Hello Wētā Workshop,
Thank you for watching my videos!! I am extremely humbled and uplifted by your generous words. To be acknowledged by such esteemed artisans is beyond rewarding. The things you create are not just statues, but portals to the richness of Middle-earth! They really help to capture the imagination / wonder Tolkien gave us and bring into our homes. Thank you for inspiring creators and collectors alike.
With gratitude and excitement for what you do in the future,
Ryan The Cyber Hobbit
One does not simply buy such a beautiful piece of art.
Absolutely unbelievable piece. If there was only one statue someone could pick to represent all of the films, this would be it.
It's the perfect culmination piece to Frodo's journey, it's truly magnificent! Thanks for the comment!
@@thecyberhobbit Oh God, I See Sam's Shoulder Right is Bleeding 😧
I think this piece deserves to be in the very middle of living room. This is not like a collection statue, it's more like a piece of art!
Could it be said that this sculpture along with the Dead Marshes sculpture are the best that Weta has made so far? I know that he made many good sculptures, but these two, along with the Babol one, are really surprising.
Congratulations on the purchase.
If ever I questioned if I should have order this piece or not. I question no more, and can't wait until my own arrives!
Congratulations for this fine piece of Art *absolutely stunning*
looks amazing 👌👌👌
You got it! This is the one singular piece that I dream of stewarding one day. It is so unbelievably amazing. Weta absolutely outdid themselves and it is hands down the most impressive statue they have created. The detail is just unbelievable. Absolutely beautiful.
Great unboxing, and congratulations! It has the perfect home and steward.
Fully agree, I don't know how they'll ever top it, a grand conclusion for the Journey of Frodo. Thanks for the comment Donavan!
I love the detail on Gwaihir's eyes, Weta's pieces have always been my favorite.
They've made the assembly much easier to follow on these recent statues colour coded and number coded thanks WETA.
To be fair, I actually did the numbering, weta only did the color coding of the wings, they were sort of lacking for the feathers
Magnifique ! ❤
Amazing piece and fantastic review. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Weiyunchi!
The details on these WW pieces are just absolutely stunning. Flawless!
They could have added some feathers to get on top of the line where wings and body meet, to hide it, but overall it looks awesome. But I wouldn't even have a place to expose it xD
Dude, what a video! What an incredible piece you own. You luckkkkkky guy 😂😂
This is an amazing piece. Thank you for sharing and displaying this masterpiece. “The feathers, the feathers, the feathers!!!!”😊❤
Seeing this at the Weta Cave was so cool. They have it displayed like an artifact in a museum, such an awesome piece
It really is a piece you have to see in person, so ridiculously good!
awesome statue 👍👍
Great video!
Thank you!
OMG, to say this magnificent is an understatement! 😮 Pretty much a perfect sculpt imo, I'm almost speechless🤯 Great video and commentary as always! 🍻👌🏽
It really is amazing, thanks for the comment!
Hi, Ryan. I really enjoyed the video and echo everything you said about it. I too am so very glad that I have this in my collection.
Thanks again, for another terrific unboxing and review. 👍
Glad to hear other share my opinion, it's absolutely wonderful. Thank you for watching and I appreciate the comment!
It's an amazing piece that commands attention. It's a privilege to have it in my collection. Excellent unboxing/review!
Glad to hear you got 1 Jodi, it's a show stealer for sure, Thanks for commenting!
It’s here 🎉 Thanks for the fantastic in depth, well filmed, voiced over, review. What a great majestic piece 🤩 Perfectly suited for the new room. Enjoy!
Thank you Milky!
This is an amazing piece to add to your collection! I never realized it was as large as it actually is! I'm also always amazed with the amount of detail Weta puts into their sculptures. Thanks for sharing Ryan!
I got shivers when you spoke about salvation. Spectacular work of art portraying such moving and important moment of the story.
it 's the perfect name for the scene!
Loved and really enjoyed your review buddy, top notch! Can’t wait to have this in hand. Quality is amazing! One of the best, IF not the best!
Nice job 🫡
Ryan, you always make the best reviews! Thanks!!!!
Holy crap this is next level mate! Glad you were able to secure this piece 👏
Insane piece. Congratulations so much on getting this statue, Ryan! The production quality of this video is also damn good!
