Peter Jackson’s production company has cast doubt on the authenticity of one of the world’s largest collections of Lord of the Rings memorabilia. American Troika Brodsk has been advertising in New Zealand papers for items used in the production of the trilogy – and the upcoming Hobbit prequels.
Brodsk believes he has the largest private collection of Lord of the Rings props in the world – between 25 and 30 pieces. He says he already owns Gimli’s axe and Eowyn and Aragorn’s swords but his most expensive purchase is Frodo’s sword, Sting. More..
Sideshow Collectibles is now shipping the ‘Battle of the Last Alliance’ Sauron vs. Numenorean Army Diorama. As the name implies, the dynamic diorama features the Dark Lord Sauron swinging his mace as the valiant Numenorean Army goes flying. Having just received this piece myself, I must say, the description does not do justice for the scale and action contained within in it. If you have any interest in the Last Alliance battle sequence from Fellowship of the Ring, this piece perfectly captures one of the more dramatic moments. Sideshow is also hosting their annual Fantacular where you can get a free promo item with the purchase of instock collectibles. Check it all out at SideshowCollectibles.com. If you do end up owning this piece, please take a moment to share your thoughts in our forum! [Battle of Last Alliance Diorama] [Sideshow Fantacular]
