Statue Weta Announces Barad-Dur

[cstojano]

Well you do get 100 dollars back in Weta dollars, which, with the Hobbit coming out, I will have no problem spending. But yeah, we were all expecting this for Rivendell and were pleasantly surprised. Then Rivendell set our expectations low and BAM!

And the onslaught of pre-orders begins! Ordered at 6:02 (Syd time), that was fast!

Damn site has gone down for me!!!

 

[Adolfo]

I knew if it was strictly L/E it would be expensive, but not this much...I do not see this selling out quickly...I am on the fence myself...it is nice but price does hurt alot...Rivendell is a bargain compared to this one

 

[cstojano]

Figure its two SS PFs or three maquettes. I dont think anyone feels good about the price but the piece looks amazing.

 

[hardyakka_mate]

I hope this comes out in January. It'll be a very expensive holiday season!

Does it send you guys to another page (National Bank) for payment info? The button I'm supposed to click says "pay now." Are they charging us for this now?

 

[Darth Rage]

Much more expensive than I expected.

 

[hardyakka_mate]

Would this come with a poster or a pin to commemorate the event?

No, Weta charges only when it's ready to ship. No deposit even.

Used up my $211 in Weta Dollars. Do you still get Weta dollars on orders that you use them on?

If this were 1.0 meter tall it would be worth $700. But it's only 0.5m tall. Wow.

I do not think so

 

[The Josh]

It was about $100 more than I thought but I used my Weta dollars and got it for $545 I believe. Can't wait to get it after seeing it last month.

Yes, you get Weta dollars for the amount you pay when the used Weta dollars are deducted. Check at the end of you order mail, the amount earned is there.

 

[Adolfo]

That ES of 1000 is high IMHO too for that price...nonetheless it will sell out eventually sometime in the fall I think...

If that's the case that's wonderful

 

[Sined]

I'm not sure why but they are trying to charge me upfront. What's the trick here? I've made 4 pre-orders before & I only paid after item was in-stock. Or I'm just doing smth wrong?

This is something sideshow really needs to learn.
