... my favorite Arwen companion picture is probably the one on Elven Rider, in a someone-you-can-relax-around class of her own.

Aragorn has seen better days, too. Honestly, what were people's reactions the first time they saw Aragorn, Ranger of the North? After all those, the version in Age's End was a shock.

Elven Rider is really the only hot Arwen picture to me. I am not the biggest Liv Tyler fan, but Arwen, Elven Rider is definitely in a class of her own.

I think Aragorn, Ranger of the North was a sweet picture. Anyways, you already had Aragorn, King In Exile for the "classy" Aragorn look.

aragorn, ranger of the north was a sweet shot.  King in exile is a personal favorite of mine as well.  I also have a soft spot for 0P23.  it has an, "Off to the slaughter house to die" feel to it.

Citadel of Minas Tirith is wonderful and when it comes to Aragorn pics I think I would pick Heir to the White City...

Well... to my mind comes:

Staff assunder (foil) - epic!
Gandalf Powerful Guide (O) MW-foil - amazing!
Radagast's Staff
The Balrog, DoM
Saruman of many Colours (this freezing gaze of Saruman, brrr)
and of course many of the foil sites - they're just great too!

- also I have to add is, that german foils look way better than the english ones (other printing station - far better quality [colours, foiling])
Mithrandir I am known to the Elves, Tharkun to the dwarves; Olorin was the name in my youth in the West which is forgotten, in the South Incanus, in the North Gandalf; into the East I will not go."

That's funny...the French foils I have may have more vibrant colors, but the foil is not lined up with the card.

I am glad to see my point of view confirmed  :up:  :)

Unfortuneately, there are no german cards since set 14  :(

I totally forgot about that one. It's a great pic.

*thinks* Creep.

I think HttWC and HttToG - sure, even Thorongil - were the top 3 Gorn shots. It's gotta be that manly, unkempt hair paired with the stern, yet sophisticated countenance. The ladies must go crazy.
MY fav card is still my Faramir, CoG FOIL. First Foil Rare I ever opened, and it was even worth quite a bit way back when.

I nominate Northern Ithilien as the coolest site foil. Thoughts?

I still think The Green Dragon Inn (foil) is better.