Really appreciate that, thanks for watching!
beautiful !
Awesome piece and awesome video! Also, thanks for adding that quick comparison with the miniature Gandalf.
Yeah I guess you can say its the greatest statue of the Miniature line 😆, Thanks for commenting!
Looks amazing
Eu passaria horas e horas apenas admirando esse tesouro imponente.
Eu pretendo fazer exatamente isso! obrigado por assistir
Absolutely a great review! And that piece looks awesome in your video. I am glad that you like it that much! Awesome man
Thanks Kai! it really is a ridiculously well made statue, I was cautiously optimistic as it was very pricey but once I started unboxing and seeing it with my own eyes I knew I was in a for a treat. Appreciate the comment man, hope you are well!
Looks awesome!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…..I am so envious of this piece. My favourite bird of prey, one of my favourite scenes in the movie and has part of Mt Doom in it. Dang I missed out on this magnificent masterpiece. Goosebumps all over my body watching this buddy. Just awesome, and makes me want to come visit you to see it in person. I was on edge of my seat watching this screaming wanting this statue. 🤣🤣🤣. Cheers man, and congrats getting this beautiful piece
Of all pieces I own, it's really a thing you have to see in person before you really get it, it looks great on video but absolutely wonderful in person. It steals the spotlight of my collection room... especially with the lighting. Thanks for commenting man!
That is phenomenal!
This peice is EPIC! LOVE IT! ❤️ Too bad I can't spend $3k plus $400 for shipping lol!
I hear ya, I did it through a payment plan but it is indeed pricey!
WOW,just wow,great statue! Thanks for the assembling notes,it will helps us.
Thanks Ahap! Yeah I really wish Weta could have numbered the feathers, just be sure to not mix them up, it's be VERY confusing if that happened.
@@thecyberhobbit I'd better mark them in advance.Thank you and enjoy this piece of art my friend.☺
@@ahapalbin5349Yeah I considered doing this too, a small black sharper should easily be able to write a tiny number on the joining part.
@@thecyberhobbit 👍
Magnificent statue. I had doubts because it looked like less intricate and detailed than other Weta pieces, but I have to say, there are less elements but all of them are great. The Eagle is incredible. Amazing piece and outstanding video & review as usual.
Thats a grail if I ever saw one
definitely!
Stunning!😍
This is an amazing piece and an amazing review!
What a brilliant piece! 👌🏻
truly!
That's a hell of a good Frodo!!!.. maybe the best likeness I have seen to date. I think a small drop of nuln along his closed eyelid would help ...but man that's really good and rare to see a captured figure of Frodo accurate from all angles. Both him and Aragorn seem impossible to get right.
Wow, when you added the extra curled up feathers!!.. awesome. I wouldn't even consider the "Seam" to be an issue what so ever, it's perfect.. the feathers rock, the base and lava rock when lit look A M A Z I N G. That there good sir, is a grail!. Ohh yeah I almost forgot... I hate you right now :)
Yeah it's pretty incredible to get a sculpt likeness that's accurate at such a small scale but you're right they did an amazing job, especially with Frodo. Agree with the seam, it's there but you have to look for it, otherwise you never see it. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment, I love you right now 😆
Waauuw insanely cool
Thanks for the comment Kobi!
Well done, this was an absolute joy to watch. Congratulations, you have a beautiful piece here!
Thanks Chris!
Your videos are the best. Congrats on getting the jewel of the collection 👏👏 I'm certainly appreciative of the work you put in to acquire and build this collection and then to show it to us all so beautifully.
Thank you Pepe, thanks for the comment!
Amazing review Amazing Statue your collection is out of this world!!!
Thanks Mr Diggles!
Since its sold out obv, I thought I'd check Ebay already being up sold for 1500 extra 😅 really nice piece
Thank you for sharing like always. Absolutly stunning piece of art. Wow! Now only you miss the salvation of mount doom art piece from Venderstelt ;D
I only wish I had the room to hang it near where I planned to keep the statue, It's definitely a wonderful piece of art. Thanks for commenting!
Excellent video! Thank you! Can't wait to get mine!
You will love it, my video can't do it justice! You have to see it in person.
I'm really looking forward to your next tour to see where you will place the statue (the wingspan is crazy !)
