The biggest joke with some of these prices, they want over 1K for a damaged piece, its like, are they having a laugh?

A "displayed" one just sold on there for $850+ship so it won't be long. I can easily see these increasing, not many for sale on the secondary market means most are being kept.

On eBay there is one seller selling 8 of these pieces.

My Sauron PF arrived today, damn this piece is fantastic. You can feel the presence of Sauron, he is just gigantic especially when he is posed next to Saruman the Morgul Lord

My overall thoughts on the statue?
I have seen many hate the paint work, and even wanting a repaint ruining this piece of art, I praise SST for being ambitious with this piece. From day to night, you see different textures of the paint, it never looks the same, and that is why I do love the paint work gone into the piece. Overall I am glad it does not look metal and shinny, it reflects Jerry's painting and the raging fires of DOOM how grim the armour would look inside mordor, and its by far my fave SS piece, and it will be my fave piece of all time. A high praise for SST from me, a solid 9/10
What they could have done different?
It does not get a 10, as I did wish the one ring had a light-up feature, or more detail gone into the bands around the ring, showing the language of mordor, when it comes in contact with anything hot which saurons body is a raging inferno show it. So if I was going to change anything, it would be the one ring.

Nice setup LOTRfan85! The Sauron PF is an awesome piece.

If this was facebook I'd give that a like.
oh those likes lol, defiantly glad I managed to find a witch king instead of the dark rider, and convert my Saruman to the exclusive. Because the way they are posed, the palantir hand would not look right next to Sauron. So it had to be the exclusive hand of Saruman next to Sauron
Recived my Sauron Premium Format Figure, a couple of days ago. Everything about this piece is fantastic! Love all the details, the mold and the paint job.
Congrats, it's an awesome piece! Even after having it a year, I'm still amazed by the Sauron PF.

It looks much better in black and white!
I kind of miss this piece. It was a real showstopper regardless of the paint.

The paint job has always been fine. People just needed to display him properly to bring out that lava glow effect. Here's mine. I got rid of all my LOTR pieces and thought if I only kept one piece from LOTR, it'd be Sauron.

I recently moved my statues, covered and turned off the radiator so they can never get damaged.
I was going to use this for Megatron and Optimus, but I changed my mind and decided, why not use it for my LOTR statues? so the room is not over cluttered. The display room looks far better displayed now
