"One does not simply walk into Mordor"
Series 5 of Diamond Select's Lord of the Rings 7-inch figures will be made up of Boromir and the Urak Hai hunting part leader, Lurtz. The release of Boromir means we now have 6 members of the original Fellowship, with the Hobbits Sam, Merry, and Pippin the ones currently missing.
Boromir is not shown with any accessories - which is disappointing - as he should at least come with his horn and potentially sword & shield. These may be included by the time we reach release. Boromir is also shown with his Lothlorien Cloak, something that was dropped from the other Fellowship figures.
Lurtz too is shown without accessories and looks like it re-uses some parts from the Series 4 Uruk Hai figure. Again we'd hope Lurtz would come with his bow by the time he is released. Both figures come in the window box format as seen with the other LOTR figures to date, there is no BAF with Diamond apparently dropping this format after the Series 1-3 Sauron figure.
The figures are listed as a Q2 release on the Diamond Select site, whereas Big Bad Toy Store have the release in July 2023. Check out our Diamond Select Database to see all of the Lord of the Rings releases as well as all the other Select Action Figure releases from Diamond.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
