Anyways, back on topic, I think I'm going to ask for one of those light-up swords for my birthday. Toy versions of Sting sound too much fun to pass up.

No new additions to my collection lately, but I'm still debating with myself on the Shards of Narsil. It's currently back in stock, but I'm a bit short of funds at the moment. Hopefully, it will still be available after payday...

No, haven't gotten him -- the photo yet... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] One day soon, I'm thinking. Hopefully by the end of the month. I know what you mean about being short on funds...I'll be off work for the summer, soon, so I'm steering clear of EBAY....

Collection update:
Just found "Frodo & Sam in the elven boat" action figures as well as "Gimli and Uruk-Hai warrier" today. Had to buy 2 of the "Frodo & Sam", so that I could play with one of them. I'm so excited. I decided not to get the Shards of Narsil at this time. I just found out that Legolas' white knives w/sheaths, Aragorn's dagger that he got from Celeborn and the scabbard for his Ranger sword are supposed to be released before the end of this year, so I'm going to save my money for those. (Maybe it's time to look for that second job... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] )

I have...
-FOTR DVD -FOTR Extended DVD (not with the Argonath bookends) -The Hobbit (cover art by Alan Lee) -FOTR (cover art is pic of Rivendell like in movie by Alan Lee) -The Silmarillion (cover art by Michael Dringenburg) -FOTR game for Playstation 2 (which is kinda moronic, and you can barely tell any of the hobbits except Pippin apart) -TTT game for Gameboy Advance (it's fun for everyone, and you can be EOWYN! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] ) -TTT game for Playstation 2 (where the only good character to be is Aragorn) -The ROTK teaser poster with Aragorn as my PC background (with those stalker eyes, as my brother calls it... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] ) -The One Ring bookmark with One Ring (my old ring fell down the toilet... don't ask... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] ) -FOTR soundtrack -TTT soundtrack -Merry and Pippin action figures with Elven cloaks and SWORD-SWINGING ACTION! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] -Grishnakh action figure with SWORD-SWINGING ACTION! Yeah, as if all action figures don't have SWORD-SWINGING ACTION! printed across the box... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Seriously, if you want action figures, go to KB TOYS!!! I went there to get mine, and they have a lot of them (like Theoden and Frodo and Aragorn). Where I went they were only $8.99 each! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] That's pretty cheap... But they didn't have some of them that you guys mentioned, like the Frodo + Sam boat one (did they have SWORD-SWINGING ACTION!, me wonders...) [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

My husband just got Boromir and Lurtz, boxed together with bow, sword, shield and horn, on sale for $9.99. He really likes Boromir! I like my complete circle of Burger King figures, connected to the one ring, that I got at a garage sale for $2.00. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] All the figures either light up and/or speak. I put it on a lazy susan. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

Alatariel, the Boromir/Lurtz is in the green FoTR box. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] (I hate the "Warning choking hazard" plastered on the front! [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] It's so annoying! )
I thought he said he got it at Sears, and the sales clerk took him to the backroom, showing him some figures that were lurking back there, not on the shelves anymore. Anyway, he was excited, cause he thought Boromir was hard to find (I never looked, I'm not real keen on those plastic figures! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ) and that Boromir was going for $40 on the internet. I'm glad he's happy! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I still like my beautiful snowglobe best! [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img] Whoops! Looks like Kay Bee toys...not Sears!

By the way, I got a sliver chain to place my "one ring" on. (Now all I need is a grey cloak of Lorien, hairy feet, and a really good hobbit wig....)

Samwise: Hmmm...that's a tough call. However, he looks a little older than Rudy but not as old as Sam. And you're right, he does look handsome in black and white. I'm envious!!

Update: Just got Hadhafang (Elrond's & Arwen's sword) delivered today. It is really beautiful. Bigger than Sting; smaller than Narsil; with lots of engraving. Incredible workmanship!

They currently have Sting in stock for $116 plus s&h.

Haunting pays! I found 'Boromir and Lurtz' and 'Merry and Pippin with the Moria Orc' at one of the local retail KB's. Fortunately, they had two of each in stock...one to collect, one to play with/display. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] I found 'Sam in Mordor' with rope climbing action at Elf Mart last week, but they only had one..dang it! Can't play with him yet. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Samwise: Just added a fabulous Sean pic to my screensaver collection. Don't know if you've seen it or not, but you might want to check it out here. Really, really nice!!

I just got back from Comic-Con down in San Diego. Where I got many things to add to my collection.
I first got a whole bunch of free things like pens, pictures, postcards, glowing rings, lanyards, and pins from the New Line booth. My favorite personally being my FOTR pin (but right now I just found out about a metal keyring that they gave out on the most busiest day, that I kind of wish I would have gotten). I also got one of those applause glowing rings, it is very cool. The ROTK teaser poster which was at a discounted price at the New Line booth. A hardback, illustrated edition of The Hobbit that I got by asking a question at a TheOneRing.net panel. And my biggest purchase...My very own Sting! which I got for 50% off in the last five minutes of the convention [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I additionally got a beautiful print of the one ring from a fantasy artist that I heard speak at the convention. It is so beautiful, the original was done in oils so it is very bright and colorful. I feel so lost right now on the site! So much has gone on since I left. Oh and just to add... I can't believe I forgot to list these... I also got the signatures of Sean Astin, Richard Taylor, and Andy Serkis. Additionally I was only 10 feet away from getting the signatures of Mr. Wood and Dom, but I never made it [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] [ August 22, 2003: Message edited by: Gorwingel ]

But, hey, I still payed much more than the price that it was going for on ebay. It is the one from the Noble Collection that retails for $295 (and that is not even including shipping and handling [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] way too much), additionally it didn't come with a scabbard. The price on ebay is amazing, and boy I wish it would have cost that much. My mother would have definitely felt better about it.
You'll eventually get your Sting, just keep on bidding [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

HOLY OVER-PRICED ELVEN BLADES, MR. FRODO !!
Sorry, Gorwingel. NO SCABBARD, even??? Crimeney, at that price they could have included a scabbard at LEAST.... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] I don't have it, yet, but one of these days I'll have an "authentic" Hobbit dress ala Rosie Gamgee (well, if she would have worn purple....) [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] That will be a really fun part of my collection... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [ July 27, 2003: Message edited by: Samwise ]
