OG Weta go for big money nowadays, I much prefer their collaboration with Sideshow Collectibles or “Sideshow Weta” for their best miniature scale models, particularly of the Mordor variety (yes I am biased). Missed my chance to grab them cheap years ago, now they are too expensive for me to justify. I suppose they wouldn’t go amiss amongst the maces, flails and other instruments of the macarbre that litter my dwellings… just too pricey.

Games Workshop LOTR miniatures are fun too, especially the Orc/Goblin sets, if you are so inclined.

I'm pretty happy seeing Uglûk currently leading the poll. He is undoubtedly worthy to be loved as much.

I feel guilty thirsting for the Moria Orcs this much recently. Kinda feels like "cheating" at this point. 😂 Ay, I doubt Uglûk would mind... he'd see the Moria orcs as "maggots" or "pets" at tops anyway.

By the way, this one is also from the movies, but has been cut out:


- Gosh, I want to hug 'em all. -

Now I know where one of these photos are came from! I've received my order today, and the magazin is amazing! We've got a couple of shots of the Moria Orc we haven't seen on screen before. Just a couple of shots, not all to show a couple of exclusive photos of them:




Also, why do I feel like that the guy on the 3.) and 4.) image is actually the same one on the 2.) ? Like they look quite alike. If so, I'm truly sad these scenes has been cut off of him. He was the most handsome among all!

Also, an extra, because why not; look at them go:


I feel like setting up a whole space just for them at some point. Right now they are fine where they are. I already have plans for the design I plan for where they should stay.

They tortured me and killed many of my loved ones, sooooo...

I make them pay accordingly. 😊

I was about to say that one of the funniest fate was Maehdros' and Boromir's. But I bet Sauron has the strength and the divine creativity how to torture living beings... such a talent... like the one guy who's wife was dead, but the husband didn't know it yet, and Sauron, as the generous Dark Lord he was, sent him after his wife. I love him for reasons you know? ❤️ I'd gladly take notes in the back, just to tell them to my orc boys later on, lol.

And I'm sure that captives taken by orcs got their fair share of joy too. I'm so jealous. 😊
-Plus I can give them really good recipes for man-flesh. Oh I can promise 'em that!-
 
My favorite Orc comes from a scene in PJ's films.
An unnamed Orc, he's in just one scene, just shortly before the demise of Boromir.
A group of Orcs is running down the hill Among them is this rather chubby-looking orc, trundling apace, looking something like a duck... waddling back and forth a bit in his Orc-garb. Looks like he's quite uncomfortable about the whole thing.

I don't know why, but I can't watch the film without looking for him. He just strikes me as somehow 'out of place.'

(Plus, given his apparent girth, looks like he'd be easy to catch and ripe for a good stomping.)
 
The fact that a couple of orcs possibly has been present when Sauron was torturing captives -like Gollum's- makes me more jelly. They must have seen things I'd eagerly watch during my breakfast.

Sincerely no one had such an amazing humor like the "Darksiders". Oh, and it's even more funnier that orcs did mock Sauron for his filthy lulgijak look, and got to live an another work day. 😂🍷 To think his orcs were bullying him for his "fancy" elf-look as Annatar. They are too real for that -ay, some jokes worth to cast even if it cost you your life-.


Mairon: "THIS IS SEXY IN ELVEN SOCIETY OKAY???"
Orcs: *wheeze* sure... *cackle* whatever you say boss *uproar orcish laughter filling the room*

Nah, Sauron is not a villain. He can't be. Neither the orcs. Period.

Sounds like a fun target for a Maedhros-stabbing too!

hhmmmm....
Yes, a good target. But I think Maedhroses take pleasure in the "challenge" of the contest as well.
Not much challenge in this particular Orc.
Ents take their pleasure from the stomp event alone, and this would be a juicy one..
