Wētā Workshop most well-known work was for the film trilogies The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, for which they produced sets, costumes, armor, weapons, creatures and miniatures. |
There are three large sculptures of trolls outside The Cave. |
The Cave is full of collectibles and memorabilia from The Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies. Do you have $29,000 to spare for this sword? |
Not sure if I want to go to the toilets if this guy is guarding them. |
I'm sure you remember Gollum. |
They have specialists in many fields including sword-making. |
Want a copy of Bilbo Baggin's contract? You can have it for $649. That's New Zealand dollars. |
It is quite long. |

After looking through The Cave, we started our workshop tour. We weren't allowed to take photos through much of it. This guy is demonstrating how to take a sheet of aluminum foil and create a face. |
