best review yet man. felt the passion. know its a good piece now for sure. I got the dx on order but you might have convinced me not to display the severed head. didn't notice the head dangled unnatural looking.
Hey mate, thank you so much! Always great to hear that people appreciate the review! I’ve been sent images (they’ll be on an upcoming vid!) of the EX and the owner confirmed (& the images clearly showed) that the severed head does hang at an unnatural angle… 👍🏻
A real winner. It's a solid A in my opinion. So close to an A+. I missed the Sideshow release all those years ago and it has always been a regret on mine, this is going to finally check that box. I agree with you, that as the line goes forward, I think that P1 is making improvements to the little details. I look forward to where this line is going in the future. As always, I love your reviews and congrats on adding this to your collection!
A very enjoyable watch as ever! Personally, this is not one for me but it's great to see so many people loving it! As ever with Prime 1...those bloody bases...real Marmite for collectors. I think a simpler rock formation would have been better, he seems a little like he is sliding on mud? I'm with you on the banner though, definitely keep it on! Looking forward to seeing your next unboxing...I saw a Balrog-Cinta shipped to a collector in China today, so hopefully will be with you soon! Cheers man, have a good week ahead!
Hey matey - yeah, I assume you saw Midge’s post? Looks incredible, doesn’t it? Paid mine off a couple weeks back, so I’m hoping it’s going to ship any day now? Yeah… agree with the stance, it’s not quite achievable in ‘real life’, without sliding to your knees? But, the pose itself is awesome, I feel? And now, on the top shelf, I just lurrrv it even more! 😁 Good to hear from as always buddy 👍🏻
Mate my wife challenged me to take a bacardi shot every time you say “Superb” in one of your videos its 8:48 down and I’m already fucked whilst she still going strong. I’m afraid I wont make it till the end. I must say I love the urukhai I’m susprised you didnt go for the ex edition but I still love it. Looking forward to your next unboxinf next week 🤘🏻 Btw I just compared the elven swords accessories that came with this statue to my Sauron and they are the exact same models. Sauron’s are rusted out. Kinds wish they would’ve painted them the saem way like berserker statue but I understand they wanted all the attention focused onthe dark lord. Amazing detail on the beserker urukhai wow
Haha, hey mate that’s superb!!! 😆😜👍🏻 Fair play to your missus mate, she throws down a great challenge!! 😁 Yes matey, I thought they were the exact same swords as on Saurons… it’s okay, as when you think about it, the Elves would’ve most likely used the same weapons anyway?… (even though the 2 settings are set a very long time apart!)… Anyway, great comment there matey, thank you for telling me, really made smile hearing about your challenge!! 😁👍🏻
Hi mate, another great review. I ended up going with the EX-version, so will let you know what I think with the severed head positioning once I set him up 👌
Ahh that’s ace, cheers matey! I’d be really keen to know! As now I have him, the angle on that arm is literally fully vertical, it giving much room at all?.. Good to hear from you matey 👍🏻
Ahh that’s ace, cheers matey! I’d be really keen to know! As now I have him, the angle on that arm is literally fully vertical, it giving much room at all?.. Good to hear from you matey 👍🏻
Hey matey - have to let me know how that severed head hangs?.. be really interested to know. Cheers matey, let me know what you think when he arrives! 👍🏻
Yep, I agree, even though I have the OG version, I do think the P1 version is better. I also agree about the base. I guess P1 thought the were doing right by keeping the baddy bases all the same, but I agree that was the wrong choice. And yes, the base is too cluttered. However, one could argue that it better depicts the chaos and brutality of battle. And finally, I think the armor saying is the Uruk-ha only wore armor in the front and not on their back as they never ran from a battle/fight. Although they did run at Helm's Deep. Thank you so much for the review, it was very enjoyable. I'm looking forward to the Frodo and Gollum one. Hopefully, my one will also have arrived by then.
Hey matey - thank you for the comment, great to hear your insights, as always 👍🏻 The Uruk-hai wore armour on the front, yes (as Lurtz is depicted), but the Berserkers wore none, I assume that’s right?… Cheers buddy 👍🏻
Great collectible, great video! Can you help me: I have pre-ordered the statue and would like to know the dimensions of the base, width & depth Regards
@@hauntofthecollector ok perfect thanks again It would be helpful if Prime1, SideShow, Infinity Studios, etc. would also indicate the dimensions of the base or contact surface instead of just the maximum external dimensions of the collectibles
@@hauntofthecollector I am kicking myself for not placing an order on this. But, I still have time to order it before it sells out. BTW, your room is looking full. Is it becoming challenging to find room?
@@invinoveritas9260 not yet mate… got room for the 1:3 Predator (coming soon!) plus 3 or 4 other pieces…. Then I have room for around 5+ more upstairs 👍🏻
This is the best out of the line so far, i much prefer the DX with the head but either way it's a stunning statue! The only one i am looking forward to next is Frodo/Gollum!
It’s just loaded mate - sometimes it takes a short while for RUclips to load the vid in ‘full quality’? If you go back later, it should be in full 4K sharpness? Cheers matey 👍🏻
@@MWJ86 it’s frustrating mate as sometimes the vids load straight away in 4K, sometimes it takes hours for the quality to ‘appear’ & sometimes it just failed to load the 4K quality?… I’ve no idea as to why?…
Ohhhhh man i can not wait to get mine. It looks great. Good points in your review.
Hey matey - thank you! You’re going to love this one, I’m sure matey! You’ll have to let me know what you think, once he arrives? 👍🏻

