I can’t say I’m surprised. I’d say I’m actually more suprised we actually got what we got.

Frodo is actually huge. Sam too sure I guess but to me even though he’s probably almost no one’s favorite character, like it or not Frodo is the main character of LOTR. You can’t have a collection without him and he has to be as good as the best figure in your LOTR collection.

To me, other than the fellowship, Gollum, Arwyn and Sauroman are all you’d ever really need to feel complete. Maybe Galadriel…maybe Lurtz. But anything other than that is a deep cut IMO.

So yeah that’s a lot, maybe JND will pick up some of the holes other than the 4 hobbits. These companies all make the same damn characters but if they did I’d actually hope for Arwyn as their statue thing was nice.

Also from what I’ve been able to cobble together over the years Arwyn is really only the weak link. I didn’t think it would be the case but the customs I made of Saruman and Boromir years ago do hold up next to the inart stuff.

The asmus gollum needs work paint tweaks and other mods but it’s still decent.

I personally don’t even feel I need Merry and Pippen,

Of course I want the line to continue and of course I want less stupid jokers but the truth is if this ends here I’m ok with it too.
 
I just think it’s sad that a franchise that has so much love never seems to get the love from companies that fans start to get attached to. Every bloody company in the history of 1:6 scale and above has done the poxy dark knight joker. I’m so sick of seeing so many different iterations of it..we don’t need this many. They know that Lord of the rings was one of the biggest franchises ever, so why not capitalise off of it? If they don’t wanna make the 9 fellowship members fine, but don’t start out giving us characters like the Nazgul when that money producing the figures could be put towards characters that ACTUALLY complete so many of collectors collections-Gimli.
 
Yeah LotR is THE fantasy book/movie.
Almost all other fantasy movies are cheap crap. Except GoT or some gems here and there.
You should think more companies should have tried to get the rights over the years
