No bird call cuts the windless air, nor the tail of any fish disturbs the weedy ponds. The Dead Marshes they are called, a stagnant morass, where only the foolish or desperate dare pick a wary way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this dank swamp the dead warriors of long ago lie as they fell: Orcs, Elves and Men. Cold flames flicker over their unnaturally immutable remains and lifeless white eyes beckon travellers to a watery doom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith no other way open, Sam and Frodo must make their way through the marshes with Gollum as their guide. Mount Doom is their goal, and the One Ring their precious charge: a quest demanding secrecy and stealth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hobbits must trust the word and eye of their treacherous advisor, who has been this way before and knows its secret ways. Yet with each step the Ring weighs heavier on Frodo and the eldritch magic of the mire calls out to him, drawing him to the water, where green hands hang ready to pull him under, dragging him down to a cold wet grave. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Edition of 550;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1:6 scale statue;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from high quality polystone;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClay sculpted by Middle-earth veteran Brigitte Wuest, with support from Gary Hunt and Shaun Bolton;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDepicts both the natural and mystical sides of Middle-earth, as seen above and below the water;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluding five characters and three unique materials, within a dynamic environment;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpirits of the dead can be seen beneath the water, tucked within the gnarled roots;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique lighting combined with expert paint application brings the underwater action to life;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLED powered, flickering flames and ambient underwater environment (USB-C cord included).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCREATING THE DEAD MARSHES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs we follow Frodo’s journey with the ring, Sam and Frodo were far from home, far from friends, and far from safety.  Although the young Hobbit had many brushes with death, the Dead Marshes were a visceral and physical manifestation of his decent into despair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCapitalizing on the environment’s mystical nature, and undead spirits haunting the waters below, we wanted to display the two worlds that often overlap in Middle-earth: the magical and the mundane. Above the waters, Sam and Gollum desperately reach out to rescue the sinking Hobbit. Below the waters, wraiths pull Frodo further into the depths. Representing those two contrasting worlds in one scene proved pivotal in creating this collectible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing every tool and technique available, exploring lighting options and paint schemes, experimenting with materials, and pushing the boundaries of how we make collectibles elevated this Masters Collection to a new level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dead Marshes invites you to explore every inch, view from every angle, with every component laid bare, to truly do the scene the justice it deserves.
