Statue Weta Workshop Smaug the Terrible Statue

[Wise yoda]

Smaug is mine

Looks like the best thing of this SDCC.

Is Bard leaping from a roof top? Can't quite tell with the reflection?

He is.

 

[NAZGUL-KING]

Josh, which Hobbit piece was more impressive at first sight, Azog on Warg last year or Smaug?

 

[BagginsOfBagEnd]

Smaug looks awesome!!

 

[JediSword]

Couldn't see **** in that video. Where was the Balrog and Smaug

This should come with an invisible Bilbo companion statue in the same scale.

That's tough. Really tough to be honest because both are pretty mind blowing with how good they are. Let me think about that for a bit.

How does the old Balrog compare to the new one?

Another shot of the head (don't know who's the author unfortunately).

His snout looks great. Lots of expression here.

This looks so amazing. I need to leave the country for a few months or rob someone, or take up stripping

The new one is twice the size of the old one. The new one is around 2ft tall and so you can get more detail in it. Its taken everything that was amazing and perfect about the Daddy Rog and blown that up to a huge piece.

I like it! The only concern I have is the gold pile may be too monotone gold. Does that make sense?

Two feet tall!! That's about 62cm. Its a beast!

I know it's only Thursday but I'm already feeling like it's all Weta for me.

It's got a good metallic look. I think the bigger one does anyways

I know. He's such a huge huge piece.

I know it will be for me.

What's the deal with the little Smaug statue next to the big one? Doubt I'll be able to afford the large one.

Was there no Hobbit-based Legolas statue?

The little Smaug is just part of that mini-line of statues.

No doesn't appear so. A little surprised he isn't but they're taking some stuff to NYCC so he may be there.

 

[The Chev]

I have been waiting for a Smaug statue. I hope I can afford it.

 

[The Josh]

He's gonna push 1k I think.

That would be 'Smauglet', as we are now calling him

Basically, Weta decided to cover both of their bases, they made a large, no doubt expensive and Limited Edition Smaug and then also made a much smaller, cheaper and I have no doubt will be Open Edition Smaug for everyone else.

While the big Smaug would be cool to have, I already have a large Smaug, so I'll just get Smauglet which means I'll have both covered, Book and Film versions.
