I think we posted that it would be around $175. Presellers have it about almost 25 bucks less then that as well.

Guys,
It's small...only 9 inches tall. The Balrog and FB were $150 is and this is about the same size as them, slightly bigger.
A damn shame IMO. They should have made it big and $300.

I hope not. Its not worth that. $25 less than the original CT.

I read $175?

I would agree with you Bulls, but that may not be the final retail price. For the size of the piece it should fall into the $150-175 range

It's $175. I preorderd one for $148. King of the Dead is the same price I believe at $175.

$175 the KoTD must be a pretty big run?
Comicboy

No clue on the edition size yet. Look at the Witchking in trueform. He was what like $150 new.

Damn this could be 1000 run.

if the battle troll goes for 250+ he better be e size of the cave troll
anything smaller than that 150-200 at most
as for the KOTD dont matter what he costs ...hes a must buy no matter what
and hopefully 1000 pieces would be great

The Battle Troll is $175. And he is supposedly in scale with the baby roc.
Bullseye

The thing is the original Balrog wasn't in scale with the rest of the stuff. He would have been huge.
It's $175. I preorderd one for $148. King of the Dead is the same price I believe at $175.
Where did you pre-order from?

$175 isnt a bad price if its that size
i wish they would of made it cave troll or original balrog size
would of made it alot nicer

I'm hoping that it's larger too....oh well, I'm still gonna get one..
SithLord11572
02-15-2005, 06:36 PM
Yup ...no matter what the size and price....it come down to that im going to get anyway

Damn this could be 1000 run.
I doubt any of these key new pieces will be 1000 run. More likely 4000-5000. They are going to sell them all so why limit it like that? If they take one of the new pieces and do it as Sideshow web exclusive I would think it would be on the order of 2000.

So you think the days of the 750 and 1000 runs are over?
SithLord11572
02-15-2005, 06:58 PM
2000 would be a nice run for the KOTD
750-1000 you wont see anymore
maybe if they make a baradur it will be that low like the ORTHANC

Bullseye, I would think so unless you are talking about the odd exclusive here or there. What's the point? They don't need the buzz. And it is a business so they do want to make money. Look at Sauron. 9500 pieces, SOLD OUT. KOTD will sell 5000 without breaking a sweat.
SithLord11572
02-15-2005, 07:02 PM
just imagine if Sauron was only 3000-5000.....how much it would be going for now...as it is at 9500 you cant touch one for under $400
Bullseye
02-15-2005, 07:03 PM
Well i hope to be one of those 5000 KoTD owners. I'm really excited about this one.

no doubt....the exclusives are definitely going to be fewer and far between....it doesn't make sense for them to hold back just for the buzz.....they can sell out most of everything....except maybe for Pippin.... :o

There really should be no reason why you won't be able to get one of these.

I understand the Battle Troll will clock in at 12" tall. Basically Fell Beast and Baby Rog scale.
SithLord11572
02-15-2005, 09:26 PM

which is a damn shame should be cave troll size
