Weta have just released a new Rivendell environment, it looks freakin' sweet but for 400 big ones (thats US$) it will only be for the select few.

It's quite nice, though I'm gonna be a whinger and say that the trees could look a little more realistic.

Very cool, but kinda small (7.9" x 18.1" x 12.2" (H x W x D)) for such a big price tag.

Very nice, but you have to be a hardcore lotr fanatic to pick something like that up, which I'm sure there are plenty around the world, most probably even on this site!

I have their Weathertop environment and love it. When I get around to trying my hand at constructing one for gaming it's going to be a significant reference piece for me. I have also had a very close look at their Moria environment (I really wish I could have gotten that one too but financial reality is sad sometimes) and was astounded how detailed it was for it's scale and how "fun" it was to just look at it and remember the scenes from the film. I'm sure if anyone had the resources to pick this up they would be very happy with it as well. I will say their colors have always looked better and more realistic to me in person than you get from the photos.
