I can see two boxes, it looks like a set of 2 eagles, and then a set with just gwhair in?

Is that a peak at January's WD? Looks like I'm guessing one fine cast Gwahier and a box of plastic eagles? I'd be nice if he was plastic too |

Alright, that explains why the Eagles weren't in the February release lot... Under the second box you can see a very thin outline of another picture. I'm thinking finecast clampack. Which brings us to what's left from the films: Click to: Show Anything else I'm missing? Obviously Click to: Show |

So there's gonna be a release virtually every month then? That sounds good. I have refrained from closely reading Hurin's post since I haven't seen the 1st film. |

Eagles! The eagles are coming! Any guesses as to the prices? I'd assume the same as the plastic Mordor/Isengard Troll I'll be picking up at least two no matter what

Brilliant find, I have a the original metal eagle, great model, enjoyable to paint. Any idea what the clam shell will be? |

Please let the eagles be plastic. Please please please. |

It looks like the eagles come in boxes of two, I'm hoping for £15-20 if it's one, and £30 for two |

I've blown up the original picture. The bottom one looks like a hand holding a weapon of some sort:  Also the eagle box suggests 2 eagles in the box. |

I'm excited about the eagles but will really look hard at the quality AND price. The eagles simmuskhan found and is using are my new baseline. I was going to see about ordering some but wanted to give GW a chance, if only because of the off chance the Hobbit may rekindle them to actually support official tournaments in the North East USA. Literally...no other reason of loyalty. |

Please let them be affordable... The way GWS are going these will be way too much for what they are... Come lower the prices and get people playing and collecting again!! 1/2 the price and I would buy hundreds of figures!!!! |

Yeah...I still have 2 boxes of WEs unpainted (got them when going for a 2000pt WotR Mirkwood force) but would really like to get some armored members of the force rather than pulling in Galadrhim (which I like...but there's a lot of them around in other people's lists). |

The bottom pic is definitely Gwaihir. You only have to compare the pic here with the photos on pages 81 and 243 of The Hobbit rulebook to see the similarities. |

So let the speculating begin... how much are the eagles going to cost? The trolls were $85 so I'll set the mark right near there at $75. |