Amazing piece! You inspired me to create my own collection. Weta gave you a shoutout on a Twitter post. Wouldn't that sick if Richard Taylor himself watches your videos?
Ryan, seriously, this is the best review ive ever seen for a statue, or anything else for the matter. I honestly had a tear in my eye for how beautifully this was done. I wouldnt have thought that this was going to be one of wetas best mcs, but you sold me. Beautiful review for a beautiful statue. You honestly are the best of the best dude! Thanks for sharing all your passions with us... were not worthy dude.
Wow thank you man, that really means a lot to me. I always try to take what I learn from every video and apply it to the next so after a 100+ videos I think I've figured out a style that works good for what I know how to do. These video do take a while to make, sometimes multiple hours just to get a single minute correct and how I want it. Many takes to say correctly the lines of dialogue I want without stumbling over words, I've thought about maybe sometime making a "how I make videos" video as there are a lot of steps to get things just how I want them. Unfortunately the process being long does mean I keep getting behind in the many videos I have planned and want to do, but it all seems to feel worth it once I hit the upload button. Thanks again for the nice comment Jacob!
You should be the voice over for every youtube channel, your voice is so soothing ! ;)
Thank you I really appreciate that, a lot has to do with the microphone and taking time to clean up the recordings with Adobe Audition. Thanks for the comment!
@@thecyberhobbit naaaa, you just know how to do voiceovers 😎
@@PixelForgeLabI also write a script as I'm doing the voiceovers and what you don't see in my heavily editd videos are the sometimes 5-6 attempts to say something without stumbling over my words, best take wins 😆
Another beautiful piece by Weta and a very well done video Ryan! I really enjoyed the care and in-depth, close up detail you took the time to capture. If space and money where unlimited I'd order one of everything, but space is extremely limited and haven't anywhere to put it to do it justice. As always, I enjoy all your content and look forward to your next one!
Thanks man! It really is one of their best I think. Yeah space is always always the issue, having just moved I'm already running out myself. Really appreciate you watching and leaving a comment, always good to hear from you.
Not a piece I want but looks great... good showcasing
Thanks for watching!
This is such a great piece! Will be hunting this down after I’m done paying my infinity studios Aragorn 😂
I can't recommend it enough, it's so well done, you would love it! Thanks for commenting Eric!
Hey, I'm actually gonna keep my helm and get the new one when it comes out, you may want to too... im thinking this helm we got may be worth $ in the future since it was a mistake, the helm was never supposed to be shipped and sold like that, so there can't be too many out there, thus = rare. I know star wars made a blunder similar to this case, where they shipped a kenner action figure and there was a mistake on the figure, they recalled it back in the 80's, and now it's worth a lot! Just a thought! 😉
Sad that it was sold out. I am just happy that there is a 3D scan avaiable and you are able to print it out yourself.
if anyone fancys Shiratech with 20% tenacious shirayatech resin gives extremely crips details and makes it unbrekable, for the glow effect a simple led array with a soft defuser in the base.
Total Print cost is at around 140$ and takes a week to print out depending on print size.
wish you could buy it from the shop. But all wetaworkshop 3D scans that where sold out are thank good absolutly god tier scans.
Appreciate the comment! Yeah the Master Collection pieces sell out almost instantly. Really curious where you found the 3d scan. Could you tell me what to search?
Yeah...no. 🤣
Looks amazing, are you going to review the white tree piece soon?
Think i have to own this!
Congrats man!! Absolutely stunning 🙌🏽
Thank you, appreciate the comment!
I love the vids man. This is such a cool piece too. I would like to see tho Thorin Oakenshields regal sword, I know there is low availability tho. Keep up the videos!
Love the review. Absolute stunning piece.
Thanks for the comment!
Gorgeous! I too love this piece. However, I don't think I'll ever own one. Big congrats on adding this fantastic piece to your collection, Ryan. Great video, as usual. Very nice camera work, editing, sound and commentary. I always look forward to you unboxing videos. Keep up the good work, buddy.
really appreciate that Bill, always glad to see a comment from you! Appreciate you watching, it's a magnificent piece!
Great review! Btw, does it still display well together with 1/6 or don't bother and just got to display it with other Minis?
