Lord of the Rings figures

The bow in the pic is not the one Galadriel Gave him. My guess is Galadriel's bow will be the exclusive accessory. And that would be a good choice. I wonder if he will have his Rohan armor. It doesn't look like it from the pic.

I was wrong. Legolas' exclusive items are:

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 ). 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. Monrovia also had a few of those though.
