After finalizing my decision to pass on Arwen, and ordering the Ringwraith, I've been feeling like I could stand to just collect the fellowship and a few other characters that catch my attention. I was fully intending to be a completionist in the maquette line, but after finally making that brutal decision to just not buy Arwen because she is in this line, and because that piece is just not hitting on all cylinders like the rest, now I am more free. I do fully intend and look forward to having a complete fellowship however, and I hope SS don't do as they have many times before, and just never get around to the Hobbits. Really, I'm hoping they come up sooner rather than later, and by sooner, I mean a pair of them next!
But the Ringwraith was not to be passed up. And I could see many orc and other baddies in this line complementing the fellowship nicely. That is not to say that if an Eomer or other piece came along that blew me away, as the Boromir piece did, that I would not get them. I just feel more free not to buy every single release now...
