Bronze Rocky Statue (click to enlarge)

Schomberg Studio’s have produced a couple of different types of Rocky Statues and they’re all eye catchingly superb.

The image above is the Bronze Rocky Statue.  It stands 20″ high and weighs a whopping 13.15kg (29lbs).  It’s constructed 100% from bronze and is set atop a marble base.  It’s a Limited Edition piece but I have no idea of how many (not listed on the site).

Smaug the Golden is the first sculpture in John Howe’s and Weta’s range of sculptures from Middle-Earth.  The Art of John Howe – Sculptures from Middle-Earth is a series of sculptures from Howe’s representations of Tolkien’s worlds, sculpted by Weta sculptors Daniel Cockersell, Brigitte Wuest and Eden Small under the creative guidance of John Howe and Richard Taylor.

Having adorned the cover of The Hobbit, it is an instantly recognizable image to fans of Lord of the Rings, and with two The Hobbit feature films on the way, this is sure to become a prize collectible given it’s a Limited Edition of only 20 pieces.

Limited Edition Life-Size Bronze Statue of Gollum

I often refer to the collectibles I post here as “works of art” and no more does such a label apply than it does to this life-size statue of Gollum from Lord of the Rings. This is truly a work of art befitting not only a serious Lord of the Rings collection, but even an art gallery.

Bronze Gollum stands 3 ft 6 in; crouching on the rock, he reaches a height of approx 150 cm.  He stands at the exact same dimensions as Gollum in Peter Jackson’s films because this statue is sculptured by the same people who brought his image to the screen.

Now, he’s pure bronze so guess what, not everyone is going to be able to afford him at a price of NZD $23,810.00.
