gets even more interesting. I'm assuming it's Dobby b/c he's the only house elf I can picture helping Harry. Winky & Kreacher wouldn't help him IMO.

Thanks for posting that link. And in the comments from that one is another essay I believe.
I totally can't see her as a spy either, but it's crazy enough that it might just be true. How perfect is it that Snape is good and Minerva is bad? At the same time, I don't think Dumbledore would have been taken in by someone like that. That's been my defense of Snape all along. Dumbledore trusts him so he must be good!

If that essay turns out to be right, I am going to be really pissed that I read it!
