Yes, samrohan, it looks like a lead wargaming figure to me too. As such, it may or may not be official. I suspect that it's not official as I doubt that New Line would allow the image to be used prior to the release of the film. Then again, I did see the Treebeard action figure in the shops last year before seeing TTT ...<P>But even if this is an indication of what she might look like in the film, I trust (and sincerely hope) that she will look infinately more "lifelike" on the screen. Those legs and the knobbly abdomen are very unconvincing. And it looks like they've given her a "humanoid" head, which I'm not sure about at all.<P>All in all, I'm still expecting much better from the film. But thanks for posting this, Gorwingel.
