Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

looks like he's on a super beefcake body, thatll need a change. The HS looks to be an improvement from the first photo but its tough to tell with the small pics. Overall, looks good though, instant buy

I wonder if toy anxiety will part this one out?

Amazing figure. A grail ticked off the list. Bought!

Definitely a fan of the real hair and the metal weapons look fantastic. But if the Exclusive is going to be hard to get I can see alienating a lot of buyers.

Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

I do believe the body is way too buff... or "beefcakey" as said above. Although it does go with the hair. Like a Romance Novel cover.

But it sure is an excellent figure. I might just buy it as well as Asmus' and have a coat-less Aragorn as well as a fully dressed and cloaked Aragorn. Looks like I can make a FOTR as well as a TTT Aragorn.

Loving the amon hen look.

Personally i think i'll throw my lot in with ACI as far as aragorn is concerned; haven't been impressed much by the in hand pics of any of the released asmus figures though i am considering POing their eowyn.

Also to correct my previous post; the site that put up the preorder listed both versions as "hong kong exclusive" and the anduril version simply as "special version". No idea what any of that entails but hopefully we'll learn more from ACI and other sites as they put up their POs.

Do they ship overseas? I want that exclusive!

Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

One thing they don't have is that damn red shirt.




But still....

They do; the site says shipment costs will be sent separately.

Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

Still don't like the real hair, but everything else looks great.

Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

looks really really good!

Willy probably just change out the body. I really don't like those ACI Medium bodies

Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

This is a definite buy. I'll get it from BBTS.

Thanks! Do they seem to be pretty reliable? 8 months is a long time when you do not know much about the store.

Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

I am really impressed! Maybe we can wetten the hair more with some kind of oil...otherwise a must have!

Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

What retailer gets the exclusive? Is there anywhere so far where I can preorder in the US?

Re: ACI Toys: ARAGORN 1/6th Figure

The tailoring and equipment are great, but the headsculpt...

Will need to see better pictures, and even then, I think this will only be salvagable with a repaint. Couse right now his face looks way too doll-like and young.

Still, the outfit looks great and there actually might be a good Viggo likeness hiding beneath that paint and awfull rooted hair. Could become a popular piece, amongst customisers.
