Wish List - What collectibles/replicas do you wish existed? Can't Post

So there's a great selection of collectibles and replicas out there, but there is also a lot that remains unobtainable. So what do you wish you could buy?

Here's my list:

1. Replica - The Arkenstone (I'm sure it's only a matter of time)

2. Replica - Galadriel's Phial (The current one is poor IMO)

3. Replica - Sam's Saltbox

4. Statue - Carrot Man (PJ's cameo)

I also think it would be cool if Weta did dioramas of things we don't see in the movies. How about these...

5. Diorama - Mines of Moria (Balin and co. fighting in the mines)

6. Diorama - Hunt for Gollum

7. Diorama - Beorn in Dol Guldur

8. Statue - Ghan Buri Ghan

9. Statue - Elladan and Elrohir

10. Statue - Tom Bombadil

What do you think?

Bibo's Mantle Clock (functional) [In reply to] Can't Post

I agree that Beorn's chess set is a no-brainer.

The Talking Purse (because we all know that someone was going to mention it eventually so we might as well get it over with!).

everyday objects [In reply to] Can't Post

I only want items used by characters in the movies (or even glimpsed in the background).
A few I can think of offhand (assuming I win the Mega Millions and could actually afford to buy these):

-- Theoden's throne
-- Bilbo's mother's glory box. Anything in Bag End!
-- The banners hanging behind Theoden's throne
-- The tapestry hanging on the wall of Meduseld (Eorl?)
-- the metal (pewter?) plate & goblet that Denethor eats from
-- a palantir -- a working one would be nice ;-)
-- a lock of Thorin's hair (but I think I would have to fight armies of Thorin thralls led by Avandel). And, of course, I do NOT want a "replica"!

off the top of my head [In reply to] Can't Post

1. I wish Hot Toys would do a deluxe version of Thorin. Bilbo and the dwarves would be a plus.
2. Thorin's BOFA sword.
3. Carved wooden boxes from WETA with dwarf and elves versions.
4. Bilbo' s leaf teapot and mugs from AUJ.
5. A cloth version of the tapestry.
6. Jewelry charms with motifs from the movies.

Great list! [In reply to] Can't Post

I wish they had made a figure of Pippin in his Shire clothes. I have the Hobbits (including Sam w/Bill the Pony), and Pippin is the only one not in Shire clothes and pose. He's in battle stance facing the Nazgul after Gandalf fell in RotK while wearing Faramir's Gondor uniform.

I really want a statue of Bilbo and Gandalf sitting beside each other at the end of BotFA. It gets me every time I see it.

And I'd dearly love to have a replica of Frodo's Shire cloak and suspenders. I've always loved that cloak, and I saw the suspenders at the travelling Exhibit when it was in Indianapolis. A woven pattern of blues and tans. Just lovely.

A statue of Frodo and Sam on the rocks above the lava-flow would also be great!
