Re: Ot: Lotr lego coming Thanks for posting the Target link. They listed that the Lego Sets are not available in store. I would imagine this only relates to them not being released yet, but I didn't want to deal with TRU pricing, and the gas spent driving around trying to find these. One of...

That is really cool! Thanks for posting the picture, as that is a great pose and great look for Strider. Very evocative of the book too, as that scene from the Prancing Pony is absolutely riveting the first time through. You might not even know if he is one of the nine riders chasing Frodo at...

:goodpost: :goodpost: I have to agree that I would love to have news every day, but my wallet is glad to have it spaced out, and it has afforded me time to hit the reset button on some things in my life. I would love news sooner, but I would guess that we get a pre-order shortly after the...

I think that we will certainly get the nine, and likely many more beyond that. If we get Sam and Frodo and Merry and Pippin as the next two announced statues, I would be in heaven! I still think this line will include a wide variety of characters beyond the fellowship, and I think that Arwen...

Josh, I don't think this line is at all doomed either, and I still think we are on track for one maquette per quarter. I would love that to be the consistent pace for the shipping of items. That being said, as we look ahead, we may see delays in that pace if we don't get another preorder...

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF Thanks Bill! That does look like Boromir had it pretty much nailed. I hope the price is a little bit less than the 2 X PF price formula, as the rider is mostly cloth, and not a lot of detailed cloth... I am hoping for less than $600, but I think that even the old...

I think we have a lot on the horizon too, but I would hope that Sideshow creates a little bit of a smaller "sine wave" on their news and announcements. It seems like they tend to save up for the big shows or events, but then we have bigger lulls throughout the year. A lot of us here only...

I am hoping that by the time someone wins this mystery pre-order, it won't be a mystery for much longer! Keeping my fingers crossed, but good luck to the other collectors here too!:hi5: FrodoEyes, a little news or excitement doled out over time can keep us happy, but the previous lack of news...

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF These sorts of photo manipulations and attention to detail are the reason I love this board! Amazing, and this is going to be a monster!!

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF Seeing this on my phone, amazing! I still hope the price is reasonable, as it isn't too much larger than some other premium formats judging on scale! Looks great, and thanks for the picture! Get out of the way, Tom!

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF If the Ringwraith on Steed is going to stay in the Premium Format line, there is no reason for the Cave Troll move into the Legendary Scale Line either. If he had a pose similar to the Snow Troll statue, he would not be too big to be in the Premium Format Range...

I was only going to get one signature on the Sting plaque, but it is a little smaller, so it would be limited as to who else could sign on it. I figured the Fellowship posted could be a good starting point to collect other signatures should other people start doing the convention circuit too...

So I got a chance to go to C2E2 in Chicago today, and met Sean Astin. His fees for autographs were a little steep ($40 per item) so I only got two of the many items I brought signed. He signed my plaque for the United Cutlery Sting sword and the my Fellowship of the Ring Theatrical poster, and...

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF I thought the armored variations on the trolls throughout the Return of the King were pretty cool, but I prefer the Cave Troll from the Fellowship as he was the most fleshed out character of the trolls. I even felt bad for him when he died at the hands of Legolas!

LOTR news was pretty scant last year, maybe there will be a big push with the Hobbit on the way!
