Well, if you ever come into possession of the idol, I may be able to suggest a trade. It would, of course, involve throwing.

[QUOTE=Burrido]  
One of the rings from LOTR trilogy. Hoping someday a drugged out Elijah Woods will decided to sell his on Ebay for beer money. I will take out a loan to win the ring.  
[/QUOTE]

There are a lot of items from that movie I’d like to own. The drinking cups, some of the jewelery, one of those “elvin capes” . . . I was really dissapointed in the merchandising surrounding those movies. I was hoping they’d sell good replicas of some of the items in the film, but what I found online didn’t meet my expectations.

I thought the sword replicas, with the exception of the uruk-hai sword, were pretty good looking.

I’m pretty sure it was a stand-in. A “sleddy-double”, if you will.

I want Princess Leia’s brass bra. Or would that be more of a costuming item? 😃

Otherwise, I’d like most of the stuff Bond gets to play with in the various movies, especially the boats. Like the one he uses to go up the river in _Moonraker_.

Theoden’s throne from LOTR  
The Glamdring hero sword.

And that wraps up my husband’s Christmas list. For me, I’m rather fond of the rust velevet robe Elrond was wearing at the council, providing I can personally tear it off Hugo Weaving’s body.
