I hope everyone enjoyed their Halloween. I had several hours of small monsters seeking voluntary contributions to their sugar addictions on Saturday, but that is why I stock up beforehand.
Anyway Chris has sent me the approved list today and he had to remove Herumor, as he derives from the Silmarillion.
This vote is going to expire at midnight on the 16th (Monday). It is a secret vote, so you will only see the current stage of the vote after submitting your vote. The next vote will start hopefully on the 17th and run until the end of the month.

Well, I might give my latest suggestion a second try ... EASTERLING CHAMPION, fighting Forlong I imagine this figure as a complement (opponent) to the Forlong-figure in its pose. Unfortunately J.R.R. Tolkien did not reveal much about his idea of Easterlings, just that those fighting on the Pelennor Fields were bearded men "of a new sort ... out of some savage land in the wide East".

Female snake dancer of Far Harad
Far Harad: a beautiful young girl in floating garments and veils performing her dance with a large snake, like a king python or a Boa constrictor of our world, around her shoulders, body and limbs She would without doubt be in very high favours of the wealthy traders and army captains of the south, for the snake is the sign on the Haradrim banners and shields! Figure is supposed to fit to MS 584 Haradrim bellydancer

I suggested Vorondil a few times before he finally made it into print (not my suggestion that time) so how about the Kine that he slew to get the hereditary horn handed down over the years. I imagine a large Auroch type beast maybe with some shaggy fur around the front/head. The beast could be either grazing unsuspecting anything, or my preferences given the Vorondil figure's pose would be for the Kine to be either looking up either startled or in a 'heads-down' position ready to charge the approaching hunter.

Herumor, black Numenorean Lord of Harad
For in the days of the sojourn of Sauron in that land the hearts of well nigh all its people had been turned towards darkness. Therefore many of those who sailed east in that time and made fortresses and dwellings upon the coasts were already bent to his will, and they served him still gladly in Middle-earth. But because of the power of Gil-galad these renegades, lords both mighty and evil, for the most part took up their abodes in the southlands far away; yet two there were, Herumor and Fuinur, who rose to power among the Haradrim, a great and cruel people that dwelt in the wide lands south of Mordor beyond the mouths of Anduin.
His fate was unknown until he was named again in the fourth age as Morgoth worshipper plotting against Eldarion.

I still would like to see a Half-orc Hornblower of Saruman's Armyto complement the Half-orcs in the normal Mithril range. Almost all other races have their hornblowers or other musiciens, but not yet the half-orcs I think. Half-orc-hornblower

Seems to me that Master Picard is the only person so far to have grasped the fact that it's a double figure month! Nice suggestion too.
I'm still thinking about mine, but so far my mental well has run dry (so to speak). But I have to say that Michael's intro is sending mixed signals - no mounted figures are acceptable, and yet a mounted figure counts as two figures and that would be OK. Or have I become plain confused by it all?

It is not a double figure month, it is a double month thread as in it covers TWO months, one for suggesting the idea and the second (Nov) to vote twice on the list of ideas. We are trying to give Chris time to catch up on past releases, while he is training up his Zbrush skills as well.

So I HAVE lost the plot. Never mind. Being confused is what I'm good at - I have a lifetime's experience.

I agree, but sadly I'm the only person to have voted for it so far.
