Long had Gil-galad™ led the Elves, and long had he joined with the hands of Man, to defend these lands from the forces of darkness. After a bloody campaign, beating back Sauron™’s armies to the foot of Mount Doom, Gil-galad, alongside Elendil™, steeled his resolve and strode forth to face the Dark Lord’s wrath. Whilst his foe, The Dark Lord, wielded the One Ring of Power, Gil-galad held might unimaginable; unyielding, he marched on.

Gil-galad™ was the last High King of the Noldorin Elves. Within this moment, in Middle-earth’s darkest time, he, a great king, held both the hopes and the history of his people. Capturing that uncompromising determination and staunch resolve was integral for our team to do this statue justice.

 

Gil-galad wasn’t alone in his final confrontation with the Dark Lord, and neither is he alone as a collectible. Designed in part as a trilogy of companion pieces, Gil-galad stands gallantly alongside Elendil™ to face off with Sauron™, creating an immaculate recreation of Middle-earth history.

 

FEATURES:

  • 1:6 scale;
  • Limited Edition of 737;
  • Depicts Gil-galad as he appears in the Battle of the Last Alliance;
  • Digitally sculpted by Fabio Paiva with reference from the original movie costume;
  • Designed to be displayed with companion pieces Elendil and Sauron, Lord of the Rings.

“Even though Gil-galad™ received a relatively minor amount of screen time, playing such an important role in the history of Middle-earth, he was always a character we dearly wanted to portray. In creating this collectible, we wanted to honour the High Elven King; treating him with the respect he so deserves.”

Jules German – Creative Director of Consumer Products, Wētā Workshop

    When buying this piece I was apprehensive, I always loved the design of the opening Prologue scene, the elven army's Armor and characters of the lord of the rings. Although I had Weta statues, none of which were human like characters with skin tone so I was a bit worried about what the paint would look like. I can honestly say the risk was worth it, I own many different high end pieces in my collection from different properties but this has to be up there, with its design, paint and sculpt work its incredible. congrats to all that worked on the piece.

    This statue is easily my favorite. The colors, design, and Regal poise if Gil-Galad is unmatched. Easily my favorite statue purchase from Weta. This proves that Weta can truly capture what Tolkien put onto paper. Time to start 1st age characters!
