Well with Xmas over, FINALLY and things are calmed down, 4 grandchildren will do that, I opened my Snow Troll and was speechless, the massiveness just blew me away and the detailing, even the dwarf was perfect, this should be a instant grail as it is that good and still up for sale! I had this in my spare room for since Thanksgiving but the holidays and space issue was a huge thing to over come. Gandalf on Shadowfax lost the battle and was put into his box for the first time since I got him, it was either the RWoS or GoS and I have a thing for the bad guys so......My only issue was after a detailed inspection I found a minor "fix" that was done on mine, part of the skin covering his shoulder was glued back on, I guess during inspection. I hate to ship it back but the $$$ paid for it it needs to be perfect, I am sure the person inspecting was like it is a small piece so what, but I am that much of a perfectionist that it will bug me, should I return it, such a hassle and such a HUGE item.......hmmmmmmm

Eagerly waiting to join the Snow Job club! :lol

On a serious note though, if there is a damaged/ repaired piece that causes your eye or mind to be drawn to it each time, then replacement should always be pursued as it will really come to bug you on such a great piece as well as reduce the resale value if you don't replace it now :lecture

Thanks Dave, after much pondering I did write SS a note with pics and now waiting a reply...


On a side note you will LOVE this monster, it is above and beyond the biggest statue I have, it is a beauty and tusk for those who have not got it yet!
 
This should be interesting to see their reaction. How do they know you didn't do the repair on it? Best of luck.

Well from my past dealing with SS I have had ZERO issues with the customer service, so it is like anything it is a matter of trust and I never try repairing these things as I just plain and simple suck at it.....
 
I just don't get it. :dunno Why the hell isn't this thing sold out yet - there's only 500 of them. It's gigantic, awesomely-detailed, and only 50 bucks more than the TWK for crying out loud! :banghead :lol
 
It's not directly from the movie and Middle-earth isn't quite as hit as it was a few years back. It's an awesome statue people are missing out on.
 
Yep, I agree :exactly:...it isn't from the movie and that is hurting the sales big time :(...it is a wonderful piece in its own right though :rock...well worth having IMHO. :monkey3

Yeah, I agree. Luckily for me, the fact that it's not from the movies wasn't a factor. When I look at it, I immediately identify it with Peter Jackson's vision of Middle-Earth.
 
I'm with ya for sure. I think it's something you would see in Middle-earth. Plus I loved the game so I'm glad to have something from it.
 
The game was great with two friends. Lots of little detail that true Tolkien fans would appreciate yet were subtle... like how blades glow blue when enchanted against orcs.

Would love if they made more creative games around middle earth. Happenings in the first and second age would be swell. Playing as Glorfindel and defeating Balrogs, laying siege to Arnor in the third age.... maybe even playing as one of the blue wizards in the east.
 
I'd love to play more games set in Middle-earth dealing with characters from the books or movies.
 
Interesting the newsletter says there is 11 in stock but the product page doesn't show that there's less than 20 in stock. Or is that just for pre-orders?
