Questions for Asmus

superdoug · Oct 5, 2024

They are launching a new LOTR figure on the 12th. No clue what it will be. We have seen teases in the past on Gil Galad and Thranduil and they have mention updated versions of the hobbits, Halidir and even Uruks so all of those are potentials but it could also be something none of us are expecting.

Dain and/or Thorin in armor? Haldir? Even Aragorn in Gondor armor....sculp upgrades?

Maybe Wormtongue.

2 seperate figures.
Ouch!!
Hoping they make the heads a seperate sale.

Am... am I considering a Gollum...?

ObiGlennKenobi · Oct 6, 2024

I'd assume THIS will be the figure for PO by weeks end...

Are they working on a new Ash figure? Or just a new headsculpt?

I was talking about their next Crown figure, Snake from Escape From New York

ObiGlennKenobi · Oct 6, 2024

I've asked if they could fix the colour of the description for Gollum and Smeagol to white.
It's now changed and legible to read.

Since I am out on InArt...

A Crown Aragorn I can see...their new heads being teased do look good in the pics people are posting here.

I expect them to want money, so Aragorn and Legalos will be 2.0 at some point.

Sam, Frodo are likely again.

They did most of the main cast already. I can see a Sauron and maybe random Orc for army builds maybe.

I’d probably only buy armoured figures from Asmus like Sauron and Uruk-Hai swordsmen.

I'm eyeing this line now that I have been drawn in to LOTR collecting.

Kind of interested to see what they're going to be showing us next week, I was kind of worried about their silence all year!

I am somewhat of an Asmus guy...Have Ace, Mask, 5 or so lOTR...but haven't kept up...

What figures have they teased. Someone mentioned Snake Plissken, GOllum....any others that were teased the past few months?

Thranduil and maybe Gil-Galad.

TBH don't pay much attention to ASMUS other offerings like the "Devil"/zombie stuff.

I purchased their Ash figure and I remember poeple arguing about the sculpt....I thought it was okay...

Hoping for an Army darkness Ash at some point from anyone, why not them?

I actually dig their bases. The Ash Luxury and the Aragorn and Legalos bases were beautiful.

Hoping this week they deliver something that shows they are a great 1/6 scale toy company.

Karst · Oct 6, 2024

Kinda wish they'd just sell the diorama bases directly...

yes,the Legolas one is spectacular and a few of those together to make a wall surrounding the Aragorn one would be awesome.

Honestly - really happy to hear Asmus are still in the game, im rooting for them and hope their LOTR/Hobbit line remains strong.

I'll never root for a company to make bad things...

I know people hate Star Ace, rightfully so, I found their Rocky figures really well done...minus that Rocky 2 disaster.

If star ace can kind of make decent figures, then Asmus definately will.

I honestly expect them to significantly improve their LOTR head sculpts simply due to competition.

I think they will show a New Ash as I read a few pages back, it's been rumoured.

I want to see a Snake, Ash, and LOTR with immaculate heads. I am glad they are still in the 1/6 game. I have heard of a release from them in a while.....so here's hoping.

MarkKing · Oct 7, 2024

Saw this on Instagram

Good price. I have this I think... The head looks nice.

Been so long...

superdoug · Oct 7, 2024

It drops even further with the Carnival discount. It’s really $207 before shipping. Definitely worth it in my opinion. If I had not just shelled out for my InArt Aragorns I would be seriously tempted. The dio base is great.

I find the head sculpt looks really good...helms deep. Pretty sure I purchased and put it away a whole back because I am moving

I forgot how much I love the piece.

But seeing those pics makes me want to take it out and display...
