Just wondering what a decent price for these would be? I was wondering whether to get a set of these or another LOTR or HP autograph. For those of you that have them, are they worth what you paid for them? What are they like? I know that some of you have them signed, but as no conventions will ever take place in Oz, that will never be an option for me  so it will be just a pretty display on my shelf. There is a seller with them at $80AUD or about 30 pounds atm. What do you think? |

I guess you mean the new blue cased QVC ones?
Do whatever your heart tells you but it IS a nice set, do you have the first QVC set? If so you shouldn't miss out on it - if you don't I wouldn't start now.
MPC has them on ebay for buy it now £39.99 - anyone seen a better deal?

Ben that was the green set - you are out of date  The blue set is £39.99 - £40! not £30 I am afraid! |

Noooooooooooooooooo keep a FOTR auto liek Pippin or Sam instead of selling for the lithos - they are nice but not that nice! (unless you get the signed and individualised ) |

Sorry guys, I meant the green one with Legolas, Gimli, Gollum, Boromir, Arwen, Saruman, Gandalf and Frodo (can't remember the last one off the top of my head)

Sorry - do you mean the science museum set with the dark backgrounds or do you mean the QVC set with the cream backgrounds? So many Litho sets - so many complications |

oooh yeah those ROCK! Those were the ones we were trying to have a Sam one made to match  If I were you I'd snap them up - but ask Gimli/MPC if they can get you a set first - we have just bought a set for a certain savage forum members birthday! (but there are 3 other lithos that match this set available only from the science museum - look here: http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/exhibitions/lordoftherings/Store_contents.aspSmeagol, Galadriel and The WitchKing are only available from those guys! |

That might be an idea, but if you factor in postage etc, it would be cheaper getting these ones... they seem to have an endless supply. So unless MPC/Gimli can offer the set plus postage for 35 pounds...  I also want the new set with Eowyn and Faramir etc as well - is that the blue set you mentioned? |

Yes the Eowyn set is the Blue (latest) QVC set
