Weta Workshop Opens Pre-Orders for “Sharkû on Warg” Statue from The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
In 2026, Weta Workshop will release a new, relatively compact statue of Sharku—the Orc leader of Isengard’s warg-riders—featured in the film The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.
Weta Workshop staff have announced that pre-orders are now open for the Sharku statue, depicting him astride a warg—a predatory, wolf-like creature from the film.
This collectible, cast from polystone, is currently available for €152.61 (approximately ₽15,000). It measures 15.3 cm tall, 11.5 cm wide and 18.3 cm deep, and weighs 0.718 kg.
Sculptor Luke Hawker—who has been part of Weta Workshop’s Middle-earth efforts from the beginning—carefully rendered every element, from the weathered, torn hides and furs to the intricate textures of the orc prosthetics.
The statue is scheduled for release in the first quarter of 2026 and is not being offered as a limited edition. That said, the manufacturer does not guarantee that this sculpt will be produced continuously in the future.
