Statue Weta - Azog the Defiler on Warg

[Pork Chop Express]

I agree, but our checking account - not so much.

Tell me about it, my wallet looks at me like I betrayed my best friend.

2013 was a big collecting year, next year looks good but thankfully for me my PO list is shrinking nicely. If Weta were to release one item like this a year I'd be happy.

My order list as of now looks like this:

Sideshow - Sauron PF - Sept
Sideshow - Vader Mythos - Sept
Weta - FOTR Set 3 - Sept
Weta - Arwen - Nov/Dec
Weta - Bert the Troll - Nov/Dec
Weta - DoS Chronicles - Dec
Gentle Giant - Goblin King with Scribe - Q4 2013
Weta - White Council - Q1 2014
Weta - Azog - Q1 2014
Gentle Giant - Azog - Q1 2014
Gentle Giant - Bilbo - Q2 2014

Conan dio and Bats from SS this year.
Strike Down Thor from BD later this year or next.
Azog from Weta and will go for Rivendale after I get my points.
Have Azog bust on order from GG but may cancel, have Weta's piece incoming.

New Cap PF, Spidey cq & Hulk PF I'm interested in... we'll see how that goes. I'll be watching Weta closely for any new releases.

Nice! That's a pretty solid list of items right there.

Just ordered this from BBTS. This piece looks way to cool to pass on. Does anyone know if they let you make payments before it arives at BBTS?

 

[Pork Chop Express]

Nice! That's a pretty solid list of items right there.

Same to you.

Here's to one day having the space to properly display all of this (and maybe no longer getting an earful and eyerolls from your spouse), and a much deserved break on our collective wallets.

Thanks

I hope that happens for you. I hope someday when I get married that I can dodge that issue but probably not.

It depends on your card. The one I use can last up to two weeks.

Thanks Josh are weta good with there release dates

Thanks Josh are weta good with there release dates

Yeah, they are pretty good IMO of hitting the dates on most pieces. Like any company they do have to push things at times, but its not terribly often.

Thanks Josh are weta good with there release dates

They tend to hit the mark pretty well most of the time. Usually the US gets stock first, followed by the UK 1 to 2 weeks later but can be at the sametime.

NZ warehouse then tends to get the items last, upto a few weeks later. Of course this item is currently Q1, so little bit of a window there, which Weta will narrow down as time gets closer. Even so, don't spend up big come christmas, you may find you need $700+ by early Feb

I got only the GG hobbit bust.none weta hobbit dwarfs.
And if I do,it would be only,Thorin,Balin,Dwalin.

 

[hardyakka_mate]

I have all the Weta dwarves statues so far except Bofur. I've been resisting the urge to order him as the current Australian dollar exchange rate against US dollar is low. I hope it gets better by the time Azog is ready to ship or else I'll end up paying more $$$. I'll get Bofur and Gloin (when he's released) depending on the exchange rate, or maybe when we get some discounts like $ off when the 3rd Chronicles book is released. Here's hoping...

 

[Pork Chop Express]

Once all those dwarves are assembled that'll make a really nice display.
Topped off with Azog charing
