I believe the armored figure was Sauron, and that the whole flaming cat eye trapped on that tall tower was a misinterpretation of Sauron's Eye. For all we know, Sauron could have actually had a semi-physical form (missing a finger of course!) and his eye(s) could have been flaming.<P>P.S. Poor git! He couldn't flick anyone off again!
