I hope they do king of the dead in a similar fashion to the specters, they’re phenomenal!! The faces in the holes are also a great addition. Perfect collectible overall!

That would be fantastic. I've long wanted a King of the Dead statue as I wasn't a fan of the SS Weta piece. Thanks for commenting!

I really have no words!! I hope one day to achieve one of these wonders. I live in Argentina and accessing this Masters Collection line is almost impossible. I was able to get the Bilbo statue on his desk (Classic Series) and the work Weta does is truly amazing. Congratulations on your new acquisition and greetings from South America.

Great video and quality. Thank you for sharing. You should consider doing a video on your thoughts on the Weta Master Collection line (please notify me if you have) and what upcoming characters/scenes you would like represented in this line. I’m sure many of your viewers would enjoy your take on the matter. Looking forward to continuing to support the channel. Cheers

Once again, another perfect unboxing and review! The production quality is unmatched! Fantastic piece! Great sculpt, paint, detail, texture etc. Loved the hidden "easter egg" integrated in the base - that was so cool! First, on Haunt of the Collector's video of this piece, I was not very satisfied with the portrait similarity. However, seeing more close-up shots, I think it is very acceptable. The other attention to detail presented in the clothing, cloaks and so, compensates for it. Congratulations on this master piece👏

Thank you for sharing this video showing in detail all the things to look for and be careful when unpacking this expensive statue!!! I'd wish Weta Workshop somehow would provide a video like yours or better or perhaps detailed instructions about how to unpack and set up this expensive statue. I do always find very stressful and daunting unpacking a Weta Workshop statue since I'm so paranoid and the statues are so delicate I want to minimize the risks of screwing up or damaging these delicate statues, because if you run into a problem or something breaks you have to wait for Weta NZ Customer Support to reply and with the time difference and distance it might take a while to achieve a satisfactory resolution.

Thank you Carlos I really appreciate that! Weta actually did make an assembly video but it was unlisted so it doesn't show up to the general public. They sent a link to it through email and I think only to people who ordered it. Honestly I'm not sure why they don't just make it public as If someone gets locked out of their email they no longer could find that video.... also I'm sure it might be interesting for people who are just curious. I was actually pretty scared I might have a break as I saw someone posting some photos on FB of theirs that was broken. I guess he was unlucky though as it seems for most people to have been ok. I hear you on their customer support ... they do seem to have been getting better though.

Hi Bill thank you for watching! Appreciate the compliment makes it all worth it :D When I noticed the faces I was really shocked as Weta made no hints of that and it definitely wasn't in their promotional photos. A really cool hidden easter egg! I have about 8 things currently pre-ordered, in no particular order: - Gollum & Smeagol Miniature Statue - Figures of Fandom Gimli - Figures of Fandom Saruman - 1/4 Scale Prime 1 Studios Gandalf Ultimate Edition - Helms Deep environment - Minas Tirith Environment - United Cutlery "Rohan Axe" - 1/6 Scale classic series Lurtz Though I also have quite a number of things that have arrived I've yet to make videos for.

Great video. If you should chose betwen P1 lotr or weta...which one?

@thecyberhobbit

Жыл бұрын

Weta is more likely to take on unique things from LOTR that no other company would do, but they do have some weaker aspects like face sculpts and they only do 1/6. Prime 1 does 1/4 scale (which I wish I had more of) and does better face sculpts and usually has a better paint job. If I had to choose just 1, since I'm a big LOTR fan I would go with Weta since not only do I love the statues they made but they were hands on with the films.

The statue is really well done and at least they used a usb type C plug rather than a micro usb ! Do you think you will put the artwork in a frame ?

I've been working on a new 3d printed project and hoping to finish it this weekend. I've been filming it as I made it so after will be working on a video for it. Hopefully sometime next week.

The one thing I hate about this piece are all the wafts of the mixed media grass (or whatever it is supposed to be). It looks more like pieces of a blonde wig all over the top of the base.

It’s a nice piece , but compared to Smaug? I really thought Smaug should have been a masterpiece collection
