Hi everyone,

I joined the club with you all yesterday!

I was hoping that I could get some information from the group on some things on mods:

1. What are the more popular mods that are available for LOTR? Is there something that is considered a "must-have"? (Note, I already have a ColorDMD on the way). Things that look interesting to me are the POTD mod and the Palantir mod.

2. Are there parts specific to the game to keep on-hand? It seems that the VUK switches are a constant source of issue. Anything else noticeable?

3. One final question: I've noticed when the Balrog moves, the motor makes a pretty loud sound. Is that a normal sound? If not, is there any maintenance that can be done to decrease the sound. If needed, I can take a video to see if that's normal.

I glad you bought those instead of me...Almost pulled that trigger.

You would think someone with a 3D printer could make some...hint....hint...

ROMs would be probably the easiest place to start.

Pull and re-seat first. Then burn/replace if that doesn't seem to help.

I'm think it's a 2-56 nut, but not 100% sure...

As Maken said, it's completely a personal opinion. I actually like the LED version more but.

You guys with your POTD DIYs are making me jealous!
