Summoned from their barred tombs, the Nine rose to surround the lone Elf: undead Ringwraiths, greatest servants of the Dark Lord Sauron. No mere mortal thralls, the Nazgul were spirit beings, bound to their Master by the Rings of Power they bore, gifts to them in an age long past, when they were living men. From all corners of Middle-earth they had come, flocking to their Lord on the promises of power, knowledge and riches: from Forod, the north; Harad, the south; from the east; and from the west. Eagerly they had accepted the Rings proffered them by Sauron, flattered and hungry, and in return they surrendered their eternal souls to the Deceiver. Their bodies long since spent, they gathered in Dol Guldur as grim echoes of their former selves, yet more potent for the irresistible might of their master flowing through them. Wielding terror and despair like the savage blades gripped in their mailed hands, they closed upon the White Lady like the folding wings of a great, black bird.
Ringwraith of Forod
Sculpted by the masterful Gary Hunt – the same sculptor behind our 1:30 scale Dol Guldur series – comes the Ringwraith in 1:6 scale. Available in a Limited Edition of 500 and crafted from high-quality polystone.
Note: Images are of a pre-production prototype. Each collectible statue is hand-painted and minor variations may occur.
Weta Workshop’s high-quality Middle-earth collectibles are designed by the very same artists and technicians who work on our movies. It takes hundreds of hours to design, sculpt, model make, mold, and paint the prototype for each new piece. Whether it be a prop replica, beautiful environment or iconic character, we treat our collectibles with the same level of care and attention to detail that we bring to our film work.
