Re: The Elfstone

Nice find Night Rider, haven't seen that one. I think I still prefer Badali's version. Any indication when it will hit the market?

Re: Hello from Australia

[quote=""BladeCollector""]Sorry, I should have been more clear, I meant the users in question or being "revealed", I've always knew you were a lady ☺[/quote] I don't know why, but I feel compelled to curtsy to this, lol. ;) I am quite refreshed to know I'm among some mo...

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""BladeCollector""] My favorite space movie that isn't Star Trek would be Apollo 13, I havent seen it in years, but I was in middle school still awe-inspired by space and stuff, so I thought it was super cool[/quote] I still love this movie. Probably in my top 10. :thumbs_up

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""Valkrist""]Yes, but when your favourite movie wins, everyone likes to be able to brag about that. No one here complained that LOTR got a lot of Oscars. Quite the opposite. But when your favourite movie does not win, suddenly it doesn't count because the Oscars are meani...

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""BladeCollector""]I don't put a lot of credit in the Oscars, it seems like its all momentum for movies/actors.... if anything, SMAUG should have won best effects, hands down, period, end of discussion![/quote] I agree with you there. I saw Gravity. I did enjoy it, but win...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

[quote=""Valkrist""] N2, your picture made me realize that Gandalf and Radagast are holding the same staff, if what we've been led to believe is true! :huh: [/quote] I think Radagast's staff is Gandalf's first staff in Fellowship (the one that holds the pipe). The statue looks li...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Valkrist""]Could someone please post a picture of this Made in China sticker that everyone is complaining about? I hate it when companies do stuff like this. Yeah, we get it: you saved a ton of money by making this cheaply in China, now thanks for ruining our collectible...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Valkrist""]I say we cut the number to twelve and just call ourselves the Dirty Dozen. :coolsmile As part of this team of investigative collectors and blade afficionados, I propose myself, BC, SH, Nerdanel, Lindir, GW, Fin, N2, Buckeye, Rosere, Arwyniel, and Deimos as gro...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""EagleFriend""]Arwyniel, may Eru Ilúvatar bless you and your quest! :) [/quote] Lol, thank you! It's in Indy's hands now. If I don't hear anything I'll check back with him in a week or two. He's got the measurements and seen all the pics and is seeing if it can be done. I...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""GuardianWolf""]Sign me up as interested in Guthwine. Any idea where I can see some of his work...?[/quote] http://www.indyprops.com is his personal website. And I should clarify something I said earlier...I thought he had completed Inigo Montoya's sword, but it is still ...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Lindir""]Hmm thats quite a good price. I was e xp ecting more. Hopefully we can get a few buyers lined up. I'm looking forward to seeing how this progresses. By the way, was his Jack Sparrow sword made from Stainless steel or carbon?[/quote] I don't know, the description...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Lindir""]Is there any way to modify the wall mounts for the bows so that they can sit on the wall vertically? When I get Tauriel's bow and Legolas' bow I'd rather they were displayed vertically rather than the horizontal layout. I really like the design of the little wal...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Nasnandos""]I think the stunt prop I had was slightly shorter than the hero props because the blade tip was blunted, but the sword should be 86.4cm long, the guard is 103mm wide, and the whole hilt from the tip of the horse noses to the end of the pommel is 20.8cm long.[...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Lindir""]You could pass along that photo I found of Guthwine so he could use it as reference. I'm curious as to what materials he'd make it in though.[/quote] I definitely will, thank you. He made an amazing Jack Sparrow sword out of metal and wood. He also made Inigo Mo...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Valkrist""] Arwyniel, stop teasing us. ;) [/quote] No teasing, I am serious. If someone is willing to make it, I will try to get the information that they need to get things going. When someone tells me that no, that project is not going to happen then I will let it be. ...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

So this morning I sent Indy a pm wondering whatever became of "The Guthwine Project". He answered me with: "Did we ever get confirming measurements?" Soooo, if Jash or Kit could possibly give me an answer to provide him with, we may be able to have a small ray if hope come back f...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

That is horrible!!! I'm so glad to hear you have figured out a work around for the time being though. Wow! Sounds like Weta is biting off more than they can chew. When Darren replied to me, he apologized twice and said that they were under a huge amount of work, having a difficult time keeping up wi...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

[quote=""Valkrist""] Arwyniel, it's been some time since you told us the White Council Chamber would be on its way to you soon. Has it arrived? How about a review and some size comparison photos next to Rivendell? :coolsmile [/quote] It's been some time? Tell me about it!!! It's ...

Re: The Hobbit

We had a 30 minute delay at our theater. We were already antsy but getting even more so. Had the "windows active desktop recovery" on our screen. So glad we didn't have to go home and miss it. This girl is not a night owl.

Re: The Hobbit

First off, has anyone been having trouble connecting to the servers here? I couldn't get here yesterday at all. Wondered if if was just me or not. Edit: never mind, saw the comments in the chat. Secondly, I went to the midnight showing last night. While there are certain parts I really did like (eve...

Re: I love this place!

I was so shocked to notice that I've been here almost 10 years too! I guess it shouldn't surprise me since FOTR came out over 10 years ago itself, but it still is crazy to think about. But just another plug for this place: Val helped me out with some technical headaches I was e xp eriencing here tod...

I love this place!

I know currently it's a small group of people, but that is one of my favorite things about this place. It really feels like a close knit group and everyone is so respectful. I've noticed if ever any hairs get raised, it gets resolved quickly and above all RESPECTFULLY. I'm so impressed with this com...

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""Valkrist""] Arwyniel, let us know what you think of the statue when you unbox it![/quote] Oh, I just got the Blu-ray, nothing special. The only resin "statues" I get are the environments and I haven't bought anymore of those since pre-ruin Orthanc. Was tempted ...

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""Valkrist""] At any rate, who has ordered their copy of the EE today? I'm sure most of you had it pre-ordered but I didn't bother until today, which means it won't arrive until next week, but that's ok. I got the box set from Amazon with the Weta statue of Bilbo and Frodo...

Re: Farewell my friends

Aww, that's too bad but I understand that sometimes places like forums and Facebook are time suckers. I'll miss seeing your pictures but hope to see you back someday when you have more time available. Good luck to you! :)
