Hi peeps, I'm starting to get into the helms now.
It started with the Gondorian collection which, I'll admit, I intended to sell on in order to fund my quest for the complete statue collection. But then they arrived and I was totally blown away....that's how good the helms are, that they can turn someone who only intended to make a profit out of them into a helm collector! Plus I thought putting Faramirs helm next to Boromir would be cool...
After the Gondorian lot came the free Elessars crown, which I dislike and made me start to think that maybe helms aren't that great after all. But THEN Sideshow offered a FREE Sauron helm with an order of the troll maquettes, which I had wanted but wanted for a good price....so when they had all 4 at a discount PLUS a free Sauron helm, I succumbed. I had just got the Sauron statue so knew how good the helm would be. I ordered the Mouth of Sauron helm as soon as it became available because, well, I'd order any Mouth of Sauron SSW merchandise. And then last week Eomers helm became available to the EU only so I ordered, knowing how good the Rohan helms are, plus to display next to the Eomer bust.
So there we have it, I will have 5 helms (well, 8 if you dont count the Gondor collection as a set) and am bidding on a Theoden helm and a royal guard helm on ebay. God can only help me now.
Could you all post photos of how you have yours displayed? Moe, Mr.Fell Beast, I remember you have a FANTASTIC display, I would love to see that again...
Thanks!
