Wonder what house he'll get sorted into.

I've definitely been frustrated with some of Asmus' fumbles, but I'm still onboard. For the simple reason that while they sometimes have baffling QC issues, nobody else is doing a Middle-Earth line with this depth. Is InArt showing a terrific Gandalf? Yes. (Though I'm also really impressed...

Such a great release, top to bottom.

I think I'd like another one for my GtG 1.0, but I'm gonna wait till other folks get their chance before I shove my way back up to the buffet for seconds. :lol Get in there, you guys!

From certain angles, when the eyes black out, the old sculpt always reminds me of the wizard from Krull when he turns evil.

Great shot. Love this figure.

I love how this pic makes it look like he's sitting at the kitchen table. :lol Excellent shots!

Yeah, the years of the Covid shipping clusterfunk aside, Asmus ships pretty quick!

I love the way they pack the head. The little protective fish tank chamber is brilliant. So many figures with great rooted hair get all mushed up once they shove a plastic bag over their heads and jam them into a box. This is such a great (and simple) extra step to make sure your figure still...

Whoa! That is cooler than I thought it would be! This should be the standard!

I'd personally like to see a stand system where, instead of a crotch cradle or waist grabber, there's a rod (possibly flexible, possibly clear) with a magnet on the end that sticks to a magnet in the figure's midsection/back. I'm sure that's something somebody must already be making, but I...

I'm extremely happy with my replacement head! AND I'm getting the InArt figure. You can enjoy both! It's possible! We're living in an age of great Gandalfs! (Gandalves?) Either way, I hope people are enjoying whatever they collect!

This looks great. I actually really enjoy both my Asmus Crown Gandalfs (especially with the new upgraded Grey head), but I will be proud to add this guy to the shelves, too. (And I'm REALLY looking forward to Aragorn. That sculpt is bananas.) Here's a question for you ... Since the early...

That price is making this very hard to ignore. But I'm trying very hard to stay strong ...

Yeah, if you're looking for absolute scientific certainty, the movies can be pretty slippery. The filmmakers used so many different tricks to scale the characters that things are inconsistent to say the least. From shot to shot you might go from a full CG double, to forced perspective, to...

Curious how the magnetic mechanism was intended to work. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of moveable eyes as it's an awful lot of engineering for a feature I tend not to use much. But I love that companies are still trying to crack the code on that feature. Shows they're trying to innovate.

LOVE the new head. That GtW sculpt is a huge upgrade. And it's a great hairing job. I know this is how the figure should have looked upon release (and shouldn't have needed upgrades to the hat and head), but I'm very happy with where my figure is now. I appreciate that Asmus offers...

Makes total sense. Do them in batches of a couple dozen at a time. Probably also works schedule-wise -- doing these short runs might fit in between production runs of other figures,

Same with mine!

Got one! Thanks for the heads up. I always forget they're a day ahead of the US.
