Woohoo!

The RotKEE comes with a model of Minas Tirith and you can get Minas Morgul with the gift set.

Okay, I think I misinterpreted: you get Minas Tirith with the gift set and if you buy the gift set you can buy Minas Morgul too. (Not a gift with purchase.)

TORN also says that you can pre-order now at Amazon and I am not finding that.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Yay! I like those gift set goodies. I wasn't that keen on the Gollum statue that came with TTT. I would have much rather had something Rohirric, like my own personal Eomer or something.

Who didn't want their own personal Eomer?

I think that this is the best picture.

(There is also a picture of the RotKEE case, discs in front, the Minas Tirith thingy and something that says "Lord of the Rings Symphony" does that mean that the EE of the soundtrack is coming out in December too?)

I answer my own question: Nope.

Howard Shore's website says:

23.04 Creating the LOTR Symphony DVD
New Line Home Entertainment are currently displaying the new Return of the King: Collector's Set at this years ComicCon event. The set will include the four-disc extended edition of the film, along with a Sideshow/Weta statue of Minas Tirith and a Howard Shore Creating the Lord of the Rings Symphony DVD. The set is expeceted to go on sale in December. p.s. Apparently, I am too excited to make a correct link.

p.p.s. really really unable to correctly link, but I think it's okay now.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm getting no love from amazon on the pre-order. Left my e-mail to be notified when the extended edition becomes available, though.

Thanks for the link, sumi! Want Minas Tirith. Want now.

Me too!!!

And it's not just Minas Tirith -- it's storage. So -- practical. (In case anyone needs crazy justification for purchasing the gift set.)

TORN also says that you can pre-order now at Amazon and I am not finding that.

I saw a link to preorder from the studio at TORN, but when I looked more carefully, it actually appeared to be an old ad for preordering TTEE. Foiled again! Perhaps the same thing happened to you with Amazon.
