Re: Our newest Administrators

Congrats and THANKS to all of you! You've done a hell of a job for this little community, and I can't thank you enough. Collecting and my interest in Middle-Earth would have been the passing fad of a youth if I hadn't had this community to keep me interested and excited and give me people to share m...

Re: New Movies

I watched a bunch of 80's action movies this weekend at my girlfriend's family getaway up in Northern Michigan. Her Uncle always has some macho-flick from the 80's on TV. I don't even remember which ones were which, but I know we watched Clint Eastwood save the president, Clint Eastwood train some s...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

Valkrist, a big reason they have a lot of that smaller "trinket" type stuff is for customers who come casually into the Weta Cave in Wellington and want to take back souvenirs or buy gifts or just aren't in the market for a giant stone statue of a dragon. :laugh: In case you missed it, the...

Re: Welcome to the new home of Ultimate Collectors’ Forums!

WOAH! Hullo there, friends! :coolsmile This is cool! I can't wait to see what people come up with to decorate the forum, and I'm glad we've got our old smileyes still. :thumbs_up I always thought that Justin started the forum. It's amazing you know, I've been here six years and there's a big chunk o...

Re: Pure Middle-Earth discussion.

Holy smokes, I had nearly forgotten about Jeff! I have almost bought that picture so many times. All if his work is wonderful! :) Speaking of artwork, I have another question. Does anyone know of any good renditions of ents that aren't movie inspired? I have reached the Treebeard chapter in The Two ...

Re: Pure Middle-Earth discussion.

So lately I've been beating my exam stress by reading more of The Fellowship of the Ring. I feel like I pick up more and more every time I read it. It almost seems to me like the previous times I read for plot and was just watching the movie in my head; now, I'm really painting Middle-Earth in my mi...

Re: The Hobbit

Me too, I wish all the filmed material was just available in the extras! It would be great, I hope it's not too much to ask for in the inevitable future re-releases. :P It took me a while to notice the Palantir in that scene! Super cool that they made a tie in there, and while it makes me cringe a t...

Re: Forum concerns - what to do?

I would also suggest a "backup", as that is just good business, but please don't cease to contribute to the conversation here and on the S+F, should it return! Your work, tutorials and creative input generate some of the most interesting discussions on both boards, and it would be a traged...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

I'm surprised that Bolg sold out that fast. He didn't play that big of a role in the movie. I wasn't e xp ecting him to be a super popular seller. How big was the ES? As far as that new environment, I would not be surprised if it was Rhoshobel, but I'm thinking that since they're showing a prototype...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

Well, at the very least, I'm hoping that the likely good sales of this piece will give them the encouragement they need to continue making new pieces. Overpriced pieces that I can hunt for the rest of my life as a hobby are a heck of a lot better than no pieces at all. They sure are nice, at least i...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

I'm afraid that, even as an environment collector, I echo Valkrist's sentiment. If this was one of a few times that Weta has priced something comparitively high, I might get the itch and spring for it. But this coming off the heels of main character statues being priced at 300-400 dollars, coupled w...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

They showed you guys the Green Dragon at the S+F moot?! Was this under wraps or did I just miss the report big time? :P The S+F was pushing for that for a loooong time. Idril, how big is it compared to the Hobbit holes? I can't tell if its supposed to be a standalone or part of the mini hobbit hole ...
