While 'Dead rider of Dunharrow on dead horse' was supposed to be a good guy I made a mistake and placed him in the Bad Guy section (probably due to him being undead). Sorry about that. Still it proves good guys don't finish last.  He swept to victory in the last round. Now with only 2 entries it will be a serious test to gather the support to win the 2nd round. Good Luck. Vote ends last day of Jan. |

hi,
Yes, although the death rider is fighting for the good ones in the end, he was in my bad guy suggestion,
for the dead warriors (oathbreakers) of dunharrow are evil spirits, haunting the valleys at night so that everybody hides full of fear inside, doos and windows shut.
So before the fullfilling of the oath in 'Return of the King', they have refused, I think they belong to the bad ones.
greetings, hwolf

Good or bad, the dead dude still gets my support.

I voted for the Angmar Captain on a Warg! I don´t like that dead guys and I have got no, absolutely no, interest in them, really! I even regret the day I decided to buy the King of the Dead. Sorry!

It's the mounted 'stiff' for me , I think he will turn out to be a good figure, and I'm interested in how Chris will do the horse (assuming he wins of course). |

As the Dead Rider is not really bad and as I hated the dead of Dunharow for killing my beloved corsairs in the book it is the Angmar Captain on Warg to be voted now! I hope, that the Hillmen King will make it one day. Yes, back at the pony for a short rest would be fine. Namarie estel |

I voted for the dead horse rider this time, but it was a tough choice. I think sculpt-wise, a really emaciated horse with ribs showing and sunken hindquarters would work, as a starved horse looks strikingly different from a healthy horse. (Sculpting a horse skeleton in that scale that was even remotely close to realistic would be a nightmare.)

Indeed Wendy. But once you've seen those horse-skins Danes hung over a wooden rack next to a hidden pond very many years ago ... I saw it some years ago as that outside museum was opened ... a pond for gifts to the gods ... appalling

The Dead-men of Dunharrow would make a nice release as an M series in its own right - mounted and foot figures. We've has some dead-un's but perhaps it's food for thought for the future  |

We've has some dead-un's but perhaps it's food for thought for the future yes, I think you are perfectly right!! I have put them on the wish list in this forum some time ago as the "paths of the dead" and "the grey company" would be nice M- series!! NAMRIE estel |

Alas, talking about dead-uns, the Man in the Dark should know that he'll have a quiet place in the shade inside a new born 'Pony' by the middle of next week ..... rhhuuooommmmmmmmmm.... |

Good news indeed. And don't worry, Master Theobald's allusion to men in dark corners will make sense to regulars at the Pony!

well I hope so, cause I was not very very attentive at the chitchats at the pony (indeed i was sat lonely in my corner by the fire all that time) but I was a regular and I don't get the point

It's an allusion to that rascally Ranger who keeps popping up whenever you think he's not there.
