Grond is not blowing me away from the pics I've seen given the price. I appreciate the detail and craftsmanship that went into that piece though.

I just contacted Weta about my Grond and the two large black pegs underneath the battering ram frame. They’re huge, and a real eyesore if you want to display the environment at or near eye level. And strangely enough, they either aren’t on the prototype or they’ve been photoshopped out of Weta’s official prodution photo’s on their website.

Sorry, but your “but the people on the other forum like it” argument is on par with what I’d expect for an 8 year old. The Weta owned and operated forum is that last place I’d go to get an honest opinion on Weta products so you’re going to have to come up with something a lot better than that. As for you willing to “settle” for a statue with lousy paint apps......good for you, it’s your money. But don’t think you’re going to tell me what I should or shouldn’t like. That kind of mindless group think might work over there, but it’s not going to work on this forum.
Hmmm,these a very hard words from you about the people but i mean not only the flame of udun forum.
You have your own arguments and i have mine,i told you before ,that is o.k
I and nearly 398 fans/people of Lord of the rings and the hobbit or what you mean what we are love this piece of s...t statue.
Peace!

I hope you understand what i mean my english is not the best.

Can someone please post when they get shipping for Balrog that was purchased over the Black Friday Sale?

Curious on how long it takes to ship out.

You made a wise choice. The War Troll is cool but The MoS is a collection defining piece. Truly on another level and will be highly sought after once it sells out.
