Come on guys, so far we have a total of six entries.

The prize is a blister pack of Gimli on Dead Uruk-hai - you can't buy him in the shops anymore (currently fetching between £10-15 on eBay). So get your entries in before the 21st of June for a last chance to win this wonderful collector's item.

Hey Dagorlad,

Unfortunately, I think alot of people haven't seen it yet. I for one go straight to the forum, and I'm guessing a lot of others do as well, so they may have not seen the announcement on the home page.

Oh well.

Hmmm, tips? That gives me an idea... I wonder how much tips are worth in Gold Coins? :lol:

I'M JUST KIDDING! :)

Besides, I wouldn't trust my own tips concerning this quiz. Hard stuff.

Thanks again and Potenza is right, you might get lucky.

Cheers

The winner will be randomly selected from the 'most correct' entries. If no one gets all 10 answers correct, then the winner will be taken from those with 9 correct, or 8 correct, or whatever is the highest number of correct answers.
