If I remember correctly New Line Cinema had to sign off all the work done by Games Workshop so, like you, I shall find the release of a range of corresponding miniatures hard to resist; particularly trolls and a Smaug!Michael Awdryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049982879661559305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-18280167356209446282012-02-15T16:39:16.250+13:002012-02-15T16:39:16.250+13:00Yes no doubt I'm along for the ride...

He's had several goes at reading The Hobbit novel, and usually gets part way in before something else distracts his young mind... He picks up LOTR too and read bits from it but I think its an intimidating book for a young reader...At the present he's started taking "Perilous Realms" to school to read in his break times...Scottswargaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00581220877007982139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-45020685148669806272012-02-15T16:17:01.229+13:002012-02-15T16:17:01.229+13:00I'm glad to hear that you may not be giving up...I'm glad to hear that you may not be giving up on LotR SBG after all Scott. It's a great system and except for a few notable sculpts, GW has managed to capture the look and essence of the movies quite well. I can only imagine what they have in store for The Hobbit. <br /><br />My greatest hope is that the next two movies will rekindle the fervor that was so pervasive during the heyday of the game back in the early 2000's. I miss those days terribly and look forward to having others ride the LotR "bandwagon" with me again. I also look forward to seeing more of your work in the realm of Tolkien! <br /><br />Hang on! It's gonna be a great ride!Blackwardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15071644608526918072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-38761698272940294242012-02-15T15:19:42.188+13:002012-02-15T15:19:42.188+13:00While the LoTR movie trilogy is wonderful and I en...While the LoTR movie trilogy is wonderful and I enjoy it very much, my favorite remains the books.<br /><br />I do hope that you have introduced your son to the books as well since there is so much rich and wonderful material that could not be included in the movies.<br /><br /><br />-- JeffBluebear Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05171345165563779232noreply@blogger.com
