boromir12.jpgSpamalot didn’t happen because something so wonderously magnificent happened instead. One of the students located a HUGE comic store in Times Square and thought I’d like to go, and was he right! This Boromir figure just jumped ahead of my Fellowship set as my favorite item in Fandom Room. I’m so in love with it I think I could die. I also scored two SG-1 Figures. I wish they had had a Carter, but I was able to pick up the Colonel O’Neill (better looking that General, and slightly more so than Black Ops O’Neill) and Jaffa Warrior Teal’c, who just looks amazing!

Yes, it’s been a good day in NYC afterall. I’ll be home this time tomorrow, and I’m actually ready to get home ASAP.

I want to see Ben and Jesse (hopefully) on their way home from Dollywood and now that Coley is around, I want to talk to her some more, too! Shrader and I will need to hang out and, oh, you get the picture. :love:

Lord of the Rings Two Towers Series 5 Figure: Talking Balrog-Battle Gandalf I got my talking Gandalf today. He sounds just.like.movie.Gandalf. So much so, I got chills hearing him say, “YOU SHALL NOT PASS!” I love it. From the UK, I also received an item I would give up smoking for. It’s a Deluxe Gift Set of the entire Fellowship, all boxed up with a map of Middle Earth and the One Ring on a chain. Nine figures plus extras = really low price. Shipping from Essex = $70. Totally worth it, though. A loose Gimli I bought also arrived today. Once my Denethor, Lurtz, and Saruman arrive, I swear I’m not buying any more toys. Seriously.

Oh it’s good to be a geek.

Lord of the Rings Fellowship of the Ring Series 5 Figure: Council Legolas Ever since I started unintentionally collecting LOTR figures, I have scoured toy departments of every store I see. In the last year or so, it’s become increasingly difficult to find them. It makes sense, really, when you think that the film blitz is over and nearly every character has multiple incarnations already. But like a trooper, I haven’t given up. Imagine my glee then, in finding a NEW figure that I didn’t even know existed in my local KayBee Toystore! For the ridiculously low price of $3.99, I got a Council Legolas! I also picked up a spare Boromir at the same price (since I have, um, removed mine from the packaging…repeatedly). Through my loathe of Ebay, I even bid on, and won, a Denethor. Now all I have to do is win my Saruman and I’ll be so happy.

Yes, I am easy to please. I know it. We all know it. *g*

Lord of the Rings Fellowship of the Ring Series 5 Figure: Dark Galadriel This is just one of my items pre-ordered today. Let’s see, I got Dark Galadriel, Lothlorien pack, Eye of Sauron, and, oh yes, Boromir (with sound!).

The haircut is awesome. I love it. It’s chin-length with tons of choppy layers. Now that I have only one chin, I can wear it like this. *preens*
