I don't know what it is like in the card industry for movie & TV releases, but alot of sports figures don't like to sign anything anymore, and if they do it is limited because people turn around and sell there auto's for there own profit.

Many people bring a stack of photo's, or pucks, jerseys, etc and hound them to sign and turn around and sell them.   That is all some people do for a living.  I would love to get some personal auto's and would likely keep any or all for personal collection or trade.

I know cards are a little different, but many stars in sporting cards only sign small amounts because of the hassle and they get paid to sign these cards, but the are not obligated either!

Roz, thanks for offering to ask LM personally if he was asked to sign.  I think our disappointments should be split between Topps and the Cast.

After all most of them weren't even a blip on the radar screen before the fans embraced LOTR's! (aside from most notably Sir Ian and Liv).

For those who can't bear to wait whilst the page loads Tongue

- Viggo Mortensen
(Aragorn & King Elessar)
- Liv Tyler (Arwen)
- John Noble (Denethor)
- Karl Urban (Éomer)
- David Wenham (Faramir)
- Bret McKenzie (Figwit)
 - Bruce Hopkins (Gamling)
- Stephen Ure (Gorbag)
- Noel Appleby (Everard Proudfoot)
- Sala Baker (Sauron)
- Bernard Hill (Théoden)
- Ian Holm (Bilbo)
- Billy Boyd (Pippin)

What a surprise - the new and exciting signer is Everard Proudfoot - wow!

That's so much better than a Wormtongue card!

 :'( - for those who don't know me -  I AM LYING!

Anyway - if you are already missing the "ring design" of the previous auto sets - I DO like the design of the memorabilia card!


 

Come on Roz.... be fair......... The boy Figgy is signing again  :'( :'(
