Did you work on the production?

I did not, but I’m a staff member of a famous Tolkien fan site which has been around since 1999 and I know a bunch of people who worked on these films (Weta Workshop folks).

Very cool indeed, would like to see a pic one day!

I will make a mental note when I go home for Christmas to take it out of my cabinet and snap a few pics for you 😊

Not ordered any, but may change my mind when I see them. Priority is the gold which I think will be very popular.

I received an e-mail from The Royal Mint sometime last week and was wondering if anyone else had received the same about some new release coming up concerning a show called Wallace and Gromit? Is this something that is highly anticipated by collectors or just another avenue for the Royal Mint to fleece a few more dollars from an already over saturated market (with these type of coins) and cash strapped collector base?

[Norskgeld]

The latter.😎

[GrahamDiamond]

Most likely be a sell out within hours as this is the first coin featuring Wallace and Gromit Coinster !!!!!!!

[Bluenitsuj]

Hopefully the mintage is around 15,000 rather than 25,000 as per the last few coin releases.

[GrahamDiamond]

Are these on sale Tuesday Coinster's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not think they have released details yet. They do seem to keep changing it. The 2nd Gruffalo was a 9am one. Once i get a notification from Royal Mint I can let you know.

I am at work tonight ( night shift ) so easy for me to order. If 9am I will have to stay awake after I finish my shift at 7am.

Hope the website holds out better than the gruffalo second release. I had to spend way too long in the toilet at work that morning...

Then I ended up cancelling the order anyway

Nah, the website will be slow even if theres only 5 people on. Its the best way to build up the hype 😁

[medgasguy]

I have my alarm set for a little before 1:00 a.m. PST; I wonder if there will be a queue?

Like the design but could class as a colourised coin rather than a silver proof 

[QStack]

Just seen them on the site. Anyone else think they look a bit naff?

Agree - the silver proof looks awful. The other two are much better.
