MZ621 GANDALF™ at HELM'S DEEP™ resin miniature
Posted by Michael O'Brien on 1st May 2025
In May 2025, Mithril released its first 32mm scale Fellowship miniature of 2025. This figure represents an important moment in a battle for the future of mankind on Middle-earth. Saruman's forces were attacking the last stronghold of the Rohirrim and his army consisted of Orcs and Dunlendings (humans who held long standing grudges against the people of Rohan).
Gandalf arrived with reinforcements at dawn and used the light to disorientate the Orcs when charging their ranks. The Dunlendings surrendered and the Orcs fled, but to their doom, as the 'forest' that had appeared at their rear overnight consisted of very murderous Huorns and Ents.
This figure consists of two parts, the mounted figure and the staff with partial arm. The base has the regular information engraved in it, including the artists name and date of creation. It is not primed.
One final point is the numbering. There had been a long standing gap in the series, for many years, due to a cancellation of a previous idea, so this figure finally fills that slot in the collection. Its also not a fellowship winner, but chosen by Chris Tubb.
