Bag End environment

zie ik het nou goed? Drijven er ook kano's

Thanks for your interest in Weta's new Bag End environment(s).

As per our last newsletter, there will be 2 versions of the Bag End environment;

One version will be a limited edition, premium edition for dedicated LOTR fans and hard core collectors

and ...

One version will be an open edition, simplified version for fans in general, especially the thousands of tourists who come to visit us in Middle-earth each year. We were delighted to host 100,000 people at the Weta Cave this year, and expect this number to increase once a certain movie project begins.

Both versions will be painted polystone. We'll be explaining the differences in more detail in the next newsletter. And over the next several weeks we'll be publishing many, many pics showing the incredible amount of research and detail which so many people in the Workshop have contributed to this project, which is so dear to our hearts.

We expect Bag End will be ready for shipping by the middle of 2010.

And of course, while all the attention is on Bag End, we will be slipping more LOTR pieces in under the radar

As always, you can keep up to date with Weta's newsletters / website and of course, on this thread on The Shadow and Flame.

Cheers

Tim
