Re: Balrog
Expect images and a "Making of" Feature on Balrog in next month's issue of Tomart's Action Figure Digest. We will reveal images and hopefully more details by Comic-Con. The Balrog is massive and unbelievably cool - he is also very expensive in his present form. We are working on various methods of manufacturing and engineering to reduce the costs. We want to make Balrog affordable for everyone without comprimising the size, scale and features.

Thanks

And thank you 316 for the info.

I think no matter the price, this is one that I would get.

There are a couple of things that just appeal adn fit into the colletion too well to pass up.

Once is this, the other is the Millinium Falcon for Star Wars.

Balrog is the only LOTR figure I'm getting.

Hopefuly they can get it down into the $60 range without sacrificing the awesome scale and features.

The petroleum prices are really making plastic expensive lately though [img]frown.gif[/img]
