I love it but still think it was overpriced...What ever paint was missing I touched up...if you look real closely you find spots...small, really tiny...you might even find some pvc thin sheets or pvc balls in between the rocks and tower spaces... they are there if you take a really close look...if you didnt find any then the guy that cleaned and painted yours did a perfect job...It is nice....as well as big and heavy...grats to those that get this...I believe some of this is PVC and some is Polystone..maybe

Adolfo, can you take a pic of your setup under natural light? I'm curious how they all display without the flash washing out the colors.

The top piece of BD looks way more shinier and darker colored on the pics, how is it in person?

Flash doesn't give justice to your environments cause they look all wash out on your pics.

Here are some of mine. These were snapped with my iphone 3, so no flash. Tried to get as much detail as I could, but it was night, and i only had the kitchens lighting far off to help. I love the way the app worked with it too though. Really made me not care about not having an eye, when you can just whip out your phone and there it is! Plus, the fact that the pictures turn out so fun with the app is a big plus too! Let me know if you guys are curious about something, or want to see something in particular.. i have to box it back up tonight I think.

After looking at this piece again I'd say that the top section is just a tiny bit shinier than the lower part...part of the reason too that it's like that is because the top has some larger flat sections that cause more reflection

From the US warehouse to montreal canada. Cant believe it.
Did you ever consider a UPS Store in the US or something like this...

...and bringing it across the border yourself? Shipping would be cheaper and you would save the customs charges. If you're lucky, you might not even have to pay the taxes when crossing the border.

I understand the cost difference but, this is so much more impressive than the Danbury Mint version.
still, $699!? Yikesabooboo

I just received an email from Weta saying my Barad dur has arrived in the UK warehouse. The email said I have the confirm the purchase to clear the statue for delivery? Is this a normal security procedure? The link provided took me directly to my weta account without the need to log in. It all looks kosher.
Has anyone else had to do this?
