Available through the Weta Workshop online store, Weta Caves, or with participating retailers.THE LAST HOMELY HOUSE, MADE ANEWFifteen years ago, we built a Rivendell environment that found a home with collectors all over the world. It went out of production a long since, but demand never faded. You kept asking, so we decided to bring it back: but better.REBUILT FROM THE GROUND UPThe original molds were long past saving. We tried to create a 3D scan, hoping to carry the old work forward, but the details fell short. Rather than compromise, we started from scratch and set out to create the finest Rivendell we possibly could.What followed was extensive research and patient exploration of modern manufacturing, testing every technique available to us. The result is larger and more faithful than anything we have attempted before. More of the surrounding mountains are here. The landscape and waterways follow the films more closely than ever, while the architectural detailing reaches a level of fidelity we believe is the most exact achievable at this scale.This version also includes the courtyard where the Council of Elrond took place, the ground on which the Fellowship is formed, and the fate of the Ring is decided. This location has never before been physically realised within the wider Rivendell location, and great care was taken to ensure its accurate placement. On screen, the valley was never given one fixed lay
