Many of the weapons seen in @lotronprime are steeped in lore and held with great reverence. Queen Regent Míriel’s sword is no exception.

Ahead of Anzac Day we’re looking back on our work commemorating the efforts of NZ soldiers. Last year we completed The NZ Liberation Museum – Te Arawhata in Le Quesnoy, France to create an experience retelling the story of these soldiers.

We looked deep into our archives to find a cute bunny for you. Unfortunately our workshop is just way too good at making freaky props for horror films.

Happy Easter from Wētā Workshop, and our horror bunny from The Killian Curse
