If Lurtz and Uruk break 2k on eBay, this thing could end up double that.

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF
I wanted to like this, but the Ringwraith almost looks bored and nonchalance on the rearing up horse. The pose of the rider just doesn't flow with the pose of the horse. Had the horse been on in a trotting or standing pose, it would have been epic. But the rearing up look, while awesome for the horse, doesn't work with the rider IMO.

I Agree that the horse in a trotting pose would have been epic with the rider reaching out, but i like the current pose also but now you implanted the trotting idea in my head that would have been epicccc too

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF
Honestly, this pose very much fits the ringwraith as much as the SSW statue did. He looks very menacing reaching out for you on a horse who is rearing up.

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF
Not sure if SS can correct the pose with this one. They did the same thing with the Morgul Lord in his contorted stance. With this PF, the horse doesn't know whether to sit or stand on his hind legs (note how the tail is bent in), and the rider doesn't know to be in counterbalance to his horse. With the EX offer, he's using his left arm for the sword, BUT, the scabbard is also on his left side. Last I checked scabbards need to be opposite from the hand you pull with.
Still, I may need to order it, just for the completist in me.

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF
I still like the idea, I just feel the execution of the pose didn't work. The rider's body shouldn't be in same pose as he would be when the horse is standing normally. He should be leaning back (or perhaps forward) or something to counter act the horse rearing up, and potentially bucking him off he is isn't doing anything about it. This may be one of those pieces that looks better and makes more sense in person than in pics.

The shade of black is off by 3 percent. Total fail from sideshow. Can't they do anything right?
Meanwhile in Syria 100s of innocent people are killed..but damn sideshow for not getting this fictional horse and rider correct.

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF
That's cool. I'm the opposite it works for the Ringwraiths. I get that it might not work in the real world with real people but with the Ringwraiths and how they are in Middle-Earth it does. Though, he is leaning a bit forward.

Re: Ringwraith on Steed PF
When a horse rears, you lean forward, otherwise your momentum will have you falling off the backend. He's leaning forward.
Also about the rear hooves position, I googled rearing horses and found them in all sorts of positions, depending on just when the picture was taken.
I just hope there's no cracking of the legs with this.
