About this deal

The Steward of Gondor, this grim character is shown in an ornate real wood 5x7” silver leafed oval frame. The frame was chosen to reflect his rank, and overly proud and embittered attitude as it is threatened.

Akin to the Hobbits benefitting from the dual-moulded legs developed after they last appeared in minifigure form, Gandalf the Grey includes a modern dress piece to recreate his robes, greatly improving upon the prior minifigure. The decoration across the torso and dress element matches his original garb and the reverse also displays some creasing, despite usually being covered. Kathryn is an avid fan of the Lord of the Rings, and this collection of Silhouettes was created as a work from the heart, to honor her favorite film trilogy. Among many interesting features, the roof tiles have attracted particular attention. Rows of sand blue, tan, nougat and sand green 1x1 tiles are laid diagonally across the roof, arranged to create repeated patterns. These correspond exactly with Rivendell's film appearances, with sign pieces flawlessly completing the roof slope. They have never appeared in sand green before, while the nougat 1x1 tiles are also new.Not having a fully re-forged Anduril as well as the hilt shard of Narsil (as cool as it genuinely is!) also feels like a miss in a set this expensive. Admittedly that’s more for the books than the movies at this point in the story but we can only hope that the fully restored version of this sword appears in LotR sets yet to come… and the same for Gandalf’s Glamdring.

Agree with everyone else who feels that there ought to have been more than one type of elf hair piece. There were several made for the previous LotR sets and some of those would have been perfectly suited for re-use here. On balance, I actually prefer the more streamlined look of the previous version of the “standard” elf hair piece with ears; this new one feels just a little too bulky to me. Ranger of the North, Aragorn is framed in an unadorned silver leafed 5x7” wood oval frame. A King in waiting, Aragorn is the heir of Isildur and rightful claimant to the thrones of Arnor and Gondor. But I highly highly doubt it'll be on release day. I just don't see a set worthy of the full 500€ here. Captain of the Rangers of Ithilien and little brother of Boromir, the Tree of Gondor is emblazoned on his uniform. A silver frame of the same style as Boromir’s was chosen, as he was deemed “second place” by their Father, Denethor II. 5x7” real wood oval, silver leafed.The bookcase on the ground floor resembles those in Elrond's library, where Gandalf and Elrond discuss plans for the One Ring in The Fellowship of the Ring. The books look superb in a variety of colours and with different spines, flanked by decorative scrolls. Moreover, this room contains a pair of candelabra and a récamier, with green cushions. The enigma of LOTR, Tom’s Silhouette is shown with bare minimal detail, with only a blue feather to distinguish him. Tom put on the Ring, yet it had no effect upon him. The gold leafing on the inner lip of the frame signifies his handling the Ring, but the pure blue frame signifies he remained wholly unchanged by it. Wood oval, 5x7” (Tom is not in the film version of LOTR, but his presence is a nod to those who have read the books and might be charmed to see him included!)
