LOTR Busts - best and worst?

I've been considering maybe grabbing a few select LOTR busts, and I was just wondering what you guys thought were the best ones that GG have done, and which are the worst, or ones best avoided (poor likeness/paint apps etc)? So, please, edumacate me.

Feel free to show pics of your LOTR bust collections here too...

Cheers.

Well I have them all and for the most part think they're great.

Frodo's likeness is pretty poor and Sam's isn't the greatest either but you can pick those two up for pretty cheap on the bay so I still think they're worth having in your collection. Just leave Frodo's helmet on.

Elrond's likeness is decent but not great and his pose isn't anything exciting.

Aside from those 3 I'd say the rest are must haves. Saruman, Gandalf and the Balrog in particular.

While my pics aren't up to P1X4R's quality here are a few shots of mine:

Yeah Saruman and Gandalf are the main ones I've been looking at probably getting, Saruman especially has been really tempting me, good to hear they're worth picking up.

So is that all the LOTR busts that have been released? I haven't paid much attention to these, but I thought there had been more?
