Asmus Toys: Witch-king figure

[SurlyJ]

I want a Beserker or some other Uruk Hai.

But if they keep going with the Battle of Minis Tirith that's cool too, since Witch King and Gothmog are the two big players there. Wonder if they'll do something weird and go with the King of the Dead.

They said that they would be going with some unusual characters that they figure wouldn't see a whole lot so you never know.

I like that. While I do want the normal roster since I have no 1/6 LOTR collection and don't think the SSC versions look good,I'm happy to see some more obscure characters. Maybe we'll get Gorbag or Grishnákh.

I wonder if they are ballsy enough to do a 1/6 Shelob lol.

Another obscure one that would be awesome is the Mouth of Sauron.

I highly doubt they will do Shelob but check out some Halloween stores. They usually have some pretty nice spiders. They will probably be a little underscale but would still look pretty big next to a hobbit.

Yeah I'm not even sure I would buy a Shelob. I just think it would be cool for someone to tackle it, make it a set with Frodo.

YES!! Mine just shipped from AE. He should arrive on the 1st.

Gimil will be intresting. He has a lot of armor/chainmail so if the do real metal for most of it he will be very heavy.

I could see Saruman and Gandalf the White coming soon. The face sculpts have the beards so they don't seem as daunting as some of the others (Merry, Pippin, Eowyn etc.) and the clothes are robes so the weight won't be an issue like it is with this one.

I am also looking forward to Theoden, Eowyn and Eomer. Hopefully they make the final cut.

Theoden is right at the top for me. Thinking short term, as most lines die so quick, I want Theoden, Gimili and Saruman the most... and like you said, the beards should help .

So you ordered through AE, Doug??? Sweet!!! I did too!! This will be my first new release in quite some time!

Shipping notice from AE.

 

[marker2037]

Same here. I'm in LOTR collectible overdose heaven right now

 

[MidnightClad]

Thought I cancled this guy do to not having enough money for him forgot I paid in full months ago LOL. So I got a huge surprise today that he had shipped from AE glad I forgot makes getting the notice so much better

 

[The Chev]

I wouldn't mind Frodo and Sam in orc armor.

That would be so awesome and about the only real way that I would want hobbits in my collection.

Someone mentioned the Mouth of Sauron. That would be a really cool figure.

Yeah, I forgot about him. That would be really cool.

Yup. I normally order from bbts but I gambled on AE getting it first and they did. I think its only my second or third time ever ordering from them.

As far as lines dying quickly. That's my biggest fear with this line. There are so many figures I want that there is probably no way I will get them all so I am trying to sit back and enjoy the ones that do make it out.

Flosi!, you're going to enjoy the Witch-King! I got mine a week ago.


How's AE in customer service and package handling? I have a dx13 ordered through them.

 

[Der Bombo]

I want that sooooooo much ....

As long as the body issue is fixed first because he would be another top heavy figure. Although I don't know how I'd feel about getting him without his horse.

Outstanding, Chev. I buy from them because they used to have a 10% discount compared to SS prices, no CA sales tax and they ship everything with a second box, so everything comes nice and minty. I'm willing to wait a couple weeks and buy from them over SS. I'm just really not digging the way SSC run their business as of late.

Yeah, MOS without his horse would be kinda meh....

No word yet on mine from AE. Sent an email with a couple of questions.
