BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
As usual, there’s a bunch of new stuff hitting this week from DST, but the LotR Cave Troll diorama definitely takes the spotlight.
They have a Cave Troll
If you’re a Lord of the Rings fan, then you likely know that Diamond Select Toys produces a whole bunch of stuff from the iconic property. Chief among those lines are the company’s action figures and statues, and both of them are coming together for one mighty new offering which, of course, is the Cave Troll.
Meant to serve as a diorama piece to display with your Lord of the Rings Select action figures, the Cave Troll is both sized to match the scale and sculpted to compliment the look of the collector toys. Why not just make him a ‘deluxe’ action figure? While we don’t know for sure, it’s likely due to the size and therefore cost that something like that would encompass. But regardless, if you’re looking for a centerpiece for your LotR “Select” shelf, then it certainly seems as though this guy’s going to fit the bill.
Naturally he’s not alone this week either, as also landing in stores is a decent dose of Marvel drops. Those are including new Minimates, as well as a couple of busts.
