C7A action figure: A charming and matronly hobbit-lady with a firm voice and toes that dig in during deep debates (especially debates about Frodo.)
Squatter of Amon Rudh action figure: comes with wrought iron fence, glow-in-the-dark-flashlight accessory, and two tombstones labeled BEREN and LUTHIEN. H-I action figure: one arm lights fireworks. The other arm gives jewels. However the best thing about this action figure is that it can enter ancient libraries (swirling impressive wizard's robe) dust off an old scroll, and bring it out to the front door. Has a very pleasant smile. Mister Underhill action figure-- very limited edition. Nobody knows what it looks like. |

Perhaps the HI figure could be in a set with the B88 one.... special edition for the discerning collector ... with LOTS of fireworks |
Rimbaud action figure: left arm extend partway as figure says:

You must have been speaking with my family. They have another word for it: pig headed and stubborn! :p |
Very funny, thanks Helen for directing me here :D
My add up: mark 12_30™ action figure - is very amicable, tells jokes with a moral one probably would not understand without being widely read, and has very pointed silences - once it stops talking to you, the right guess would be you did say something not acceptable or were not a good boy/gel lately at all! Saulotus™ action figure - sombre and a bit bulky one, knows all there is to know about Tolkien Canon and Uncanon, and utters exclamations curiosly resembling 'balderdash' and 'absolute rubbish' any time anyone starts speculating about anything vaguely reminiscent of Tolkien. If the 'speculator' insists on commiting the same crime again, kicks off prolix discourses referring to numerous sources and producing manuscripts out of his sleeve. We are awfully sorry, but Saulotus™ action figure is out of stock currently. Try searching under Bob Wehadababyitsaboy™ or similar keywords. But the latter is equally out of stock, we are grieved to inform you. Try again later Balin999™ action figure comes with a bonus helicopter. Never says the same thing twice. Sharkŭ™ action figure does a lot of work behind the stage, being, at the same time, constantly (and mysteriously) absent. You lose the chance of seeing the figure again as soon as you buy it - its stand will always be marked with a litle cardboard sign reading 'away' in a fine curly script Who's Online™ digital chess set - requires great patience on behalf of the gamers, as they must catch their chance of starting the game exactly at the time when 64 members are online. And beware of the spiders - they tend to haunt same squares as pieces do use for the moves. |

I think the only "set" my action figure would come in is the:
Maeggaladiel & Morai Set! Set the two action figures within 6" of eachother, and hear them make strange punny jokes about the horrid, green, land they lovingly call "Oredor." (Yes the spelling is intentional.) Other features include: ~Mini trashcan and crumpled up pieces of paper ~Mini life-like version of Mt. St. Doom NOTE: Tree Wraiths and Tree huggers not included, come seperately |
*New for Christmas*
The Repping Game
Liven up dinner parties and family gatherings with this fun new game from Barrow Downs Inc™. Each player starts with one green jewel. Players take it in turn to ask Tolkien-related questions from cards. All the other players must answer and then vote on who has provided the wisest or wittiest answer. That player receives a green jewel from each player or, if a player has none, from the bank. The aim of the game is to amass eleven jewels before anyone else can. To make things more interesting, the game comes with various joker cards. Play the HerenIstarion the Munificent card to instantly gain a jewel from every player. The Wisdom of Davem card requires every player to give you one jewel a turn for the rest of the game, while the Professor Hedgethistle's Canonicity card allows the current round to go on and on and on and ... You can play the Burrahobbit's Soundbite card to restrict players to a one line answer to the current question. And, if you don't like the question, the Admin cards allow you to skip it and go to the next question. The Mod cards (Estelyn and Legolas) do the same thing - but only for certain questions. Play the Child and Pio cards to take the game into a special RPG round, or the Saucepan Man card to start a Quiz or Quotes round (extra jewels here if you have the Quotes of Guinevere or Lindolirian's Six Degrees of Separation cards). Fun for all the family. But if anyone starts taking it all seriously - remember it's just a game - it's the fun of taking part and the discussions that it engenders that count. ;) Warning: Requires a dangerously obsessive level of Tolkien-related knowledge. :smokin: Actually, that sounds like quite a fun game ... |

The Meela action figure comes complete with every single quote about Denethor in all of Tolkien's works and comes with matches and lighter fluid in case you get bored with it. :D |

Don't forget the limited edition Gil-Galad Pun cards, Gil-Galad Great Pun , you receive a jewel from every player, Gil-Galad pathetic puns, you lose a jewel to every player...its a game of chance for that!...well more 80/20 with my puns... 80 being good of course... |
And now I'm dropped/ from outer space. Now I come late into this topic.

