Radagast Miniature Statue Unboxing & Review by Weta Workshop from The Hobbit

[@bran7134]

Just found you through the Weta Collectors page and you seem like quite the kindred soul. I too am a developer and love collecting. VERY cool set up, and looks professionally put together. Perfect vid, subbing!

[@thecyberhobbit]

Thank you sir, I really appreciate that!

[@Hollyoftheshire]

Love your collection and enjoying your channel content!

[@thecyberhobbit]

Thank you Holly I appreciate that!

Looks like a great piece! Thanks for another wonderful review, Ryan!

[@thecyberhobbit]

Thanks Alex!

[@ns2664philly]

Another great review Ryan. I’ve preordered mine and can’t wait for it to ship. All three Wizards look great together. Keep the great reviews coming!!!

[@thecyberhobbit]

It really is a great mini, having all 3 together compliment each other well. Thanks for commenting!

[@michaelblack9076]

Awesome piece! He looks great with the other Wizards too. I’m a fan of The Hobbit so this one is pretty cool. A Dain Ironfoot would be good in this scale too!

[@thecyberhobbit]

Oh yeah that's another character that had a very unique look, agreed it would be great!

[@themiddleearthcollector2785]

Love this little statue. It’s awesome. Tons of detail. Gonna get him soon too. Cheers

[@thecyberhobbit]

Thanks buddy!

[@m0rktfh284]

Beautiful statue! I always liked Radagast, even it looked kinda weird in the books XD not a fan of the Hobbit movies, but the first one is the one I like the most and I remember Radagast in it. Sorry for the little Sebastian breaking off, I hope you can fix it!

[@thecyberhobbit]

Thanks yeah my favorite is the first movie as well. The Hobbit book as a kid was what introduced me to Tolkien so I'm sort of bias. Thanks for commenting!

The three together look great! 🧙‍♂️🧙🏻‍♂️🧙🏽‍♂️ 5:08

They really compliment each other, thanks for the comment!

I Think This So Cool Love All The Videos 🙂

[@DarthBlaze]

Very cool Statue!!

[@thecyberhobbit]

thanks man

[@nickbonavita1379]

I just got mine in but mine didn't come with the removable Sebastian so I sent it back.😊 They send you all the good stuff.

[@thecyberhobbit]

Hey there, so just to be clear, in my video my statue was broken and I actually glue the Sebastian back on. It's not suppose to be removable.

[@thecyberhobbit]

You're not alone with Weta issues, this was actually my 5th thing from Weta that was broken on arrival.

[@nickbonavita1379]

@@thecyberhobbit I know, just busting your chops like with the Aragorn Hunter of the Plains with the broken hair.😁

[@krzychuk.6364]

I actually think he’s the best character in the Hobbit. Aside from Gandalf and Tauriel of course 😅 I’m kind of tempted to get him now

[@thecyberhobbit]

Yeah one of my favorites from it for sure, such an interesting character. Thanks for the comment!

[@curiouscat222]

nice critical thoughts about the product. generally, I think the paint job is quite lacking for the price in the weta line. and their shipping generally is not very price friendly. my first and last was captain haddock.

[@rickyonthewebs9841]

I don’t collect the miniature line, but this one looks pretty cool and detailed and looks great with the other wizards.

[@thecyberhobbit]

Yeah these are great for the price, thanks for commenting Ricky!

[@jgonz1066]

All we need is a mini gandalf the white

[@thecyberhobbit]

that would be cool but I'm hoping they focus the rest of the fellowship first.

[@gandalf4751]

😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@arnodafe]

Just wondering if you play Guardians of Middle Earth ? Can play as all three wizards there - Radaghast has lovely spells including flocks of birds etc 🍷😏

[@thecyberhobbit]

I do not but I just checked it out and it does seems pretty cool. Is it similar to a Dota or LoL?

[@arnodafe]

@@thecyberhobbit exactly! No one really plays online - on Steam, the DLC characters are gone so you have to unlock them by playing and earning gold - many are just different outfits of an already unlocked character - its good fun !

[@peterparker7293]

@@arnodafe so there is an offline mode?

[@arnodafe]

@@peterparker7293 yeah play private game with 9 other npcs - just select 'private game' and choose your character. With so updates on windows etc, you may need a program to open it through, otherwise the cursor is limited on screen - i'll add it here when i see what its called - free download program. 🍷😏

[@peterparker7293]

@@arnodafe that‘d be great, because the cursor is just no working

[@Phodis]

I think Gandalf, Gimli, and Saruman look spot on... but they missed the mark on Radagasts face by quite a bit. Its a shame as the rest of him looks good.

[@thecyberhobbit]

Yeah it's definitely one of the weaker face sculpts from the miniature line but it's still looks good when posed with the other miniatures. I think it's one of those things where the collective makes the individual look better.

[@brucelugliArt]

I really like Weta's work, I think that his sculptures do not look for a resemblance to the actor, but rather something intermediate between the resemblance and something more left to the interpretation of the character, which I think is very good. On the other hand, I think that Weta's quality control and packaging is a weak point, I think you should make a claim because the figure arrived broken, maybe they will replace it with one in good condition.

[@thecyberhobbit]

Yeah I think Weta found a nice middle ground, given the price they intend to sell these for it's as close as I would expect. I agree their QC could use some work, it's always disappointing to find something broken, though sometimes it could just be careless mail carriers so I try to keep that in mind. Thanks for commenting!

[@brucelugliArt]

@@thecyberhobbit These days I will be receiving Gollum, from the Mini Epics line, I hope it arrives in good condition, it is the first figure I have collected from this line.

[@thecyberhobbit]

@@brucelugliArt Oh nice! the mini epics tend to bit more forgiving when it comes to breaks as the material can give way a bit, I think it should be good. thanks again!

[@brucelugliArt]

@@thecyberhobbit Yes I think so! ok congratulations for the channel!! keep uploading more videos of these, which all Tolkien fans enjoy
