WETA BARAD-DUR FORTRESS OF SAURON STATUE LIMITED LORD OF THE RINGS TOLKIEN. THIS ITEM IS A VERY PRE-PRODUCTION SAMPLE, BUT LIKE YOU CAN SEE IN THE LAST PICTURES ONE IF THE POINTS OF THE TOWER HAS BEEN DAMAGE AND REPAIRED, AND THIS IS A PRE-PRODUCTION PIECE SO IT HAS A SEPARATION WHERE THE PIECES OF THE TOWER GET TOGETHER WITH THE BASE. ALS THE BOTTOM OF THE BASE DOESN'T SHOW THE WETA LOGO, AND IT DOESN'T COME WITH THE ORIGINAL BOX, OR PACKING, BUT IT HAS THE ORIGINAL CUSTOM BOX WITH A PICTURE AND STYFORAM PACKING. THE REPLICA HAS SOME DUST. Soaring from the base, the ominous dark tower reaches an impressive total height of more than 20 inches (530 mm) and weighs in at a staggering 22 lbs (10 kg).
Torn down after his defeat at the Last Alliance of Men and Elves at the end of the Second Age, over centuries the Dark Tower was rebuilt even greater than it had been before, for while the Ring survived, the foundations of Sauron's power would always remain intact and his power grow again. Looming three-thousand feet over the parched plains of Mordor was the vast and terrible fortress of Barad-dûr, the home of the Dark Lord Sauron. Held aloft by the iron will of its master, the great tower was the ultimate testimony to the might of Sauron.From its black stone summit the Dark Lord would cast his malevolent gaze across the desolate stretch of Gorgoroth to the west, seeking the return of the Ring that held the key to his dominion of Middle-earth. Our authentic prop replicas and collectibles are designed by the very same artists who have worked on the three films, so effectively they come straight from Middle-earth. Richard Taylor - CEO & Co-founder, Weta WorkshopA behemothWeta's most elaborate and intricate environment from The Lord of the Rings, Barad-dûr - Fortress of Sauron is the crowning glory in a line that contains such icons as Orthanc - Black Tower of Isengard, Bag End, The Argonath and of course the magnificent Rivendell.
The menace of the Dark Lord is perfectly captured in every detail, this piece is an EXACT model of the Shooting Miniature (or BIG-ature) used by director Peter Jackson in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Every crag, buttress, rampart and pinnacle has been expertly reproduced by Weta Senior Model maker David Tremont and his team of model makers, mould makers, sculptors and painters. Barad-dûr - Fortress of Sauron is different to other environments in that it will be made from a combination of polystone and polyureth. Check out my other auctions.
