Helen writes: A magazine I was reading recently had a one line mention of the LOTR exhibition coming back for another showing at Te Papa, Wellington NZ, next year. I hadn’t heard about that happening so I emailed Te Papa and asked for confirmation. I thought some of your readers might be interested in their reply – the relevant parts are below:
“Thank you for your e mail requesting information about the Lord of the Rings exhibition. I am pleased to advise you that the Lord of the Rings exhibition will open at Te Papa on Good Friday 14th April and closes on 20th August 2006. May I suggest that you visit our website which is up dated on a regular basis and will feature more details about the exhibition when they are to hand.
I do hope you find this information helpful.”

Well, we woke up this Christmas morning to a HUGE announcement from Sideshow Collectibles. Sideshow has announced they are now going to be producing 12-inch figures for The Lord of the Rings. This means, for those people who didn’t have the money to collect polystone, you can now get your hands on some kick-butt figures! If you are familiar with Sideshow’s 12-inch figure line-up, then you know why we are so excited about this announcement! For complete details, follow the link – and Happy Holidays! [Click Here]
