One of the very first true miniatures game I picked up was the Mines of Moria starter set from the Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game. This was definitely early days in my rediscovery of tabletop games but it was perfect because it included some paints, along with some terrain pieces. The only thing was everything in that set was plastic and even back then I wasn't a fan of the plastic figures. So I sought out the Fellowship box set which were all metal and this is what you see above.
Sam
Pippen
Merry - though I think this face sculpt looks way more like Sean Astin's Sam in my opinion.
Frodo
Gimli
Aragorn - in probably my favorite pose and sculpt of the entire line, this one is from the Weathertop set.
Legolas
Boromir
Aragorn part duex
Gandalf
I know that they rereleased an new version of the LOTR miniatures game, but I see these figures being used in either a Dungeons and Dragons game or just a homebrew classic dungeon crawl miniatures game like HeroQuest - I have a ton of dungeon tiles from a recent Kickstarter that would be perfect for something like that. We'll see, but the D&D bug has definitely hit me again so it should be interesting to see what happens in the future here.
As always, thanks for looking!
