NEW 12" SS LOTR IS......LEGOLAS

[BDboystoys]

TOO MANY PREORDERS!!! YOUR GOING TO RUIN ME SIDESHOW! Stop making such cool fugures ALL the time! I mean sheesh! I WILL get this. Although Im not going to have enough room for the fellowship so maybe I have to skip afew characters.

 

[mlarsen]

Looks good so far.
I agree, Bow of the Galadhrim would be a nice exclusive.

 

[Seretur]

And the bow comes with its own quiver, if memory serves.

Hey, two sets of bows and quivers... wouldn't be too bad.

The gifts that the fellowshippers got from Galadriel are a bit to obvious to be exclusives I think. They are also to essential to the characters, therefore I hope SSW will make those items part of the regular versions. I think a nice exclusive for Legolas would be the robe he wore during the Council of Elrond scene, right before the Fellowship was formed. Being a prince, Legolas would actually spend more time dressed in noble garment, than in the "sporty" outfit he wears during most of the trilogy. Either way, I'm looking forward to this 12"!

[Seretur]

That's a great idea, Alice!

How hard is it to take a 12" figure's clothes off and dress them in another outfit, btw? I'm ashamed to admit it, but I kinda never had dolls.

 

[Darklord Dave]

Didn't Leggie wear a poncho and a floppy hat at one point? Those should be the exclusive.

 

[LOTRFan]

I wonder if it is merely coincidence that he is posed exactly like the SSW piece in the preview shot.................

Perhaps this is a subtle statement by Sideshow.

Heh, let me shamefully admit it also... I never had dolls either! Even though I am a huge LOTR and SW fan, it never occurred to me to collect 12" dolls... I picked up this 12" habit because of SSC I belive... And I don't regret it! These 12" figures are just to fantastic to ignore! But changing cloths on them... I plan on keeping all my 12" figures MIB, so, that's a bit of a problem.

The next couple of weeks are going to be VERY expensive....

 

[DarkArtist81]

"There's a fell voice in the air..."

Yeah, Legolas.... that's me screaming...

I'm going to be soo broke this year....

NOOOO!!!!

 

[Mortar Conn]

Green-Leaf looks exquisite. Yeah, I'm betting the next release will be Gimli son of Gloin. Gotta get the Trio back together again.

I doubt its Gimli. Probably Gandalf. They need a new body for Gimli, which is going to take time.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I would have to agree. Maybe Gimli at SDCC -- to showcase their new bodies for Hobbits and Jawas/Ewoks/Ugnaughts, etc.

Gandalf is the most likely suspect next.

 

[Entropy]

Since new bodies will be required, I don't think we'll see hobbits or the dwarf any time soon, end of the year at the earliest is my guess. I bet Gimli will be the last of the Fellowship made as he was really the only dwarf in the films and SS will need to make a whole new body for just him. Perhaps they could alter the hobbit body style somehow rather than produce a new body style for just one character?

Maybe SS will throw us a curve ball with the next one and it'll be Gandalf the White, Galadriel, Arwen or Saruman, but I think Gandalf the Grey, Faramir and Boromir are the most likely canidates.

 

[Bodie The Cursed]

How about a bad guy next?..

 

[Wor-Gar]

How about a bad guy next?..

I'm all for it! I would love to see GOTHMOG at some point (wicked cool)! But I think its obvious they will be doing a Nazgul first in keeping with the Fellowship.

 

[The Dwimmerlaik]

Deception, three good guys and one baddie , i was waiting for the WK, oh well ill pass the exclusive and buy the regular.

Im only waiting for exclusive version Borormir, Mouth of Sauron (cross fingers) and the WK

 

[NSFolsom]

Darn! I hope SS puts of ordering it for another week... Too Many Pre-orders Too Soon!

Great figure though I never would have guessed that he would be the next one... Not so soon anyway.

But I am glad and I will be getting him.

Now... Who's next?

 

[NSFolsom]

Legolas! Woo-hoo! I can't wait... Big surprise there, I know.

Oh, and what's this? [BELOW]
