August '08 2nd round vote is CLOSED

[Michael O'Brien]

Tom the Troll won the first round by a large margin, however there was a significant amount of votes that were spread over other suggestions, so they may change the result.

Every member has ONE vote and may comment on why he agrees or disagrees with an entry.

You have until September 2nd to vote. The vote ends at 16.00 BST.

Eomer for me

[barliman]

I thought Boromir was a worthy runner-up last time, and he remains my favourite of this month's three finalists, so he gets my vote.

[ddaines]

Don't leave William all alone, vote Tom ;D

[karalx]

Hi ! i vote Boromir ! ... and Rohan shield again !!

[Gildor]

that would be odd to have only one of the three trolls...So I voted Tom, and I'll vote Bert if it appears in next months... Definitly Tom can't remain alone... though my first choice was for Boromir I switched my vote for Tom on 2nd round (because it reached second round... which was not the case last time I suggested it myself...).

[ungoliant]

William needs his two brothers. Bring forth Tom.

I thought you suggested Bert Gildor, that is why I suggested Tom so as not to suggest someone else's idea (I know Bombadil suggested all three at once). So apologies if this is the case.

[Axe99]

Tom is a brilliant idea, but Boromir blowing the horn edges him out for me - but if Tom doesn't get up (and same goes for Eomer), they're more than worthy of another crack at the win in a future month

[estel]

Boromir could be brought out as a figure in an excellent dynamic pose and I hope Chris will do it this way with an Elven cloak, maybe one feet resting on a stone, the sword in is right hand, rising it into the sky, in the other hand the horn blowing it. I hope the cloak (if designed) will flow in the air. Such hero!

Boromir gets my vote and thanks to all of you who have voted for him this time around! I think Chris would do an outstanding job on him if he wins!

[twrich]

Without endorsing any selection, this month's vote is a great example of why two rounds of voting is such an important feature of our monthly choice.

I fully agree

[jdbrown55]

Well, the future king of Rohan made it to the second round and I am happy for that, but he will probably not win. I am not sad because their is hope for Eomer next time. Thanks to all who voted for him this time.

[ferisam]

Go for Tom, i got enough Boromir's 's 's 's 's 's

[Gildor]

You're right Ddaines I was mistaken but Tom or Bert, same fight , William needs his brothers be it Bert or Tom at first and don't worry I do not claim any idea of my own on any of the trolls

[bombadil1963]

Trolls, especially characters, are few but Boromirs can´t be counted over here. Ok, there are some remarkable statements against the Three Trolls. For example that they should appear as a normal range, available for every client. But there´s no sign of hope at the horizon that this or other projects will happen some day. Nobody reveals his plans for future at Mithril´s. So only the Fellowship is our chance to get our wishes becoming reality

[landpruneir Inc.]

Tom the troll for me, I think that Mithril collection needs some figure like this one.

Yes Gildor you are right in saying that "William needs his brothers"
Tom or Bert same fight, but one of the two will be more than welcome (I mean for the long time we have been waiting to see these 3 trolls done, it would be nice to see them the sooner the better.

[Theobald]

Well, if the vote stays open a bit longer the troll might have a chance to win ....

[barliman]

By the bar clock in the Pony time's up, and Boromir has won by four votes.

[ddaines]

Come on, put poor old Savage out of his misery, Boromir is a worthy winner and a figure in this pose is very useable.

I think it happened to me with Balin getting 'pipped' by a late ending, and while the suggesting and voting is a bit of friendly fun and rivalry, it don't do the 'ticker' any favours having to wait longer than you should ;D hoping that your suggestion will hold on to a lead.

Tom (and Bert) will have their day I'm sure.

[Gildor]

let's just hope a collector is not too fond of the trolls idea and submit them as an MX to be sure Mithril makes them.. that would be a "worse loss" for regular customers than a GF figurine (NB : don't worry I'll never be "that" collector )
They'll have their time

[Theobald]

Well, as usually I voted in time. I was just wondering why the voting doesn't find an end ....
