Lord of the Rings Toys

So I've been moving my collection to the basement (still on display, just displaced) for the past two weekends in between bouts of Skyrim, and I remembered how much I like my LOTR collection. I don't have every figure, but I did end up with lots, and while dusting them off and putting them back on shelves in a new arrangment, I was struck by how awesome most of them are.
They're a great mix of articulation and detail, and really show what Toy Biz was capable of in their prime. It's really a shame that they don't exist anymore and that their other great line (Marvel Legends) was taken over and sunk by Hasbro.
Speaking of Hasbro lines that kind of suck now, most of the Transformer Classics figures were poo, weren't they? I put several in tupperwares rather than move them down for redisplay, but I honestly want to put more of them away once I started putting them on shelves.
Anyway, am I the only one here who collected those and still has them?
