I was wrong. Legolas' exclusive items are:

And:

Interesting choices. I wonder how the exclusive on the Lothlorien cloak will affect the Hobbits' having theirs.

12 minutes and the exclusive was mine! I am glad to have this one!

3 minutes total including getting the email, 10:03am. I am really glad I got this, Legolas was one of my favorites (which kinda sucks since all these girls went gaga over Orlando Bloom, even my mother :p). I can't believe you can still preorder the exclusive at this point, there are 1750 of 'em yet it's open to the public and STILL available - none of the priority preorders for Star Wars made it out to the public. I'm glad Legolas is $10 less than Aragorn, that figure's $65 pricetag felt pretty steep even though it does look really good and has a ton of accessories.

Well...I was lucky enough to order mordor orc leiutenant, eowyn in dress, wraith with firey sword, and legolas from a toy company in New Zealand. I tried to order more after I received mine for forum members, but they were sold out. :( The Toy Fair news is that Toy Biz has stopped all LOTR figure production. :( I feel for those who missed out on the final four.

I think Toy Biz is making a huge mistake, losing the Marvel license meant they needed a flagship line, LOTR could have been it, now without it I suspect they're going to disappear in a few months.

I missed out on them, but I'm only sorry to have missed on the Mordor Orc Lieutenant. I could have paid an arm and a leg for him, but I just won't do that. I ordered him from Toynk.com for $14.99. They say they're due to get a shipment, but I'm kind of skeptical. But no harm in finding out.

I've passed on the Sideshow LOTR figures, though after looking at my 12" Toybiz Gimli yesterday, I have to say he was pretty darn great looking. The others were okay.

My local TRU put out a LOTR figure set, basically three carded figures attached to a plain cardboard sheet with the ToyBiz logo on the back. Nothing too exciting in the figure selection, I saw mainly King Aragorn, Council Legolas, and Strider.

I was about to say "same here" when I remembered that it's the same TRU. :p Monrovia also had a few of those though.
