Weta isn’t trying to scam you. The pauldrons was a genuine mistake that nobody noticed when it was revealed, or when it went up for order, and when someone did eventually point it out, most people didn’t care. Since all the statues had already been ordered, it would be a massive task for Weta to...
Oh well, sucks for you. Meanwhile Weta continue going on bringing out amazing and popular statues. Look at the amazing things revealed this week, and the excitement collectors have shown for them.
I don’t get all the beating on Weta. I’ve been collecting their LOTR statues since the Sideshow/Weta days and they’ve always been quality products which are always even better in person.
I guarantee a company could release a photo of an actual film still of an actor or actress, say it’s a statue, and someone somewhere will say ‘likeness is off’
Weta, they designed and made Sauron for the film and so had his actual armour to work from.
Plus personally I prefer 1/6 scale, allows more room for more statues!
That's really good! For me, the size is better and it's more screen accurate. It has a more iconic feel to it too. I might make this my first Prime purchase.
