It's an exciting time to be a Lord of the Rings fan, with several newly announced projects in the works adapting J.R.R. Tolkien's iconic fantasy series. For starters, The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum—directed by and starring Andy Serkis and written/produced by legends Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh, and Philippa Boyens—has fans counting down the days until its 2027 launch.

The highly anticipated film will bridge the narrative gap between the Hobbit films and The Fellowship of the Ring and centers on Gandalf and Aragorn tracking Gollum before Sauron was able to fully exploit him. Beyond The Hunt for Gollum, Stephen Colbert's recently confirmed project with the working title Shadows of the Past is yet another highly anticipated upcoming release that will take fans through the unexplored beginning chapters of The Fellowship of the Ring books.

And while the Rings of Power television series from Amazon has been quite controversial among fans of the franchise, season 3 is officially set to air this November. All told, there's arguably never been a better time to be a Lord of the Rings fan, and there's yet another release that you may have missed, with the Crown of Gondor officially returning this year (via Pure Arts).

The Lord of the Rings: Crown of Gondor is an official release from Pure Arts that is available to claim now. It's a 1:1 scale replica of the actual Crown of Gondor that's placed on Aragorn's head at the finale of The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, one of the trilogy’s most emotional and triumphant moments.

"The Crown of Gondor, sometimes known as the winged crown or Silver Crown, is made of gold and silver colored metal and sits atop a polyresin LED-lit white city of Minas Tirith," and while the exclusive and standard editions of this collectible have been sold out multiple times over the years since it was first released in 2023, the standard edition appears to have been quietly restocked at Pure Arts.

The standard edition Crown of Gondor is currently available for purchase for $749.99 USD, and includes an officially licensed "movie-perfect metal replica of the Crown of Gondor" on a "hyperdetailed LED-lit Minas Tirith base." The collectible is a must-have for hardcore Lord of the Rings fans, and this appears to be a limited-edition restock of just 1500 units total, so it's best to order yours soon before they're sold out yet again.
