Re: Strider's Bow

The thing to remember with this is it probably was not made as a functional bow. Probably some were rubber for falling scenes and some were wood that could fire an arrow short ways out of frame such as in Moria scenes, character wise it does look to be for small game and deer so 40-50 libs more then...

Re: Strider's Bow

I can e-mail them to you if you want sure. Most are from my own collection of items such as premium format figures and such. When it comes to Strider/ Aragorn collectables. I have it.

Strider's Bow

Greetings all, I had spoken to Gondian about this last year but I believe he may have fallen back with other projects here. I am looking to commission a replica or as close as I can to Strider's bow as seen the PJ films. I have plenty of images and can give the length it needs to be when unstrung. I...

Re: Summer cabin fever.

I don't wear much more then a shirt an...
