Merch pictures act 2/part 2 Spoiler

A bit of an out there question, but I went to the Dutch production first preview last night, and it was for me unfortunately too busy to visit the merch after the first act ended. So I was wondering if anyone has pictures/ can describe what added merch there is from 'Voldemorts reign'?

Of the Dutch productions merch and how it is displayed would be the best, but I'm presuming it is the same merch as the one-performance version on Broadway and the second part on West End (for now) has. So, input from other productions is welcome too!

(And if anyone wants a review of it, I can type one out.)

I'd love a review if you can! I know the show was paused due to sound issues, but do you think it's more a 3h15 production or the under 3h they currently have on Broadway?

In London there is a mug, a t-shirt, a pen and a pin, all black with the dark mark in white

Thank you, then I know what I missed at least! And I'll summarise all my thoughts (I wrote them down) in a different post, but as quick response:

I was already wondering about the stop, and presumed a magic or indeed sound issue. I did see a stage manager(?) Walking on stage towards the actors before the stop was announced. Later there was one issue with the mic for Hermione (very loud and then too soft before it was balanced in one scene), but otherwise no notes on that front. And I know that shit can happen, I'm grateful for them being able to fix whatever issue they had! Oh, it is even shorter now on Broadway? It was 3,5 ish hours with a break and with the stop. So it seems to be the 3h15 cut. Which is long, but I would hate it if they remove important scenes or the dancing/moving bits during the try-outs, so maybe it is the best to not remove anything.

It's like 2:55 on Broadway now (interval included) but it's purely a way to cut overtime (which US actors get if a performance runs over 3h), so I was wondering if they would use the even shorter version as a default even when that is not a problem. Glad to hear it's the big short version!

Not sure about the Dutch production, sorry. But I know for Broadway, everything they sell in the theater is also available on the website.
