Ghan-buri-Ghan, Chieftain of the Woses is an interesting promotional card.

While you can spot two other Men, Ghan-buri-Ghan cannot be overwhelmed unless his strength is tripled. Notably, the ability does not specify between Free Peoples and Shadow Men, meaning that in some matchups this is much easier to accomplish than others. Additionally, Ghan-buri-Ghan receives a defender bonus at forest sites.

As a {{C|Gandalf}} Man, Ghan-Buri-Ghan can bear {{Card|Beorning Axe}}, {{Card|Armor}}, {{Card|Heavy Chain}}, and {{Card|Coat of Mail}} (though the latter does not benefit Ghan-buri-Ghan while three Men are in play).

While released during the Movie Block, [[King Block]] does not have any forest sites to take advantage of. In [[Standard]], [[Expanded]], or [[Open]] games, Ghan-buri-Ghan gains access to several useful {{C|Gandalf}} skirmish events and pumps.

Ghan-buri-Ghan, alongside the rest of [[Weta Collection]] cards, was tournament legal on August 30th, 2004, soon after its release<ref>Wayback Machine: [https://web.archive.org/web/20050217171502/http://www.dgma.com/resource/default.asp?id=31 Tournament Legal Cardlist].
