Re: Aragorn PF!!!

I left a note on the door and a check in the mailbox. I checked the web and they did deliver it so I guess my note is enough.

I did say to leave it at either one of my neighbours if they are some or to put it behind a tree.

The tree is small though so that really wouldn't do the trick.

I'm never home to receive them so I always get them left at the front door.
 
Re: Aragorn PF!!!

That's why I left a note and took a guess at what I'd owe them and left a cheque.

I didn't want to be a crying monkey like you.
 
Re: Aragorn PF!!!

So to those who have him in hand I ask - how's the hair? It seems to look kind of too dark and monotone. I know it is sculpted separately and then added on, and in some pics I have seen it almost looks like it sits too high, like it wasn't pushed on all the way. That's really the only thing holding me back from ordering it. I think the resemblance is awesome, the rest of the figure and costume look amazing , and I even dig the new intense look (with Sith eyes lol).

So what say you? Is the hair a drawback, or are the pics over exagerating it?

The hair looks fine to me, it doesn't look like it sits too high on the head. The only part that looks high is the back of his hair, bu that's because it's sculpted to look like it's flowing in the wind I think, just the way it was sculpted to look like it's flowing back and not just sitting there. Honestly if that's the only thing holding you back I say go ahead and get it, cause it looks like it sits fine to my eyes.

Fed ex now just charges the duty fees and taxes automatically to your credit card if that is how you paid it through Sideshow and you just receive the receipt of that in the mail about 2-4 weeks after stating that it has been charged and why.
 
Re: Aragorn PF!!!

Mine is here and ..............













I LOVE it! Honestly this isn't just a case of the latest in-hand piece, though maybe just a bit ;) ; the costuming immediately jumps out to me. The weathering is very much top notch work (which gives me great hope for the Tusken Raider), all the appropriate mud and have been quite aptly applied - even the additional hands are nice and grimy. Beyond that, the likeness is certainly there, and in a major way. The face is perfect for an impending attack, and the stern expression really makes this piece pop - a more fluid pose/statue if you will. The hair looks fine to me, and the front bit of bangs is indeed a flexible material much like the Luke/Yoda PF.


Here are some VERY rushed pics -

This is just the breath of fresh air that the LOTR PF line needs! :clap
 
Re: Aragorn PF!!!

Even though it isn't a continuity match, Aragorn facing the Moria Orc would look fairly actiony when that time comes.

Yes, but Frodo will look great - he is looking up at the Orc coming down, I can't wait!

Re: Aragorn PF!!!

Did you adjust the strap to the upper part of the scabbard LOTRFan?... My scabbard sits much lower than yours.

Some decent pictures coming in. Looks pretty good so far.

No, he is pretty much right out of the box; the leather strap was kinked a bit, but not enough to make it sit too much higher I don't think.

OK then, just wondering...It's really no big deal to me that mine is lower anyway, im not gonna mess with it and take the chance of breaking something..heh..thanks.
