Ah thank you, that would explain the chip on the cloak then. I've contacted Weta but I guess I won't hear from them until Tuesday with all the bank holidays and the weekend.

I just received a Faramir statue from Weta but there was a strange silver piece laying on the box. It definitely looks like it's come off something but I've had a look and can't tell from where. Could anyone with this statue please tell me where this came from. Thank you.

Nope, no hole in the bottom of the statue and no peg in the base. I have pictures in my gallery here at the top so if you spot anything out of the ordinary with the statue do point it out https://sovereignxs.imgur.com/all/#1

Ah, I see. Thanks :)

Very beautiful statue, I think i'll get this one. I do find it interesting that they show her in the combat pose from the film, even though at that time she was in her 'dark' form. Makes me wonder if there were any regrets in making her go corrupt to fight Sauron in the film? Also kind of...

It's not as terrible as I hoped, but to be quite honest I never liked the design of the Ringwraiths in that last film, i'd much rather have the other 4 True Form Nazgul from Weathertop, we already have True Form Witch-King so why not? I may or may not get this statue but regardless let's hope...

Love the robe and the fact we now have a Saruman statue with the staff, though the face looks...somewhat less detailed than the original Saruman statue.

So I recently bought the original Weta Gandalf the Grey statue from eBay and it arrived today, I'm just a little confused about it, the statue has a flat base and the black base doesn't have a peg, so the statue just sits on top of the base. This is the only statue from Weta which is like that...

I see, thanks. I think I have everything I need do this.

Fantastic. Last bit, as I mentioned the holes in the head are slightly too small or misaligned a tad, i'm guessing a drill would fix this though I worry about how steady my hands would be and possible causing damage to the statue. Is there a type of shop that would be able to correct it?

From what I understand, artist proofs are items a company will personally inspect for quality and they're usually sold to people in the industry. Though each company seems to handle proofs differently so i'm not sure what the exact practise of Weta is when it comes to them. I was just wondering...

So what you're saying is that a hairdryer will still work on the sword?

But I am guessing that the technique wouldn't work on the polystone sword?

I believe the morgul blade is polystone, as for the spikes i'm not sure. They're not polystone, they may be rubber but whatever they are they're flexible. Would using hot water or a hairdryer damage the paint?

Oh and just thought i'd mention that i've tried fixing the pieces by bending them in the opposite direction, it works for a maybe a minute but they slowly creep back to the bend position.

Hello everyone, I purchased a Weta Witch-King: True Form statue on the 28th of August and when I first opened it to check for damage and take pictures it was fine. E.g When I took it out again 2 days ago for some better pictures some of the crown's spikes were bent for no apparent reason...

Oh dear, a metal object with rust. Previous experience would tell me the actual retail one will be just a black lump with silver lines here and there >_>

I was lucky, I managed to grab a genuine one from ebay on the 28th of Sep for 355, you can get one from Amazon but you could also wait for one to pop up on ebay. With items coming and going so quickly a genuine one is bound to appear and frankly on the Amazon.co.uk site there is only a single...

That's awesome guys, thanks for putting my mind at ease :). I don't supposed anyone here knows how to bend the smaller peices, such as the True Form's morgul dagger and his crown spikes? I opened him up to take the pics yesterday and they were bent. His dagger is slightly curved upwards and his...

Hi guys, so I bought these statues off of Ebay about 4 weeks ago, looking at other posts on the forum I seem to have avoided the common mistakes. One statue is from the UK the other is from the US, the items came with their colour shipper and Morgul Lord with a brown shipper, the sellers only...
