Both versions were marked sold out, they must have just stopped taking orders. They have done that in the past, probably not going to make the full ES.

Wow! If that's true, the collectors who are waiting on more videos and photos of this piece in order to get a better look from the "in hand" perspective are out of luck.

Just received the shipping notice from DHL; Sauron should be arriving on Friday. Totally amped!

Just received the Prime 1 Sauron statue and I'm really floored by this piece. I apologize in advance for the quality of the photos and the background due to the room being under renovation, but for the collectors that ordered this statue, you will not be disappointed. They did a tremendous job with the sculpting and paint applications. Arriving in 2 boxes and weighing nearly 100 pounds (collectively), I spent nearly half a day assembling this piece with the chain mail centerpiece taking most of the time insert correctly. Thank you "Haunt of the Collector" (YouTube) for your advice on this matter. Sauron commands attention in an effortless manner and will easily be the centerpiece of many collections.

My only gripe with this statue, as mentioned earlier is the chain mail centerpiece which took 2 straight hours to set properly due to the poor engineering of that specific part, but with that said, this statue is still on another level all together and Prime 1 has definitely captured the essence of Sauron with this piece. As a collector, there are statues...and then there are "Statues"; this piece is the latter. Shooting for the moon is a noble endeavor, but IMHO, this statue has already reached Mars....with ease.

I ordered directly from Prime 1 two days before they sold out of the exclusive version. My order was placed at the start of November.

Prime 1 has the Sauron exclusive version back up, in limited quantities. They had been showing "sold out" status for the for the last 2 weeks. They may have had some cancellations.

Still not happy about the distance between the eyes although this is currently the best Sauron in the market

I purchased an exclusive version directly from P1 and the shipping notice finally updated, saying that it will be arriving on Christmas Eve!! Located in Colorado. The spino spent 6 months in the port of LA, so very surprising that this one is already here.
