Weta unveils stunning new statue of THE LORD OF THE RINGS’ King of the Dead

Weta has unveiled a new statue of Peter Jackson’s King of the Dead The Lord of the Ringsand this thing is awesome! They captured the amazing look of this character perfectly.

This is the third time they have made a statue of this character and this is by far the best one ever created!

Here is the character description: “Deep within the dark heart of the mountain, the King of the Dead waited, a figure shrouded in ancient majesty and bitter resentment. Clad in spectral armor and crowned with the weight of countless ages, the king stood defiantly. His eyes, ablaze with an unearthly light, regarded the supposed heir of Isildur™ with a mixture of pride and contempt.”

Here is the King of the Dead, “an impressive 1:6 scale statue meticulously crafted by our master craftsmen. He emerges from the eerie depths of the In Paths of the Dead, this spectral monarch has a chilling gaze and a haunting face.

“Every detail, from the finely sculpted armor adorned with ancient, tarnished symbols to the otherworldly glow of his piercing eyes, speaks of a cursed fate and unyielding power.

In life, he was a king; in death, he is a legend. Bound by an unbroken oath, he stands as a testament to honor and the dire consequences of broken promises. Let his presence in your collection serve as a reminder of the eternal struggle between duty and redemption.

“With an aura of eerie majesty, this statue captures the very essence of the undead ruler, making it a must-have for any fan of the timeless saga of Middle-earth.”

CHARACTERISTICS:

  • 1:6 scale;

  • Limited edition of 700 pieces;

  • It represents the King of the Dead as seen in The Return of the King™;

  • The transparent material and expert application of paint create a ghostly, eerie glow;

  • Digitally sculpted by Fabio Paiva with references to the original costume from the film.

Weta says: “As materials technology improves, we are able to revisit characters and bring more to their interpretation than was previously possible. This is the first time we have fully utilized these technologies: completely transparent resins, a skull behind the skin of his face, improved 3D printing techniques…

“We really felt the need to revisit the King of the Dead and show him not just as a physical being, but also as an ethereal being, just as he appeared on screen.”
