Asmus - Gandalf the White - Crown Line

100% Agree. Once I got the Nazgûl’s steed in a steady pose I never moved it again until the hurricane this year shook the house enough to topple him over. Thankful the horse was fine the Nazgûl needs to have some of his armor glued back on though. As cool as it would be to have choices I would rather have the horse as sturdy as can be. Plus I would think it would be cheaper that way too.

It would be cool if they did a few other horses (maybe Brego, Arod, Asfoloth, Snowmane, or even Bill). Sculpting them in different poses would be one way to get a little variety. (A non-articulated rearing Brego - permanently attached to a base - would go great with a Black Gates Aragorn, Asmus. ) But it's probably more economically feasible to use the same sculpt and do different paint jobs.

But if I have to choose ... I'll take stability and the seamless look look over articulation any day.

Price ?

Price ?

You can't put a price on the lord of all horses, can you?

I used two flexible rods to securely hold my Nazgul steed in this pose.

I’m glad to have the articulation for this piece just to achieve a more dynamic display but my static Mr Z horse that I gave to Arwen is a way better design.

Neck articulation on an armoured horse like MoS’ is a good shout though. I got his horse looking nice and depressed like he’s tired of his unending existence of carrying around that hideous monstrosity.

I love that last pic of the Mouth of Sauron on his steed. You nailed both the figure and the horse poses perfectly.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I have had my Nazgul on Steed in the same pose for.... a very long time.

Will Shadowfax fit in a Detolf?

A horse would definitely fit in a Detolf, but not with a rider on top. You could have a figure standing next to them, but not mounted.

Great pose. I still have my Mouth of Sauron on Steed in the box, as I don't have the display space for it.

That'd work just fine. But haven't seen pictures, do you happen to have a1/6 horse in a detolf? Or someone else?

 

[Stryker2011]

One-hoof-up is the best you'll get, and then your horse is dangerously unsteady.

Yep. I bought one of those types of horses (I think it was Ujindou…?), and it can’t stand unaided. Utterly worthless.

Unfortunately, I don't have any displayed that way. And most of my horses are currently boxed up and my Detolfs are full. But a horse would definitely fit. You'll probably want to angle them diagonally so it's not so cramped. And you can totally fit a figure next to it. May not be the ideal display, but it's definitely possible.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Obviously a horse with rider mounted with NOT fit in a detolf unless you remove a shelf or install a U-shaped or half-shelf.

 

[noheddardstark]

Clearly we need a new kind of Rohirrim-friendly detolf...

You can always ride a horse upside down

My wife likes it that way.

 

[Chopper Face]

Horsey style!
Neyyy, baby. Very ney.

 

[asgardianboy]

Sure doesn't look like it in that SDCC video...

What video?
