: I declare the Topps LOTR board... dead.

Seriously, when I joined the board when I started collecting (TT set) and when TT, TTU and ROTK came out, I struggled to keep up with the posts. Now if there is 1 post a day, thats lucky.

Somehow feel we have taken away alot of their clientele  :o

Rubbish, I still go on there - what more do you want  ::)

I didn't mean to take away from their clientelle and as you know there has been hardly any topps LOTR card talk in here  :-\

*cough*

I would say that people will follow people .. I certainly did ...

These boards are open to LOTR and Potter so if its in peoples interests they will come over here ...

Also topps did block the potter talk ..  :-[

LOL, I meant that in a good way, this is a much better board where we can talk about anything without risking the wrath of the company labels *cough* Topps *cough*

Yes, well as long as you are not too rude about Mark's comics then I am sure you will be welcome to talk about anything on here!

Well anything fit for LOTR fans and HP fans to talk about; nothing to frightening like -
     who would win in a fight:

     Gandalf or Dumbledore

     BECAUSE I'M SORRY IT HAS TO BE GANDALF!!!!

Me, rude? Never!  People in Oz are known for their friendliness etc. Unless you are talking about cricket/rugby ;)

Gandalf, by far. The 'wielder of the flame of Arnor' really wins it for me.
Though Dumbledore rocks as well.

Though I gotta ask... what would these two fight about anyway? I would prefer to see 'em on the same side in a real fight  ;)

That's an excellent point, either they would go for a Butterbeer in Hogsmeade, or Gandalf would offer Dumbleydore a swig of that elvish stuff they they had in FOTR which they drank to make them all feel better in the mines of Moria!

Defiently i think Roz is to blame  ::), I'm playing Roz  ;D. I like the topps board but mainly for trades and promoting ebay listings. Certainly topps gives you freedom of speech, but only to a certain extent unlike this forum. I hope for this forum to become crowded, and watch Roz collapse under the pressure of being a MOD  ;)

Damn i'm evil  :P

Agree.. you can basically say anything that is on your mind here... which at the moment isn't much. Usually its not much either  ;)

I am glad for this new forum.  I was getting sick of the topps forum.  I just wish that someone else would have had the power to make all the Lord of the Rings sets.  Topps did a good job, but I can only imagine how nice it would have been if Inkworks, or Rittenhouse would have done it.  We might have seen more of the autographs we want (like wormtongue and Sauron) instead of Figwit and Mark Ordesky. Oh well, beggers can't be chooosers.

I am sorry but I find that rather obviously Sauron.

His evil spread over entire countries. He had armies (not a few measley death eaters) and not to mention a ring that once in his hand made him impervious to just about anything.

That's not to say that it wouldn't be tough for Gandalf to beat Voldermort but if Harry can do it - Gandy can do it!

I wouldn't say Harry beat Voldemort... more was quite lucky. But there can only be one person that can kill Voldemort isn't that what the prophecy said? 'The one who has the power to vanquish the Dark Lord... etc'. So technically Gandalf couldn't do it.

But then technically, Gandalf should not have been able to come back to life either after the Balrog fight. Hmmm.... ???

Sorry FTY I am thinking at the end where either Harry or Voldermort MUST DIE

(Go Harry Go!)
