Hey Guys!
Do any of you guys collect LOTR SBG? I have just started collecting, painting and gaming and am really enjoying it!
I have the Mines of Moria Starter and Mines of Moria Paint Starter Sets, as well as the Hobby Starter Set.

I'm going to try and collect Gondor, Easterings and Isengaurd Armies.

Does anyone else collect them?

I've played it, but never collected. I used to play and collect both Warhammer 40 k and Warhammer Fantasy. (They are made by the same company, Games Workshop).

Games Workshop is a major rip off btw. They are always raising the prices. Since I started playing the price of a unit of space marines has doubled.

As computer games involving 40k have been coming out more (Dawn of War, new Fire Warrior supposed to be coming) and Fantasy (Mark of Chaos, Age of Reckoning: Online) the prices have been rising, it's almost becoming ridiculous now. We used to have quite a big Space Marines and another large Orks collection, as in decent size but we flogged it off a while back...

The LOTR version had me interested at one point a few years back, but I always thought the LOTR ones especially weren't value for money.

They are really hard to sell these days, thats why the prices are up

WAR online is based on it, and I considered playing

WAR Online is not based on LOTR Strat... It's based on the original Warhammer Fantasy. LOTR Online on the other hand may be.

LOTR SBG's so much better than Fantasy or 40k... :dry:

I've always preferred 40k to LOTR. I just prefer the models, both in size and design, as LOTR models used to be a fair bit smaller than 40k and Fantasy ones.
