Honestly depending what part of the production (of the Rings of Power series that is) this build was commissioned, it might not be that odd at all as it's possible that those better pics don't exist at all or existed only in the archives of the wrong department. Marketing was probably responsible for this sponsoring deal, while the prop department (which easily could have been a sub-contractor) would have any plans or still that aren't needed for marketing and it could be big deal to get copies of those pics to an outsider. TV productions are after all massively complex and there's rights that can be tied with several companies that makes things even more complex.

Man, this hammer is the exact opposite of how the show has been going so far, and that hammer is just superb. Very well crafted, sirs. It's not only beautiful and had a lot of work, consideration of its source material, and painstaking attention to detail put into it, it's also been proven to do what everyone wanted it to do and what it was supposed to be intended to be. It breaks stuff. It's a hammer.

Seeing huge fantasy weapons like this is kind of a love-hate relationship. On one hand, I enjoy seeing the build, watching the team work, and the end result. On the other, it's a huge giant set piece that uses a ton of resources and can barely be picked up and wielded.

@thatworks I think you should look into these scammers.

I've waited so long for you to return to Middle-Earth builds and this one is simply amazing. I don't usually like warhammers, but this one fascinates me for some reason. Still, I'd really appreciate if you ever take a challenge to build some weapons from Tolkien's Legendarium that have never made it to the screen, like elven king Fingolfin's sword Ringil. I think that would be totally superb. And if you are going to make a historical build, I'd like to propose you to take cinquedea with simply historical design or from some fantasy like Elden Ring. Love your creations and thank you for your hard work!

5:45 LOL "Reimagine the source material" 😂😂😂👀👀👀

The chaotic energy is strong with this video 😂

Idea for a forge. For the 40k fans. The Warhammer of the Primarch Vulkan Dawnbringer. Or in spirit of the forge master Primarch Ferrus Manus Forgebreaker . (Since you gentlemen already made a massive sword , golden age Guts sword, this should be a fun challenge)

Watched five minutes, the episode is too funny, almost cought blood laughing. But a very great work done!! 😃

Amazing build!

You guys are friggin animals in the shop. I hope you can continue these builds and enjoy the process as well

Speaking of duren's acts, have you guys ever thought about doing your own interpretations of what that would be based off of the build styles that we've seen in the movies, or based off of the descriptions of the books? I think it would be a really interesting concept.