Barrow-Downs Faction Badges - these will clearly indicate your loyalties in the Balrog Wings/Elven Ears debates. For those who are Pro-Wing, their badge will be like RAF Wings, except instead of being Albatross wings they will be blackened leathery Balrog wings; this is to be worn on the left shoulder. For those who are Anti-Wing they can actually get away without purchasing anything, because as in the debate, the badge will be purely metaphorical. The merest suggestion of a badge-pin hole in the lapel will suffice ;) The Ears Faction Badges will feature either a pointy or a non-pointy ear. Pro-Ear fanatics of course can buy an actual ear which they can wear proudly on their lapel; this will clearly indicate that not only are they Pro-Ear but they have also been driven quite mad with the debate and are under no circumstances to be approached.

Random Title...In need of a Super Hero....
This was inspired by Eomer of the Rohirrim:
Special Offer! When you buy the Morai Action Figure , you can send in the Proof of Purchase to recieve the X-Men Mutant Outfit when your dark action figure is tired of her usual personality and feels like saving the world...or not. Place the Morai Action Figure in the outfit and watch as she transforms into a whirlwind and scatters the all important papers on your desk, much too dizzy to do any heroic deeds. |
Morgy! I'm not that fangirlish...am I? :o

Quote:

Yeah, it's true. I should know....
*Eomer awaits slap in the face* Now that that's over, I think it seems likely as if a new line of accessories is going to come out. To complement the existing action figures of the Downers which look like, well, they look like, we will now have accessories which transform that same action figure into the image of other Downers. Get the Lalwende accessory, which turns your doll into a cloud of purple smoke! One hell of a party trick, let me tell you. Get The Only Real Estel accessory which promptly causes your action figure to disappear into nothingness! ;) Plus....many more!? :confused: |
What about Legolas Hair Powder? One pinch of which changed his hair from Blond to Black to Brown to Red to Blond to Black to Brown to Red?
Of course, we need to invent a Legolas doll first... |

Note: Legolas Hare Powder also work on any/all of Elmerf's myriad descendants.

Ok, I guess I am that fangirlish sometimes. *blushes*

I would love to see a Yavanna action figure.... with a little touches:
1. The hair must be BLACK, and no other 2. The eyes must be Grey 3. Wears the slim black gown I wore on my JS, or any formal blue floor-length dress 4. Says "I hate Chemistry" or "I loathe Geometry" or "Trigonometry Stinks" everytime a person with a Chem or Geom or Trigo artifact goes near it Hehe.... I wonder how I'd feel if my daddy will give me that.... :rolleyes: Accessories that I'd love: anti-chemistry posters and stuff black-framed glasses a black cloak a nice long sword Accessories that would not fit Yavanna II: that Legolas Hare thing....her wavy hair may turn straight...or worse, BLONDE! :eek: |
Quote:
Warning: Do not use on Agent Darkling/Morgul/Yavanna II. May cause horrible, unreversable hair crimes. They may end up looking more masculine than Orlando Bloom. O.o |
Hey, what's the matter with wavy blonde hair?
(Here, I have a commercial. Imagine it's said in a really cheesy deep voice, you know, like all those action figure commercials are.) Quote:

Yes. Croaking Keat's complete works.

Of course, no BD set would be complete without the MEGABARROW! You'll need somewhere to store all these action figures, won't you? Well, the MEGABARROW is the only product on the market that can house all of your action figures and make them feel right at home. The barrow even has separate rooms to keep the action figures who don't get along well away from each other and has a master suite for the mightiest of all toys, the BW action figure. (With Super Moderating Action!) And we cannot forget the amazing Barrow-Transfomers! Action Meela searches for open flames! Then just turn her head around and fold her body like so, and VIOLA! She becomes her true love, Denethor! Then there's Super Saucepan Man! Armed with a variety of cooking utensils and cloaked in mystery, Super Saucy comes to the rescue with a clanging of pans and the glint of sunlight upon steel. All who do evil shall feel the wrath of his flying saucepan of doom. |

Another slightly (or hopefully) brilliant idea: Do you ever tire of relentess unintelligent comments about your adored books conjured up by Tolkien himself? Don't you ever wish you couldn't hear those fools poking fun at LOTR? Now you can! Purchase the "BD'ER SOUND CANCELATION REMOTE" Batteries not included. |

The Barrow Balrog comes with detachable wings that you can leave on or take off as you prefer. Better yet, buy two so you can have one of each. Invite your friends over and stage battles between the Winged and Non-Winged versions.
And, as a special gift, there is the Action Button Activator/Deactivator Key. Use it to turn the wing motion on or off, giving you total freedom to have a Balrog with wings that work, or wings that are simply for show. |
The saucepan-man action figure, with permanent saucepan action. Frighten all your friends with his more than thee phrases including:
"Oh dear, my saucepan is stuck on my head!" "Balrogs DEFINATLY are not not unwinged." "Tom Bombadill is like this guy who is like this other guy who is kind 'a like the first guy but not." Sorry saucepan, there are just random things that I found amusing. :D |
