WHOA! What a gorgeous figure! The detail is AMAZING! hes got a Morgul Blade and a regular sword! His knees are a bit unstable but it doesnt really matter much...

Definitely a must-have!

This ringwraith is very large and made quite well. He has a good blend of plastic robes and cloth robes. He comes with two swords. I tried putting the little one in its sheath , but the other sheath and the plastic robes made it really hard. In the end, after pushing to put it in, the sheath just broke off. I'm not too sad, though, because the big one is much better. He doesn't look so clunky with only one sheath. He does have trouble standing up, but I finally found a position that works. He needs to be leaning back just slightly. This is a must have for all LOR collectors.

When I purchased this figure at Toys-R-Us the elderly clerk frowned and said, "Are you sure you want to buy this? He's missing his head." I said, "Duh, he's a RINGWRAITH." Are there actually people who have never seen this film? Holy Cow. Get a clue.

RINGWRAITH is highly detailed in rubber, plastic, and cloth. The actors were laser scanned for this figure. As previously stated by the other reviewers he is a little unstable, which makes him tough to pose. To make him stand on his own you may have to get some DAP FUN-TAK (earthquake putty), put some on the bottom of his feet, and stick him to the shelf. (DAP FUN-TAK is available at Amazon.) I'm thinking about gluing his knees open in a wide-legged stance with JB WELD so I can forget about him falling over. But Sauron would probably be opposed to that idea and I don't want to ruin the figure. His sword should have been molded into heavier plastic. Mine was curved like an Arabian scimitar when I got it. I guess I'll have to straighten it in the microwave. Just kidding. He does have a couple of sheaths to stow his swords, but he looks bizarre without a weapon in his hand. Be CAUTIOUS when putting the large sword in his right hand. It's next to impossible to get the pommel of the large sword past his Kung-Fu grip and there is the risk you may break his hand. He looks awesome on my big TV.

I didn't realize how REAL this figure looked until I ate some magic mushrooms and RINGWRAITH came alive and attacked my talking TREEBEARD. No, really. It scared me silly. But, you'll be relieved to hear that TREEBEARD sent him fleeing back to Mordor.

But seriously, IF YOU COLLECT LORD OF THE RINGS, YOU MUST HAVE THIS FIGURE. IT'S ONE OF THE BEST I'VE SEEN. AND IT'S ONLY 10 BUCKS!!

Not a bad model for the die hard minion of evil fans. The Witchking is decked out in both rubber and cloth robes, giving a nice amount of detail to him. He's got both his Morgul Blade and his regular sword (though mine was a tad wobbly). He is also fully posable but I found that he has a hard time keeping his knees locked, so making him stand on his feet straight was impossible. My only thanks is that the rubber robes help act as a support.
