Hi Everyone
Thank you for your interest in our D9 range
I hope you don't mind me dropping in to answer some of your questions.
The first 2 District 9 weapons are selling very well. We expect to be shipping them by the end of Q2 (June). However this is an estimate. You can keep updated on timing by signing up for our free newsletter

The guns will be static. They will come with plain, black wall brackets, which will be hidden by the guns, once they are mounted.
The paint and mold masters are crafted in the Workshop by the same artists who created the originals. They are art directed by Greg Broadmore who was lead conceptual designer on District 9 and is the creator of Dr Grordbort's rayguns. They will be reproduced in China at the same place where we produce many of our collectibles. They will not be shipped until they have passed a quality inspection by a Weta staff member.
For those of you who have pre-ordered from our website, we will not charge your credit card until the weapons are in stock and ready to ship. There are no cancellation fees, but of course we are hoping you will continue with your order.
Once your payment is processed, you receive Weta dollars (one Weta dollar is equivalent to US1). You get 10 Weta dollars for every US$100 spent on your order (excluding shipping costs). You can then use this to purchase other items. If your orders are over US$500 within the last 12 months, you then become a gold member and get 15 Weta dollars for every US$100 spent.
We ship from our 3 warehouses in the US, UK and NZ. We don't carry all our items in all our warehouses, so you can always check the shipping fees in the check out process.
Finally, we'd like to know what District 9 items you would like us to offer. We already have more items coming soon. But if possible, can you you organise a vote on this forum for the weapon / prop you would most like to see next ?
Kind regards
Tim
