Rohan Warriors $52 €41 £31.50
“It is the hardy Rohan Warriors who take up arms and armour to defend Edoras from Wulf’s onslaught. They are armed with an assortment of bows, hand weapons, and the spears that they famously hurl at their foes. These warriors are the backbone of many an army from the Forces of Good, and this plastic kit contains 24 warriors.”
Hill Tribesmen $52 €41 £31.50
“The hills to the west of Rohan are filled with numerous fractured tribes. Over the years they have developed a hatred of the Rohirrim, leading raids against the villages with little success.

This kit builds 24 plastic Hill Tribesmen, armed with a variety of weapons including spears, two handed weapons, bows, and hand weapons.”
Great Eagles $58 €42 £34
