Statue Gimli Maquette

[Mister Ski]

Gimli EX #122 arrived yesterday. The maquette line has really revitalized my love of everything LOTR. Gimli is the best of the series so far, IMO Aragorn and Gandalf the Gray a close second and third with Legolas being my least favorite so far - mainly due to the darker skin color. Just ordered an Arwen since in hand photos of her are looking better than the Sideshow shots. She should arrive next week. Then the long wait for Boromir begins!

The Fellowship (in progress)

Long wait for Boromir indeed. After getting two so quickly waiting for Boromir is gonna be rough.

Gimli has shipped and will be here on wednesday.

After seeing this mentioned I was curious, is the ex orc corpse supposed to be missing one of his fingers?

 

[The Josh]

Yeah, he is.

Your pics really bring out the details of the pieces!

I think this Gimli piece is going to pair really well with some of the SSW orcs - the Orc Warrior, MoS, etc. would all look really good with their heads about to get split open!

Gollum was sneaking around and got hungry. He likes fingers.

So I had my flex WL convert a few days ago. My NRD along with the remaining balance was also charged and was shipped 2 days later. Mistake? What's the point in having a flex waitlist if it still processes in full immediately?

On one hand im happy to.get him quicker but this is my fourth piece now in the last month and im flexing 2 others so it would have been nicer to spread it out.

Are you sure you were on the Flex Pay WL and not just the regular WL??

 

[The Josh]

You'll be pleased you were charged all at once waiting for this would have sucked.

 

[Radagaster]

I was also FLEX'ing and they sent me an email if I wanted to accelerate the payment so I could receive it sooner. There was no hesitation on my part.

mine was a WL FlexPay as well, I was going to call yesterday to have them charge the whole thing, but I got the shipping notice before I could. Confused me, but I am glad he's on his way.

I see on another board that people are saying that theres no more flex option for WL.

 

[The Josh]

I did not know that. Interesting.

[furystorm]

Um, I hate to mention it, but your orc is dead.

Thank ya! Yeah, this one is a damn impressive statue.

Um, I hate to mention it, but your orc is dead.

I know. I thought I ordered the exclusive exclusive version with the live orc.

Looking forward to it mate.

[The Josh]

Thank ya
