Statue Weta Workshop's The Balrog Statue

[The Josh]

I am still hoping, a fool's hope, that SS does a large Balrog PF one day, similar to Sauron in size.

That would be pretty sweet.

Legendary scale with real flame burners on his back. Doubles as a patio heater.

 

[PermaG]

I dunno, that might go to an Eye of Sauron scaled replica. Like just the top section, act like a fire pit.

...ooo...maybe both...

Really want to see the price on this one. Probably more expensive than Azog

With an ES of 1500 I should not think so.

I expect him now with that ES to be no more than Azog.

I hope not

 

[The Josh]

I hope not

I would be fairly surprised at this point. Don't be shocked if it is $700 but I'm thinking more like $650.

Does anyone know if the sword is removable? I have a felling below the hand will be permanently fixed but above the hand will be a separate piece for shipping. The reason I ask is that I think if I buy this, I would prefer to display it without the sword.

 

[Adolfo]

I'm 99% sure it is removable. I just can't see it not. I just cant

It was removable at Comic-Con. The top part is anyways but if you don't display it you'll still have that hand holding the handle of the sword. I'll be display it with the sword myself.

Thanks, that's what I thought. I didn't think they would make the bottom removable. Did they actually remove the blade portion at SDCC?

No but you could see how like most swords it just slides into a hole in the hand.

Love this pic. Really debating what's on the horizon but this image makes it hard to not want to order.

 

[The Josh]

It's a pretty good pic. Nah, I'm with ya it's a pretty good piece and I think should be considered by many. It will be purchase by me.

His price is going to be exspensive but that isn't a shock. I don't consider 1500 a massive ES especially since its only 500 more than the Original Blarog.

Are you gonna wait to order when in-stock to build up Weta Dollars from other stuff?

You sure the original was 1000? how come on their site it states ES of 3500?

I don't know why it says that. I can assure you the bottom of my base says 1000.

 

[akihiko]

Could the SS run be 1000 and the rest could have distributed other geographical locations? It's odd that on weta's site its 3500... :S

 

[akihiko]

how many can each person order from weta? is it 1 per address?

Do you guys think this will sell out with-in a few hours? days? weeks?
