Weta Numenorean Shield

[LOTRFan]

Scoff at peasants, or scuff as in paint?

 

[SDJ]

I was kinda surprised at just how small they are but the detail is excellent and it will look great amongst my busts and helms. I will not only keep the other 2 on order but hope they continue the line.

What's the likelyhood of Weta selling them at SDCC this year?

 

[Maglor]

Wow, this is really awesome! I've always wanted a Numenorean banner, but this might tide me over!

 

[Mr Fell Beast]

Yuppers, got one in and love this little guy!!

BTW got a shipment notice fr DHC, which one is next???

 

[LOTRFan]

Gil-galad.

I really want one of these Weta Numenorean Shield's.

Any tips on where I can buy one?

If I have to go to eBay, what's a reasonable price?

 

[GrueSam]

You have to buy directly from Weta:

Got mine today, and i love it! Smaller than i expected but it'll fit in fine with how i intended to display it - with the Last Alliance busts.
Very happy!

Yup, that pretty much covers it for me too, smaller then I thought it would be but when you display it with the busts its fits in nicely

But they are cheap plastic!

Well I got mine yesterday, and my initial response is that I must not have read the fine print, because I didn't realize that this was a broach. Translation: It is smaller than I expected. In fact when I showed it to my wife and she saw the pin in the back she said "you should use it as a tie pin!" She was joking of course, but it does make my point. For those who don't know, here is a picture for scale:

That said, I am very happy with this purchase. Being metal, it has a nice heft to it. And the base is attractive resin. My only other complaint is that on mine the middle star is painted a bit to the left, but otherwise they did a nice job.

Here's a couple more pics.

And how I currently have it on display:

Boy, I need to dust!

Oh man those are just too small IMO...was thinking it would be much larger. Metal is cool, but a larger poly wuld have been fine.

 

[Maglor]

Or maybe I just have huge hands.

Wow, I really wanted to get into these, I have the complete helm collection and thought this would go nicely with them... but they are tiny. Forget it. If it had been 1/4 scale, for sure, guess this must (should be) 1/6 scale.

Oh well, at least that saves me some money and I can focus on getting all the new environments.

If they were any bigger they'd be....well, just too big, for me at least. As they are they slot into my collection perfectly and are very affordable so i can get lots! They complement the busts and helms very well.