Awesome review dude, the Uruk Hai looks amazing - P1 nailed this one. I was hemming and hawing about this, but your review swayed me to pre-order
Hey matey - whoa, congrats on the PO dude! You’re not going to be disappointed that you did, I assure you! 😁👍🏻

Fantastic!! Cheers. Can’t wait to display mine with some poor Rohirrim soldier’s severed head and without his Uruk Helmet
Hey matey - have to let me know how that severed head hangs?.. be really interested to know.
Cheers matey, let me know what you think when he arrives! 👍🏻
Wow, this piece is damn awesome. Really love it. For me a base can't be cluttered enough. 😊 Can't wait for your Frodo review.
Cheers matey! I’m really overjoyed with this fella! I’ve now got really high expectations for the Frodo piece matey! 😁👍🏻
thank you, you convinced me! I hope I can find it somewhere
Ahh mate! You’ll just love this piece! He’s truly awesome!!!! He’s second only to Sauron!!! And at times, I think he’s as good as Sauron!?… 😁👍🏻

Can you help me:

Cheers matey - yes, no problem at all… I’ll get those measurements to you later buddy 👍🏻
A thousand thanks
So I can already look for a suitable pedestal for the presentation
@@dennisb.9560 hey mate it’s approx 18” in diameter… allow approx 8” overhang on one side for the banner 👍🏻
@@hauntofthecollector ok perfect
thanks again
It would be helpful if Prime1, SideShow, Infinity Studios, etc. would also indicate the dimensions of the base or contact surface
instead of just the maximum external dimensions of the collectibles
You got me very excited got this
You got this one coming dude?… 👍🏻
@@hauntofthecollector absolutely - passed on Lurtz but all in on this
@@CollectorsEnabled excellent matey! 👍🏻
just got mine today ! bloody 10/10 ! how is your opinion on it having it for almost a year now?
Still love this piece mate!!! Well in my Top 5 best statues ever!!! Chuffed you’ve got yours matey 👍🏻
I have the sideshow Berserker Uruk-hai & it's great but the Prime 1 is way better. Well done!
Hey matey! Yeah, couple of people have no said that they think the same… which is really interesting? Thank you matey 👍🏻
Awesome statue! This is the only one I did not order in the line. Thanks for the video👍
Hey matey - how come you didn’t go for this one? I assume you have the OG version?…
Good to hear from you matey! 👍🏻
@@hauntofthecollector I am kicking myself for not placing an order on this. But, I still have time to order it before it sells out.
BTW, your room is looking full. Is it becoming challenging to find room?
@@invinoveritas9260 not yet mate… got room for the 1:3 Predator (coming soon!) plus 3 or 4 other pieces…. Then I have room for around 5+ more upstairs 👍🏻
looks sooo good, awesome addition! what do you be playing on that ps5?
Hey matey! I’ll be playing God of War - Ragnarok on the 9th November matey!! 😁👍🏻
@@hauntofthecollector haha nice! I forgot how soon that is coming now!
This is the best out of the line so far, i much prefer the DX with the head but either way it's a stunning statue! The only one i am looking forward to next is Frodo/Gollum!
Hey there matey, cheers for the comment - I’m hoping that the Frodo one arrives in the next few weeks?… 👍🏻
Great review as always Jason👌 but why is the video quality so low?
It’s just loaded mate - sometimes it takes a short while for RUclips to load the vid in ‘full quality’? If you go back later, it should be in full 4K sharpness?
Cheers matey 👍🏻
@@hauntofthecollector Okay will try again later👍
@@MWJ86 it’s frustrating mate as sometimes the vids load straight away in 4K, sometimes it takes hours for the quality to ‘appear’ & sometimes it just failed to load the 4K quality?… I’ve no idea as to why?…
@@hauntofthecollector i didn't even know about this issue as I'm not exactly a content creator myself.
Anyway it's been resolved now👍
@@MWJ86 ahh superb! Yeah some vids (usually over 15mins?) can take a while for the quality to load fully… glad it’s better now matey 👍🏻
oh nice . hope to received my this century lol
Haha, yeah me also matey! You’ve got a few in the mail now! 😁👍🏻
So Better than Lurtz?
Oh yes, definitely! This piece is literally one of the best in the entire line. 👍🏻
