PureArts has done it again, releasing an incredibly rendered (and frankly, a bit terrifying) 1:1 scale replica of the Mouth of Sauron from The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. This marks the third in a line of villainous 1:1 scale replicas of The Lord of the Rings antagonists, with the Witch-king of Angmar and Sauron himself having been revealed previously. This collectible statue will release with an Exclusive Edition Size of 150 and a Standard Edition Size of 1500, both of which cost $749.00 USD. The Exclusive Edition comes with an additional goodie — a replica of the Mouth of Sauron’s necklace from the movie, so scoop up that pre-order while Exclusive Edition supplies last!

Featuring some truly stunning detail, right down to the character’s darkened teeth and bleeding lips, this 1:1 scale art mask will both wow and horrify your friends and family when they visit. They already know how big of a Lord of the Rings fan you are, though, so they shouldn’t be too surprised. The mask features beautifully carved Cirth Runes, which in Sindarin, read: “Voice of the Abhorred Dead.” The metalwork looks appropriately worn and jagged, perfectly capturing the menacing appearance of the Mouth of Sauron from the film.
Fans of the original theatrical release of Return of the King might not recognize The Mouth of Sauron, as he was ultimately cut before the movie released to theaters back in 2003. But, obsessive fans like myself will definitely recognize this horrifying visage, both from his role in the original novel and for his iconic appearance in the Return of the King Extended Edition when he met Aragorn, Gandalf, and the armies of men outside the Black Gate during their desperate bid to buy Frodo and Sam more time to destroy the One Ring.
Keen-eyed fans will also recognize the stand on which the mask sits — it’s one of the towers flanking the Black Gate, where the Mouth of Sauron was encountered in the film. The tower stand also showcases incredible detail, from the distinct craggy hills on which it was built all the way up the spiky stone spire to the top, which is itself reminiscent of Sauron’s helmet as seen back in The Fellowship of the Ring. The tower also features subtle yet appropriately dramatic LED lighting on the base to help emphasize the imposing presence of the Mouth of Sauron.
This wicked mask-and-stand display comes on the tail of a long line of beautifully crafted statues from across fandoms, from movie franchises like Star Wars, comic icons like Batman, and all the way into video games like Dark Souls and Resident Evil. Each PureArts collectible is of the highest quality imaginable, announcing to everyone you know that your dedication to your chosen fandom is unparalleled.
