That's correct. He should be around for a little bit to allow for people who need to find a way to make room.

That much for 1/6 scale?
My wife just got a text from our Chase card that fraudulent activity might have occurred due to someone in New Zealand running it for over $730. I told her to acknowledge the payment and that I'd explain later. So much for keeping this one under wraps until it ships. 
But I secured my order!

Are you on the square?
Congrats, Khev!
Thanks. 
I heard her text go off in the other room after I placed the order and then "Holy ****!" Dammit Weta.

Its a large piece. This isn't a small 1:6 statue.

If you want you can make a post and add the names within this thread. There isn't a thread for folks who pre-ordered it.
This Azog on warg statue was sculpted by Lindsey Crummett who sculpted live orc prosthetics for the actual warg riders in the movie. FREAKING awesome.
She was at Comic-Con this year. I only got to see her at the Weta Party but sadly didn't get to talk to her. A couple of fellow staffers at TORn did get to talk with her and videoed it for their web series on TORn. I'll grab that video in a bit.
Awesome. She actually has a pretty cool success story. Saw Jurassic Park at age 11, determined to make creatures in movies, went to school for it, saw LOTR and determined to work at Weta when she found out they were doing the Hobbit applied at Weta, got hired, cut her teeth on District 9 and Avatar and now here she is having worked on The Hobbit film and its collectibles. It's what a lot of us dream about. Watching certain movies and then wanting to work along side those filmmakers and then actually doing it.

Yeah that is such a cool story.
That would be pretty darn sweet!
Here's the video.

Thanks! Thankfully for anyone watching they don't have to put up with me long and get to the people with talent.

There's something about middle earth statues when done well that just blows everything else away.

Someone should start a thread/poll with dollars spent on this hobby, then again lets stay in denial... "I can swing this, no problem.."
