I love lotr foils. I like the ones that only have a few pieces foil like just the armor on an uruk or something. Or the foil aragorns bow from fotr.

So which is your favorite one?

Theres so many I like I really cant think of which is my favorite.

I think my favorites so far that ive seen and own would be foil the one ring isildur's bane. When you look at it and can see the writing lite up in the ring i feel as if im frodo holding the ring right after gandalf pulls it from the fireplace.
Also i love all the arwen foils.

I just pulled a Black Lord foil and its way cool. Foil Citadel of the Stars is awesome aswell.

Yeah the black lord is very nice. have about 10

The black lord thats the 12o9 is also cool with the gold highlights.

My favorite foil would be the first (and only) foil I received in a tournament, Shadow's Reach.

Sites! Eastemnet Gullies!

Risk a Little light is an awesome foil

OneFathom · « **Reply #7 on:** September 03, 2008, 07:22:59 AM »

It would be tough to pick just one...I'm a fan of all foils in general. Servant of the Secret Fire would settle at the top of the list for sure, though.

Gotta be the MoM rare Balrog

swarmingUwithGoblins · « **Reply #9 on:** September 03, 2008, 07:55:46 AM »

yes foil rare balrong from MoM is nice. Also yeah all the sites are nice. I Like the prancing pony because the letters on the sign are foil

First thing what I did when me and my bros decide to make comeback to the wonderful world of LotR TCG after many years, I acquire this card

and why? IB foil

back in FotR block, hey it was THE One Ring and everyone wanted it but sadly this game totally died here where I live around when tTT was released so if I'm not wrong only two copys of IB foil was pulled before this game was burried in our region so obvious everyone couldn't get one

I love my anduril fotw just cause its cool
I also like foil dead man...

The Witch-king, Lord of Angmar is just one of the many cards with awesome foiled backgrounds (and this one is simpler than most), but it's a neat effect seeing the sky all weird as he's reaching out for you.

And for one that almost never makes these lists - Crack Into Rubble. It's cool seeing the water shimmering as it's spouting from the cracks.

I have to say Gandalf, Powerful Guide Masterworks FOIL that I just pulled.

I like his shiny beard!

Although for cool background FOIL-ness, Watcher at Sarn Ford is pretty neat as well. So's Frodo, Tired Traveller.

I just have to add Mysterious Wizard. Go shiny smoke! The non-FOIL silhouette surrounded by FOIL-ness is pretty neat.

The PG MW foil is pretty groovy.

I would have to say my favorite is either my thorongil mw foil or my lurtz servant of isengard foil.

FingolfinFinwe · « **Reply #17 on:** September 03, 2008, 07:18:09 PM »

oo I have the Thorongil MW and it is VERY tasty

I love my Faramir, Captain of Gondor foil

sickofpalantirs · « **Reply #19 on:** September 04, 2008, 10:11:28 AM »

I actually really like Garrison of Osgiliath foil...I love shiny armor...
mysterious wizard is cool, as is sleep cahradrhas

TheJord · « **Reply #20 on:** September 04, 2008, 12:52:02 PM »

As I looked through my collection I found the best ever

FOIL King's Mail

Elrohir · « **Reply #21 on:** September 04, 2008, 01:33:43 PM »

Galadriel, Lady of Light

I like this picture, and if foil, it is quite much more impressing

sickofpalantirs · « **Reply #22 on:** September 05, 2008, 11:32:24 AM »

close ES< but its coat of mail

king mail is cool though.

Shieldmaiden · « **Reply #23 on:** September 06, 2008, 12:37:32 AM »

Yeah, I like Coat Of Mail too! But the funniest foil has to be Hobbit Farmer. They foiled the pig!

Noldonur · « **Reply #24 on:** September 08, 2008, 07:55:52 AM »

I'll have to third Coat of Mail, especially since I have it, too
