Goliath's collection

[goliath]

The UK link still works, but couldn't find them on the US website anymore

Ikea doesn't use part numbers, just item names, these are called NARTORP, maybe you call them and ask for it.

Come on, now... Two Cave Trolls? You've got a lot of money sitting on those shelves--I hope for your sake that they can hold the weight!

 

[goliath]

Only one Troll left, the other one has been replaced with a Moria Orc Archer.

No problem with those statues on top, you could probably place 100 pounds on top of each cabinet with no problem, the weak points (if any) would only be the glass shelves.

BTW: If you can't see any pictures right now, I'm trying to update my website right now using a modem dial-up connection

Please ignore the layout of the page, I'd like it to look nicer, but just don't have enough time at the moment...

The "Moria Bunch" is now complete:

 

[goliath]

did you get Uruk-hai Swordsman Statue ?
it's one of the best statues out there

Yesss, finally found this guy in the mail today:

Hopefully my last and final addition - besides upcoming Legimrod and Aragorn at the Black Gates.

Now I'm looking forward to the weekend to rearrange stuff

Is the UHSS the best orc statue?

Is the UHSS the best orc statue?

The orcs are the lowest in my personal ranking, that's why I got them the last - the reason is not the sculpting of the statues, it's just because they don't mean much to me as characters in the books / movies.

They are pretty generic with few exceptions, no individual characters, but anonymous parts in a war machinery - but of course, that was probably also Tolkien's intention.

The Orcs that I have I would rank as follows:

1. Moria Orc Swordsman (awesome details, incredible sculpt!)
2. Uruk-Hai Scout Swordsman (very dynamic pose)
3. Moria Orc Archer (very nice details)
4. Orc Brute (I don't even display him...)

Updated pictures are now online

Rearranging is fun, but I still need to work on one huge cabinet...

 

[BDboystoys]

Thanks!

btw, the updated pics look much better. You have done a great job in rearranging.

Seeing Aragorn at the Black Gates arriving next week already causes me headaches... It is REALLY getting time for a BIG new cabinet...

 

[hairlesswookiee]
