Mithril Miniature New Release: Funeral Boat of Boromir

Mithril Miniatures new release: Funeral Boat of Boromir



Mithril Miniatures new release: Funeral Boat of Boromir
MS583 - Funeral Boat of Boromir.
Mithril Miniatures has released this exciting new metal collectable Lord of the Rings miniature mid October 2012. The figure is sold unprimed. There is a duplicate discount available for a limited time period.
The boat measures 78mm in length. It was suggested in April 2012 by 'Milo', one of the Mithril Gold Status Fellowship club members.

As Boromir lay dying, he remorsefully confessed to attempting to take the Ring from Frodo, and that his impending death was his penance. He urged Aragorn to save Minas Tirith, as he himself had failed. Aragorn reassured him that he had not failed, that "few have gained such a victory". Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas placed Boromir's body in one of their Elven boats, with his sword, belt, cloak, broken horn, and the weapons of his slain foes about him. They set the boat adrift in the river toward the Falls of Rauros, and sang a "Lament of the Winds" as his funeral song.
