I am of course talking about Kropserkel.

They make some extreme replicas of the nazgul armours, as well as some conceptual nazgul armour. If you ask me, their price is extremely cheap, around 1500 bucks for a pair of witch-king/nazgul gauntlets, and only 7500 for the full witch king suit seen at the battle of the pelennor fields.
These armours are supposed to be fully functional, and I'm currently aiming for both the witch king armour and the hell bent nazgul armour. (I just hope I'll manage to save enough lol)
They also make the crown of the witchking (first link) as well as some other stuff. You can email them for prices, although I'm not sure if they sell or make the crown or the conceptual armours.

Re: Full suits of Nazgul armour.
2 cool armor, though I'm not a huge fan of the helm design.

Re: Full suits of Nazgul armour.
6Omfg, and you sold it? XD
Well, I guess it's good, as it means they're actually selling those, I didn't think they were.
How much did you pay for it?

Re: Full suits of Nazgul armour.
7way back then i paid $1350 to have the first one made. after they made mine they claimed they were not going to make anymore, as they where time consuming, difficult and not profitable. however they have made a number 2, as you can see on the kropserkel site. i guess if you pay enough, almost anyone can be talked into making anything.
Re: Full suits of Nazgul armour.
8ow...
Well I'm gonna focus on saving up enough for the witch king suit first.

9I love lord of the rings but not enough to pay $7500. Does that include the robes that they make. I know that the robes alone cost around $500

10This armor is stunning.
These are true craftsmen and their skill is apparent just by looking at this site.
Very nice functional replicas. I'm envious!

11Glad you found them after a little while, Shinsei.
They're such great artisans that right now they have a several-month-long backlog of work to do, but that's just a testament to how good they are
