I didn't realize GG was doing LOTR till I saw Strider, Gandalf and the Wraith up for preorder late last year. I gave a Yoda bust to my mom for her birthday last year (huge Yoda fan), and I was impressed when I saw it up close. The price wasn't bad either. All three LOTR busts looked too good to pass up, especially at that price, so I preordered all of 'em. Now I'm glad I did! I'm not committed to this line, but I certainly like what I've seen so far. I just preordered Saruman, the Balrog and Elrond too. I'm not interested in exclusives, though. Too many irons in the fire now, anyway. Thanks, by the way, for all the closeups of Frodo and Sam...guess I'll end up getting those guys as well. Cheers!
