Now i'm not going to list all the stuff i have because i will annoy ad and aurora will get jealous that i have more stuff

so this thread is for what merchandise you would like and how much it cost's.

I was watching QVC (shopping channel) last night after my gran, yes my gran! lol phoned me and told me there was a 2 hour program selling LoTR stuff and OH...MY...GAWD, the things they were selling i swear if i had a credit card i'd run myself into debt...Elendil's Helm, signed cards, limited edition plates, weapons, laser-etched glass blocks, lithograph's, trading cards. I was dying lol.

dude...I can't believe you created this thread

It would be more gentlemen like to just pull em out and compare

well someone has to make new threads ffs the forum is dead!

Well, yesterday I bought Aurora the Witch King with Mace, the King of the Dead, and a Twilight Nazgul action figures.

We also bought the Box set for the LOTR widescreen.






























oh, and we also got two free magnets ! So there !!!

So There?


what?

Ummm, nothing !

Do you have the "One Ring" ?

nope i think it's pretty tacky


im gonna buy Barahir's ring

Tacky ???

Why do you say that ?

i've got replica...but i wanna buy the real ones advertised on the insert of the DVD i got yesterday...can't afford the gold ones so i'll prob get the silver with the gold plating...

but i really want is elendil's helm and if they ever make it...aragorn's crown...

yea elendil's helm does look the shit, pretty expensive though....and i dunno i just do ad lol

Has anyone heard about them making a life sized blow up doll of Eowyn ???




Just kiddin

....okay now that would be just a liiiiiiiiiiiiiiittle...

extreme

Yeah, you are right...that would be a little extreme

Maybe they should just stick with Arwen

I concur...Arwen is yucky !

no comments...

not yucky but not a comparisson

Anywho...

I would love to find a Anduril moderately priced....I have seen a few of them...but they are much too rich for my blood

yeah if you lived in spain i bet it would be cheaper

Arwen? Eowyn? Merchandise?!?



"and how much they cost"?



Fascinating :P


I want, basically, everything as long as it has to do with LoTR and doesn't include something connected to Legolas... and isn't tasteless
What I like best? - the weapons. And the maps.

Some of the things I want to have should already be on their way to me... broken Narsil miniature in the hands of the sad statue in Rivendell... and six maps on parchment... and a huge Mordor-Poster (*curses slow German mail*) ~ problem: I have no idea how I can pay them because I don't really have any money at the moment


Best things are still books, though...
merchandise is often so stupid and too commercialized... of course it's all about commerce, but you can really overdo everything

whoa, let me be the 4th person to post...

I aint into collecting much merchandise quite yet.

I have a witchking,gandalf,Boromir shot glasses which havnt been used yet.

A Lord of the rings:TT keyring,

posters of every lord of the rings dvd cover, ie the return of the king dvd cover as a poster

actually exa for me it's really about how much it will be worth in 20+ years

omg...they are pricey...i did try out Anduril...things is pretty heavy...the script on the blade is laser etched which is pretty cool...cost three bills and a quarter last i looked...

hurts...right here*points to heart*

I would like to find a good map...something that Aurora and I could frame and hang up in our new dwelling.

Something that looks aged...

well when i start working im gonna spend A LOT on the weapons.

yeah the map thing would be awesome...esp on parchment paper...but would you get one in elvish script or in english??? i'd get the elvish one just for the sake of reality...

btw...i must've spent nearly 20 mins staring at elendils helm...sh*ts beautifully crafted...right down to the small pits to show its been well worn...

they had an Arwen sword, but it looked smaller than the one's elves had in the prologue to fotr...hmm

ooooooooooh i fooking love arwen's sword

I already have three huge maps in my room one that looks rather old and two by John Howe that are just... beautiful with drawings of different scenes round it (Silmarillion for Beleriand and LoTR for NW-ME)

Maps are one of the things I like most about LoTR ... sad that you can't decorate your room with, uhm, languages or something like that ok you theoretically could *thinks about it*

did you like that map i posted?

lol only




edit - is that the whole thing or just the blade?

ot


Yes I did actually I had been looking for this map for ages

Actually it contains names that I havent seen mentioned anywhere before (except on this map)... on none of Tolkien's maps... dunno where the names are from *wonders*

as we in the states are not yet on the metric system...all that was greek to me...

but arwen's sword was about a little over 2 ft in total length...now i know she's a female elf, but i doubt they'd make a sword just because of that...i wish they had one of those elven sword's on display...

