Hellgate: London Collectibles

Flagship Studios present Hellgate: London, a rich and dynamic new video game in which players are cast in the role of the city's valiant protectors. Weta Collectibles has joined with Flagship Studios to create a line of spectacular collectible statues celebrating the drama and grandeur of the world of Hellgate.

When anyone orders their very own Hellgate: London Collectible they automatically go into the draw to win a custom collectible of themselves as a Templar Knight! The collectible is not only hand crafted by the techsmiths at the world-class visual effects company itself, but is also signed by multi-Academy Award? winning Richard Taylor.

As well as receiving the unique collectible, the winner also has their name rendered on an in-game character in the actual game, Hellgate: London, courtesy of Weta Collectibles and Flagship Studios.

Congrats!
It is funny how you resolve yourself to losing those things. I do a lot of trade shows and the drawings are always fixed. You must have made an impression on someone;)

Three are 14 inches high, with The Hunter (church spire dude) being 18 inches high. :shock:

I'd like to keep them, but if I'm ever driving to a drop in the near future and someone makes me an offer, I might take it. :wink:

I usually enter as many of them as possible, but never hold out any hope of winning. :roll: :D

Nice..:) I was thinking of the templar statue but it just worked out too expensive.

They've arrived! :D

The delivery guy got a sack barrow out of his van to carry them.
They're really heavy. :shock: 8)

Here's the boxes with my Jungle Boots for size comparison:

First statue out of its box (the smallest box), with boot for size:

It was in two sections; base and girl, with the lower boot of the girl having a pin to locate it into the base.

Close up on the detail:

Will have some dinner and then get the others out of their boxes, then to suit up in my UKCM gear for the 'official' winner's pic for use on the Weta web site. :D 8)

Here's all four statues assembled:

That's also the pic I've sent to Darren at Weta.

May suit up in the UKCM gear tomorrow/at the weekend and take a better pic.
