you can't argue the price of metal is higher and don't rise up the price of all your old products to match this metal price increase. that sounds odd wink

of course you can -- the older releases have already been cast, thus there is no need to buy metal again ... somehow i doubt that they recast their old releases. wink

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Very interesting what The Main explained.
Also there are three Sauron variants mentioned in the official newsletter . . .
Interesting what will happen with these . . .
Maybe gifts for extraordinary people, maybe special offers on evilbay, maybe official released by The Man himself . . .
Who knows.

I can argue against the MASS production of stocks that costs more than casting "on demand" which would reduce costs in the cuture crisis context wink Yes I can wink

I have partial answer to this as I was aware of those two early versions... I know the original one has been utterly destroyed, it was a version in greenstuff and not really fitting so it did not reach the status of master.. as for the second, it may have been the same fate... Chris was REALLY not happy with those

as you can imagine I had already asked wink

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Yes, Gildor, I can imagine this !!! big_smile
Hopefully Chris was lucky with that variant having the mask-like helmet . . .
That reminds me on the variant of the entobed- in this case: "fallen" Balrog . . .

our innkeeper claims that due to high metal prices on the world market he had to raise prices for ale, scrumpy et al ... it's possible that he's in fact saving for a precious figurine.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Huoommm ... methinks only a rise in prices for rattails and furballs could be considered as for raising scrumpy-prices in this very Pony .... huoommm ... I really don't think Master Barliman thought of raising prices here ... huomm ... and to be honest, Master Cameosis, I don't think metal prices on the market in Bree have anything to do with the price for beverages and brews in the Pony ... hruomojhom ...

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

I don't think there's any problem in discussing my bar prices in a public forum. And if more people know about The Man's Fellowship work it may encourage them to sign up!

True master elf.
Please Barliman, when you see Nacho around, offer him a drink.
It's my turn as he's been very busy taking pictures for PA wiki gallery.

Puuh, there is so much to read . . .
I prefer having a drink with Master cameosis and start a discussion about Cameo and Parliament . . .

Hurrah, free drinks for everyone!* - after a prolonged delay my 21st book has just been published, which I guess means I've finally come of age as an author.

*Make the most of this offer - it doesn't happen often...

Thanks for the drink Master Barliman.... and by the way, what types of books you publish. Are you a writer or a publisher. I'm interested. Maybe there's something with the translation into Croatian..... smile thanks in advance... !

And of course - CONGRATULATIONS  !!!!
