See the link

A part of it was already revealed, but metal uruk scouts, heroes of Helm's Deep and metal warg riders are new I tink.

May be hard to resist some of those

The mounted heroes are definitely tempting but I will pass this time so I can clear my backlog.

I might just break down and order that Gamling.

The crebain are also also up for pre-order at Forge World.

Finally, you can check out the winning armies from the 2020 Middle Earth Grand Tournament held back in March:

Would the shut-down of GW for 3 weeks change anything for the made to order?

See: https://www.warhammer-community.com/202 ... nker-down/

I expect it will be delayed, yes.

This is exciting news, although I expect the shut down will have some impact. I missed the last round, can anyway advise what the pricing is like for these Made to Order releases? Do you pay a premium?

The 'haldir elves' were 20 euros, I think the single model mounted heroes were 15, not 100% sure..
I suppose the metal ents will be around 40 (I don't have prices numbers, it's an educated guess), so I will guess a bit more: the metal wargs: probably around 25~30, metal scouts 30~40? Gimli, €12, heroes of helms deep 45~50, battering ram, that's a difficult one, I'm not sure what the original price was... so this guess is less educated, somewhere between 25 and 35 euros?...

Paying a premium? A little bit, yes. This is an opportunity for collectors and players to get those favorite long out of print sculpts. The price has gone up on some metal models considerably since they were first released, but that was 15 or 20 years ago! Compared to what some of these sell for on the secondhand market, it can be a steal. I consider the prices comparable with current Forge World models.

Did these go live? Didn't see a specific link

slinky · **Posted:** Mon Mar 30, 2020 5:18 pm

Not yet, delayed by the GW factory shut down I believe.

What is that ent? Or is it a huorn? I don't recognize it. What's it from?

The ent in the made-to-order picture is just the basic metal ent that Games Workshop sold before they made the plastic ent kit that's currently available. Not sure exactly when it was released, but I have one in the cupboard!

The ent is indeed the metal one GW released prior to the current plastic kit. It's from the second time GW covered the events of the Two Towers (the Journeybooks) so around 2006/7.

Hmm, strange I don't remember it.

When do these come out, any idea? I don't want to miss them. I'd like to get that mounted Legolas, at least. Are they from GW or Forge World?

slinky · **Posted:** Tue May 19, 2020 10:04 am

They will be from GW, but I don't think we have seen a revised date, yet, I am guessing it's fairly low down their list of priorities

I like the sculpt on that Mounted Legolas better than the one currently available in the three pack.

Still hope that these will be back up for order soon, desperately want the Uruk ram and Gimli.

"There’s no pre-order window on these kits, they’re available right from next Saturday. Act quickly though, as there are a limited number of each so they’re sure to sell out fast."

And they're up!
