In this video I unbox the Figures of Fandom "The Witch-King of Angmar" 1/8 scale statue from Weta Workshop. With the recent price increase across the board for Weta statues this figure is very good considering it's price tag. To clarify I mentioned that I don't remember him having a flaming sword in the movie but I'm referring to when he's also wielding the Mace when he fights Eowyn. I realize he did have a flaming sword against Gandalf.

Yes definitely a great statue. It’s awesome. Regarding the time when the witch king had flames on his sword was when he faced Gandalf with Pippin when it seemed all hope has faded. That’s when you hear the horns of Gondor come in and flees from Gandalf and to go see what’s going on at the battle of Pellenor fields. Awesome video bud. Cheers

hey man thanks! Yeah I actually had added a note in the description about this. I was referring to when he is welding the mace vs Eowyn. I think him having a flaming sword of a fell beast makes sense but not so much when he is dual wielding. Thanks for commenting dude! By the way did you ever get your UC swords?

@animator77nic Жыл бұрын

The flaming sword was from the extended edition but i also agree that the fire looks bad. It's probably the only thing keeping me from getting this

ahh yeah I meant to say he doesn't have the flame sword while also wielding the Mace. I've never been a big fan of "statue" fire. Thanks for commenting dude :D

Can't you remove those fire pieces? Or, if they come off without breaking, do they leave holes in the base?

Thanks Evan! Yeah I think these are the best "statues for the price" you can get from Weta. I'm hoping the Aragorn ships soon, it was suppose to be Q1 2023.

Rally funny/good editing, btw its kinda hard seeing that the witch king you unboxed inn this video was plastic and i liked the witch king you unboxed on this vid had a better pose than the 2 others, really good video keep on the good work👍👍👍👍👍

hey Olav yeah it's really hard to see its different, makes it worth the $ in my opinion. By the way I really appreciate your support since the early days of my channel, it definitely doesn't go unnoticed 😄

I was referring when he was also wielding the mace. He has the flame sword when on the Nazgul. I agree this is maybe 1 of the best size to price items from Weta! Thanks for commenting

Thinking of buying a couple of these pvc statue's , definately more value compared to the small mini's that are now 120 .... I just hate the bases on these, it looks so cheap. I'm thinking what is possible to mod the bases

Yeah it's very surprising... I knew they were going up but I thought maybe $20 or so? maybe that's a bit ignorant but I wasn't expecting $50.

hi love the video just wondered can the flames on base be removed ?

@thecyberhobbit 5 ай бұрын

Thanks John, I haven't done it personally but I saw some one who did. They aren't meant to be removed but apparently you can sort of "break it" and then redo the top of the base.

What about a Review of that asmus Lurtz? Nice video

@thecyberhobbit 2 жыл бұрын

hey thank you, I unfortunately didn't get it directly from Asmus, it was from a friend and it was used so that's why I didn't unbox/review it.... It has a big scratch on it's back. I do think it's a great little figure! not 1/6 scale obviously but a good size... similar to the Weta Miniatures. If you're looking for a mini Lurtz I do recommend it though. Thanks for commenting!

A statue line i discovered not long ago that fits my wallet and shelf space is Iron Studios 1/10 scale, do you have their witch king?, if its been released.

I understand you said that it was light enough to spin but does the body feel very light, hollow and cheap? Is it sturdy? Thanks I’m advance.

@thecyberhobbit Жыл бұрын

I think it's pretty sturdy, it has a good amount of weight even though it can spin. I think the base might be hollow.

Hello can you please tell me if this statue seems really durable since it is made with PVC?

@thecyberhobbit Жыл бұрын

yes I think so, perhaps even more than a polystone statue because it has a "give" and can bend instead of directly break.

Nice review! Thank you. Also interested in Fandom Gandalf?

@thecyberhobbit 2 жыл бұрын

Hey... I am interested though have refrained from ordering it because I lack the space to put it and already have quite a few Gandalfs. I have 2 other miniature statues of Gandalf as well as the Asmus 1/6 scale... and have also pre-ordered the QueenStudios Gandalf... so I will already have 4 Gandalfs :D I did however pre-order the Lurtz and Aragorn Fandom pieces.

This pvc "statue" is a HUGE disappointment. The "flames" looks more like orange gatorade - NOTHING like the photo on their website. I have the LED Balrog bust & his mane looks great - just like the website pics, even without the LEDs. I guess they went with a (much) cheaper manufacture for this one.
