Love this. I hope you do more. My favorite part of this unboxing is the reading. I will buy this statue, I wasn't going to, but I will after seeing this. Thanks.
I really enjoyed your unboxing video, Ben. I hope you do more of them in the future. And I laughed when I saw that I am currently wearing the same sweater as you did when you filmed it. 👍
Well done Ben. I loved your first unboxing video. I hope you will continue to make them as that was very enjoyable. A great addition to your fantastic collection tour videos. For the next one, should there be a next one, the addition of a lazy susan (turntable) might serve you well. If you have some editing skills, some close ups of the piece would be great too.
Thank you, Bill!! I appreciate your suggestions and welcome others. I did have a lazy susan and it was not spinning very well, so I ditched it right before filming. I enjoy doing my videos in one take, but editing could definitely improve the production value. Thanks for your time and comment.
YESSS!! Ben I think you should totally do more of these types of videos! You've got a calm yet humorous demeanor and the collection knowledge to give insights people may not consider. I've yet to pick this 1 up in fear of getting a googly eyed version but it seems that percentage is lowering and perhaps Weta is aware of that issue and making the effort to rid it. Great video man, looking forward to more!
Thanks Ryan!! I am glad you enjoyed it and hope to do more moving forward. Thanks for the support. The wonky eye was definitely a concern of mine too. It seems that issue has been corrected.
This is the video I didn’t expect, but needed while eating my ham and cheese sandwich lunch today. I think 2023 is a great year to be an LotR collector. I started last year, and in my opinion these Classic series statues are light years ahead of what Weta was making 10-15 years ago. I think I have all of them except Bilbo now, and Galadriel is very well done like the rest. Thanks!
Thanks for checking it with your ham and cheese sandwich. I hope it improved the experience. Lol. The classic line is very good. My current favorite is Gandalf the Grey Pilgrim. Happy collecting!!
Nice ! weight shouldn't matter, once it's in your display cabinet, you won't care. What i want to know is, how it will disappear when she touches Gandalf's hand ? :D ... magic ..

That huge cave troll behind the Smaug bust - where's that from?
It was made by Halimaw and is 1/4 scale.

Weight should not matter but it does seem to impact my thoughts on the piece.
Hell ya bro!!!!!! Instant subscription
Thanks Brian!!
$399 (+ shipping + tax) way too expensive for this piece. should be at least $100 less
