I really need to get one. Whenever I'm wearing one of my normal rings, I start turning into Gollum, calling it my precious and such. I also have started calling many things, especially my computer and my LOTR books, my precious. Where can you find them?

Arwen, they have it on the Barrow Downs. On the home page, look in the top right and click the 'Barrow Treasures" icon. They also have it at www.noblecollection.com and several other places.

I need to get one too...I've been calling all my rings and stuff "my precious" [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I've even been thinking about renaming my computer "Precious" [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Arwen1858, you could also possibly search on Ebay to find copies of the One Ring that you could order. Ebay is almost always very reliable. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Ah, since I'm incredibly cheap, I just wear the phony One Ring that comes with the special LOTR bookmarks. I have it on my finger right now, in fact. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I like the ring but I really want an elvin broach. I'm hoping for one for Christmas. It fits my personality better I really want to be one of the Fellowship, plus I have always liked trees and leaves so it's perfect.

Somehow, a Ring that symbolizes the embodiment of evil just isn't my style. I'll stick with my dear Sam and Bill and my absolutely hilarious "Arms of the Hobbits", thanks. Just today I recieved the book "A Bad Case of Stripes" (unfortunately, in Spanish), but I can always go to my bookmarked website and listen to it being read by Sean Astin....AKA SAM... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Sigh....

Well, Sam., The idea of ANOTHER one Ring dosen't appeal to me, but Cahira has fallen in love with a certian LOTR ring by the name of Vilya, the ring of air, the one help by ELrond. And I must admit, I like that one!

I got the applause ring as well. But a while back I made my own one ring with a ring I found at Delia's (It's actually fits me!) It's on a silver chain and has it's place of honor among the rest of the mass of Tolkien stuff I have been trying to collect since the movie came out. ( I got the Legolas figure from the Two Towers - he rocks! ^_^; )

Doesn't he though? This Legolas is one of the best Lord of the Rings figures yet. Amazing detail work on them this time around. ^^ I want to open him and play with the bow and arrow, but *sigh*. I must keep him whole. I wonder if I could convince my friends to get me a second....¬_¬

Oh, take the poor thing out of the box! He won“t do any good in there! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I tried the bow on my figure and it went all over the room and one of my cats went after it! Hehe... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Hmm...I can't seem to be able to find any ring that I can afford,I do have the bookmark one though,but it kept making my finger green so...
I think if I got a [real] ring it would be the silver one,cuz I don't look too good in gold [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] has anyone seen a really inexpensive dragon ring???????? if so, where (and it can't be online)

My sis has THE ONE RING, and the Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Bilbo, Strider and an orc figures. they are soooo much fun to play with. Ahem. hehehe. She's 20.
I really really really want the Legolas figure from FOTR, but I can't find it anywhere now, not even on ebay! [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] I searched the whole of Edinburgh when I went for a shopping trip. I searched the whole of Blackpool when we went on holiday there. NOTHING. Oh well, I'll just go any buy the TTT Legolas. I agree with Samwise, I have no desire for an evil ring. Although I do recall writing a funny little fiction piece with my sister about a miniature Mount Doom destroying an evil ring...hehehe [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [ November 03, 2002: Message edited by: Ainalondwen ]

Ainalondwen, look up Lord of the Rings action figure and you should find one. I have seen plenty of them up there. And not bad prices either. Just keep looking! :-)

Well, I want to get Glamdring or Narsil from the Noble Collection...somehow, I got on their mailing list and now I have a catolog full of LotR merchandise. Isn't it weird how they can have Narsil (eg, the hilt and about 1/6 of the blade), but not Andśril?
It's also funny how there are about 4 different "One Ring" sets, and how you can never get 2 items that belonged specifically to 1 character (you can get Gimli's axe and....nothing. You can get Glamdring, but not Narya [even though you can get Nenya and Varya]). Weeeeeeeeeeeeee. ---------------- This message has been brought to you by the campaign for Real Time.

Other stuff like that (replicas of Nenya, Galadriel's Ring) are available at Newline's Official Lord of the Rings store.
I might get a Ring, but like dear little Sam said, it DOES after all symbolize evil. I'm only a teen, so I can't get a good sword from Noble Collection or Arms of Valour for a while yet. I'm sticking an Elvish broach on my Christmas list though!!

If you're looking for figures and the like, Sideshow Toy has some nice things.
ie: My Sam and Bill. I have "The Arms of the Hobbits", now , too, but no pics! [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] [ November 03, 2002: Message edited by: Samwise ]

I have the Ring from the bookmark. It is still attached to the tassel, and that is where it shall stay. (BTW It's the Bilbo bookmark, so it can be used in the Hobbit and LotR with equal relevance. Well, not equal...but whatever.)

Thank you for all the suggestions, I will endeavour to find my little Legolas (heehee).
Maybe I will start looking for Nenya, I'd like that more than an evil ring.

Heehee, I have the Ring, but the one I really want is the Witchking's Ring. Has anyone here seen it? Way too cool. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] AND I do tend to call it "my precious", along with my copy of The Trilogy, and my sword, Sting (yes, the one from the movie [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]), which I got for my birthday (heh, how ironic is that? preciousssss)

You know, you can find a lot of these rings in the Barrowdowns store itself.

Try the The Noble Collection for the Witchking's ring. A friend of my sister had the DVD coupon book, and it was in there. But gross, 'tis almost worse than the One Ring!

o.O I guess we're kind of lucky when it comes to LotR stuff in NZ because we get most of the stuff...and I DESPERATELY want to win the 22CT ring....but that'd probably take me 50 bars worth of Caramello bars to win it...I don't know much about the action figures and toys etc. but stationary, board games, books (like the movie rada rada), the ring..there's the silver one too....but meh...I have really tanned skin and silver makes me look too dark, adn well we don't really need to go on the net.. ^^;; MEEP!
I also want Arwent's pendant...well I could want everything and be a collector of some sort...but I doubt my pocket money would let me -.-"

I got my elf!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
I brought him home, freed him from his bonds, and started playing with his bow and arrows [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] I (accidently) fired one at my sis, then decided to see how far they could go, so I fired one out the door...then spent 10 minutes searching for it, only to find it had ricocheted back into the room (ho hum). Still looking for a ring.
