Any figure company can make characters from LOTR and the other works. They just can't use the Tolkien names for the figures. So, if GW stops making figures it will not really effect me at all. Some of the fan base has been brainwashed into the "if it's not GW you can't use it" mentality. Having been doing figure gaming for 40 odd years we used substitute figures all the time in the old days. The rules work the same with any figure makers miniatures.
no, no they can't. There's copyright laws the prohibit such things, and liscencing agreements etc.
But of course you can use other companies models as substitutes, they're just not going to look the same. Myself I have been working with the Perry Twins War of The Roses line, and Fireforge miniatures for conversions and fiefdom variants. But that's just blending them in with the Gw line. Not trying to replace it.
