See here: http://www.redbeanstudio.net/images/game1.jpg

Free set of weapons to the first correct answer (one answer per person, please).

Hint 1: With the exception of 'I', all of them are characters from the Lord of the Rings universe athough some of whom didn't make it to the big screen.

Hint 2: Some of these minifigs may already have appeared in my website in the past, but I present a new version of them here.

Any comments regarding their designs will also be appreciated. Thank you.

(Can I guess again?)


A is Dernhelm

B is a council Elf.. :P

C is Gamling or Hama

D is indeed Cirdan.

E and F are Elrond's sons - their names slipped my mind at this moment.

G is someone from the council! (Gildor?)

H is Eomer.

I is John Wayne

hehehehe

Ok, more hints:

A is from Rohan and appeared in this form in the movie (RotK).

B is an elf (I do all my elves with blue eyes), not in the movies.

C is from Rohan as well (I try to do his armor in the same style as other Rohan characters), not in the movies.

D is indeed Cirdan.

E and F are Elrond's sons - their names slipped my mind at this moment.

G also appeared in the movie in this form, though only very briefly.

H is Eomer.

I is not Wyatt Earp (notice no badge?). Think famous actors in famous Western movies (quite old), his costume I copied directly out of the movie.

Thanks for playing.

Elfhelm? About the only other named ridder that comes to mind is Grimbold.
B is an elf (I do all my elves with blue eyes), not in the movies.
Glorfindel?
C is from Rohan as well (I try to do his armor in the same style as other Rohan characters), not in the movies.
If he isn't he should be: Helm Hammerhand.
D is indeed Cirdan.
E and F are Elrond's sons - their names slipped my mind at this moment.
Elladan and Elrohir, if memory serves me.
G also appeared in the movie in this form, though only very briefly.
Theodred?
H is Eomer.
I is not Wyatt Earp (notice no badge?). Think famous actors in famous Western movies (quite old), his costume I copied directly out of the movie.
Hmmm, my guess would be the same movie - Kirk Douglas as Doc Holiday, though it sounds more like you are insinuating it is a John Wayne part.

Gil Galad (total shot in the dark, but I love that name :) )

Helm
D is indeed Cirdan.

Grima? I really don't remember the movies as well as anyone else here. But I'm guessing Grima. So there.

C: Erkenbrand
D: Cirdan
E/F: Elrond's twin sons
G: Theodred
H: Eomer
I: Robert Redford as Butch Cassidy!!

Thanks!
