It’s kinda scary/exciting having a really rare one.
I don’t have a single LE piece, so I think I could understand. Just the idea of having one is cool (though, I will never have a LE piece, lol).
Congrats. Be sure to take photos of him when he arrives!!Awesome!!

-J R R TolkienIt’s strange though, the Eastern Dragons don’t ever seem to go as high as the Western ones. I wonder why that is… Although I guess it is a great chance to get a rare/unique dragon under $1000.00.
How much have Olympia’s Sun Dragons sold for so far? Does anyone know?
That’s an interesting question. I love the Oriental dragons, myself. I wonder why they aren’t as popular??
Maybe its because most people grew up looking at pictures of Western dragons, and so that type of dragon is what people think of as a real dragon.
I’m not sure why, but I’m not interested in the Oriental dragons at all though I love the western dragon sculpts.
You’re probably right. I have an interest in dragon myths from all cultures and became attacted to oriental dragons because the myths are usually a lot more postive than those for western dragons. Oriental dragons were often seen as good luck, while western dragons were mostly seen as evil creatures. I love both anyway….

Interesting…I didn’t know that. I’ll have to check out some Oriental dragon myths…
I’m Chinese so I love the Orientals. I’m just looking for my Emerald Sun Dragon to complete the set now.

Do you think they’re not as popular?? I just put the price up to the sculpture itself being smaller…though the coiled mothers sure went for a whole heck of a lot, so maybe I’m wrong on that! I think the orientals are stunning…easily some of my favorite windstone dragons!
"He that breaks a thing to find out what it is has left the path of wisdom."
-J R R TolkienIm guessing the sculpt is just not as popular. The first one went for just over $600, if I remember correctly. I would pay $1000 if I had $1000
I love the orientals. They look so nice on display.I agree, the Orientals really display well!! Sometimes I put some of my Windstones away temporarily to display other things, but I always leave my Orientals out!!
Though I enjoy the benevolent lore that surrounds Eastern dragons, I’m not as attracted to Melody’s orientals because it’s important to me on a personal level for the dragons I collect to have wings, or at least some sort of representation of wings.
