Did a search and couldn't find a LOTR thread already.
Does anybody else collect LOTR stuff? I was sorting out my collection the other day and found a massive box of LOTR figures I collected a few years back and had added to more recently. Ranged from the bog standard up to the various Orcs & Uruks and the horse/Beast with rider figures. Also a MIB electronic Sauron with a tiny One ring and 9 extra rings which I think are supposed to represent the ringwraiths rings. Not sure if theyre meant to be with it or if the person I bought it from had gone out their way to collect them as well.
Quite an enjoyable range to collect as well, there's a good range of characters and levels of figure but not that many that it'd be impossible to have an almost full collection fairly easily. There's a couple of half decent sublines, the Armies Of Middle Earth range has some good sets.
A couple of things I've always found with is the prices for them go in cycles, fluctuating wildly between worthless and bordering on overly priced, and there's always a lack of boxed figures. I suppose the last bit helps with the dilemma of whether to open it or not.
One things that's missing is a cave troll so that's probably my next LOTR purchase.
