I'd throw in curiosity at least for me. After reading the Joker threads and hey, there's a new company in town etc.FOMO is a serious thing in this hobby. That’s why I also try to not get caught up in the “hype” of a new cool figure. You have to ask yourself if you’re really happy with it and if it’s a figure you think you “need”.
This won’t be the last Aragorn, the same way we haven’t seen the last of Joker or Gandalf. These companies are gonna churn out the same thing over and over again till the day we die and well beyond it. Buy what will make YOU happy. Everyone’s standards for these figure are different.
Lots of hype. Rooted hair. Stands that use magnets.
And this Aragorn was - at least from pics - good enough to take the plunge, since I missed the ASMUS and ACI versions. And I don't feel like backtracking most of the time, for older figures. My figs have held up pretty well (and kudos to my ASMUS figs on that score) but I'd rather have my figs age under my watch. So I know when it's time to re-glue, or replace something.
