This Uruk-hai Berserker statue by Weta Workshop is part of the Miniature Statue range based on The Lord of the Rings film trilogy. This collectible statue represents an Uruk-hai Berserker from the Battle of Helm's Deep as seen in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Made primarily from polystone with metal secondary components, this non-scale statue measures approximately 24 cm in height, 11 cm in width and 11 cm in depth, with a weight of approximately 0.3 kg. The sculpture includes the Berserker's blade, blood-filled helm, White Hand marking, battle damage, painted textures and creature anatomy details based on original film references and design work.
This collectible depicts an Uruk-hai Berserker, a warrior bred in the pits of Isengard for warfare in The Lord of the Rings. The represented version is linked to the Battle of Helm's Deep in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, where the Berserkers appear as a brutal assault force within Saruman's army. Weta Workshop was intrinsically involved in the design and physical effects manufacture for all three films of The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and this statue reflects that connection through its creature proportions, surface texture and on-screen visual references.
The statue is based on original film references and design work for the on-screen Uruk-hai. The colour application and texture treatment refer to Weta Workshop's practical effects and creature design work, including the appearance of latex appliance layering, dirt and blood under set lighting. The sculpt captures a moment of violent movement, with the Berserker shown as a relentless and unrestrained figure aligned with the forces threatening Middle-earth.
This figure is an Open Edition piece, which means it is not restricted to a specific numbered production quantity. Open Edition status does not guarantee continuous future production. Weta Workshop states that Middle-earth collectibles require hundreds of hours of design, sculpting, model making, moulding and prototype painting, with the same level of care associated with its film work. The digital sculpt was created by Weta Workshop artists Jason Zhang and Daniel Holland.
