Re: flames-n-knives

I'll back up Thorin here, with similar statements. I haven't purchased from FnK before (though I've recently purchased from them for the first time), and I have to say they are thus far a very reputable store. Coming off of a bad e xp erience with another site (that has been making headlines for oth...

Re: New UC LOTR Items!

I trust Justin far more than that particular site. So much more, that I'm willing to pay a little extra and shop from FnK over them... Anyways, I doubt that these products will ever see the light of day. Seems like more rumors being thrown around. It'd be nice if UC would just tell people. But they ...

Re: New UC LOTR Items!

This is quite interesting and very frustrating... Why is it that UC never really listens to the people who will be actually -buying- their products? Sam's Sword????????? While I'd like to see a better version of the High Elven Warrior Sword (Glad that I decided to cancel my order for the standard on...

Re: Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

Well...after this ordeal (which I'd say it has definetely crossed the line of annoyance to ordeal), I -finally- have a piece from the store. The following is a copy of the e-mail I sent to them: Hello, I’m writing to you in response to the service I’ve had thus far from *store*. I’ve been a customer...

Re: Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

Well...here's a quick update... My new axe has -finally- shipped. Once I receive the axe and inspect it for any defects, I plan to e-mail the company to e xp ress my extreme disgust with their service (or lack thereof). I've already e-mailed a forum supporter store to determine their stock of the pr...

Re: Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

Well...quick update. I will -not- be shopping at this store anymore. It's very upsetting to realize that I've purchased so many products from them and now that they've screwed up one of my orders, I really don't feel comfortable buying from them anymore. The damaged axe was shipped back to them on M...

Re: Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

Well...glad to report that I was contacted early this morning by the company instructing me to ship it back to them and that there is "no cost for returns like this". Not quite sure what that means, but I inquired to see if I would be reimbursed for the initial shipping...I guess we'll see...

Re: Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

Oh, don't get me wrong. I'm not alarmed at all. I know for a fact that they -usually- don't answer e-mails on the weekend. However, still a little paranoid as to how the whole situation will be handled and such. I think just about every collector out there has had a similar situation. I was actually...

Re: Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

Seeing that the company hasn't e-mailed me back I was hoping some folks could reassure me. Considering the situation, what do you -think- the procedure would be? The site says that products can be returned within 30 days and such, but it doesn't detail exchanges due to manufacturing/packing issues. ...

Re: Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

ARGGGGG... I need to vent somewhere, and this being the topic about it, it shall be here... Got my axe in...all giddy to get both axes up on the wall... Manufacturing problems!!! Axe had a wooden piece broken off and an extremely loose axe head...on top of that, the certificate was torn to shreds......

Re: Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

Mkay, thanks guys. I have a short section of wall that runs between the floor and a descending ceiling (probably not the architectural term...but whatever) and that's where the axes are going to have to go as I've run out of room on the 'sword' wall...heh. I was just curious if I would have to move ...

Gimli's Walking Axe Help?

Okay, so I've ordered the Walking Axe and it's on its way. But I need some assistance from anyone who already owns it. I've checked the measurements and all that good stuff, but I'm paranoid. The place where I want to hang the axe is a little bit cramped and I'm curious about how long the axe is fro...

Re: Official Legolas Bow Help?

Yup...that's the one I've looked at thus far. I wasn't entirely sure if it was as pictures and such. A review on another site lead me to believe otherwise. But, I just got word back from the company I'm considering ordering it from. They said it's exactly as pictured, and it takes 3-4 weeks. I'm -ho...

Official Legolas Bow Help?

I'm attempting to pick up an Officially Licensed Bow of Legolas from somewhere...Anyone have any input as to where I should be looking, or if I should even bother? I need info! I have found one site that has it, and they have yet to get back to me with my questions.

Re: Should I Trust Them???

Definitely fake. Good way to tell is they don't list the UC model number. Also, they're far too cheap to be legit. Image quality is beyond poor, and the names of the pieces themselves are off. "Narsil Reforged"? Stick with mainstream retailers. They're e xp ensive, but they have awesome se...

Re: Is UC stopping their LOTR productions?

You make a good point Valkrist. I never considered that retailers may be having trouble selling products. I've only known of a handful of actual stores that sell LOTR swords. I've only purchased my swords online, and to be honest those purchases have been over the past few months when they were -all...

Re: Guthwine

Add me to the list!!! I too would like to see the Rohan set complete, as well as the Dwaven axes!! It's my understanding that the bearded axe (the final axe in the set) has at least some possibility of being released. It was worked on at UC, whereas Guthwine wasn't ever in the planning stages. Stil...

Re: Guthwine

I'm not normally one to 'bump' a topic...but I'm really curious if there is any truth to the claim that this sword isn't wanted by LOTR or sword fans?

Is there anyone else that really wants to see this sword made, maybe even above other swords?

Re: Guthwine

Well, the site that I typically buy from has announced that UC seems to be cutting down and perhaps even -stopping- the production of several pieces, including Herugrim, Witchking Sword, Ringwraith Sword, Legolas' Fighting Knives, Strider's Ranger Sword, Glamdring, and even Sting. Any site represent...

Re: Guthwine

Don't get me wrong, Herugrim is a beautiful sword, and out of my five pieces, it's probably my favorite. The designs on the hilts of the Rohan blades are absolutely beautiful; I'm considering buying Eowyn's simply for that, someday. The most recent purchases have made quite the dent in my bank accou...

Re: Guthwine

Thanks for the confirmation, Valkrist. To be honest, as much as I like Herugrim, I'd rather have Guthwine. I was under the impression long ago that all three would be released (mostly due to BbB) so I figured Herugrim would satisfy me for now. However, as grim as the future looks, I still hold out s...

Re: Guthwine

The last I heard about it (which has been scattered information), the sword was never really planned, though certain sites had it up as being in the works. Kit Rae (I believe) stated that Guthwine was -not- in the works, and probably wouldn't be due to less than desirably sales of Herugrim and Eowyn...

Guthwine

Now, I realize that they've stated many times that this sword was never -officially- planned, and that the outlook of this blade is pretty grim. And I realize that chances are -very- slim that any petition here or anywhere for that matter will alter UC's mind on their decision not to make this sword...
