The Collection Grows - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I discovered an interesting LotR collectible item in a little shop in Heidelberg recently - 3-D figures lasered into glass cubes! (The company manufactures lots of other figures, and what I bought was not LotR, but I thought it would be interesting to show to all of you.) Alas, the website pictures can't show the astonishing detail and the wonderful effect of the figures, which consist of thousands of tiny dots and can be viewed from all sides. The ring, floating diagonally in the glass cube, looks particularly spectacular. The site is in German, but you'll see the "Special: Lord of the Rings" link which takes you to that page. Enjoy!
