You can't be serious,


How about you guys from NZ send us all those Witchking crowns you got to buy for $25. Or all the other sold out product you get to buy that the rest of the world doesn't.

Please, You guys in NZ had the option of buying hard to find items such as the WK crown for retail and you are complaining about not getting the bracelet?!? You are still in the best place if you want to collect Weta stuff so consider yourself lucky.

WK Crown and other rare items are issue before.... Sideshow-Weta made a decision to sell only for Kiwis.

Its not my own decision...You have to ask that to Richard T....

As a Collector i just wanted something that people can tell that im a polystone collector and a supporter of the cause.... i dont want to offend anyone outside NZ.

I just want a piece of something that i can see all day...everywhere i go
that im a proud collector of Polystone line

If you pay for the shipping I am sure that there is someone here that would be happy to send you one. Or you can take up my offer for a Wiki crown trade, I'll even pay for shipping.


Jesse :D
 
I have an extra bracelet

Well the promotion was run by Sideshow not Weta. Maybe Weta should donate some money to the Lance Armstrong foundation and make up the bracelets and send them to their customers. Buy something from Sideshow and you'll get the bracelet like everyone else.

I've got loads of them, PM me and I'll send you one - as a Thank You to NZ for my great time there last year :banana

Hi Mike,

I've sent you two of them today, you should receive them in the next 4-7 days.

Say hello to NZL and to your hometown Wellington from me, can't wait to get back there... :D

...Can you point to your home on that picture? :D
 
The picture was taken about 14 months ago during my first trip to NZL toghether with my girlfriend. The trip was great and we immediately fell in love with your country.

It is somewhat similar to our home country Switzerland, only with access to the Sea and with a lot more variety in a very small area. We found it very fascinationg to be able to drive from the slopes of a ski area down to the beaches in a matter of 2-3 hours and to see all that variety of landscapes and flora.

Unfortunately, at that time, we only had the chance to see the North Island. Now, I've finally managed to close a deal with a customer in Christchurch (food processing equipment) and this January I will be installing their equipment. The job is only gonna take me 3 days, but I've added some two weeks of vacation and now I'll finally get to see the South Island, too. :banana

In March I'll be coming again to see a customer near Auckland, and I'll certainly use that opportunity to further explore the North Island. :D

Looking forward to be there again!

did you manage to visit Weta Workshop and other related place in Wellington?
At that point in time, I didn't know much about Weta. I knew from my next-door neighbour (whose mother is the godmother of Brigitte Wuest, sculptor at Weta) that they were involved in the making of the movies, but not that they were making these collectibles.

My fascination (addiction?) for anything LotR related (including Sideshow Weta collectibles) didn't start until during that trip to New Zealand. But yes, we visited quite a few LotR filming locations on the North Island, I found the Pitangirua Pinnacles to be the most fascinating (see my signature...) , but of course the Hobbiton movie set and everything else was cool, too.

if you ever come back to Welly il take you around... just let me know...

i owe you one...remember:cool:
Thanks, I'll resond to your offer once I know when I'll be back in your area :D
 
If any other Kiwi's want the bracelets, send emails to Weta. If there is enough of a response, we can have them shipped to Weta, who can then send them to the people who asked.
