Gentle Giant Ringwraith Exclusive Statue Animaquette Lord Of The Rings Low 2/500

Description

Evil has just gotten a little more style. Based on the Lord of the Rings films, but with a toon-inspired style, this statue of the mighty Ringwraith on his horse inspires terror and fear throughout Middle-Earth. Ringwraiths are creatures of the twilight world. To most they appear as black-robed figures on horseback, but wearing the One Ring Frodo sees them in their true form: wretched husks of their former selves, tall, thin and sapped of mortality, pale twisted masks of the will of Sauron. The exclusive variant Lord of the Rings Ringwraith on Horse Dark Rider Animaquette is depicted from the scene in which Arwen and Frodo are escaping from the Ringwraiths across the water to Rivendell. Differs from original as Ringwraith is riding a black horse, as depicted in the movie, and base features a water base. This incredible sculpture stands 14 inches painted and ready to display. Made of quality materials, no detail was over looked. Cast in polystone, this strictly limited edition collectible comes hand numbered with a matching, hand-numbered certificate of authenticity. This here is ultra low #2/500! The sculpt is currently long sold out at Gentle Giant Collectibles and is getting harder to find everyday. Gentle Giant was so very excited to have teamed up with Action Figure Xpress back in 2008. This is without a doubt one of the coolest Lord of the Rings pieces ever and comes straight out of my favorite film of them all, The Fellowship of the Ring. There is so much level of realism in this statue.
Available in a strict limited edition of only 500 pieces worldwide this magnificent representation of one of the greatest villains to come out of the Lord of the Rings saga, the fabled dark rider of Mordor Ringwraith, is truly spectacular and is an absolute museum quality piece. The sculpt was shipped directly to me, a one owner treasure. Of all the maquettes, animaquette pieces/statues that Gentle Giant has done throughout the years, in my opinion this is one of the best and most accurate. The statue is currently long sold out at Gentle Giant and is getting harder to find everyday. This one comes from a smoke free/pet controlled environment and is straight out of my personal collection. I purchased the collectible back in 2008 from Action Figure Express directly and the piece has been stored in my personal vault ever since. A factory sealed mint and complete version of this gem rarely surfaces on eBay, much less anywhere else out there-especially with such a low edition number. A stunning wonder this super detailed and rare figure/statue is, factory mint, in complete pristine condition, never removed from, in the original shipping box from Gentle Giant and encased in the outer brown shipping container (carton) from Gentle Giant. Be the first to open, cut the seal, set up and display this LOTR legend in all his glory. Every detail of this piece makes it come to life before your very eyes from the expression of the character’s pose to the details that make up the statue’s extremities. This life-like display of passion and unmatched attention to detail will surely make its way to a prized spot in your collection.
