ah...my favorite Lurtz! He has found a home!

He has found a foster home Sad   My wife is the one that pulled it (she has loved opening this set, and when I showed her what your other Uruk color went for on ebay she suggested we sale it and buy 2 more cases. And she usually doesn't get excited about card sets, so I couldn't fight her on it. I am sure it will find a good home (hopefully permenant).  So it is officially listed on that evil site (  Ebay! )  Free shipping to any yak shak member who wins it. I am trying to sort through the rest with my wife to decide what will acutally become part of my collection, its hard Sad

I will have to do some scanning Wed here is the best out of my last case I opened. No GG, Cat or CC in my last case tonight, but I did get a Cat and CC in the one before it so one of each of yours now ladies none of yours YET Grant.  I will make sure I post my sketches of the CC and Cat I pulled Wed.

Ok, so my scanner is on "vacation", so for now descriptions will have to do until I can get scans up, probably tomorrow night..

From on box I got a sketch of an orc, side view, by Paul Gutierrez and a Mary Mitchell of the top of the tower bearing the eye of sauron.
Box two yielded only one sketch, a fantastic image of gandalf holding his staff up, from the scene outside of moria. The artist for this card appears to be Brian Rood. Its gorgous, so Im really not fussed about it being the only card in the box.  Grin

I think it will start drying up pretty soon, as box and case prices seem to be making a move upward, and you don't see too many of either on ebay.  I just contacted my distributor and he has a few more cases at $38 a box, so I am going to snag them up, as I am having too much fun opening these!!

Thanks for the info Zach.  I had a feeling we were headed towards the drought.  Good luck with your next set of cases.  Can't wait to see what you pull.  How long before you get them from your source?

Here are the top 4 (other than the Galadriel in the last case I opened last night).  Well at least the most interesting I think. 


At first I thought oh not a Matt Busch (nothing against him personally, but I have more than enough of his SW heritage sketches as I think he did literally thousands) then I checked the LOTR sketch site and his are very limited in this set and the Frodo is nice.

I really like that Booth Boromir.  If I'm reading the sigs correctly you've also got two Tom Hodges - both of which are VERY cool...

Ooooooooo that was a good case Dave - those are fab sketches!!
I've been trying to get a Busch sketch and failed dismally so if ever you get fed up of looking at that one of Frodo then you know who to contact!! Wink Grin
The Boromir is a beaut too .. in fact I wouldn't have said no to any of them!! Grin

Jackie - good luck with your five boxes and please let us know what you get won't you!? Grin

The Mount Doom one is Frampton I believe Wink
