Play Along Toys AOME LOTR - Weapons and Warriors #48201 Uruk-hai Battering Ram - Pt 2 Pose 1

Besides the battering ram and four figures, the set comes with several accessories: two pikes, a crossbow, and one shield. The crossbow has a peg underneath it, but it does not fit in any of these figures hands in a natural, organic way. Unlike other Play Along figures, the bases to these four are glued or fused to the feet, ostensibly to make it 'easier' to attach them to and pose with the battering ram.

The peg is a bit hard to see - it's a little way more than half-way down the stock.

 ***CORRECTION TO URUK-HAI SIEGE BALLISTA***

A quick correction to the Uruk-hai Siege Ballista we just covered the past few days. I had it posted as set #48200: that is the blanket number for the Weapons and Warriors series. The set number is #48202.

 And now we continue our regularly scheduled programming. 

Somewhere along the line over the past 20-ish years, I managed to gather up three of these Battering Ram sets. Plus, there's one included in the Helm's Deep Super Deluxe Set for a total of four. So here I am after all these years trying to figure out why I bought so many and it hit me that it was probably to get the four Uruk-hai figures in each set. In addition to the figures, there are extra accessories included, and they would be welcome additions to the Uruk-hai army assailing Helm's Deep - or they can be used in an Attack at Amon-hen scenario.

Hong Kong (Unk Mfr) 45mm German Infantry - Gray SP - Pt 1

This has been a good year for catching up photographing and posting my old toys - things that have been laying out in The Cave forever. Case in point: this set of 45mm German infantry. Bought years ago as opponents to my Marx and Payton 45mm GI's, this set was made in Hong Kong by an unknown manufacturer. The sculpts are a bit crude but you can look at them and say, "Those are Germans", and that works for me. Mine are in 'played with' condition and there is some breakage - mostly to the tips of the rifles or MGs, but overall it's still a nice grouping.

My set has six poses. Were there more? Don't know.

Let's Chat: Play Along Toys - Uruk-hai Siege Ballista at Helm's Deep

The basis for this is of course the set I just posted of Play Along Toys Uruk-hai Siege Ballista. Here's the photo the Chat is based on, and what Chat gave me when prompted to place the siege ballista before the battlements of Helm's Deep.
