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

Oh man! I’ve longed for that Citadel guard helm since 2003. Or whenever it was that I first saw it. I’m guessing it would be resin? No, metal like infantry helm. It's the same helm shell, just different decor. I suppose we could do it in resin, but I don't know why anyone would want that. Oh where ...

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

Agreeing with Val here. I would love the Theodred sword to be battle damaged- like it was picked up off the field. I guess if it doesn’t happen I will have my first project to change mine. You have two Swords of Eowyn? No. And I wouldn’t bother to change one to Theodred’s sword. But if United do Th...

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

I can see your point on the fact that it would be an ‘eye sore’ to some extent. But for me that is what makes it the way to go. The real lovers of the story can embrace it as being more authentic. ‘This one picked up off the battlefield’. ‘This one belonged to Theodred who fell defending the Mark’. ...

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

In regard to the hair, can I also add my 2 cents worth (in case you don’t know). Hair has a nap - meaning a right way up. You need to attach the hair in the direction it would be if it was growing out of the helm (so the direction it grew from the horse essentially). This is very important in wig ma...

Re: Happy New Year!

Happy new year everyone. Let’s hope it is a surprisingly wonderful year. Well it will be for me. I’m getting 2 kittens soonish.


Bit of a shock opening this thread and seeing that post from Thranduil - then realizing it was from last year.

Re: Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas all. We had quite the normal Christmas here in oz except I couldn’t cook as I’ve broken my wrist. Had a massive surprise gift from a distant family member who dropped in. He is decluttering and gave me his only two lotr items as a present. Well of course, I already have them but how ...

Re: RIP Thranduil

Well, stunned is the word for me. I am very sad to hear this news. Andrew was a passionate craftsman and willing to share and support others. I will treasure my ‘Thranduil’ pieces all my life. Rest In Peace Andrew. Well, rest - perhaps you should look for Feanor and get cracking on some more cool st...

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

I’m not sure I have an opinion. From what I remember it is big and impressive. But tbh, mine has been in storage since I got it. I remember Christian added extra packaging because some were arriving with a crack between the head and the handle. So be careful if buying on the second hand market.

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

The new releases are good and bad to me. I don’t like the FoF nor the mini Epics. I collected the mini Epics fellowship and am somewhat regretting it now. I take my figures seriously so the cartoony feel of them doesn’t fit me or my collection. Cave Troll - nah. I’m with Val once again. I’m not liki...

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

I was actually surprised to see it being talked about again. I know that it has failed prototype twice (at least). I’m not sure what they have decided upon now. As far as the translucent resin of the Witchking. I’ve seen a pic - monumental. I’m not sure if I’ll get it but it might be very hard to re...

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

Hi all. Sorry I’ve been absent so long. Finally pulled my finger out and made it a priority. I’m looking forward to these new United pieces. Anyone picking up the UC Eomer helm even if you already have the Thranduil one? I’m just curious on it I guess. I’d love to see it in person and the only way t...
