Yep, that's most definitely the rare Lurtz.

Hey guys, I need your help! I just found this Isengard bunch on ebay: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Lord-of-the-Ring ... 258186d655 Is the second mini from the right really the rare Lurtz? Or is it the Amon Hen version? Or even a simple Uruk archer? Help is appreciated as I dont want to bid only for minis, that I already have.. ^^ |

It does look the part, as far as I can see the bow arm is outstretched which would be the rare lurtz |

I'd be 99% sure it's the sexy rare Lurtz. His right arm is up by his face and on the Amon Hen version it's down on his quiver. Might have been a mistake drawing it to the attention of a forum full of collectors though  Quick, delete the thread!

Thank you guys, you've been a great help! Fëanor, the mighty elf wrote: Yep, that's most definitely the rare Lurtz. All metal Uruk-hai Scout archers that are shooting their bow, have a helmet. Of course they have helmets.. d'oh >< I hadn't thought of that, haha...

I hope it was not a mistake! ^^ I believe in the honesty and fairness of the members of this great community here, to let me have that chance.. but then again, there always is a spark of greed isn't there my preciousssss?  Though, the seller only delivers within Germany, so my chances might not shrink too drastically if I post this in an UK-based forum. (Although I know I am not the only German around here )

Seeing that I now realise: I actually owned a rare Lurtz once. I also realise that I destroyed one by converting it into a Mordor Uruk. Finally, I realise I am sad because of the above realisation. |

Ouch... that's sad indeed.  Was it a good conversion at least? Maybe you have a photo? |

It seems a certain 'Rognarr' got his hands on this Lurtz and consider himself a lucky one-ringer now?!

'twas a terrible conversion, and a paintjob to match. No photos (fortunately). I wasn't exactly experienced in the hobby back then. |