1.50m are 5 feet... 1.20m 4 feet

Arwen's sword Hadhafang (actually it belonged to her great-grandmother Idril, princess of Gondolin) was a lil more than 3 feet

https://elbenwaldshop.de/produkte/E51012.jpg

actually it didn't it's not a real sword

???confused1

@exa...that's the sword i saw on display...so maybe it was made according to Tolkien's spec...do you think???

and i was off on the size...since it was behind glass...

Actually it did

It's a sc. fictional sword belonging to sc. fictional persons - so it DOES belong to them

Though I don't think Hadhafang is Tolkien's fiction

... the name is the Sindarin form of Quenya "Sangahyando", the name of the (?great-)grandson of Castamir who (unjustly) was king of Gondor for 10 years



edit
@Fea

no idea

that's what i meant

LOL


btw
NobleCollection's version of Hadhafang -

https://ssl.kundenserver.de/dynamixshop.de/produkte/NN2729.jpg

well...saruman and gandalf's staff are actual size as in the movie...made of hardwood polished and smooth...Saruman's has the crystal centered on the top...and Gandalf's is white...it too is not light either...

i really wish i won the lottery lol i wan't all the weapons and items

Saruman candle
https://ssl.kundenserver.de/dynamixshop.de/produkte/NN7165.jpg

Gandalf's staff looks strange

http://dynamixshop.de/sess/utn;jsessionid=1540b4df4d29341/produkte/NN0409_b.jpg

Eowyn's necklace

http://dynamixshop.de/sess/utn;jsessionid=1540b4df4d29341/produkte/NN0209_b.jpg

is that one from the movies??? don't remember it looking like that...*puts DVD on*

No lol

pure merchandise...

ahh! sneaky....bad one at that too...

and heres me thinking it was the top of Orthanc made into a candle holder

That's exactly what it is



Wiki-candle-holder looks better though

post the wiki one i can't remember it

I used to have the one ring

lost it though

sauron

yey I also have four One Rings my precioussesssss


only found the normal nazgul one
https://elbenwaldshop.de/produkte/E84061.jpg

http://www.noblecollection.com/images/large/NN9687L.jpg

i want that but not that one, i want the barahir's ring that is in the film

^^for on those cold nights, when the ring bearer was away on the horizon, hope seemed lost for the nazgul, cold and lonely, they would huddle round a fire
and sing


OR

that time when the eye of sauron fell, and the wraith king gathered round to see if it was ok

Best of all the rings (Barahirs Ring I mean)... and the one with the longest and most interesting history probably

By the end of the Third Age it must have been one of the oldest crafted things that existed...

why does it always remind my of slytherin green, silver, serpents


@Sauron

palantir i bet they are older lol


oldest ring though yea probs

ah that candle looks great.

I would like to have the ring of Narya

Discos - FIRE!

That is exactly the reason why I said "one of the oldest"

I also love the Nazgul rings, especially Wiki's... they look a lot better than the elven rings

any pics of wiki's ring???

Nazgul rings -

https://ssl.kundenserver.de/dynamixshop.de/produkte/NN9875.jpg

https://ssl.kundenserver.de/dynamixshop.de/produkte/NN9358.jpg

...awesome!!!

*looks into wallet...sees spider webs*

lol *spider webs all round*

the second Nazgul ring is definetly a looker for me!

The second one is Wiki's

yeah...but everytime i move it seems to want to follow...the first one would be for me...

Thats exactly what I said to the shop manager, but did they believe me...

Discos - ....noooo!

...the ring is evil...just be glad it didn't blink...

lol, you laugh at me too much Feanor,

I can just see myself in the future being a comedian and Feanor being a very wealthy man,

Discos - he is my only audience!

