We’re pleased to team up with our friends at Sideshow Collectibles to give away one of their finest pieces ever. This piece has long been sold out so this contest is a great chance to win one of the best representations of Gandalf the Grey to be put on the market. The giveaway starts today September 1st and will run through September 15th at midnight Pacific Standard Time. Having seen this item in person I highly suggest not passing on a chance to enter and win this fantastic Middle-earth collectible.

Earlier this week this very cool Mini-Ringwraith went up for orders and some of you are starting to have him appear in your collections. I was lucky enough to purchase mine during Comic-Con 2014 and now that he’s available for folks to purchase I thought it was a good time to review this little guy. These mini-statues are a really neat line by Weta as they allow folks to acquire their masterful work at a price that works for any collectors budget. Collectors can snag the Ringwraith right now, which is in-stock for only $75.

Win tickets: Show us your #MiddleEarthLife
Put on your favorite Middle-earth “lifestyle” and upload the best photo of yourself living a #MiddleEarthLife! We are looking for more than just costumes; show us how a Ranger, an Elf of the Woodland Realm, a Dwarf, or a happy Hobbit might enjoy their leisure time at home (or even in the garden). Even Wizards, Orcs, Eagles, or shape-shifting bear men can try their hand at this contest. One winner will receive a pair of tickets to the August 30 LOTR Trilogy screening at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica.
Imagine if Esquire or Vanity Fair magazines came by to do a “lifestyle interview” of you as a Middle-earth character — what kind of image would be shown as a splash page for your interview? Whether you are shown sporting, relaxing, cooking, gardening, or even other activities like horseback riding or climbing trees to see huge purple butterflies, we are looking for fandom to show us their creativity!
Use hashtag #MiddleEarthLife when you submit your images to Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. Feel your creativity flow and show us what your lifestyle is like as a character in a casual, fun setting. We will judge entries on how creative the costuming, how appealing the setting, and how closely it ties to the theme. You have until 12:00pm (PST) Wednesday, August 27, 2014, to post your submissions, and the winner will be notified by Thursday, 8/28.
Be sure to use the hashtag #MiddleEarthLife and tell us about your entry!
