Wendy suggested Sam over a cooking fire.

I can't remember who it was who suggested Sam, but they certainly have grounds for being miffed by the result, don't you think?

Ah, I don't mind.  I certainly don't begrudge Master Estel the win, especially for a subject with so much scope for the imagination. 

My only disappointment was the decidedly unexciting ending to a rather exciting vote.   

Huuoooommm .... so as Master O'Brian has informed a bit about the next three regular M-series it's not necessary any more to regard this as a rumour or a secret ... rhuoomm ... I'm looking forward to holding them in my hands ... huom ... though it might take some time until then .... but why haste?

Sweet! The Battle of Helm's Deep(3 separate releases for it!) Orcs, Dunlendings, and Rohan warriors I am guessing.
If I am wrong Master Tree, let me know.

Huoommm ... you're perfectly right, Master Jdbrown55 .... huoomm ... Master O'Brian gave that hint today by answering a query about the next M-releases (series) ... rhuoommm .... hom ... and I can tell that he's right about this matter .... huoom

Happy Easter to everyone!
Don't eat to many eggs!

You are not wrong with this time thing you mentioned my friend the Ent. My sand in the houre glass must be a lot thinner. It runs 9 hours faster then yours.

Huooommmmrhuooommmm ... so here they are ... I just assembled Willi's brother ... and wonder if it's a horse leg he's holding or could it be a cow's leg ... rhuoommm ... you might remember the "club" or "matton" -discussion concerning Willie .... rhruooommhom ... Master Barliman should be able to tell ... huom ... excellent figure by the way ... ooops, sorry, I just have seen that there's some kind of hoof ... so, horse it must be .... hommm
as for the Boromir ... huommm ... I'll try to finish attaching those parts today ... rhuoommm ... who was it having had the idea of how to fix arrows accordingly to such a figure .... huoomm ... it was shortly after the MS434 was released ... rhuooommmhom ... wonderful figure that hornblower ... hom ...

The man himself suggested using bits of telephone wire to make the arrows.

I assume you fray the wire a bit and use the frayed wire bit to make the arrow feathers and the straighter bit to make the spent arrow shaft.

I used another method myself... I used little thin pieces of plastic which I heated upon a flame until it grows soft and can be pulled into a straight thin shaft (not to close of the flame or it will dissolve) Once it is soft i cut the flame and thin it right away.
Then I use pointed tongs to make the fletch. and I can glue the head directly into the body and paint it.
With this method, I managed to stick half a dozen arrows on the "death of Boromir" vignette... and they are solid, not as thin as telephone wire (to thin according to me) and far more straight and unmovable than a wire

Huom just behold what The Man said about to attach them arrows ...rhuoommm...

I think it was a mutton chop, ie, sheep's hoof, in the Troll's grip.

Yesssss, please, Holger. The list grows . . .
