Statue New LOTR Maquette Line Announced!

[The Josh]

We have to stop doing this Josh. Okay, that's it...

I'm off to work!

Great minds man. Great minds.

Have fun at work.

At least I think people can tell the two of us love this line!

That they can. That they can.

So, I placed my order today for my very first LOTR statue, the Exclusive Gandalf the Grey Maquette! I'm so excited to see him in person, and hopefully I love him enough to go on to get Aragorn, Legolas, etc.

 

[The Josh]

Congrats!! I think you'll love it.

 

[NorthernLadMSP]

I think so! I'm excited to get him. Are these statues 1/6 or 1/5 scale?

 

[The Josh]

I believe they're 1:6th but the product page Arwen said 1:5th.

Arwen said that? Did she say it in the movie or the book? : P

 

[NorthernLadMSP]

Congrats!! I think you'll love it.

Gandalf was shipped out today and will be here on Monday!!!

 

[The Josh]

Sweet!! Make sure you let us know what you think.

Sweet!! Make sure you let us know what you think.

I will! I'll post pics too, even though there's been a ton of them posted already!

My next purchase is the Extended Edition Blu Ray.

I got the regular (theatrical) versions on Blu Ray last year, but I just have to have the Extended Editions.

Now to find a good deal. I'm seeing B&N has it for $71.99, Amazon for $76 and Overstock for $74. Anyone know of anywhere else that has a better price?

 

[The Josh]

I've got every version DVD or Blu they've done. Its kind of dumb I suppose but this is the best series of movies I've ever seen so I don't mind at all.

Amazon is where I got mine when they came out but I've got prime (free shipping).

 

[NorthernLadMSP]

I had the theatrical DVDs but gave them to my friend when I got the Blu Ray set. I also still have the EE on DVD, but will probably do away with those when I get the Blu Ray.

What is Prime?

 

[The Josh]

For $80 you get free 2 day shipping and release date delivery. I've had it for a while now. Its totally worth it.

 

[furystorm]

$80 per year, or a one time fee?

I'm guessing per year...

 

[The Josh]

$80 per year. Still worth it though but I tend to order a lot through amazon.

 

[gagaliya]

now you also get tons of tv shows / older movies free similar to netflix if you sign up for prime.

it's awesome, you can order whatever you want without worrying out shipping and it gets send using 2day shipping only. And if you need something NOW it's only $4 per item to send next day air which usually cost $20+

That sounds like a pretty good deal. I just started ordering through Amazon not too long ago, but I have ordered 3 things in the last month, so it may be worth it.

 

[The Josh]

If you order several things a year from them it will be.

Don't most orders over 25 dollars ship for free anyway? Are there classes of items (that I clearly do not buy) that don't qualify for super saver shipping?
