Da skorpion,

yes, very nice, but these are TOYS we're talking about here, not figures you would display and perhaps collect.

My six year old loves them. Especially the Mouth of Sauron set I got him the other day.

PS Now, to go against what I've just said (ie the toys as collectables) I saw a 'Hama' figure in woolworths at the weekend. I vaguely remember someone saying that he was pretty rare a few months back, so I picked him up for £5.99

If he's worth nothing, then my six year old has another toy to play with. If I'm right, then Ebay here I come!

PPS I got my bonus this week, so I treated myself to the sideshow statue of the Witch King with his mace. Now, THAT's what you call a detailed figurine! (But then it did cost me £160 compared to £5.99!!!!!!!!!!!)
