Not everyone can swing into cool San Diego Comic-Con Rings of Power parties like Popverse’s very own Ashley V. Robinson. In fact, most of us can't. But that’s okay, because Ashley went for us and got some pretty great video footage of all of the rings of power (and costumes) on display at the party.

According to Ashley, “It's the full order ‘three rings for the Elven kings ... seven for the Dwarf Lords ... nine for Mortal Men ...’” as well as Tom Bombadil’s costume.

As for any exciting San Diego Comic Con announcements, all we’ve heard is that there will be a Rings of Power trailer dropping today. Our educated guess is that it will drop at the Rings of Power panel for attendees (in less than an hour - and we'll be liveblogging it for your entertainment!) and then online shortly after. 

Now if you're feeling a bit of San Diego Comic Con FOMO, check out the pictures of all the rings on display below.

The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power season 2 comes to Amazon Prime Video August 29.

Whether you're Shirefolk, Elven, Dwarven, or something else, there's a good reason to love Lord of the Rings. We do! With that in mind, we have a dragon's horde of goodies for you from a Lord of the Rings reading guide, a Lord of the Rings watch guide, details on the upcoming animated film Lord of the Rings: The War of Rohirrim, a full the Lord of the Rings reunion panel you can watch, how the OG Hobbit actors stay in touch every day on a groupchat, and the true message of the Lord of the Rings film trilogy, according to Gimli himself - John Rhys-Davies.
