Just been over to the Mathom House to take a look at young Imrahil. That’s a very nice figure of the Prince indeed, though the horse looks a bit wonky in this one picture – assuming that it’s his actual horse? Ah, no, I see there’s a separate picture of the actual horse – ah, that’s much better. If THAT’S his horse then this is going to be a fine figure!

A very nice Prince indeed! Good on ya Master Ent! A wise decision for the wisest of Ents to get him done. A idea like this has to be honoured and therefor I will pay for the drinks of my friend the Ent from now on. Hopefully the rumours won’t drown in to much of this nice liquid!

Ah, do you want to settle the Tree’s tab while you’re feeling generous? I hope you’ve got enough arms and legs that you can afford to part with a few of them…

Hmm the Master Barkeep must have heard of the dwarfen gold…
But you are right, you need a lot of arms and legs to carry it…

You are welcome Master Ent! You also should find something to read and to ponder about in you letterbox.

A footnote on the subject of this years’ Salute figure, by the way, is that after last year’s hoo-hah it isn’t an ‘official’ Mithril figure, just a Prince August figure. Interestingly, however, the early pre-production castings do have the Mithril name on the base and, what’s more interesting, a number…I’m trying to get hold of one of these at the moment, and will let you know if I find out anything more.

Yes, The Prince does indeed look a princely figure and a very welcome addition to the range. There seems to have been a run on battle weary warriors of late – Aragorn and Eomer, and now Imrahil.

I fixed it at the same place, so you might have a short glance at it … rhuommm ….

It’s looking better and better. I only hope that I’m able to afford one when the time comes!

Yes, right. I don’t suppose there are any hidden messages, after all, art isn’t the voice of the ID or anything:|

Ah, a customer at last. Is it your usual ginger beer shandy, Master Ken?

By the way, I was scared almost out of my breeches earlier today by a vicious rumour that my friends the Perrys had been ‘let go’ by GW, but happily it turns out to be untrue – like many rumours! So there are at least some capable hands still at work on the GW LOTR range, even if the worst of the unlamented Mr Morley’s creations have yet to be foisted upon the unsuspecting world. Rumour has it that his Mordor knights are dreadful, though I suppose it would be fairer to wait until I’ve actually seen them before agreeing.

Well master Butterbur, I am a bit exhausted with all the work around those last days… May I have some of your refreshing drinks please? No beer , no… something … fresher…

Oh and please, go pay a visit to the “Mithril Gallery” when you have time, things are evolving well…

Has anybody seen the recruting post I asked Nob to nail at the door? So far , not a lot of replies… I suppose I should take some rest… Make it two drinks master Innkeeper! with little sausage rolls please, you’ll be kind.

Do you want them on a little pointy stick, like the nobs have them? Or are you a fingers man (er, Elf) like all sensible Breelanders?

The old advertisements up in the gallery are particularly interesting. What a shame Mithril never advertises its wares anywhere any more!

Huoooommmm …. yes, I’ve seen the ‘recruiting post’, Master Gildor. …huom … though I have to admit that I didn’t understand it completely … huooom… helping sounds much like being in need of special technical skills that might be beyond my practise …. rhuooommm…. forgive me, please, but you know Ents are not always capable of nowadays’ demands ….. hom … and sometimes even a bit slow in understanding certain matters …. rhuoommm. Oh, and by the by the old papers in the Gallery do not open completely, methinks …. huomrhuuoomm.
I can imagine your exhaustion and tiredness, Master Gildor…… huom …. so it was a good decision to take a rest … I’ll pay for that, Master Barliman …. huommm
