Hey folks, Harry here... I just got the SIDESHOW WETA TOYS catalogue today and DEAR GOD!!! All of the statues and busts and helmets and stuff are pretty darn sweet... BUT... There is one to rule them all... One that I want right now, this very second... more than just about anything I've seen in a damn long time....
LURTZ
Now, for the first time, I get to bring you an Uruk Hai, the way they are meant to be seen... Wanna know a secret? The other Uruk Hai? Well, some of them even look more cool... There's this greyish muddy one,, with a white hand print on his chest and a sword that... Suweet Heyzeus it's nice looking. I've got the other images, but I'm having to scale them down and put tags on em all, but I couldn't not share this baby with you for another spare second... ENJOY.....
In the Program that came today, this is what they had to say about LURTZ...
LURTZ: Bred in the pits of Orthanc by the wizard Saruman, Lurtz was among the first of a new race of orcs to attack the fellowship. Like all Uruk-hai, Lurtz was tall, upright, strong and fearless, living to fight and kill. His mission was to hunt down and seize the hobbits for his master Saruman. 14.5" H (336mm)
