Just curious as I took a peek on ebay to see what they were selling for and nearly crapped myself.

I have not checked ebay and do not know what these are selling for.  What kind of prices did you see?


: Re:Got my Weta Minas Morgul (pics)
: DewDude January 19, 2005, 06:23:16 AM
$200 to $300 last I checked.

Now that is just plain crazy!  I do not understand why Sideshow did not make more pieces to satisfy demand.  They should have made Minas Morgul an open edition like the Minas Tirith piece you got in the Collector's Edition!   The piece is not worth that price.  I have the other 3 Environments - Mines of Moria, The Golden Hall, and Helm's Deep and they are huge compared to Minas Tirith and Minas Morgul which are small pieces.

My Minas Morgul (#4943 / 8500) arrived this morning.

I do like the green hue it has and it complements Minas Tirith nicely, though judging by the current eBay prices I am tempted to leave it in the box & sell it !

I love the smell of polystone in the morning.

The odd thing is Ed that in Sideshow weta terms 8500 does seem to be quite a lot ... but I guess they get far more publicity on the DVD statue than any other - so it makes sense.

I have no idea why they include an application form in with the DVD - if you sent that off by post you'd have NO CHANCE of getting one!!!
