The Man With No Name Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hello all, just wondering, did they ever make a Boromir minimate? Seems like maybe, maybe not?? If so, is he rare, and how much does he go for? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=173&n=Boromir Don't have any clue about price or rarity, but I'm sure a quick look around ebay could give you an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 As you can see he exists and on a personal note, other than Sauron he's my favorite LOTR minimate. I'm glad I was able to find him. I'll tell you this though: it was not easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambitron Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I still find myself angry that they cancelled the the third wave! I really wanted some Ring Wraiths!!!!! My LOTR minimates are some of my favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man With No Name Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 See, I've never seen Boromir or Merry on ebay, I've only been interested in these guys since like june, but still nothing. Also does any one have any pics of the supposed series 3? Thanks for all the feedback too I'm also still interested in price and rarity if anyone knows??

buttheadsmate Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I'm also still interested in price and rarity if anyone knows?? Whilst compiling the Minimate Price Guide I struggled with LOR , I have little affinity to the line & rarely take much notice of them BUT some of the sets are spectacularly rare in comparison to most other Minimates.

Mirymate Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I still find myself angry that they cancelled <snip> You'll find this a common opinion around here on many, many past lines. LotR, Street Fighter, Star Trek, and especially DC mates. We don't take unfinished business well apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cylonchaney Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I think I might have one of those to trade. Check out my want/have list and see if we can work something out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gambitron Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Seeing those pictures of wave 3 pin package makes me even more angry that that wave wasn't released!!!!! Those Ring Wraiths are amazing!! And the Witch King is incredible! Of all the things that were announced and not released this is my most wanted by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadnok Rocksteady Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Man With No Name, did you find a Boromir? I just found this place in New Zealand with boxed figures in stock! http://www.iconix-comics-games.co.nz/lord-of-the-rings-mini-mates-xidg9892.html I emailed the guy yesterday and he's already got back to me with a quote for shipping! Sold! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Here are some one currently on Ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/LORD-OF-THE-RINGS-MINI-MATES-BOROMIR-AND-MERRY-ART-ASYLUM-MOSC-HOBBIT-/280995143722?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item416c9da02a http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lord-of-the-Rings-Minimates-Boromir-Merry-2-pack-By-Art-Asylum-Hobbit-/251184768121?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item3a7bc76479 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadnok Rocksteady Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Why the fudge can't I find these when I search on ebay? Maybe it's a geographical thing, being in Britsville... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zylek Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Seeing the way they made Wily Kit and Kat for Thundercats (2 inch body with shorter legs and arms) it would have cool to have LOTR done the same way, and for that matter the new Hobbit trilogy as well.

monkeycrumb Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I would buy every single LOTR and Hobbit minimate they make if them! I have all the originals, I'd be down for the downscaled newer versions of the LOTR cast! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadnok Rocksteady Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I would buy LOTR series three and Hobbit Minimates in a heartbeat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanester Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 LOTR Minimates were at the top of my list when they became a reality. I still really like them and wished the line had gone further. So much room for Minimate greatness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 If they redid them in the universal scale (with the new short arms & legs for dwarves & hobbits), I'd buy them all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 If DST offered up Tolkien Minimates, from The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings movie trilogies, I'd get sucked into that. However, as others have said, I'd also want them to be in the 2" scale, not 2.5" as the previous line. Start over with a "Legacy" line, kinda like Star Trek, and offer up a mix of characters from all the films. But the human characters should use the 2" bucks, the dwarfs and hobbitses can use the child buck, and the 2.5" buck can be reserved for taller characters like the Uruk-Hai. Zach said DST has a license with Warner Bros. but never said what it was. Maybe this is it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Oh, if they continued from where they left off, I'd buy those, too. I was just saying I want these so much that I'd buy the same characters all over again if they redid them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaipo Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 If they redid them in the universal scale (with the new short arms & legs for dwarves & hobbits), I'd buy them all over again. ditto. I have the original ones, although I love how Sauron towers above everyone else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 My concern is that once again Minimates will wait until the third film is released to offer figures based on the trilogy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky_dive Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 My concern is that once again Minimates will wait until the third film is released to offer figures based on the trilogy. I see that happening for two reasons. One reason is that they may not want to release spoilers, even if this was based onthe book. And two, DST may be able to make another DVD Set. Again, just speculating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
