At the moment the armouries have an exhibition on the top floor dedicated to the weapons and armour from the films, Narnia, Lord of the Rings, Hellboy, etc from the WETA Workshop.
To be fair the exhibition didn’t really have all that much from any of the films other than LOTR, and all that was offered from the Hellboy movie was 1 gun (Hellboy’s Samaritan). Still the craftsmanship of the weapons was undeniably incredible.
A funny fact that I learned was that they made 2 sets of weapons for Frodo. One smaller than the other so that it looked in proportion when they had shots of Wood’s midget double for the distance shots.
I’d recommend a trip down as it’s free and some days they offered talks from the people at WETA about how the incorporated elements into the films.
