Bummer deal. I haven't finished collecting yet! lol Ah well, I'm sure they will revive the collectibles sometime, I read that Peter is talking about a 10th anniversary dvd, so they may bring them back then. Can I possible wait that long?! I better grab everything I can afford now before nobody cares about LOTR anymore, it stops making money and they stop making products. I've never in my live even wanted to collect film memorabilia until these films came out. I must get the Flag of Rohan before they are sold out too. (The flags are shipped from Germany, so it takes 6-8 weeks.) My Aragorn banner is gorgeous next to my bed and I have various small collectibles all over my room. But I want more! lol Ah well, good things come to those who wait. I'm lucky I'm patient. :P

Namárië! Nai hiruvalyë Valimar!
