So I'm looking into branching out with some of my collecting. I found a series of obscure Lord of the Ring's toys that seem very well produced.

They were made by Middle Earth Toys which was an evolution of Toy Banner.

Toy Vault Lord of the Rings Action Figures
This seems to be the set list of what they got out.

BBTS has a few in stock but not all of them unfortunately and I can't find anymore.

Ideas, leads etc?

I like those. I was unaware of their existence. If I come across any in my internet travels, I will post the info here for you.

Would you recommend them?

They seem very well sculpted, articulated and possessing good accessories

The company was out of Kentucky, and they did some interesting plush animals for Cthulu and Monty Python. I remember they were upset that they didn't get a shot at the LotR movie license, and I think I applied for a job with them at one point.

Their web site (ToyVault) has some contact information, but I don't know if it's up to date or not. I always had a lot of luck contacting them directly in the past, and I'm sure they would be able to help you find some of the older toys. If the contact info is up to date.

Heh funny you say something bout that because I just sent them an email.

I think I found most of the figures now it's just about getting the cash. I'm still iffy on getting them because I mainly stay in the 3 3/4 size but this seems too good to pass up
