As I'm constantly adding to my ever growing collection of GWs The lord of the Rings miniatures in an attempt to gauge how abscessed I am with the hobby, please take a moment to fill out the poll above.

Hope this isn't a repeat of something done before, if so please point me towards the link and ignore this post...

Thank you all for you time :)

My collection is between 500-600 models with 200 of them being painted. I hope to be done purchasing most of my wishlist by the end of this year, so I'll be just left with buying 2 Mumakils & Mordor Troll in the future. I can wait for The Hobbit models to come out. I'll gladly wait two years, I have a whole backlog of Lotr models to paint through.

I have my whole collection listed on excel, so I can e-mail it to you if you wish to see it.

I probably just barely top 500, which is what I voted, but only if I count a bunch of non-LotR figures that I only use for WotR. I have a bunch of Warhammer spiders and a few wolves I use in my moria army as well as a dragon, giant, more spiders and some giant eagles from D&D miniatures.

Oh, and a Warhammer Araknorok that is going to serve as a Mumak for my moria army as well.

I would like to see a picture of that. And I guess you would use rules similar to a mumakil.

Most of mine are from BGIME. I also have a small metal gondor fiefdoms force, quite a few boxes of rohan infantry and cavalry, and about seven Gandalfs. In short, far more than I'll ever paint.

I'll post pictures when I finally get it built. I am saving it as a final reward for getting my Moria army painted. And yeah, in game it will just be a counts-as allied Mumak.

595 as a most recent count over a wide selection of armies. Most are painted. I'm at a buying freeze because the rest of life is starting to cost too much.
It's amazing how things around the house all break at the same time...

About 720. Just flipped thru my spreadsheets really quick and tried to total things up. I'm 100% sure everything I have is captured on this list but it probably covers most of it. I may have another couple sprue of warriors or some command blisters scattered around that I never entered in. About half to 2/3 is probably backlog.

Fellowship – whole set 2 times plus a couple extras

Royal Knights 6
RoR 42
WoR 56
Rohan Heroes / Command 8

Wood Elves 90+
Galadrhim 30
Sentinels 9
Elf Heroes/Command 12

Dwarves
Dwarf Warriors 48
Dwarf Scouts 12
Dwarf Heroes / Command 5

Treebeard 1
Ents 2


Mordor Orcs 72
Morannon Orcs 48
Mordor Uruk Hai 18
Wargs / Wargriders 36
Ghostly Legions 28
Specters 6
Giant Spiders 6
Spider Queens 2
Mordor Troll 3
Catapult + Troll 1
Mordor Heroes / Command 12

Haradrhim 28
Serpent Raiders 12
Serpent Riders 5
Mumuk 1
Harad Heroes / Command 5

Fighting Uruk Hai 35
Uruk Hai Scouts 48
Uruk Hai Crossbows 9
Berzerkers 6
Isengard Troll 1
Siege Bow 1
Isengard Heroes / Command 5

...went back last night and checked my cupboard and found a Captured by Gondor and a couple boxes of plastic Rangers that I forgot about. Still not enough to push me into the next bracket but up over the 750 mark easily.

Thank you to all that have posted replies and found the time to "tick" the poll. I'm relived that I'm not the only one that uses a spreadsheet to keep track of his purchases... And also I'm not as addicted as i first thought :D

Worried though with how he Finecast thing will change things... Oh well we can't stop progress, right?

Having not counted for a while, I must be around the 700 mark with at least 200 still to paint.

Too many and yet curiously, not enough...


Definately in the 3k plus bracket, although, actual number is undetermined.

It is not about keeping score :!:
Is every one still enthusiastic about your collection? Are many of you near finished?

I am not so long in the hobby - so i am still got lots to collect. I try to limit myself tough. I don't want to end up with heaps of figures and never paint them up. I don't got much money left to spend. But still doing it... My sister recently said she never saw me giving out so much money. Ah well Sauron should be in the mail soon. I ordered a moria display and Eowyn. There are some pieces i still want to add like Arwen mounted witouth Frodo, fellbeast,..
It's just addicting to buy new ones... (or mostly second handed :rofl: ).