I bought the 3 Lord of the Rings books today + got the Hobbit for free

okay that was funny...i actually had a visual...

okay, I have...
jewlery:
the ring of Barahir
swords (UC):
Narsil
Ringwraith Sword
hadhafang
action figures:
Sauron
Saruman
other crap:
some pin collection.

and more to come...

aww man...I need one of those rings...the Wiki one !

*goes to pout in corner for I have spider webs as well*

yea the elven rings look like they belong to a pimp!







yay some compition at last

yes "competition" indeed

anyways, I have no jewelery but would very much like some

the Ring of Barahir is the best...

http://mystic-caravan.com/elvish/nn9687l.jpg

with a pretty cool history...
A gift to Barahir and his descendants by Finrod Felagund, in reward for the saving of his life in the Dagor Bragollach. The Ring was used as a token by Barahir's son Beren Erchamion when he sought Finrod's aid in the Quest of the Silmaril, and passed down by his descendants for thousands of years. It was still an heirloom of the House of Isildur in the Third Age.

nice ring, I prefer the second nazgul ring....wikky's ring

not that i am a die-hard wikky fan but just the shape of it and style is so great

Discos - it looks so "me"

Hmmm yep it's also pretty old, was crafted in Valinor... was also pretty difficult for Beren to get it back after his father's death because the orcs had cut off the hand on which Barahir had the ring as a proof that they had killed Barahir and Beren didn't have any help to re-steal it...
the Last King of Arnor/Arthedain also used it to pay the Lossoth, the Snow-people of Forodwaith, who had cared for him after the downfall of his realm

I was going to buy that one but i looked and it's not the same one from the movies.

i like all hree of them on this page ...

It is,
at least the Noble-Collection-Version,

Except for the fact that Aragorn's ring is always a lil dirty and hence looks different

But it's the same shape.

it's not exa i checked

obviously this one is clenner it has been in any battles.... yet

But nearly


here's the film version


The one you can buy is imo a lot more beautiful and finer work

The drawing of it looks a little different though

i've paused many times and zoomed in, it looks exactlt like the ring in the pic i posted and the one i wear...

the second lat pic above seems a little thin and wiry. but it could be the angle... where's that pic from Cyn?

is it in the movie or was it just some guy in a library looking it up

LOL
No, no, that's in the movie... TT EE as far as I remember...
It's Saruman reading about Aragorn / Barahir's ring

The text underneath says

The Ring of Barahir and Felagund
The ring was like to twin serpents whose
eyes were emeralds, and their heads met beneath
a crown of golden flowers, that
the one upheld and the other devoured. That was
the badge of Finarfin and his house.


I guess this pic is a lil bigger:

but where did this come from?

http://www.killermovies.com/forums/attachment.php?s=&postid=1697372

No idea,

That's the problem.

It's the original film Ring, but it isn't from the film; it was among the special photos of some of the Things in the film, like the swords and armoury.
Maybe they had it in an exhibition or something?
But dun remember

cool rings...but i still like wiki's...yeah!!!

did you know they also sell a lotr mouse and mousepad???

there's sauron's ring in gel at the back of the mouse...only a true fanatic would get it...prob me

if fans of Star Trek are called trekkies...what are fans of lotr called???
lordies??

must of been an early model... cause my one exactly matches the ROTK poster one...

the one from the noble collection is a little diff but as exa says it looks better

er...you've got aragorn's ring????

*secretly flies down under to stalk bar...then to NZ to PJ's warehouse*

the one with aragorn and the hilt of anduril?

if so then no it doesn't lol

ah yes when saruman says something along the lines "so gandalf thinks he has stumbled upon the man he thinks will take the throne of Gondor back again"

True, it seems to look a lil different

movie one has no gold, noble collection one does

Movie one does have gold,

But obviously not polished well enough to make it visible

it doesn't i swear

that comparison pic is a bit small... i guess i'll have to get some screen caps going to sort this out...

but the pic in the book saruman is holding, looks excactly like it...

this has become quite an obsive little thread

i just pause the fellow ship when aragorn lets frodo go and it is different but not by much
