    They did. Then after Christopher Tolkien, who always protected his and his father's work and had veto power over the way they were used, died, they fired everyone and started over.

    Before hate starts pouring out again, whether justified or not, just enjoy the video and rejoice in the fact that while there may have been weaknesses within the series, Weta Workshop's work wasn't one of them. There is just as much love behind the weapons, props and locations as there was with the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings parts.

    Numenor's armor clearly looks like patterned cloth. That's why I didn't think it was the work of the same Weta who brought the original Peter Jackson trilogy.

    Weta are INCREDIBLY talented. Their skills are amazing and I love all their LOTR/Hobbit statues :) It's a shame Amazon went out of their way to ruin what should have been the biggest series ever made. If woke fools hadn't been put in charge, I would have added anything they made to my collection.... but I will unfortunately be sticking to ANYTHING Weta makes for LOTR and Hobbit... although.... I gotta say... War of the Rohirrim may be a GREAT work as well... I'm looking forward to getting Helms Deep when it's released :)
