I got this ring for free when I bought the Gold edition of Shadow of War, and rightly so, considering I paid $80 for the game (Which was reduced from $100 because of their awesome Gamer's Club membership). The ring granted me nigh-limitless power, I've used it several times to crush my enemies and I can't wait to defeat my real life nemesis, this guy, Bob, that I work with. He's doomed and he doesn't even know it yet! I would have given it 5 stars if it wasn't for the constant attacks from Ring Wraiths both at home and at work. Those are getting really annoying. I also thought the ring would turn me invisible, but apparently there are only one of those, so that was disappointing. All in all, great product. I would have paid $100 for the ring by itself, but if you don't tell Best Buy, I won't either!

The ring looks really nice and is a nice collectible. It is made of a light weight metal. As a piece of jewelry, it is on the small side and only those with small fingers would be able to wear it. It barely fits on my pinky and most of the characters in Middle Earth would find this ring impossible to wear. It would work nicely on a necklace, which makes that fact that the ring does not even come with a cheap chain a disappointment. Overall, it is best used as a solid display piece or a potential necklace item.

As far as I can tell, the inscription on this is indeed the one from the game and not a copy of the One Ring in silver. From a little research, it's the same inscription from the last two lines of the Ithildin door poem from the first game. The translation given by Monolith for the inscription is "You shall have light undiminished/ All shall fear me and rejoice." As to quality, it does not look cheap and the paint on the blue inscription looks nice. I cannot attest to what alloy it is made of, because there appear to be no markings or information on the material on the packaging.

Not too much to add on what's already been said, but it is a welcome added bonus to come with a game, instead of the usual cosmetic dlc add-on's. It's a good quality replica and something neat to have as a collector's item, and again, especially as something that came free as an added bonus for buying the game.

I'm disappointed that i did not become invisible while wearing this product. Glad I found out now before doing something stupid like going without clothes. Jokes aside it's a nice little prop for free with the game but maybe a little better packaging cause it just looks like a casual throwaway item

I wasn't expecting anything at all from this as it was a free item with a game purchase, so consider that when reading the review. That said, this is a solid feeling metal ring with a nice inscription and a nice overall quality. I frankly expected a plastic ring but was pleasantly surprised.

Amidst my friends and I who all bought Shadow of War, the Ring of Power replica is either too small to fit over your kunckle or too large to stay on your hand. If you want to wear this on your finger don't get your hopes up. It does however look very nice worn as a necklace like Frodo.

I did not know I was getting this til my email said it was on the way, I thought the orc captains was the only bonus. Its a neat ring its got the engravings on it. Sadly my fingers are to big for it but its still a nice little addition to my shelf of collector edition items and such.

This came with my preorder of Middle Earth: Shadow of War. The ring came inside a little plastic bag with a paper of the cover of the game. The ring is well made and has an inscription inside the band just like in the game. It was a neat little bonus to come with the game.

It's a cool ring but when I got the ring they didn't put the ring size or not even a option for a bigger size I got big & long fingers so it fit but I have to lick my finger to get the ring off so I only wear it once a while I got this ring when I pre ordered the game

this came with my game so i didn't actually have to pay for it, but being LOTR buff, i still was excited non the less to get it. it's not as cheap as i thought it was going to be, i'll probably use it more for decoration than to ware, but still pretty cool.

This ring was included with my purchase of Shadow of Mordor at Best Buy. Seems a little small for my hands, but it's a nice looking ring and it seems durable enough. Certainly isn't bending in half when I squeeze it in my hand. Not too bad.

I don't know that this really needs a review, but it's metal, its cute, it looks silver, and my husband occasionally wears it on a chain around his neck when he really wants to nerd out. Thanks for the free gift!

This ring is pretty detailed & good quality. The only problem I have is that it’s a little small for me, I can only wear on my pinky but I have maybe medium size fingers, I’ll just wear it in a chain like Frodo.

This was a nice preorder bonus with Shadow of War (Mordor 2). It's nothing terribly fancy, and there are better replicas out there, but it was a freebie thrown in with the game. As a freebie, it's a fun extra.

I pre-ordered the game, so I got this too. I think I will sneak this under my friend's Xmas tree this year as he is a huge D&D nerd. I guess you could use it as a white elephant gift. Now that would be funny.

One of the main reasons I chose to preorder the game was to get this ring. Only downside was that it only comes in one size and it’s too small for my fingers so I have to wear it on a chain around my neck.

I received the ring as a pre-order gift. It's pretty nicely detailed, but I sincerely doubt I could fit this on my pinky, much less any of my other fingers. So, necklace pendant a la Frodo it is, then!

I got this Item when I preordered “Middle Earth-Shadow of War” video game. It seems to be a genuine replica of a ring made from the highest quality of synthetic material and mass produce for basement dwelling gamers that will proudly wear this ring or save it for the next generation in the hope that it will somehow be assigned a value that will justify the cost of manufacturing and distribution.
