I don't know what is funnier, the pictures of the Balrog causing rampant destruction to fluffy toys, or the direction of the comments. Either way, congrats to making me snort a laugh at work and get funny looks from co-workers!

I showed my wife the pics of the Balrog eating her MyLittlePony and making sweet, sweet love to her Popple. She was.......unamused. :maul

I wish you had a picture of her face when she saw the Popple pic.
We were amused and that's all that should matter.

Well, she didn't read the posts. I told her that he was just hugging the Popple. I know, I'm a wuss.
But there was no mistaking the pony pic. Her jaw dropped, and she exclaimed, " That is WRONG! You defiled my childhood."
I felt like George Lucas when she said that...

It's listed on the box. Mine was like 2114 out of 2400.

Actually, some folks have gotten boxes with other numbers, in the low hundreds. I'd assume the first 2400 was the main shipment, but that additional figures came over in one or more smaller shipments. The original run size on these was 5k, but I suspect that was too large. 3k is probably more like it, but that's just a guess.

I remember when it first appeared the preorders it was 900 limited (it was really crazy ES) but then they decide to make the ES bigger dont know actually which is the edition size.

I had just assembled my Balrog few days ago and broke the small plastic tabs on one of the wings' joint. The first wing I managed to twist it correctly. The second one somehow ended up with the tabs breaking off.
I realised that when they said flush in the instructions, it's not as if it is totally flush. I can see see a fair amount of gap? Well at least I made it further and I didn't break the tabs off while inserting the joint into the back like my friend did with his 2 wings
This monster is a headache to balance. I put it standing on a table top and went elsewhere for a while only to return a couple of minutes later and saw it on the floor. There were black and orange paint on the floor tiles and also due to the fall, the impact caused the first wing that I had inserted fine, to have the plastic tabs broken.
SO.... I now have 2 wings which is not secured to the body. It may tend to drop out while tilting the figure or will just twist itself downwards upside down due to its weight. I think I'll have to use some glue to secure it permanently. Do you guys know if there are specific types I should use or I can just use Superglue?
I highly suggest never to put this monster on a high open shelf/top. Cos should for some reason, it fell, then it will be very painful experience. It will hurt somebody if he/she were to walk under it when it falls and also not to mention some damage like those that I have got.
And since I believe once you twist the wings in, you aren't supposed to remove it without probably breaking the tabs. There is no use for the box since you will not need to repack this monster into the box anymore. So one good thing is that you have one less big box taking up space at home!

Gorilla Glue works good.
If you are going to put him on a shelf, I recommend coming up with some sort of wood base that you can twisty tie his feet to. Better yet, twisty tie him to the wall behind him.
I've been considering bringing him into work and putting him on a large bookcase above and behind me. Only problem is, I have visions of him falling off and killing me at my desk. Now there's a great image to be plastered across the web - "Captain Toy killed by one of his own!" I can just imagine my co-workers with their camera phones having a good time before dialing 911.

I'm bringing my beast to work with me tomorrow. I have no where to put him at home at the moment so he's going to sit a top a bookshelf and watch me while I work.
