Lord of the Rings Figures

[Scott]

Brian...I saw a bunch of the new TTT at TRU today...almost all Frodo's and Aragorns so they should be there a while.  If you want me to pick them up for you I can, but you may also want to keep an eye on the local store

[Brian]

Thanks Scott, I'll check it out today actually and see.  Not a real good time for them to hit though, since I've been spending so much on Star Wars lately .  Thanks for the heads up though, I appreciate it.

Ordered Birthday Bilbo and Coronation Gimli from Amazon today. Gil-Galad and Elrond aren't in stock right now, but I don't want to spend $100 right now to catch up.

Still need Shelob, the Coronation set, and TTT wave 3.

[Morgbug]

Those are hanging around up here, lmk if you need any help.  Well, not Gamling, but I do have the rest of that wave, coronation set is at TRU and Gil-Galad and Elrond are peg warming for the time being.

[Nicklab]

Still trying to find Gamiling and the Orc from the new TTT assortment.  Haven't seen hide nor hair of those yet, just the new Aragorn, reissue Frodo & Boromir.

[Scott]

TRU should have them (the TTT Wave) soon I would guess, I'm happy to be caught up for a while here. 

[Scott]

Oh, and is Wave 4 due this month still or have they been pushed backa  few months (as most Toy Biz product has been)

Ah, dumb question, but what's the difference between a super poseable Strider and sp Aragorn?

And what are the hot figures from these lineups?  I'm happy to pick them up for anyone that needs them.  I've had good luck, so long as I grab them when I first see them.  And you don't mind bilogo cards that is. 

[Scott]

Well, he changed outfits once they got to Rivendell so I'd say Strider will be representative of the first 1/4 of FOTR

Not sure on the case packs yet so its unclear as to the "hot" figure

BTW Brent, you see Vision and Hawkeye from ML please pick them up for me!

[Morgbug]

Yeah, Vision and Hawkeye will be the same as Phoenix, I'll buy every one I see.  No worries.

[Ben]

Saw the Coronation set at Wal-Mart today, but I passed on it since I bought Bossk and Aayla Unleashed. D'oh!

My Amazon order should all be here by Friday, and I'll be happy to get some new LOTR figures. It's been awhile.

[Brian]

I actually noticed our Wal-Mart has the Coronation set as well.  They were sitting kind of on a backshelf by the bikes (along with one OTC Millennium Falcon).  Didn't even know they had them.

[Scott]

Wave 3 TTT in stock (except Gamling)

[Brian]

Thanks for the heads up Scott, I might have to pick them up there.  I've kind of been wanting to get a nice version of both Aragorn and Frodo, and there hasn't been anything new LOTR-wise around here in a looooong time.  Plus, $5.99 each for those anyways is pretty close to retail, depending on how much shipping is.  We'll have to see.  Thanks for the link though!

**Ah, I see shipping is a flat rate of $4.99.  I'll have to decide if I should just wait for them to show up in the stores or not.  Hmmm...

[Ben]

How the Eye figure will have 38 POA is a mystery for the ages.
