Yep, a few things I'm interested in. Not as appealing as last year but still plenty of discounts.

I really wish Weta would do away with those 2 statues for $$$ deals and just take off 50% across the board. The only statue I don't already own of those 2 for $399 deal is the Witch-King of Dol Guldur, so the deal is useless to me unless I want to buy two of them.

Yeah, finding an even number can be tough. That said if you did buy 2 I'd think you could easily resell one for $200 + shipping. It's a hassle but when you factor the $150 savings + the Weta Dollars it might still be worth it. TBH I'm kinda surprised to see the Witch-King in this sale.

I may just have to do that. Order two Witch-Kings and sell one for $200. As for the WK being present, it doesn't surprise me in the least. The ES at 750 is decent, but it's been available for over 13 months and it's not even at "Low Stock" status yet.

Based on the lack of popularity of this one, and the crazy pricing of the Ringwraith of Forod, I suspect we might be witnessing the end of Weta's willingness to produce ringwraiths based on The Hobbit. Though I do hope we at least get one more before Weta pulls the plug, that being Khamul the Easterling.

'Best' is a relative term and only you can decide which two you prefer. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them, but you might want to consider Nori and Ori, as they are the only two at "Low Stock" status at the moment. As an added bonus, Ori with an ES of 500, has the lowest ES of any dwarf ever made......or half that of any other dwarf.
