As I just saw there are a lot of below-M100 figures offered by The Man on Ebay at the moment. Some are extremely rare. I hope someone does keep record about those auctions.
Anyway, as you know I won’t bid. For those of you who do I wish good luck.

I’d like to point out that these are among the very last “rare mithril” stocks the Man will sell… so it’s your chance now…

the Man has some future plans but he is selling all that he has left of mithril… from what I understood, it even includes his own private collection…

I can confirm that, Gildor, I won the m7 and Chris said me that it was his last one.

I’m trying m16, but I think that this is coming too high for me.

It’s sad that he’s selling his own collection, though. End of an era?

More than sad that is if it is so. – Well, Gildor, if he really is about also selling his private collection we might even see the MX-Imrahil variant being sold for the first time. I would feel evry sad about that. – But if so, I cannot help it.

i don’t know if he will be selling his WHOLE collection but at the moment he owns no more than 30% of the m range anymore and he prefers them in the hands of collectors as he has different feelings about them indeed , he can’t “consider” them the same way we do…

but he plans for new things after he has no more “mithril”(tm) for sale he will have “other things”

…And along with everyone else I look forward to knowing with certainty what these might be!

Well, that no so sad news if he don’t have the same feelings for his creations than us… But well, that decision of let the minis on collectors better than in his own hands, make me give a bit more (it that’s is possible) of admiration to CT. I don’t have many mails with him, as you, Gildor, or many others. But the few I have, make me feel he is a very nice guy , beyond his magnificent ability as sculptor.

he is I assure you… His own words were : “I don’t need to have them myself anymore”, if i need inspiration or models from former figurines I created…. I use your database now and that’s perfect for me”…

I was glad to know that this database here, helps him as a tool work for inspiration and creation …

Sure these are very nice words coming for The Man himself, and I’m sure that it’s the shared thinking of most of us… Thanks at your great work here, Gildor, Mithril and CT legacy will prevail for years, no matter what the future of Mithril production is.

here was many interesting sentences today… I hope many of them will materialize in the form of interesting and beautiful sculptures… everything what we must do now is – wait….

About C.T. collection… he wrote me once that he has around 30% of all old mithril collection and that he will keep only few of them that he really like…. and that he have all of MS and all new figures and he will keep it.

About Last M7, or M3 I saw that in last few month he sold five M3 figures mostly on private offers not on official auction, but who knows how many M copies he have in this 30%…

Any way I do highly respect C.T. and I hope that he will for a long time in our short life, make us mithril people happy with his works.

Once when C.T. decide to sell his PM range ( new figures ) I hope he’ll send us private e-mail so we could know when figures will be offered on evil eBay… Gildor you could suggest him this idea…. and this is no complicated operation.

Also I hope that those new PM figures would not have sky high prices….

Well, m16 auction has gone wild, so I pass this time. Maybe i’ll have another chance in future, but to pay this amount for one single miniature I must become totally mad.

I did not check the price of M16 how high is it?

as for your comment about informing the collectors about PM releases Thingol… so far it has always been my job to do so on Chris behalf, he does it already with some people and I complete by broadcasting the info to all the MMP members and this will carry on this way I think
