Statue Weta - Azog the Defiler on Warg

[The Josh]

Yes, he is. The Balrog had an edition size of 1000 and the Cave Troll was 750.

Edit: never mind Adolfo beat me to it.

I wanna see Dain riding on a Wild Boar at 2014 SDCC just as big as this piece

Dunno if they'd reveal that one so soon(if he gets made),isn't Dain on Boar from the battle of five armies(been a while since I've read the hobbit)?

But then again,we are yet to see Tauriel on screen and yet,her statue was at the 'con...so you never know

If this one gets made the Azog would become instant grail and the Dain/Boar would sell out faster....and look great together...I see it happening and hope the same great sculptor is used

 

[guitarmandan]

They would look amazing together,for sure

Good thing about Weta is that they seem to listen to what the fans want unlike alot of other companies so id say if Azog sells well theres a good chance we'll see Dain on his boar.

 

[The Josh]

That one could happen but we won't see it until closer to film 3.

 

[Pork Chop Express]

That is so cool. If Weta made that insta buy for me and I'd quit Sideshow, mostly.

Tim from Weta said half the ES was ordered within the first day. This one might go quicker than I thought.

we thought the first half would go quick being that there wasn't a NRD. now the other 250 must move, plus cancels and CC declines come shipping time.

ES is alot lower...Cave Troll ES was 750 and Balrog was 1000

What scale was the Cave Troll?

 

[Adolfo]

What scale was the Cave Troll?

I would say about 1/9. Something like that

 

[NAZGUL-KING]

What scale was the Cave Troll?

It's smaller than 1/6, so maybe 1/7 or 1/8.

I expected to sell quickly but maybe not that quickly. There will of course be some that come back near shipping. If its selling this well it may not be that many.

YES!!!!!!!!

I'm sooo glad PJ used the "Gundabar" excuse to redesign the wargs. I never loved the hyena looking things from TTT. They were okay but the Hobbit wargs look much more like I pictured them from the books.

And they have a bit of a Ghostbusters "terror dog" vibe to them.

 

[The Josh]

I like that it shows some variance in the wargs. You have different breeds and such kind of how Goblins and Orcs look a little different based on location.

The amount of Weta dollars you get for this purchase (as a gold member) is way better than what SSC would give for this amount.
