Spotlight on The Weta CaveWeta Workshops make models, props, costumes, creatures, vehicles, weapons, and armour for the local and international film industry. Located on a quiet suburban street in Miramar, the Weta Cave is a one room mini-museum designed to give the public a taste of the work that is produced by the creative people employed at Weta Workshops.

If you love models and miniatures, you’ll enjoy browsing their collection from the films that Weta have helped make. They have full-sized armour and swords, sci-fi ray guns, tiny models of characters from the Weta films, and a life-sized sculpture of an Uruk-Hai from the Lord of the Rings triology.

The staff at the Weta Cave are extremely knowledgeable and can show you around and answer any questions. There’s also a 20 minute DVD presentation that provides a behind the scenes look at the work done by the talented people who work at Weta Worshops. Entry to the Weta Cave is free, so jump on the No 2 Miramar bus and go take a look.
