Pre-order delivery schedule:

US and Canada (numbered edition): Mid April
US and Canada (open edition): Mid/Late May
Europe (numbered edition): Late April
Europe (open edition): Late May
NZ/Aus/Asia/South America (numbered edition): Mid May
NZ/Aus/Asia/South America (open edition): Early June

Please Note: Schedule subject to change.

I selfishly hope this schedule means that the lowest numbers go to the US and Canada. I have a thing for low numbers.

Ran into some credit card issues. Hassled with it for over an hour then just threw-in the towel. Have a lot of other stuff on-deck coming down the pike later this years aways, so some lucky fella on the Waitlist will now be getting a #'ed tower. Congratz!

Re: Weta Orthanc Pre-Ruin Environment

came home to a missed you shipping note from UPS, apparently weta is using Dark Horse Comics for their shipping US, that's where the origin of my package was. I didn't order from Dark horse, So I gave them a call and was told they're handling Weta's shipping in the US as well. Mine will arrive tomorrow, and I've paid my duties with my CC so they can leave it, Can't wait!

Nice! Looks like maybe higher numbers went out first this time.

Ok, this statue is great, really. The details are fantastic and paint job is one of the cleanest I have seen. Since I don't have the original SSW I can't compare, but this piece definitely stands out. I really hope they make Barad-dûr

Oh and I really like the pin, very elegant with the metallic gold finish.
