"There are a couple of little gems amongst all the suggestions: Bombur carrying Bilbo for one and the Embassy to King Elessar. Both would make great vignettes, especially the first as there are never enough humorous pieces. I have left out the trolls suggestion as it is far too big for a fellowship vignette." by Chris Tubb.
All members have until the 22nd (at 16.00 GMT) to vote for their favourite idea, and can post comments on them. Those who have submitted the 11 ideas must now win the hearts and minds of the other members. Good Luck to all.
The next vote will contain the most successful suggestions, so every vote counts.

I voted for the Wandering Company of Eriador.
I know I am a total elf maniac, but Chris' elves, when he does them right are amazing.
I want to see the high elves of old making pilgrimages through their ancient homeland, watching for enemies and bringing an echo of the elder days to the deep autumn nights of Eriador.
Such figures could also be used as background figures in a Rivendell or a Lorien diorama scene.
(Though the Knight vs the Hillman is an amazing idea too!)

I voted for Bullroarer Took.
I believe i have enough elves and i defenitly dont need a wandering company. all the other suggestions, except the Haradan standart bearer and Eowyn and Angmar (love naygúl as others do elves^^), i believe rather weak or rather (more) too big in scale an dimension and therefore too expensive.
none the less i like to see the mount doom final soon, but i would think it would count for a 1 figure month (frodo and gollum are one in this aren t they? as would be bombur and bilbo). and of course the nazgúl.
but of course i kind off missed the suggestion myself, and that in an open month, and i am sorry, somehow forgot. maybe so did others.
for a good and wise choice

Well, without the Trolls its the funeral boat for me. Faramir taking his last glimpse of his brother in the eerie night on the Anduin is a moving scene, and apart from that we can use these boat for a representation of the Fellowship in Lorien and on its way down the Anduing anyway. So if its made, I hope we will also get a new M release on the Fellowship out of it (in 2012 or so).

It has to be the eagle! Hopefully with a lot more detail then the last eagles produced. Looking forward to it!

Well as ever I must at leat give my own suggestion a vote for the first round at least (Embassy of King Elessar), but I have a funny feeling a winner may be winging its way in already and have already voiced my support eleswhere.

I voted Bullroarer Took and Golfimbul, two named characters that have not been made before. How many Gandalf's do we have? I would like to see Bombur made, but I would prefer him not carrying Bilbo.

Hi Folks - Yeah it's time for a Gold fellowship Gandalf figure… with great eagle the better! I wonder if he will be mounted on the great bird or dangling from the talons?
But all the other suggestions are worthy to be kept in mind and resuggested again.
Happy voting, Hwolf

I am making a final appeal for Frodo, Gollum, and Samwise at the Crack of Doom!!!!
This is a major point in the LOTR story--indeed THE climax of the entire Third Age of Middle-Earth.
Let them make it to the second round, where anything might happen.
VOTE CRACK OF DOOM!!!

Sorry, I won´t vote this time!
Next times I`ll suggest only one black squirrel from Mirkwood or the purse of a troll´cause they aren´t too big . . .
