New LOTR Mithril Release: Ent fighting half-Orc Commander.

Mithril Miniatures released this miniature in September 2011 as the winning idea in April 2011.

Brief Story about this figure.
During ‘The War of the Ring’ Saruman’s Orcs began to destroy the forest around Isengard. This destruction of trees caused great anger in the Ents as they considered themselves tree shephards.

Merry and Pippin helped encourage action during the Entmoot.

This resulted in a massive assault on Isengard by the Ents and they destroyed any half-Orcs they could find.

Eventually they took control of Isengard and held Saruman hostage.

Price is 32.95 Euro for the 1st item, however additional items have a 5 Euro discount (27.95 Euro).

Released Female Dorwinrim Wine Merchant LOTR Mithril miniature.

Mithril Miniatures released in September 2011 the May 2011 winning Fellowship idea that won that month's vote.

Brief story about this figure.
Lying on the north-western shores of the sea of Rhun, the land of Dorwinion forms the eastern marches of the great plain of Rhovanion. It is a country famous for its wines, which are traded far and wide across the region. Much of its produce is shipped to Esgaroth and is also highly prized by the Elves of Mirkwood. Dorwinion's Sagathic neighbours must also appreciate its wines and they are doubtless enjoyed in many a chieftain's hall.

This figure represents one of those Dorwinrim merchants who ply their wares across Rhun and Rhovanion. This woman has a small pony which is laden with jars which contain samples of her wine varieties. She is dressed in a style which is an amalgam of the Northmen costume style of Esgaroth, and that of the Easterling peoples of the Rhun are.

The price is 32.95 Euro for the first one, but you gain a 5 Euro discount on duplicates (27.95 Euro).

2 New LOTR Mithril Releases in August 2011

MS569 Hirgon, Bearer of the Red Arrow.

MS570 Sam with the cooking apparatus.

Mithril Miniatures has released two more 32mm scale metal miniatures in August 2011. These are pre-primed.

http://www.mithril.ie

The MS570 Figure is the Hobbit Samwise Gamgee. During his adventure with Frodo and Gollum towards Mordor to destroy the One Ring they rested in a glen near a river.

As Frodo rests, exhausted by the drain created by wearing the One Ring, Sam employs Gollum in gathering food (rabbits) and then herbs. Sam then cooked a meal.

MS569 Hirgon, Bearer of the Red Arrow.
Hirgon is an emissary of Gondor, who brought the Red Arrow to Théoden at Harrowdale, in token of Gondor's desperate need for help from its old allies. Its flights were black and its barbs were made of steel, and it took its name from a mark of red painted on the arrow's tip.
Riding back eastward to his Lord, Denethor, Hirgon and his companion encountered Sauron's forces on the Rammas Echor, and were cut down as they tried to escape.
