With some patience and my own resin, I have done it! First of all, I know nothing about LoR. I just like MiniVerse and sharp objects. But I think these are actually my new favorites. Obviously they have to be good to be getting a review. They took some time to cure but the axes DID cure using the provided resin. It just took about 5 minutes under my UV light. The swords however, ha. Don't even try it. I used my own hard type resin to get these guys to cure, and they still took some convincing to get out of the mold. Thankfully cured really well though. And I even made an extra one to prove that the molds CAN be used ;) But once everything was done, I had a blast sanding these guys down and putting them together! 🤣 All in all, I have to get more of these! I can reuse the molds, have some cool little extras, and have some badass weapons too!

I'm happy with my purchase. It's very easy to make and quite fun. Since many reviews complained about resin, I used UV light to cure it and had no issues.

Me encantó! Aunque no me salieron los que quería :(

Takes a long time to set. The resin is hard to set and takes about 45 minutes to set under the Australian summer sun. My UV lights don’t work unlike for the other MGA resins that just take a couple of minuets to set this takes much longer

I ordered three of the Lord of the Rings Miniverse minis, so had no idea which ones I would get. I ended up with the high elven sword, Sting, and double headed ax. The biggest challenge was mixing the colors. This was most notable with the ax and Sting. Matching both ax heads proved difficult. These cured easily in mid-day sun outside in an hour - rotated halfway through. We also cured them for a few more minutes using a combo 356nm/405nm gel polish light once they were removed from their molds. These need 365nm light. A 405nm light box I use for resin 3d printing did not work at all. The ax resin had burst within the packaging before we opened it, so had limited resin for that model. However, it was enough for two blades. The ax is a noticably different scale than the swords. I suggest running a lighter quickly over the ax before curing to remove bubbles. The swords came with two hits so we could make two models. This was nice for sting to make one blue and the other silver with a hint of blue. I had hoped to do one side silver and the other blue, but this didn't seem like it would work with the included molds. Gently pull the sword molds open from the sides to help remove air bubbles before curing and to remove the swords after curing. Overall the experience was lots of fun. The displays are nice. The models were easy to make for three adults who had never done one of these before. Follow the directions, be careful when filling the molds, and allow plenty of time to cure in the bright sun or with 365nm UV light.
