Awesome collection and display!

Here is part of my collection 😎

Final thoughts on this show guys?... for me was a bad one and I feel kind of sad since I really wanted Amazon to do GREAT with this show, I don't understand how come they tried to do this show without having access to most of the LOTR lore 😐

I watched the second episode at the weekend:

Throwing my reply into a spoiler just in case... And that's all I have to say about that.

Mixed response from me. I really enjoyed the first episode. The second, however, was kind of mediocre. Whenever the harfoots are on screen, I kind of just roll my eyes and want the next scene to come by. Arondir and Bronwyn started off as a little boring, but it's picked up. I really wish the show focused on Galadriel a lot more as I enjoy her scenes the most. It's interesting how everyone's perspectives on the show are so different. I've read tons of people saying the elves are boring and the harfoots are their favorite. I'm the opposite lol. Overall, I was impressed with the first episode, but the second episode really didn't do much -- some of it also didn't make sense.

Don't want to be a hater but this is the most beautiful and stunning mediocre show I've seen.

No spoilers, just my first impression. Just watched the first episode, it does have a nice middle earth feel to it, looking forward to watching more! 😊

Official Trailer released:

SDCC Trailer:

Recently added some newly framed art to go with some pieces I shared prior…

I had my reservations early on with some of the CGI and artistic choices, but this is looking better and better to me with each teaser.

Main teaser released:

I'm not sure, but this does not scream $1 Billion dollar budget to me. Game of Thrones was about $10 million per episode, roughly $100 million per season, and it looked SIGNIFICANTLY better than this. Maybe it's just me, but the integration of effects and practical variables just look off to me. As much of a LOTR fanatic I may be, I'm not too excited about this anymore.

New teaser released:

Yeah I have the same. They are made by Sideshow Weta. They are made of polystone. They do have some weight to them. I like them. They could be a bit taller for sure, but they nice. You got to watch out for the fakes. A lot of them out there.

Awesome thanks! I do wish they were taller but might have to grab them regardless just because they're so sweet and seem about the best quality I've seen.

Here's a pic of mine that I have to hand. They feel pretty chunky, not too sure what they're made of though but it feels substantial.

I think I eyed that option. Are they actually fairly heavy? How tall are they? Would love to find a pair that actually sit as tall as the books. So many I find are such shorties which is underwhelming for what they are modeled after lol. If those are the best option though I'm going to have to hunt them down!

I got mine off ebay with a Fellowship Extended DVD collector's edition set.
