Limited Edition Gil Galad 1/6 scale statue Unboxing and Review by Weta Workshop

[@pa7bloP]

Insane statue 🔥😍

[@thecyberhobbit]

Really really cool man, I think my favorite part is the shield, such a cool design. I also like that blue vest thing he has... the design on it almost looks like layer lines of a 3d print but obviously it's not, almost looks "digital". Thanks for sharing Alfred!

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

You bet buddy, this one is greatly detailed in the clothing and everywhere else. I really do love this piece. This is definitely one of my grail pieces now. Cheers buddy, thanks

[@bbag1550]

Wow. This one might be even better than Elendil, the detail and paintwork on the clothing, armor, spear and shield to make them look made from real materials is fantastic. Is the spear metal? I bet the inscriptions on the blade are even correct if translated

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Love this statue, it is super awesome with the detail and paint job. The spear is not metal, I believe it’s poly stone like the rest of the statue. Thanks for watching. Cheers

@@themiddleearthcollector2785 The arm you can not fit is not you making a mistake, it is a fault in the statue, other people have the same problem, get in touch with Weta, at this price point that's not ok

[@mertturan9032]

Hi, have you been able to solve the problem with the arm?

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Yes I did, I actually just had to wiggle the arm in so the peg would slide in. I took the time to solve it. I did it ever so softly but firm though so nothing would break. Thanks for getting back to me on that. Cheers. Stay tuned for more coming up.

WOW! Truly amazing! WETA never ceases to blow my mind with the sculpts. I have a question I don't think I asked you before, and if I did, forgive me. Are all the limited pieces hand painted? The details are as usual phenomenal! Thanks again for sharing my fellow Canuck! 🤘😎🖖🇨🇦🕊️

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Yes, all pieces are hand painted by the artists at Weta Workshop far as I know. Thanks for watching, I enjoy making these videos for you guys. It’s definitely an addiction to get different pieces, but can be up there in cost. But Lord of the Rings is my passion and love ever since I seen the movies in the theatres. Cheers

Great statue & review as always. I have the statue & the right arm does go all the way in. I took the spear out of his hand just made it easier to push in all the way in. On mine no gap & can't see any of the peg. Hope this helps don't want the arm to fall off & break. Keep up the great work. Cheers

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Thanks for the info! When inserting the right arm did you have to have the armour on the top be inserted into the body at the same time? Part of the armour is stopping the arm from going in. Or did you have to angle it in? I just wish they would stop doing pegs and just do magnets. So much easier and faster. Thanks for watching bud. Cheers, stat tuned for more.

[@mrdiggles007]

I had to angle it a bit. Once you get the angle right, it will go in easy. Also, put the arm in first, then add the rest. Hope this is helpful. Cheers mate

[@applemonkey7305]

The shield looks so nice

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

It really does. Has tons of detail on it. The armour and clothing has tons too. Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more coming up. Cheers. 😀😀

OMG

[@gilross275]

The actor of the statue is mark ferguson. Benjamin is from the Rings of P🤢wer series. The actor was a good cast but the series is trash.

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Your opinion, but I put this up for the statue not to start a debate for Rings of Power or anything like that. So politely, take that somewhere else. I want positivity on my channel, not negativity. But thanks for trying. Cheers

@@themiddleearthcollector2785 The tv show is great, I agree, too many people drinking basement coolaid these days.

[@LotrCollection]

Great statue! I have been hearing similar issues with assembly of this piece from collectors that are receiving and that its feels lighter in weight. But other than that great details and paintwork. Hope to receive mine soon. Also the actors name is Mark Ferguson that plays him in Fellowship of the ring. I think you mentioned the actor from new series 0:56

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Yes you are correct that it was Mark Ferguson who played Gil Galad in Fellowship. Thanks for the correction. I really mean it. I had to relook it up myself. Haha. The base is definitely lighter than other ones too now that you mention it. Thanks for watching, cheers.

[@kaicollectibles]

Nice one! Maybe use a little heat for the peg! Looks right to me🤔 got the same problem when I got my Sauron with his cape!

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Thanks for the tip! I didn’t want it to break and force it in. Thanks for watching. Cheers

[@kaicollectibles]

Thanks for sharing! I canceled my pre order but after seeing this I might change my mind. Elendil and Sauron are already here so...but the I have to move the ringwraith at the ford😂

[@TheTunnellTake]

Phenomenal!😊😊😊😊

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Thank you, it’s really a great piece and I really do love it. Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more coming up. 😀😀

[@xxii739]

Congratulations! a superb piece! I really love the colour scheme and pose! A jewel in any collection! :)

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Thank you, it definitely is one of my grails now. Love it. Thanks for watching. Cheers

[@markusdowney5457]

Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more. Cheers. I do have my end of year video you can watch for 2023. Minus the ones I got this year.
