On second thought, I'll take ANYTHING that they release at the moment. That's how desperate I am! LOL.
My credit card is loving it though. I'm sure it's not gonna last very long...

Yep I wish this maquette line is 1/5 instead of 1/6. It would make this line even better and easier on the eyes. Why couldn't they make LOTR maquette in the same scale as the upcoming Starwars Maquette?

Well I see perfect scale 1/6 in this drawing Sideshow Maquette line.

For larger-scale pieces we already have the Premium Format line.

Furthermore not all collectors have rooms and palaces, and at 1/6 is easier to be in the new line completist luckily Sideshow thought on this.

So I applaud Sideshow who has opted for 1/6 scale and hope it is always all parts of the line at this scale maquette.

Wow! Still no news on LOTR in this week's newsletter other than newly found sold-out items. I think Sideshow could at least post a few QA's to let us know that the lines still have life left in them and reassure collectors that they have long-term plans for both...

Regrettable lack of news from Sideshow with the lines of LOTR.
But seeing products that come out like this, because not announced anything about LOTR

This is what we have planned for next week, and still nothing from LOTR, it is regrettable that the lack of news of the LotR license by Sideshow.




Weta Luckily if you get new beginning.

I totally agree with Gangrel! What's going on sideshow? They've been several months since you announced the last piece in LOTR license. What are you waiting for?

As you have notice, I'm a little bit impatient - I can't wait to see another pre-order from LORT universe (I need the hobbits). The more I think, the more irritates me. In my opinion they are waiting for the upcoming months to announce a new figure - so, they are trying to put off the new LORT figures to been displayed on the next Comic Con.

But there is something that I don't understand. With all due respect, the last weeks they have realised diferent kind of "stupid" pre-orders. I mean, How many people will pre-order the MGS Rex Figure? Or, do you think that the next Snake eyes pre-order will charm more people than one from LORT universe?

I want pre-orders as bad as anyone. Waiting sucks but it will make the next pre-order so much more awesome. Plus the next po must time so the items arrive next year as we've still got multiple pieces coming this year.
