Summoned from beyond the grave by their master’s will, the Ringwraiths rose to challenge the White Council in the tangled ruins of Dol Guldur. Spectral, formless beings, the nine Wraiths could not be seen by mortal eyes lest they robed themselves to walk among the living. The Elves and Istari of the White Council perceived beyond the limits of mortal sight, and to them the Nazgûl appeared as warriors, clad for battle in black mail and plate.
Seeking nothing less than dominion over all of Middle-earth, the Dark Lord Sauron drew his wicked servants from the greedy and weak-willed men across the land. Gifted with magical Rings of Power, petty kings and would-be sorcerers fell quickly to his enchantment and became wraiths; the rings they so craved becoming shackles, bound for all eternity to their malevolent Lord.
From the lands of Khand in the east came one such Ringwraith, his name and purpose long forgotten, now but an empty vessel; a soulless instrument of Sauron’s will. Rising before the allies in Dol Guldur he appears in pitted silver armour, his helm etched and embossed with serpentine forms, vague hints of the culture he once called his own.
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND
Weta workshop is proud to announce the return of its Helm series. Each 1:4 scale Helm is made from premium polystone and comes in a limited edition size set by you.
Though the Wraiths had previously been portrayed as pale kings in 'Ring vision,' the film's director wanted them to assume new forms, as if spiritually armoured for battle.

It takes 400-500 hours to design, sculpt, model make, mold, and paint the prototype for each new piece. Whether it be a prop replica, beautiful environment or iconic character, we treat our collectibles with the same level of care and attention to detail that we bring to our film work.
