Very cool :D


Fantastic model, the same can be said for the rest of their range.

That said, whilst the latest sculpt of Gandalf by GW (the one in the FC set with Bilbo) is (in my opinion) the worst they've done by far, both the Khazad-Dum and Rivendell sculpts are truly awe-inspiring.

Cheers,
Gandalf :gandalf:

I couldn't agree with the last statement, whilst the khazad dum gandalf is awesome, the rivendell one is pretty darn poor on a anatomical level, he has one hell of a hyper-extended left elbow, fat fingers and dismal amounts of facial detail.

Thanks for the photo Quendil, just awaiting my Bilbo...... looks fabulous. Now all I need is one of every Hobbit figure to this standard in metal and it might just re-allign my current thirst for oldHammer figures..... or maybe not :)

Toodle pip!

My brother and I are trading back and forth for OldHammer figures. That was the golden age. 8)
