Lord of the Rings Collectors Models

This one might get disputed a bit but the article reads like advertisement. As these two Google searches indicate  neither the artist nor the publisher have much notability. There's no sign of reliable third-party sources about these figurines. Pascal.Tesson 00:23, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I agree with the nom that it seems like an advert. If fact, it reads a lot like the "about us" section on a company website. Soltak | Talk 00:37, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Simply self-promotion, with no evidence of notability. Chairman S. Talk  Contribs  01:19, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - No notability asserted either. There have been hundreds of LotR action figures, sculptures, and models and these do not seem to assert why these are different other than a limited number of countries in which they were released. If there were a broader LotR merchandising article or the like, perhaps this subject is better suited there. אמר Steve Caruso ( desk / AMA ) •  Give Back Our Membership!  02:53, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. MER-C 03:16, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per Soltak.  Gan fon  04:17, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep, these are claimed to be "collectors models" thus surely there must have been reviews on them in collector's magazines? This is at least a claim to notability. Mathmo Talk 10:45, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per above comments. Keep if notability is asserted. --  A nas  Talk? 12:34, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Not relevant to wikipedia, wikipedia is meant to be a place of reference not about lord of the rings stuff. Telly   addict  17:30, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * These models are inherently notable as unique and significant elements of the LOTR-universe figurine collection. In addition, they are mentioned in several fan guides, including one with an introduction by Christopher Tolkien.  If we delete this article, we will have to delete all articles about figurines.  Just kidding, Delete. - Dmz5  *Edits**Talk* 22:03, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Congratulations. Call me stupid but you really had me there for a second... Pascal.Tesson 22:22, 3 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete I'd pause if this were an article about fantasy models or figurines in general or maybe even pertaining to a certain subgenre.  But an entire advert-like article devoted to one particular line of models?  As above, some of this could exist in a LotR merchandise article or the like, but not in its current form.

 * Delete - advertising article. Also, bravo Dmz5. - Davidjk (msg+edits) 23:08, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete advertisement-it looks like an ad, smells like an ad so it must be.--John Lake 01:02, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Walks and talks like an ad Tuvok ^Talk 12:34, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Whether this is an advert of not, it fails the notability test. Delete. WMMartin 16:03, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
