    I was just thinking that a Statue/bust of Peter Jackson as the Corsair would be wicked - complete with arrow in chest, and horrified expression on face! I'd love a bust of the King of the Dead, and also his helm would make a great addition to the current set. Black Gate Environment would...

    Again with the pics, I caved-in and just ordered an Elendil bust from Fireside. I lucked into stumbling onto a 1:1 Samaritan on a site for a local comic shop selling it for cheaper than Sideshow even did, I then told a few friends that were interested but it went off the site quickly - it looks...

    Yes, Kami's pic's earlier had put me over the edge and I ordered Sauron's Helm that's sitting in the other room as I type, and I've preordered the gaunlet too, and will thusly have to aquire that big-ass mace if they make it... Mouth of Sauron arrived today - looks wicked, love the oversized...

    Hey Kami, congrat's on all the winnings ... did you get your Sauron Helm yet? I've gotten my invoice, and tracking numbers (that don't seem to work for me yet) and when I check out the status at fireside it says 'on hold' did yours do that? Maybe that just means it's being held at customs for a...

    Holy Christmas!!! That's no helmet, its a space station! Thanks again, I emailed back to check if USPS EMS was the option I chose ... Anyone else get a confirmation that the "Mouth of Sauron" is shipping within the month? That's cool news seeing that he was estimated to ship Q1 2005 - I...

    Hey Kami, that thing looks wicked - post some pics (if you can) when you get it! I just ordered one with your link, there's a place in London, Ontario that says they can get it, but they've been waiting a year to get more LOTR swords so I don't want to chance it... my only gripe is that it'd be...

    So ..... anyone going to the San Diego Comic Con? Wanna pick me up an extra little 1/4 scale exclusive Gollum Bust? He'd look great with the rest of the Hobbits... I'm worried about the price when he shows up on eBay in August...

    Hey Kami, the Theoden was at a small comics/games shop in London, Ontario called LA Moods but I get most of my Weta stuff straight from Sideshowtoys site ... and the odd piece from a place you probably know called SilverSnail in Toronto ... I wish I could get more pieces from stores so I'm not...

    Hey everyone - I can buy a Theoden statue tomorrow for $160.00 Canadian .... the paint job looks great .... but for some reason I need some convincing - tell me I'm stupid for not buying it already.... I don't know why I haven't yet - I guess I just really like the creatures and bad guys...

    Ginger Snaps 2 DVD

    I noticed the same pixellation on my Canadian DVD during the opening credits/leg shaving and the entering the furnace ducts - same pixels every time - must be the compression when they made the transfer - didn't notice the layer transfer pause though - but my player seems to handle those pretty...
