Very cool score!!!

I have one coming from up north so I am pretty excited to get it, along with  a Legolas and Arwen.  Now, all I need is for TB to re-release the Easterling!!!

Well, we canuckleheads aim to please.  :D

Have a Uruk Hai Crossbow available for trade should anyone find themselves in need.

Jeez. Army builders at one per. What is it with TB anyway? They released an entire wave of builders in TTT series 5, and they sold like mad. No logic, I swear.

Oh well. It's never really been too difficult to find one-per-case figures, although with the way this Trilogy line is moving lately, that might change.

Anyone catch crippler's post over at GH?  James seems to have dug up a pretty exciting scoop on a rather large, deluxe beast figure coming up in this line...   8)

The NECA Balrog.   ;D

Have we talked about this?  I forget.  It's not the TB one, which seems doomed and now irrelevant.  Looking SO forward to this.

I nabbed a Haradirrim Archer tonight.  Man, gotta love $5 figures.

The guy is great, if not a tad difficult to pose.  Still great though.

has anyone ever ordered from KBtoys.com?

I just ordered from them, and am curious if their items come in condition or what?

The stuff I ordered from them always arrived fine, but came with a shipping sticker applied to the bubble of the figure.  Comes right off, if you peel carefully.

What did you order?

Looks like a new Frodo and a new head on Gollum there. I think I'll pick this up.

I just saw a whole bunch of those sets on Friday at my local TRU, Ben.  They also had another 3-pack for TTT, called "Heroes", or something like that - with just Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli...

Shouldn't a Mt. Doom 3-pack have Sam and Frodo in their shirts only instead of the jackets and things?

:(

The multi-packs seem like really good ways to move lots of figures though.  They tend not to sit at my local stores either (Only TRU ever has them, and only a couple at a time).

Well, the Mount Doom set is repack.  I have Gollum in front me from the TTT talking-rock version and it's the exact same face mold.  As for Sam and Frodo...it's the figures from FOTR, where they are in the boat.  Same arctiulation, same sting, the only difference is the capes.  

Blast, I was hoping for a new Frodo....oh well, more money in my pocket, I guess.

Oh yeah, that is the same Frodo, isn't it? Oh well. Guess I'll just stick with buying the Ringbearers 3-pack, provided it actually makes it to the shelves. ::)

Yeah, the ringbearers set is the only I'm getting.  I'm saving lots of money this year!

Hey dude, what happened to your Eowyn avatar?  It was so sweet!  

I am not to much of a fan of the three packs actually, i like to stick to the regular 6" line!
