Most likely will be coming down in my LOTR Costume. Nah! For once I'm not gonna be Arwen or Galadriel or Haldir, but just a humble Hobbit Lass.

Where got MR Swords for Aragorn? Only United Cutlery for both and also Noble Collection for Anduril lah! And I HIGHLY don't recommand using it to Sword Fight as they both meant for display and regular holding on, light swinging etc etc. The Blade is Rat-Tail which means the part going into the handle is not that much. The REAL McCoy is another story altogether of course as it made like a real weapon; Anduril is so balanced that you can balance the whole sword with the center point between the blade and Crossguard(?)

Hi, I agree with Haldir that you can only find replicas of swords from UC. They are very nice but unfortunately not combat or stage ready. A few blows might loosen its tang a little and your sword will really get out of balance. And there are also some legal issues... some coppers and organisers may attempt to make your life hell for carrying a blade. May I suggest that you make a sword out of wood? ;D That is what we did for a few years running and surprisingly, it took quite a number hard knocks without getting toooo damaged.

Actually, I stand corrected. There IS a MR LotR sword... I just got an email from a local retailer telling me that Sting FX will be coming in. *drools*
I don't think they have the ranger sword yet... but who knows... maybe they need Anduril to glow a bit too. ;D

If I remember correctly, MR only produce FX Sting and Glowing Sauron Finger. Got a couple other stuffs in plans like the "Lightbulb Of Doom" but nothing much currently. Seriously for LOTR, MR only produce FX/Glowing stuffs. Anyhow, my advice, try to avoid bring a sword like Strider Ranger Sword or Anduril if it don't have a Scabbard. I seldom do it to my Narsil, Ranger Sword and Witchking and when I do, I wrap them up with cloth and wrap the bottom edge with lots of tissue and masking tape to maintain its sharpness. ;D

I just got an email from a local retailer telling me that Sting FX will be coming in. *drools* Had the chance to buy the MR FX Sting Sword for around RM300 including shipping last year(actually the shipping was 3/4 of the total amount), but passed on it because needed the $$$ for SW stuff...Maybe I should've gotten it...
It was one of those deals where you need to order directly from MR and enter a special code...got the code from a member in a forum...
Oh well...
