The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Ordered this as well.

The pictures we're seeing are they the faux-bronze ptorotype or the actual bronze version?

The oxidization effect is amazing! This is truly a beautiful sculpt..fingers crossed that level of detail will be apparent on the production pieces as well.

Thanks for your clarification Tim..

One more thing, there seems to only be 1 price for shipping to Singapore from NZ on this thing. Shipping cost appear to be NZ$280+ (standard and express same cost) for this.

Is this correctly stated? Will there be alternative *cheaper* shipping? Current shipping rates cost half as much as the statue itself.

Was the same for me shipping to Australia. In other words, its all the same Fedex shipping.
I suspect that there really isn't another option, you did notice the size of this thing, 40cm diameter and 30cm tall, and no doubt fairly heavy.
Its going to be a pretty big and heavy box, as such Fedex is likely the only option, along with its full insurance protection, etc.


PS. When I said on page two that it wasn't an exclusive, the web page didn't actually say it was. That text note only went up in the past 24 hours. SO I guess buy it now or not at all.

Haven't been over to the freaks board for a very long time but did a search for a thread on smaug and found this pic.

I ordered straight away after seeing it although I was going to get it anyways but that really made me jump for it

Looks unbelievable and if your still on the fence be careful your not too late
