there has been some naff looking promo material and some wonderful promo posters, I find the scrolls to be the very best, both of them. The first scroll showing the various scenes and the second scroll showing the Dwarves,Bilbo and Gandalf, it was fabulous. The characters truly came alive. Then on the negative side I really disliked another set of photos from a calendar I think (cant remember exactly) with naff looking photoshop effects. Its like some is from LOTR 10 years ago and is top notch, and some is from a 1 dollar store, same with the figurines, the stuff from Weta is amazingly good, and the other stuff a bit second rate, its like the studio has lost quality control.
