Alatariel - I have now officially become addicted to collecting those figures! You were correct! They are just so detailed I can't resist them.

Now, one thing I did buy today and can recommend to you folks is a set of 10 Tolkien UK Royal Mail postage stamps, featuring Tolkien's own artwork. They are very nice indeed, very, um, classy (I hate that word). I think they were issued last month. Buy them, they only cost around £2.80! I would scan them and post a piccy but it might be against the law or something.
Lalwendė: I have to say 'I told 'ee so Sam'...Those figures are fantastic, aren't they? I love them.

I don't know if those stamps are available here in the States, but they do sound classy. Why can't our post office issue LotR stamps like other countries do? Maybe we should start a petition?
