Product Description
Wētā Workshop was thrilled to work on the epic trilogy that was The Hobbit™, contributing design, specialty props and specialty costumes.

It takes hundreds of hours to design, sculpt, model make, mold, and paint the prototype for each new Middle-earth piece. Whether it be a prop replica, beautiful environment, or iconic character, we treat our collectibles with the same level of care and attention to detail that we bring to our film work.

For centuries he slumbered. A vast, scaly weight pressing down upon the stolen wealth of Erebor™, breathing the stale air of a kingdom’s tomb. In the darkness, the dragon and his hoard became one. No longer just a guardian of the gold, Smaug became the very embodiment of greed, his hide mirroring the glittering coins he coveted above all else.

Smaug the Golden creates a striking “what if” narrative, imagining the Fire Drake fused with the very treasure he guards.

To achieve this lustrous, treasure-hoarding aesthetic, our artists have employed a specialised metallic foiling technique. This complex application coats the scales and skin in a shimmering layer of gold, simulating the effect of aeons spent crushing dwarven fortunes beneath his might. Yet, amidst this metallic armour, the eyes and maw remain disturbingly organic; a visceral reminder that a living, breathing monster still lurks beneath the gilt.

Limited to an Edition Size of just 900, this piece retains all the intricate texture of the original bust while offering a completely new aesthetic. Designed for versatility, the bust can be displayed standing on a flat surface or mounted on a wall.
