Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

Sorry I don't have any info for you Xena, but I did notice today that UC had the Sword of Bard on their website (out of stock) so it should be available for order shortly. Looking forward to this! It looks really good, too. I'm also looking forward to it. For those who haven't yet seen the UC pic: ...

Re: LOTR TV adaptation

Set in Middle Earth, the television adaptation will explore new storylines preceding J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Fellowship of the Ring. This is crazy. I'd been silently awaiting confirmation. GOT-style previously mentioned makes me think they will be following many different characters in overarching sto...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

I guess they got there sooner than I thought! I just got word today that a certain bowman's sword is finally going forward into the schedule at United too :D Last month was super busy and somehow I missed this... Fantastic news! This will be my first 'new' purchase in years assuming it turns out we...

Hobbit/LOTR book versions for kids?

Hey all, So my 4 year old is really starting to get into Lord of the Rings. He loves FotR (but we have to close our eyes when the Ringwraiths are on screen)... He's even going as Legolas for Halloween! Anyhoo I was asking about Christmas ideas and he said he wanted 'Lord of the Rings books'. Now.......

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

Here is little section of the possible items list from a while back. This is how the unmade weapons/arms rank, most requested to least. But, as I have said in the past, it's very unlikely any real steel bladed swords will be added to the LOTR line. Go back in this thread for the reasons, but essent...

Re: Dragon Hoard

Just chiming in with my thoughts here. I absolutely love this. Makes it much easier to keep track of what is out there. I attempted to put the list for just UC items together to help folks way back when... and this is leaps and bounds above that. I did have a thought though. Does Kit or anyone else ...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

Yes, thanks for the update Kit! Very good to hear from you. Can't wait for more LotR goodness to drool over! Perhaps this has already been asked before, but now that UC had dabbled in Polyresin for the bows/regal swords... what are the odds of getting UC to do something like the Horn of Gondor? That...

Re: LotR Posters

Posters are always hard, but a couple things I always check are size (27x40) and if its double sided. Most original posters are printed with the reverse image on the back side so they don't look washed out in lightboxes at the movie theatre. After that it's up to finding a reputable seller. I have p...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

I only own one environment (the Golden Hall) and have never truly been tempted by any of the others . . . but Minas Tirith is gorgeous. Despite the extremely high price, I think I may purchase it, but at some point way down the road. At least it's an OE. I hear ya. I used to collect the environment...

Re: New Movies

Anyone else see the new Hateful Eight Trailer?

I'm a sucker for anything set in the 'wild west'. Also interested in how the cinematography will look, being shot on the 70mm lenses used in Ben Hur.

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

Phew... Well, let me just say that this thread has been a great read. It took about 4 hours, but I made it through! Thank you all very much for keeping the discussion and updates going for so long, and thanks to Kit for being such a great ambassador! It looks like I popped back in at just the right ...

Re: Hello Old Friends!

In your absence, UC released a second run of Boromir swords. I picked up one and got a good one but they suffered from the fact that some had a crooked pommel attached to the handle. If you've got the cash, try to find an original; but there are new ones available for a good price now. :coolsmile H...

Re: Hello Old Friends!

Very glad to see you, Draven, and happy to hear that you're quite busy with a happy family! :cheers: Yeah it has been a wild ride. Finally getting to the point of being able to have a little free time. Now that I have the collection hung up, I have the 'fever'. It's easy to forget how awesome this ...

Re: Hello Old Friends!

Draven, very nice to see you again, it's been far too long. Hopefully you can pop in a little more often. :thumbs_up Thanks! It has been too long. I definitely plan on hanging around! I missed out on all of the Hobbit swords. Currently in the process of building a new wish list. Also trying to read...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

This is very exciting news! I'm happy to hear that UC is still excited about Middle-Earth in some capacity. I know that I'll be first in line for Bard's Sword! :cheers: That Bard's sword is so very unique and would look amazing. I would definitely be in for one of those. From Kit's list above, Guth...

Hello Old Friends!

Hey all! I hope everyone is doing well. I've been away for just over 3 years. Funny thing, I saw that my last post was May of 2012. Just so happens we had our first kid in June 2012... So I've been busy. Anyhoo. I started collecting in 2003, and had to sell my UC LOTR collection to help pay for a sh...

Re: Mythril Shirt

Wow coming in on this very late in the game (12 pages late from the looks of things!) ... but your work on these is phenomenal as others have stated! Very cool! I'll have to see how financials shape up early next year before I jump in, but in the meantime I just wanted to say congrats on an awesome ...

Re: Holy c**p - UC were considering/making prototypes of these?!?!?

Hey all! Hope all is well, I've been away for a while but always lurking and checking in on new posts. Back to the OP's images... it really does make one sad to see some of the cool stuff we may never see. Heck, I'm not a huge fan of the Sauron stuff, but seeing that Mace with the display stand... I...

Re: Howdy

Welcome and good luck... I was in a very similar boat not too long ago. I was able to keep my collection through college but had to sell it off a few years back to help pay for a wedding ring (pfff... priorities :D ), I noticed in my time away, the passion to collect these NEVER went away like I tho...

Re: Careful with this auction

Sorry if I caused any confusion... I don't know if they are related or not, I just linked the Budk page to show that it was the same picture as a helmet that was clearly NOT from UC. I updated my first post with a little disclaimer. Anyhoo, I was contacted back by the seller and they wanted to make ...

Re: Careful with this auction

lol... I reported it, I wonder if others did too...
It had UC logo in the details and UC 1414 was even in the title originally. I should have taken a screenshot.

I always thought they had legit stuff but I'm definitely steering clear of them now.

Careful with this auction

Hopefully no-one is lured into this auction.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360260591878&ssPageName=ADME%20:X%20:RTQ:US:1123 Someone selling Gondorian Helm for cheap because it's got no box, no cert, and no stand.... They are advertising it as a UC helm, but I emailed ...

Re: Haldir's sword

[quote=""Valkrist""]I'm split on this one (ducks for cover from GW.) :huh: I want Guthwine, but I also love Haldir's sword. I'll be happy to get either at this point instead of more Weathertop daggers or the MC Rusty Meat Cleaver. :P [/quote] Bah! I forgot... i'll have to email t...
