| Post subject: | List of Figures GW have discontinued |
After reading on a previous post "The Kings" have been discontinued, I was wondering what else has now gone. As I am a collector who likes to have a set of everything (not that I do), it may be good if anyone notices if GW stop certain models and lists them. Hopefully it will be a small list! |

Also thought of the Metal 'wizards duel' box or blister (don't know which it was). With a very cool Saruman, Gandalf and a palantir on standard.. |

I assume that you only mean LotR miniatures. Bilbo Baggins (did he come back as Direct Order only recently?), Lobelia Sackville Baggins, Paladin Took and maybe Bullroarer Took, I think... |

Try the Self made Collectors' Guide On the help with miniatures section.There are figures there I did not know were made. I know you can not get metal Mordor orcs. Can you get the Dwarf Kings? |

Bilbo, Paladin and Bullroarer aswell as the dwarve lords are all still available. here's a list of some of the discontinued items. Heroes of Helms Deep Box Set Defenders of Rohan Box Set Captured by Gondor Box Set Escape from Orthanc Box Set Heroes of the West Box Set Barrow Downs Box Set The White Council Box Set Metal Warg Riders Box Set Metal Balrog Metal Mordor Orcs Metal Morannon Orcs Metal Uruk Hai Scouts Metal Galadrhim Elves Metal Lothlorien Elves Metal Ent Metal Nazgul Lobelia Sackville Baggins Golfimbul Metal Haradrim Raiders Rangers of the North Metal Knights of Gondor Uruk Hai Scout Captain Rohan Captain Metal Swan Knights Swan Knight Captain & Banner Bearer Rohan Royal Guard Banner Bearer Metal Morgul Knights Kings of Men Metal Mordor Troll Metal Isengard Troll Metal Witch King on Fell Beast Metal Army of the Dead There's a whole bunch more i missed out but most of the discontinued metals have been replaced by plastic sets and most of the discontinued heroes are available in different poses, the only exceptions seem to be Lobelia, the Kings of Men and Golfimbul who doesn't have a profile in the latest edition of the game. |

Invisible Frodo was only ever a limited edition (resin I believe) model.[/quote] You're right King Ondoher, it was made of resin. I was fortunate enough to get hold of one

There's two more sets I can think of. One is the Heroes of the Pelennor, which had Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Eomer, Eowyn, Faramir, Peregrin, Meriadoc, and maybe Theoden. The other is the Warriors of the Pelennor Fields, a huge box set with loads of Gondor models. Also, all the Battlehosts are no longer in production. |

The one with the Pelennor Minis was the "Heroes of the West-Box" witch is listed allready above. The Battlehost Boxes had, with one exception, no special Minis in it. To only exception was "Muster of Rohan" witch had an limited Rohan Captain in it. |

White Council is still available as is the Sam, Frodo and Gollum pack. Heroes of the West is gone, though Defenders of Rohan is similar. EDIT: ok, read the White Council page properly and I'm wrong, they are gone. Though I know a couple of stores with a few left! |

I did indeed mean the Nazgul on Fell Beast and when i said the Dol Amroth captain and banner i really should of noted it was just the mounted models. And yes sadly the brilliant Rangers of the North are no more due to being replaced by the lame Grey Company models, i should know i spent £30 getting all six poses on ebay along with £15 i spent on the original (and superior) Halbarad with banner. |
