Bring him back!!!
By ewomack
It's too bad that this item is out of stock or no longer being made. The detail on Sauron is amazing (I've read elsewhere that 16-point articulation was used), the chain mail is intricate and looks very metallic in appearance. It almost looks as if an artist made it. Sauron is also infinitely poseable. There's hardly a joint on him that doesn't move in any realistic direction: head, neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, waist, legs, knees, ankles. His left hand bears the One Ring, and his fingers are removeable, as well as the ring. Use caution, because the ring is smaller than most insects and is easily lost, vaccuumed, or even swallowed (though it's SO small that no one would probably choke on it). Seeing this problem, four extra rings were included in the package. This was a good move, for I see myself losing at least one of the infinitesimal rings. Sauron's voice is booming - it's louder than you would think - and it's the voice from the movie. The phrases are great: "I see you!"; "You cannot hide!"; "There is no life in the void" and "Build me an army worthy of Mordor." When he speaks his eyes flash in sympathy with the spoken syllables. In a dark room he's downright creepy. Hopefully Sauron will not be gone for long. For fans of the movie (Tolkien never gave a description of Sauron in physical form, so the figure is based completely on the movie, not anything in the novel), this is the figure to own.

HOLY COW!!! I could not believe I found Sauron! After paying a hefty price for him and waiting for 4 months for him to show up, I finially took him out of his box, eager to see how my own miniature dark lord holds up as an action figure. I am pleased to report that Sauron is one of, if not, the BEST action figure I have ever seen.
This Sauron figure is incredible. The figure is ridiculously detailed. You can put a magnifying glass up to his armor and the swirling patterns are still greatly detailed. Everywhere, it goes on and on on how he is so detailed. He looks exactly like he does in the movie, right down to the ridges of his shoes, to the detailing on his mace. He has an easy time standing up, and the fact that his legs can move really well to pose is great too. His limbs can move around in a realistic manner, but his arms cannot go up too high (Due to the spikey shoulder pads)
Sauron comes with a few things. His mace is the biggest thing he comes with, and it easily fits in his hands, although mine came in slightly bent, and the edges of the spikes are slightly mushed, it dosent really affect it at all. His right hand has removable fingers that you can put the ring in. This is a great feature, and the fingers go on and off fairly easily. They also have an extra pack of one rings, which is great (Mostley because I lost the first ring within a day, those things are tiny!) He also comes with a cape, which is poked with holes to give it a "Used" look
Saurons crowning achievment is his voice. Using the latest technology, Sauron can say 4 fun phrases "I see you!" "Build me an army, worthy of Mordor" "You cannot hide" and "There is no life...in the void" His eyes also light up when he says his phrases. However, the voice is slightly off tone from the phrases from the movie, and the voice is really quite loud. It would be nice if he had a volume control button, but its still cool.
If you are going to buy only one figure from Lord of the Rings, make it Sauron. He is riddiculously detailed, he is great fun to play with, and he is really cool. Get yours before they all dissapear!
The good:Its an 11 inch Sauron figure!Astonishing detailsreally cool weaponremoveable fingers and the one rings are niceBooming voiceEasy to pose
The not so good:2 of the head spikes are slightly bentthe mace is slightly bentthe voice is a little too loudlegs can become loose (But only a little bit)
Summary: If you find him, GRAB THIS GUY!!!

This is a terrific action figure. When I first saw the movie back in December of '01, this was the figure I wanted. But I figured they'd never make him because, firstly, he's only in about a minute of the movie, and secondly, if they kept him in scale with everybody else, he'd be too large and way too detailed to manufacture efficiently and cheaply. Boy am I glad I was wrong. This is a wonderfully detailed sculpt of one of the coolest character designs in recent memory.
I do take some issue with the light-up eyes, however. I don't know what movie everyone else saw, but the Sauron I saw didn't have cheesy glowing eyes. (And neither did Treebeard, for that matter.) I would have been perfectly happy with this figure just talking.
I love the inclusion of a little bag full of extra One Rings, too. They're adorable. ToyBiz knows you're going to lose the one on his finger so it's nice that they give you a few extras. Thanks for thinking of us, ToyBiz. (Ironically, the original One Ring is still on my Sauron's finger ... it's the bag full of extras I lost the day I brought him home!)
My only hope is that ToyBiz considers making a Sauron for their 12" scale line! Wouldn't that be amazing? He'd be about two feet tall! Dare to dream!
