Nice scores, Dan! I was able to acquire a 1/18 scale Sauron figure by BST AXN for under 20€. Really happy to have them now. The BendyFigs one is about 1/14 scale with a height of about 17 cm which I got a few weeks ago for 17€ shipped. I highly recommend to get these figures if you're a fan of Lord of the Rings:

I got the BST  AXN one a few months back and love it! I am not into bendy stuff though.

I got my Neca An American Werewolf in London Kessler wolf today. I love it! The sculpt is great! He has two different heads, open and closed mouth, that looks exactly like the wolf in the movie. The paint apps are great, variations of grey and brown fur. The articulation is great. The range of motion is not that great and the joints are stiff, but it's still good.

I bought this to have a monster for my endor projects. I had some Schleich statues that look more like a Boar-wolf, but they weren't very intimidating. This thing, is scary, and it's 7 inch scale so it's also huge compared to 3.75 figures. I'm happy with it.

It is awesome. There's not much more I can say. Despite the range of motion id still give it a 9.5/10. I have my own grading system called the 4 "A"s based on articulation, accessories, accuracy, attention to detail.   The accessories category is always lacking because I'm an accessories nut, but honestly what else can he come with? A chewed up arm? I think they knocked it out of the park.

I recently watched the movie, I can't believe I hadn't seen it before. I think because of it's X rating, it's hard to come by. I tried to rent it on Amazon, and it said unavailable in your area. How is that possible? Anyway great movie. I'm a grown ass man, and I went outside for something at night, I heard something walking in the leaves and I was like what the hell is that!? Any movie that can make me like that is good.

I am very tempted by this but have yet to see one in person.

I'd recommend it. I got it from EE at a discount because of a slightly damaged box, plus a 10% discount, so i payed $25 plus tax and shipping. If I was into packaging, I'd buy another at full price, because it's beautiful, it captures the look and feel of the movie. I have yet to see it in any stores and I know it's been out for a while.  I rarely, rarely step away from star wars, the only exception is this and the Super7 Muckman, and I gave that to my brother, because it doesn't fit with anything I have.

He's certainly a ferocious looking beastie for someone to fight! Looks great for the Ewoks to fight against - the stuff of their nightmares - and no slouch for taking out biker scouts either.

That's a pretty cool vintage figure. Which is the other one you want? And...do you have any of the vehicles from that line?