Great vid. It got me all excited to get mine opened up, but when I did found that I have a bunch of issues unfortunately. Hopefully can get those sorted out, it is an amazing piece.
oh no, that's not good to hear, curious what issues you had.
@@thecyberhobbitMostly that both wings had broken feathers and my LEDs are blinking like crazy. I think maybe UPS was rough on it.
@@user-hx4br8to3qYIKES, that really unfortunate... sorry to hear. Hopefully it gets worked out.
Wonderful piece 🌋
Epic even. Thanks for the review and I’m glad you’re back! Any hints as what other unboxing or reviews we can expect?
Also, what do you think of the newest release from Weta (WK of the Unseen Lands) ? I’ve always loved this character and while I’ve been waiting for a 1/6th return of the king version I’m definitely getting this one as a sort of consolation prize 😅
I've actually got quite a number of things lined up, unfortunately I got delayed from my move but slowly getting back into the swing of things. So many things still sitting in boxes await time for me to do a video: Saruman on Throne, Classic Series Frodo, Classic Series Lurtz, Miniature Treebeard, Miniature Balrog, Miniature Fellbeast, Classic Series Fountain Guard, Fountain Guard of the White Tree, UC Uruk-Hai sword, UC Gondorian Helmet, UC Elven Strider Knife, 1/6 Labyrinth Ludo, 1/6 Labyrinth Hoggle, 1/6 Labyrinth Sir Diddymus, 1/6 Gil Galad and I'm sure some others I'm forgetting. Not to mention I've been working on a 15 foot diorama I've been building of the Shire using all the Weta Hobbit Holes. Lots coming!
@@thecyberhobbit will be waiting for those vids ✨👀
Another amazing review thank you! By any chance do you own the Classic Series Frodo Baggins Ringbearer 1/6 scale by Weta? Any thoughts on that piece, I'm not so sure on the facesculpt.
hERMOSO CANAL, HERMOSA COLECCION!!!! ESTARIA DISPUESTO JUNTO CON MI FAMILIA EL VIAJAR TAN SOLO PORA OBSERVAR LA MAS INCREIBLE COLECCION EN TODO EL MUNDO CON RESPECTO AL SEÑOR DE LOS ANILLOS. SALUDOS DESDE CORDOBA VER. MEXICO
Superb video & I have to say, having watched this, a part of me now pines for it & I have a pang of regret not having gone for it….
But… as amazing as it looks… would it really fit in with my ‘dark & villainous’ collection?…
Either way, superb vid once again matey and really chuffed for you, as this piece seriously does look incredible! 👍🏻
Thank you sir! it really is a ridiculously well made statue, once it was put together and the lighting on, I stopped filming and kind of just sat there staring at it for a while. It has such a presence. Yeah not sure how well it'd fit in with a dark & villain collection, that being said, if ever there was an exception it should be this piece. Thanks for commenting man!
Can't wait to get mine 😎How did you get yours so early? Mine says Q4 😭
Hey Ryan, thank you very much for another amazing video. Would you be able to tell me the diameter of the base? Thanks! - Mike
Did you see the new video out with Kit Rae on the "lord of the collections" channel? He talks about all things lotr! And the he talks about the "issues" with the high elven helm... apparently it was an accident, they weren't finished with those helms, and some how, someone put them in the wrong department/location, and they shipped them from the factory. Did budk sort things out with you?
I did see that! so unfortunately because I had moved, I got it before the move and then opened it later at my new home once it was all setup... but it was more than 60 days so they said "no".
@@thecyberhobbit that's b.s. They should honor all returns since it was a mistake by UC and their factories. Oh well.
switch-a-roo 😉
this is so gooodd, how can i buy it?
Amazing! What was the price? I see in a shop in my country its 3200 dollars! 😵💫
I paid $3,300 (including shipping). It's an expensive piece but once you see it in person it all feels worth it.
Awesome statue and found it on ebay for 4500 eur 😮😀 I would rather save that money for a wedding in a Hobbiton. Watch that movie, they sad, it is not expensive...Oh, we are doomed by LOTR 😀 One world to to rule them all and in a darkness bind them 😀
Ryan, I sent a message to your FB on the packaging for Salvation of Doom as mine was not quite packed correctly, and hoping you might have some wisdom to impart.
sorry again, hope extra the video helped!
It is extremely helpful
