Fulvio said: "Note also that the quality of the MS sculpt are slightly higher than those of the late production M series."
Well, it should be. A MS release is three the price of a M-release . . .

Mithril: would you be so kind, please, and release the finished range of the Easterlings! Thank you!

Ahhh- another fan of, well, let´s call them: Easterlings . . .
( are Variags Easterlings . . . not really, but for sure they are descendants- mongolian like)
And now certain people would say: Easterlings already do exist . . . but where? Sorry fulvio. You are a new member here. As a fan of those Easterlings too, I have to learn, that a m-release already exist, but is waiting for being released for more than 2 years . . . Frustating, isn´t it . . .

It is a fact, that this Lady has got a fine head start. Nevertheless there is still a chance for this elven-hornblower . . . Don´t resign . . . AND VOTE !

Ja, ja. Da stehen Halborks und Rohirrim auf meinem Tisch. Fertig bemalt mit allem drum und dran. Und. . . jetzt?! Wie gehts denn weiter . . . Ich kann kein Diorama konzipieren, weil die übrigen Figuren fehlen. Und sie stehen rum und rum und verstauben . . . ( letztens hat doch glatt die Katze versucht, sich eine zu "krallen" ) Ziemlich genau seit einem Jahr jetzt. M A N N ! E I N J A H R ! So kann man keine Dioramas bauen. Irgendwie nervt das, irgendwie bremst das.

Well, Master Grond is not to be blamed, and that´s for sure !!! It is just simple as he pointed out in his post above. Mithril gives the rules and there is only one way possible: to follow. There is only the management who is to be blamed in stopping the regular M-range. But to be honest, this point has been discussed too often in the past . . . There is frustation remaining . . .

I would like to suggest the following title:
Archer of dale
Thank you.

Oh jeh. Da kann man nur die Augen verdrehen. Die "Hunnen" Thematik habe ich auch zur Kenntniss genommen. Atemberaubend. Aber zurück zu wirklich wichtigen Themen: Troll und Wolfsreiter. Oh je. Da kann man nur die Augen verdrehen. Der geschätzte Nikolai vermisst die guten Ideen, ich auch. Und den König der Ostlinge fand ich ganz schön klasse. Den habe ich auch gewählt . . . An diese Stelle kann man auf eine frühere Diskussion verweisen, wo deutlich wurde, daß aufgrund fehlender "regulärer" M-Serien der Fellowship verwässert wird. Dafür sind die "regulären" Figuren im Fellowship Preis-Gewand allerdings zu teuer. Die letzte reguläre M-Serie gab es vor einem Jahr! Man bedenke dieses. Da hat sich nicht wirklich was verändert. Die Erklärungen, warum mithril uns nicht mit M-Serien überschwemmt sind für mich nicht akzepierbar. Da liegt irgendwo seit Jahren eine fertige Serie Ostlinge herum . . . unglaublich. Da wird mir schwummerig. Oder sind´s Hunnen . . .

For the reason Michael cancelled my suggestion of the Easterling archer (though I did not really agree that he really exists . . . ) I vote for Estel´s suggestion, to give an Easterling a chance !!!!!! I would like to say again, that these Rohan children are a really fantastic suggestion, as for Grond´s as well. Sorry Mark, I really vote for your next one . . . lol.

It seems that I suggested too many figures . . . ts, tss, tsss So this occasion to suggest a mounted figure I surely won´t pass. As for Estel and myself, those Easterlings are very much precedented! I take a step into direct competition to him, althoug his suggestion is brilliant . . . So here is my ultimate suggestion:
idea title: Easterling Archer, mounted
I suggested him before, as a scythian-like rider on a running horse firering a typical short-bow...backwards!

Well, there are already mounted rohirrim suggested. Also, I don´t know if I understand Michael the right way. He will correct me. I really like to point your interest on the following
Idea Title: mounted Rohirrim fighting against Haradrim foot soldier
That should mean, something like the MS 499 Arnorian Knight/Hillman King. I think it could be a nice contrast between the both types of warriors. Between north and south.

There should be some people around here who travel to Bretagne for searching the perfect rock for their dioramas . . . That Bretagne should be focused on . . .

Staffage nennt man das, glaube ich, oder? Unerläßlich, jedem Diorama Leben einzuhauchen. Da muß man schon arg bei anderen Herstellern wildern und dann vorallem aufpassen, daß der mithril-mood nicht verwässert, gar verloren geht. Haben wir eine reelle Chance? Ich glaube nein.

Sehr guter Vorschlag, Harald! Und sehr gute Beispiele ebenfalls! "Schwäne vom Anduin" klingen sehr vielversprechend . . .

Poor interest? Not at all, as far as I am concerned . . . . This book was also for me a very long time the ONLY Tolkien-inspired book with illustrations. Beside the calendars. The illustrations are magnificent!

Yes, a very nice illustration indeed, Mark ! Because I am a real fan of the first Borrow-Wight-King, the M024, I will make my mind up to give him a chance . . .

Der Rat von Elrond! Seit den Gesprächen hier machte ich mir Gedanken, wie man Selbigen konzipieren würde- mit bereits existierenden Figuren. Es ist mir tatsächlich gelungen, ALLE dafür (noch) notwendigen Miniaturen in den letzten Wochen bei ebay zu "schießen". ( sagenhaft - auch schön, wenn man mal Glück hat . . . ) Mehr dazu, ich zitiere Gildor: "elsewhere"

38 votes. Sad that is . . . Maybe mithril can reduce the batch of MS-figures to 38 . . . DON´T DO THAT, Mr. Lars. There is still hope for the next month to have an abnormous vote-increase . . . Congrats to Master aelwine!

Well, this Bard really could be something like a "wandering" Elf. With a huge cloak, a walking-stick - as shown in the illustration and a harp being strapped on his back ?! Let´s resume: somekind of a "WANDERING ELF . . . " Seems, that we get the "first" figure soon . . .
