paint looks better than the average weta churnout, might get it when i have my new display.
Is this and bilbo in scale with the ss lotr maquette series?

Beautiful. I will have to seriously think about getting this. I can't afford to collect every character like in the good old days, but I might just buy the three wizards assuming they make Radagast & Saruman? I like an old Blibo at this scale too maybe at his desk. I was never much for the likeness on the SSW one & he is far too expensive on ebay
Its a very good looking piece. The photos got a bit more washed out with the light than I'd like but trying to darken them didn't work either. So while maybe not some of my best work I think it shows just how good this version of Gandalf came out. I would highly suggest getting this and when the other two Wizards comes out it will look like a great trio.

Thanks Josh for sharing! The new Gandalf is definitely at the top of my favourite LOTR/Hobbit statues atm. It looks good at any angle, indoors or outdoors. A def must-have for any fan.

Where are your dogs Josh? They usually peer out from behind the glass doors.

No problem. (A little hacked photobucket is making them looked a little more washed out than they really came out) He is really good and Weta nailed this one big time
This to me totally captures that moment where Gandalf talks to Bilbo about going on an adventure. A must have for sure.Where are your dogs Josh? They usually peer out from behind the glass doors.
One of them shows up I think in either some of my GTG, Bilbo, or mini-Strider statue. They will make an appearance.

Ok so now we just need someone to post a picture of the SSW, Sideshow and Weta 1/6th Gandalf's all 3 in the same shot.

Josh, do you know something no else knows about? Did a little bird tell you both Radagast and Saruman statues will be made???
Nope just going with my gut and what I would say seems like a good bet.

Agreed! No reason to doubt it. They have a proven track record of giving us all the main characters in statue form such as Faramir, Eomer, Denethor,...

The gtg ex is the BEST by far of the entire maquette line, and my favorite statue short of the repainted arwen. The detail, sculpt, paint, pose..everything just defines gandalf. And as a standalone piece - one of the best released by sideshow.
