Everyone knows that these miniatures from Games-Workshop and other hobby stores have been out since the start of the first movie. Many people collect them, paint them, and battle them. I love to do it all, most of the character's you paint are very difficult. There is a wide range of Miniatures that you can collect.

~*~Free Peoples~*~
Rohan - Theoden, Eomer
Wood Elves - Celebron, Haldir
High Elves - Gil-Galad, Elrond
Gondor - Faramir, Denathor
Dwarves - Balin, Dain

~*~Forces of Evil~*~
Goblins - Balrog
Orc's - Sauron
Urah-Kai - Sarumon

I will provide pictures of these miniatures on later dates. Right now I have 48 men of Minas Tirith(Foot) , 24 Men of Rohan(Foot), and 8 Men of the Dead with the king of the dead.

What do you have or what would you like to get in the future. I am hoping to get many Elves - Wood and High alike, because their Archers pack a heavy punch and they contain almost the strongest warrior's in the game.

If it had better magic rules like the Fantasy version of warhammer has it would be better, but all in all it&#39;s pretty good for skirmishes. Although I think if they actually played the battle of helms deep that they had in the 2 towers rule book it would be a bit much... Thats where the rank and file troops make it easy in Fantasy v.

(I got elrond, and 1 last alliance box...that was a little over a year ago tho)

yes but you can do the same for Lord of the rings&#33; they don&#39;t all have to be in normal single by themselves&#33; I hate fantasy for the reason of expensivness&#33;
