This is odd - I almost missed this when I was waiting for the king of the dead... but as Jas requested :D I have put all the details up for KOTD and this one.. :)

As I've said before I am a sideshow newbie... but what previous items have been "TBD"? I know the newborn Uruk was... but were Sauron and the Morgul Lord also limitless for a while?

I'm probably going to be cursed by the WETA gods for this but he has a GONDORIAN SOLDIER in his hand...look at this...

A crushed Gondorian helm??

So will the Gondorian chappie have a metal outer or will it be polystone to look like metal do you think?

(as I said, I am a WETA newbie)

I am guessing it will just look metal.  Usually only the metal helm collections are made of metal.

Ahh thanks for that - it's a bit of a shame... so I guess that counts for the KOTD helm too.

Hmm :(

Ya, They usually don't mix polystone with metal to much, some of them have swords that are made out of a different softer more durable material, but I would be surprised to see metal used on any of these, does anyone know of one of the Weta statues that mixed polystone and metal?

Thanks for your help and guidance guys :)

I still love this Troll though - although its small I think I prefer it to KOTD :D
