Lord of the Rings Mini Statue Skull of a Misty Mountain Goblin 14 cm
Lord of the Rings Mini Statue Skull of a Misty Mountain Goblin 14 cm
Generations of limited bloodlines and malnourishment have left their mark, as its irregular cranial structure, sunken nasal cavity, and brittle bone composition speak to a sheltered life spent in squalor. The stunted bone growth and diminutive dentition hint at a diet of whatever scraps could be stolen or stripped from unwary travellers that weren't already hoarded by the despotic Goblin-king. A grim relic of the wretched goblins who once infested Goblin-town, this specimen offers a rare glimpse into the desperate and degenerate denizens of the Misty Mountains; grotesque in their asymmetry and aberrant in their proportions.- Made primarily from polystone;- Jaw made from polyurethane;- Based on goblins from the Misty Mountains, as seen in The Hobbit;- Obsidian-like stand makes this skull feel like an artifact straight out of the study of Saruman™;- Physically sculpted by Weta Workshop Senior Sculptor and Middle-earth veteran Jamie Beswarick.Product size: 6,5 x 14 x 6,5 cm

Viscounts of the West Kingdom
Viscounts of the West Kingdom
Viscounts of the West Kingdom Viscounts of the West Kingdom is set at a time when the King's reign began to decline, circa 980 AD. Choosing peace over prosperity, our once strong King began offering our enemies gold and land to lay down their axes. But peace is a tenuous affair. As poverty spread, many people lost faith in his ability to lead and sought independence from the crown. Since finding favour in his courts, our future has also become uncertain. As viscounts, we must be wise and decisive. Loyalty is to be upheld, but gaining favour among the people must be our priority, should there be a sudden shift in power.The aim of Viscounts of the West Kingdom is to be the player with the most victory points (VP) at game's end. Points are gained by constructing buildings, writing manuscripts, working in the castle and acquiring deeds for new land.
