;D Hello! Here are some products i think would be interesting... TEXT*The Mouth of Sauron on Horse-back *A Ringwraith on a Fell Beast *A Mordor War catapult *Eoywn of Rohan on a horse along with Merry Brandybuck *A seige tower (to reanact the siege of Gondor) *The outer walls of the city of Minas Tirith, complete with a working gate.
Well, I know some of these ideas are kind of impossible, but hey, it's an idea i've got. (I really like the idea of the Helm's Deep, since it is my favorite location throughout the Lord of the Rings book!) Well, at least take my ideas to thought.

Mithril already has a Mouth of Sauron on horseback, and you can order it through the Mithril Classics through the website. Mithril also has the Witch King on a Fell Beast in the MB 279 box set. I am pretty sure that the Gates of Helms Deep and Minas Tirith are impossible for Mithril to produce, and way too costly for Mithril consumers. I would also like to see war towers and catapult, but I would much rather see a set done with knights of Dol Amroth, rangers of the north, corsairs of umbar, and more warriors of harad (especially the black men of far harad) done first. Good ideas though! I personally enjoy hearing what people think Mithril should try to make next. Keep the ideas coming.

They are our LT series WE have the Mouth of Sauron already. The Witchking on a fellbeast is already available as a boxed set. Eowyn on horseback with Merry is interesting. She would be disguised of course as a man. Gates, towers and walls are not really possible. Just too expensive to build in metal. The tooling required would be extremely costly for us. Still is would be wonderful I agree.

Hmmm. About scenery...why not make them from resin ala the other guy's models?
Also, I am old and cantakerous enough to remember the old Prince August dungeon molds - little plaster molds to make walls and floors and so on. Perhaps something like that?
You could make generic prince august fantasy world plaster molds...but with special Mithril features. So you could make a fantasy tower set with some walls...but with an extra piece which could turn that fantasy tower set into a fallen Pellenor wall section. Or something.
Also, any chance of more Easterlings?

Since I'm getting the Oliphant, perhaps some complementary figures could be made to go with it? Maybe a couple more Rangers and Southrons (Haradrim?)...or would that be too close to a war band type of thing? Maybe a Southron champion...or make a figure of the Black Serpent that Theoden felled (and his standard bearer)?

When it was first released we did offer extra troops and Key Characters (some from the Rangers of Ithillien Series and some from our Rare Stock as well as an assortment from the Classics. These included any Haradrim we had in stock. As far as 'complementary' figures = free. Oh be fair. We reduced their cost but we cannot give free figures away with a brand new release.

Oops, sorry. Bad choice of words. By complementary, I meant similar scenario type figures, not free. Well, since I posted in this catagory, I guess I should make a suggestion. Hmm, how about Celebrian? Has a figure been made of her yet? Maybe a Christmas figure since she wouldn't really fit in a series too well.

I agree, more warg riders would be great, but I would also like to see more Ents in fighting poses, like Treebeard holding a rock before throwing it, or another Ent holding a small orc in his hands, or a twisted Huorn with a limb out ready to strick. If a set this year was done about Isengard, the warg riders and Ents could be in a set together. Have the Battle in Fangorn, with 3-5 battling Ents (Treebeard a must), a Dunland warrior with bow, a half orc with bow, a Uruk weilding a great axe, and 2 warg riders, one with a bow releasing an arrow, and another one charging with a scimitar in the air.

We do need more warg riders. I hope that the battle of five armies is done soon. Warg rider with bow and with scimatar would be perfect, also warg rider with standard or banner and an extra large warg chieftan.

once more totally agree! All in all two new sets this year: 1. Battle of Fangorn (with Ents and warg riders) GW haven´t any Ents in war poses! Probably for GW-Collectors interesting too (more figurines to sell for Mithril). 2. Knights of Dol Amroth (Minas Tirith) ;D ;D ;D ;D

Hi, I would love to see a vignette of Beren when he first sees Luthien dancing in the woods. Hi welcome on board, but you will see once you've had a look around the site and postings that sadly Silmarrillion based stuff is beyond the licensing agreements Don't worry - we've all wished for this suggestion and similar.
