I'd probably be all in on this one if it wasn't for the fact that I don't care for the sword. For the amount this thing's gonna cost I would have to be 100% in love with it in order to pull the trigger.

From Michael Crawford.
I think I like him more from this angle.

It does look good. I'd be surprised if this was under $500.
So far Weta has my complete interest (when it comes to actual purchasing) in Smaug, Balrog & even Thror.

It has been almost 8 years since my last Weta purchase. Looks like I'm back in the game. I love this and must have it!

The base length is 44,5cm.
Does look a LOT better. But that sword just sort of ruins it for meFrom Michael Crawford.

doing it...for all of us
This would have benefited from more red fire highlights throughout his body.
Still looks great!

The fire sword hurts hit IMO. It takes away from a great looking Balrog.
Yeah man big time. Like really ruins it IMO too

Maybe if they did the flames similar to what SS did for the Morgul Lord PF.
Though I'm not convinced people would love it that way either.
The entire sword would look like that and could just end up looking cheap.
The flames are not to far off from the original and people love that one.
Doesn't kill it for me but I'd definitely want to see more pics.

Do You guys think the release of this statue, will in any way affect the after-market prices of the Original 'Rog? I still prefer the original to it, and would love to own it, but the prices he goes down for these day, are quite insane.
I think you may have something there. We haven't seen many pics from other angles but still a bit of a turn off

Yes, it should lower it, but I would not think by much. It is still going to be at least 2x as much as the new one.
