Thanks . Weird that Weta still allows you to go through with the purchase. Are they known for doing that and then later saying it’s not available perhaps?

Are you on their mailing list? If not make sure you are as you’ll get email notifications of these sales in addition to being notified of new product before it’s available to purchase.
I am on the list, but that account I don't check as often

Yes, they have oversold before, but if it isn't a limited ed piece it may just ship when the next batch is in stock so you should be ok.

Trust me, it isn't worth having a stock guy cram them in the same tube, its just asking for damage. They should be able to strap the individual tubes together though.

No, that's not the case. It'll just be sent to you when it comes back in stock as it's an open edition, and still quite new. It happened to me last year when ordering Hobbit holes on Black Friday, two were sent to me straight away and the other one a bit later when in stock.

I called Weta and they asked me to send a screen shot. I did and they responded quickly and said that it’s not in stock in the US warehouse, which is where I’m ordering from. My question is since it still allows me to order, will it just ship from one of their other warehouses or is it safe to say I missed out on this piece? I emailed Weta with that question but unfortunately they haven’t responded yet like they did my first message.
I ordered 3 for 150.00. Two of them were Gandalf on Gwaihir and it said out of stock in US but will ship when in stock. Lol, they shipped the next day.

Fell Beast Bust $249 on Flash Sale. Just a crazy price for a $699 bust. Couldn’t resist.

It's a killer deal on on a nice piece - not sure why this didn't get more love.
