TTSNB: Balrog Wall Mount

Hey, Jamie. You know how we've been trying to figure out what to do with that one wall in the bedroom...? Well, have I got something for YOU.

Fresh from the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy, it's The Balrog Wallmount.

That's right, a "to scale" Balrog head. You, too, can enjoy the basilisk stare of the hellish beast from the time-before-time cast upon you while you're putting on your socks, folding laundry, and saying your vespers.


You can sleep tight knowing the unfathomable face of rage and destruction is gazing upon you

It's 48" long, 40" high, and 26" deep. And only $1800 before S&H. And it features the to-scale likeness of the only movie monster since I saw John Carpenter's The Thing in college to genuinely give me the heebie-jeebies. So why WOULDN'T I want this in my house?

I make fun, but if I owned a club, this would totally hang right over the bar. Also, it would give me an opportunity to shout "You shall not pass!" whenever I felt like it.

The only thing that would make this more horrifying is if it somehow had the ability to shoot flames out of its mouth (and not be a fire hazard).

Wow...

I think it does need to be hung over a fireplace.

Shadow... and Flame...

True, but you'd need a fireplace about six or seven feet wide to accomodate the damn thing.

Fly, you fools!

Even more horrifying might be a 4 or 5 foot tall replica of Mel or Lucy's head.

Especially with the "to-scale" tennis ball we would have to provide the head.
