Long had Gil-galad led the Elves, and long had he joined with the hands of Man, to defend these lands from the forces of darkness. After a bloody campaign, beating back Sauron’s armies to the foot of Mount Doom, Gil-galad, alongside Elendil, steeled his resolve and strode forth to face the Dark Lord’s wrath. Whilst his foe, The Dark Lord, wielded the One Ring of Power, Gil-galad held might unimaginable; unyielding, he marched on.

Gil-galad was the last High King of the Noldorin Elves. Within this moment, in Middle-earth’s darkest time, he, a great king, held both the hopes and the history of his people. Capturing that uncompromising determination and staunch resolve was integral for our team to do this statue justice.

“Even though Gil-galad received a relatively minor amount of screen time, playing such an important role in the history of Middle-earth, he was always a character we dearly wanted to portray. In creating this collectible, we wanted to honour the High Elven King; treating him with the respect he so deserves.”
Jules German – Creative Director of Consumer Products, Weta Workshop

Gil-galad wasn’t alone in his final confrontation with the Dark Lord, and neither is he alone as a collectible. Designed in part as a trilogy of companion pieces, Gil-galad stands gallantly alongside Elendil to face off with Sauron, creating an immaculate recreation of Middle-earth history.

* The edition size was set by the number of orders Weta received during the limited pre-order window between June 21 - July 5, 2023.
