I am short of all the statues, all the busts, all the environments and all the helms. :lol I have 3 lithos, 16 medallions, 3 plaques and some DVD freebies to my name...in complete contrast to a year or 2 ago when I had all, well almost all, the big boys of the statue and bust line. Such is life.

got 'em all in hand or pre ordered, except Gandalf the Bronze, which, interesting enough didn't really excite me enough to mortgage my home for him.

Well, I have all the Medallions, all the Plaques, all the art prints and only need one to finish the weapon sets. As for the rest, I need most of the busts and helms and a little more than half of the statues. Oh well, at least I will be collecting these pieces for a long time to come! :lol

i'm a college grad, but i don't feel the need to mention it in 20% of my posts...
AND I have a job...

I was saying it as part of my story about why the pic is there. I'm not bragging about having a degree never have never will.

this reminds me of a guy from Penn State, when i went there... did i ever mention that...?
yeah he used to try and deny that he was putting peanut butter in the toilet paper tubes, and having sex with them, but we saw the dog sniff his ass...
oh well, maybe i went to school with Bodie, and i never knew it...? :bonk

Being a graduate or having a degree doesn't mean that much these days. I see plenty of muppets who can barely tie their own shoelaces but still come out with some qualifications.
In the real world, there is no substitute for experience and skill. If you can count backwards from 100 then woopy do but they can train monkeys to do that.

Very nice collection Josh !!!!
My priority is to complete the fellowship, for that I just need Meriadoc and Pippin.

07-07-2005, 09:30 AM
Thanks Rod!!
Well, that was my goal when I started and thankfully I was able to complete. However, that was the only pieces I really wanted when I started and we all know how that usually turns out :lol

I have everything apart from the Bronze Gandalf and the three prints. Never considered them part of the line anyway.
Since it's complete, I'm now selling all my extras (see the Sale/Trade section).

I have everything , minus 100 or so pieces ! :rock
Samwise The Brave
07-10-2005, 09:08 AM
I have 116 including pe-orders I have all Staues, Busts, Enviroments, Art Prints, and Plaques. I did not collect weapons as I collect the UC lotr line. I only got War Mask of the Morgul Lord, and the Gondorian Helm Collection was not a fan of the helms. I missed out on the medallions. Gandalf Bronze just too many ££££ But maybe one day<img border=0 src="http://www.maxwellsgoldenhammer.com/emo/rock.gif" />
I am missing 2 statues, I only have 4 medalions and don't have the lastest Gandalf print and Bronze...

I'm missing enough of them to know that I will never be a completist, even though I loads of them.
Agent23
07-11-2005, 12:49 PM
More then enough to know I'll never even come close to completion.
But, that is 0k, aside from a couple of the early pieces that I missed out on, I have everything in my collection now or on pre-order that I want.
All in all, I'll have about 20 - 25 pieces (statues, couple helms, and environments), and my Barad-Dur Giclee.
FlyAndFight
07-11-2005, 01:06 PM
I don't want the complete collection but rather some specific pieces and I really only need about 5 or so of those.
Then again, I may get tempted on some others... :google

07-11-2005, 09:35 PM
To me collecting is a completely different philosophy, and I don't feel the need to buy everything. I do, however, want to complete certain categories within the line.
I would like to get:
1. All of the Rider & Steeds (have all in hand or preordered---I don't count Sam & Bill)
2. All the lithos (need Gandalf on Gwaihir)
3. All the mini-monsters (need the Fell Beast)
4. Most of the environments (Helms Deep sucks--I sold it, and Orthanc is too expensive).
5. In addition to those, I'm getting Sauron and KOTD. I also would like to get the Treebeard bust at some point. That's it for me.
It's pretty funny how the pieces that remain for the rest of the year fall into one of my groups. I'm passing on Pippin, Eowyn, Galadriel, and PJ, but I've got everything else on preorder.

Well i'm certainly no completist.
I just collect the good guys primarily although I do have a couple of non-scary looking Baddies(Orig Balrog,Cavetroll,Saruman,RWOS,GOW and Morgul Lord).I'm a woos and don't like the bad guys, my collection is in my bedroom and they scare me(pathetic I know).
I simply must have the Horse/Rider series, all of which I have including pre-orders and Sam & bill as I do count him too.
I have the majority of what I want although to complete the Collection I would still LOVE a Witchking in Trueform(pesky thing, just can't seem to get one) and a Treebeard.So I will hunt for those once some others paid for.

It's not pathetic Shell, I was once scared by the Wormtongue bust! I sat up a bit too quickly and it was staring me in the face. ARGH!
Hmm, those baddies you have sound pretty scary to me! I'm sure you would love the Mouth Of Sauron bust...

07-12-2005, 10:53 AM
Thanks Frodo:wave
hee hee, that happened to me once but with Gollum.
Back when I first started collecting I wanted everything and bought a lifesize cardboard cut out of Gollum, it gave me nightmares, so it lasted about 2 days and has been packed away ever since.
Yeah the baddies I got are facing away from me so they don't look too bad.Although the RWOS is much scarier than I thought it would be !.
MOS scares me in the film, can you imagine what I would be like with him in my collection.I'd never sleep again, :google
