Thanks to all members who have contributed to this months list of ideas so far. Chris has submitted the approved list today. The vote is blind and so the poll will only show the current status after you submit your vote. The final round begins next Monday.

Spider of Mirwood attacking
Is there any chance that a spider will finally find its way into the darkness of containment? For the moment, there is only one Mirkwood spider reference (out of stock).... I retry, again and again, to suggest a spider attacking to complete this reference. And always with both fangs visible, seem essential to me!

Nár, Companion of Thrór, waiting outside of Moria
When Thrór went on his last journey to Moria, he only took one companion with him – Nár.
But he entered Moria alone and had Nár wait for him outside.
I would like to see a miniature of Nár sitting in a long hooded cloak in front of a small campfire or standing, leaning on some kind of staff (spear/axe) and looking towards the entrance where Thrór disappeared…

Sauron, in the shape of Annatar, forging the One Ring
Sauron forged the One Ring in his fair appearance. I like Chris` interpretation of Annatar (Annatar fighting Celebrimbor). A "Lord of the Rings"-collection needs a forging Annatar.

I would like to see an ordinary Gundabad Orc Warrior in a fighting pose,
in the old M94 and M98 style.

Gondorian infantry man wounded
The Battle of the Pelennor Fields is just over and the Haradrim are running away. He is alive and standing. His right flank is pierced by a spear he brokes at the middle. His helmet in hand and his sword is nowhere to be seen

Treebeard says: The world is changing. I feel it in the water, I feel it in the earth, and I smell it in the air.
And also strange times for all of us in the real world, which is also changing. Why not make something good out of it.
(Aragorn as) King Elessar holding up the crown of Westernesse at his Coronation
Then Aragorn took the crown and held it up and said: Et earello Endorenna utúlien. Sinome maruvan ar Hildinyar tenn´ Ambar-metta!
J. R. R. Tolkien The Lord of the Rings The Return of the King Chapter V The Steward and the King
We have King Elessar on horseback at the Black Gate, and a older fellowship release together with Arwen his queen, which is very beautiful and after his passing.
What about a figure of him in royal garments holding up the winged crown the very moment when he speaks the numenorean words.
I trust in Chris Tubb

Gandalf at Aragorn Coronation holding the crown in front of him"Aragorn, being unable to continue the crowning tradition, decided to have the ring-bearer carry the crown, and Mithrandir place it upon his head." Maybe Chris will decide for a vignette.

Ted Sandyman at The Green Dragon Ted Sandyman sitting on a stool at The Green Dragon, giving his fellow drinkers the benefit of his wisdom, a tankard of ale in one hand with the other hand pointing at some hapless hobbit.
Doesn't believe in walking tree-men or elves and there's only one dragon in Bywater and that's green.
Facial resemblance to Donald or Boris?
To clarify - Ted Sandyman's face and hair to be sculpted in the Mithril style for hobbits.
Ted Sandyman in the Mithril style is something I have thought about before now as his 'negativity' captured in miniature would a good contrast with the other hobbits in the range.
It is a serious suggestion at both a normal time and also at this time. There are a lot of Ted Sandymans out there at the moment.

Troll Blowing Horn As part of Sauron's host that poured forth from the Black Gates to confront the Captains of the West as they stand upon the slag heaps. A semi armoured troll blowing some large kind of horn (or even a crude trumpet) urging on the host of Mordor..... This is a re-submission of a previous suggestion

Dúnadan of "The Grey Company" fighting on foot in the battle of "The Fields of Pelennor".
I imagine him fighting alongside Halbarad MS579, covering his back with a sword and shield.

No, not seriously - their faces are not in the Mithril style, certainly not their hair. Also, it would be controversial to do so.

I am intrigued with the Annatar suggestion - imagining a small vignette for him, forging the Ring in a hall of the Orodruin using a lava fountain.
