    Absolutely stunning piece but, oddly, Saruman and the throne are a single piece (other than the hand holding the Palantir), however his staff is a separate piece and has no real connection or "plug in" hole, it's just... balanced there... soooo easy to knock out of place and potentially break...

    1/6 Gandalf the White & Shadowfax from Asmus: Asmus Toys LOTR Gandalf the White & Shadowfax

    For a non-articulated Shadowfax, I probably would have gone with a galloping pose rather than just standing. Shadowfax isn't famous for standing still, haha.

    Neither the pics nor the solicitation mentions accesories. Are these just figures now, with no swords spears or other stuff?

    Hmmm…good question. The listings say interchangeable parts and accessories, but nothing is pictured. I even went to DS’s website and saw the same thing. It seems crazy for them to not have at least one or two weapons…who knows, though…

    Normally, at least on bbts the stuff is listed in the box contents section. Below is a previous diamond lotr figure set. They listed each figures stuff. But these just say figure. It is just odd. Maybe they don't know what is with them yet. Like maybe diamond didn't say what is with them, if anything.

    I wonder if there's a new build-a-figure for this wave, now that Sauron's done? Like maybe a cave troll or something?

    My gut says no BAF, there wasn't one for Gandalf and the other Orc. I guessing that was just a wave one promo thing?
