Asmus Toys 1:6 - Saruman the White

[jal76]

Can't compare with Raymond's custom bearded figure but I think it is a great looking figure, especially with the pedestal and Palantir. A mini-diorama. (need to replace the dead batteries...)

Another one with amazing shelf presence. That entire display is awesome! This was my first Asmus LOTR figure (picked it up a month or so ago) and it made me become immediately addicted to the entire line. I would have been happy with the slim version but that Palantir makes such a difference!

 

[ThomastheTank57]

My first figure as well (slim) and now I'm at 7 total. All within the last 4 months!

Hoping for a newer version

Yes, please. Saruman, The Witch-King Of Angmar, Lurtz, and Sauron are the villains I want the most from the entire trilogy.

I don‘t think we are going to see Sauron in 1/6 scale from Asmus
The height will be around 17 inches tall so a new body and toiling is required from Asmus.
And I don‘t have to mention the price

Asmus has said before that they will make a Sauron. Fingers crossed as he’s on my list too!

If they haven't made Lurtz, seems like Sauron is even more unlikely.

I just need an updated Saruman head sculpt. The original figure is great but to me, there wasn't enough hair strands on the head sculpt so it made it difficult to look good. The molded beard looked fine but a new sculpt would definitely benefit from a rooted beard, as well.

Actually I don’t remember that
I hope you’re right

At least they said they’re working on Lurtz. Sauron is still on the bulletin board.

Yea there was too little hair on the head. You have to futz it properly do the scalp isn’t showing through the strands

Yep. Exactly. And once you do have it looking fairly ok, you better not even breathe on it!

If a new Saruman & a Radagast came along I'd snap them up and pick up the crown Gandalf

 

[Xman1990]

I added more hair to my saruman figure as mine was sporting a comb over.
once I added more hair and coffee stained his robes he looks awesome.

but I’d be very tempted if a crown series was release.

a radagast I think would be an incredible 1/6 figure he’s so quirky and the sculpt and costume and accessories would be very interesting.

I would love to see your Saruman figure with the updates.

Here is when my saruman had a hair transplant.

I actually had a white wig that I stained in coffee and dried and applied to the figure, I thinned the edges of the original rooted hair to blend.

and wet set the hair so it holds close to the head like in the film.
yes it’s a little longer than the film but I think it looks cool.

also coffee stained the gown which actually brings out all the details too.

few tweaks make for a really nice figure, I got the version with the palantir stand too an amazing accessor.

Nice! I will have to try my hand at the "Hair Club for Wizards" mod, for sure.

I would love to see 2.0 of Saruman. Do you know if this was something Asmus is looking into doing in the future?

 

[inyacher]

Saruman seems not in the design schedule before 2022 Q2 as I know.

 

[George13]

Saruman 2.0 2022 ?
