Yeah, thats her design, to represent each spectrum of the chromatic side of dragons, as she's their goddess. There is some inconsistency in the community on the white neck though. Some art has her with the same tan scales as the other on the white neck, some art has her all white on that head, differing in scales from the rest.

WETA, apart from being 1/6 - in my opinion, are generally terribly painted. Although enough people rave about them, so maybe it's just me.....
So, while P1 are the bottom of the barrel (IMHO) - I can't fault anyone shopping there if it's the only (real) option. |
Yeah, if Aragorn comes out as bad as we think, I'm going to just pay to have him repainted. I think the design and base are top notch, so it will suck repainting, but a worthy long term investment. Legolas so far seems to be a hit from the few that have received him. Sauron is a home run. But I agree with you on WETA. I dont understand the love. They have some great pieces, but more often than not, I'm not a huge fan.

Ordered. Trying my best to cut down, but this has to be one of the most epic statues I've ever seen. Tiamat and King Ghidorah are my favorite dragons
I think PCS made all the right choices designing her. First, I'm glad they decided to use the portraits of the Chromatic DND Dragons for her heads, her tail has that massive stinger, and her wings are in full display. Its not just that, but I like their choices the for base and pose. Tiamat has massive presence on her own so nothing crazy is needed. The result is something intimidating but majestic at the same time.
I have Klauth and now I'm going to have to tell him I fell in love with his mom and asked her to move in with us
Really hoping the end result looks as good as this prototype. Absolutely love this one so far.
My only concern is that I think her best angle is going to take up a massive amount of real estate. Honestly have no idea what type of display I'll use but at least I have time to think about it. Well, that and its PCS. Never thought I'd spend so much money on one of their statues, but lately they look like they're stepping up their game.

Buy two: one to display and one to mount to the hood of your car 
Seriously, congrats on taking the plunge!

Haha! Thanks.
My buddy has a 2022 Hellcat Challenger. It'd make one hell of a hood ornament

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

I’m not showing this to my husband. He has been into D&D since a kid, long before me, but I know enough to know this is his favorite “story”. I’m the statue collector, not him, but he might try to shoehorn this into the house somewhere if he sees it

Mine won't arrive until April but I can already say she'll be one of, if not my favorite statue in the collection.

I saw BBTS has the Deluxe/Collector one with LEDs in stock. I just went ahead and ordered the regular one with SC. Might still save a a few bucks.
