What does WETA do when pre-ordering?
Do they charge your CC on the spot or when the item is shipped?

Thanks I though it was up going to be up for pre-order today....
I just think it would cheapen the look and feel of the environment. There were flames in moria and yet I wouldn't want fake plastic flames shooting out from that environment. Just my opinion.
If not done right it could. I trust weta that they could do it but I don't think there will be an issue as I don't believe they're doing one. Which is fine by me as the piece looked great at comic-con
I have the Danbury Mint Barad-Dur and it does look very nice. My only negative would be the colors used. While I like the idea, they could have been a little more subdued.
Considering that it cost $100 bucks and had the light-up feature on the eye (actually changes colors and not just one red LED), it is an amazing collectable. But Weta's is simply larger in scale and higher in fidelity of details. But it will also come with a significantly higher pricing as well. If Weta's BD is very expensive, I will be quite happy with my DM one.

If anyone is interested, I'm selling my DB Baradur.

Found this in the Barad-dûr thread on The Shadow and Flame:
That looks incredible.

Barad-dûr - Fortress of Sauron
We apologise for having delayed the launch of Barad-dûr - Fortres of Sauron. It was a decision we had to make due to staff illness.
The good news is that we can confirm a date and time for the launch of this spectacular environment.
As always, we try to accommodate as many as possible of you and have therefore chosen the following launch time:
Los Angeles: Sunday 5 August at 1PM
New York: Sunday 5 August at 4PM
London: Sunday 5 August at 9PM
Paris: Sunday 5 August at 10PM
Sydney: Monday 6 August at 6AM
Wellington: Monday 6 August at 8AM
We have spent a lot of time and effort preparing our site for an onslaught, and there are also things you can do to ensure a smooth launch.
We have put together a guide to how you can get the best experience on the day.

Not at all, I am wondering on what if the suspect cost on this bad boy might be??
As far a edition size I think WETA will sell as many as needed, I really do not think it will be a very limited piece........
