Mirkwood Rangers

Ten differently posed plastic Elves carry curved bows and leaf-bladed knives. Crouching, turning and tracking poses convey a loose woodland warband. Clever assembly creates overlapping fabric without making construction difficult. Adam connects those details to their role patrolling the forest against the Necromancer’s creatures.

Palace Guards

Ten armoured Elves contrast with the Rangers through formal poses and concealed faces. Six carry spears and four have blades with shields. Two extra shields offer further equipment choices. Layered armour and swirling cloaks portray the disciplined guardians of Thranduil’s court.

Legolas Greenleaf

Legolas balances on a hollow log with woodland equipment and armoured shoulders. Those clothes link him to both the Rangers and the royal guard. Bow, quiver and finely layered chainmail reward close inspection. The plastic pose conveys an agile warrior travelling beyond the security of the court.
