Winner of seventeen Academy Awards, The Lord of the Rings was brought to the big screen by New Line Cinema and directed by Peter Jackson. Wētā Workshop was intrinsically involved in the design and physical effects manufacture for all three films.
Faceless beings of fear and dread, the nine Nazgûl, or Ringwraiths, were undead servants of the Dark Lord Sauron, enslaved by the Rings of Power they wore upon their spectral fingers.
Once kings of Men, their identities have been lost, subsumed by their master's inexorable will. When word of the One Ring's return comes to Mordor, Sauron dispatches the Nine with orders to retrieve this most mighty of weapons and slay its bearer.
Borne on dark horses and shrouded in black robes, the Ringwraiths scour the lands of the Shire, in search of a Hobbit by the name of Baggins...
Our authentic prop replicas and collectibles are designed by the very same artists who have worked on the three films, so effectively they come straight from Middle-earth.
Wētā Workshop's legacy of finely crafted miniature figures from Middle-earth continues with this terrifying character. Ringwraith is an Open Edition piece.
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.
Please note: images are of a pre-production prototype. Each sculpture is hand painted and minor variations will occur.
