It's the polystone figure. The dvd was just them making the figure and tons of other figures but I thought it was pretty interesting.

I have Sam and Bill, and Frodo, as far as Polystone figures go. They are so detailed, I can't get over it. Your Gollum is from Sideshow Toy?

Yeah, on the dvd they took you inside the Side-show factory and showed you how they made the figures and made caseings of all the actors faces and neat things like that.

I had a collectible item given to me today that is not from LotR, but does have to do with the Downs, since it involves my avatar - a Fiona (ogre version) PEZ dispenser!

Well Samwise Ive actually won it at least a dozen times, it quite easy.

Very cool, Miss Estelyn. Sounds right up your alley, if you follow me.

LOL, wilwarin....easy unless you're video game inept, like me.

Hey, Stacey, been a while since I posted here, but I've been trying to cut back...although not very successfully. Those expansion packs look great--I don't have any of the Return of the King or the Elves. Maybe I need to scope out ebay for more cards...

The only things new for me are a couple of 3 figure sets in the 3-inch figures:

Fighting Fellowship with Fighting Gimli, Fighting Aragorn & Fighting Legolas

The Capture of Sméagol which has a Gondorian Ranger Bowman (with hood & mask), Faramir (wearing his White Tree leather tunic), and Sméagol/Gollum (crouching & complete with fish)

I think I have previously mentioned that I have the RotK video game for my pc. I have played the dang thing for hours and hours and hours, and I canNOT get beyond Level I. It's very frustrating! However, my 8 year old grandson, after a mere 45 minutes or so, was into Level III for Aragorn and Level II for Gandalf!!

**totally unfair**

There is a little video located in the menu of the game called "Hobbits on Gaming", which interviews Dom, Billy & Elijah on playing video games. Billy made a quote at the very end which I felt was extremely appropriate for me. He said: "I think I have a special gift for gaming. I just haven't opened it up and given it to myself yet."

Stacey, maybe we should just open up that gift and give it to ourselves, too!!
