Although I haven't ordered any of Asmus' products before, I'm giving this one a shot. Looking forward to a late June release.

I know the description says the expansion pack will only be available from Asmus' site, but what about the slim figure? Will it be available at retailers or direct only?

Check you spam-folder. Their response was automatically dropped in that folder when I asked them about a headsculpt issue from my The Mask figure. They responded the day after I sent them the e-mail. + I don't think their services are up during the weekend.

 

[FlyAndFight]

Not in the spam folder but will keep an eye out for it for the next several days.

I've tried it several times before, including my Legolas pre-order when it first was announced, and no cigar...

Is it actually the same sculpt just with rooted hair or is the sculpt new as well?

That happened to me when I moved about 8 months ago now. Couldn't redirect to my new address. Fortunately their customer service made the correction for the one order that needed to be adjusted.

But I have never been able to get back into my original account. Next thing I order, I will have to make a whole new one I guess. Or just order as 'guest' if that's an option.

I'd like to have an account.

I would like to know that too. Seems to be same sculpt.

Looks like the same sculpt to me. Which is fine. I sound like a broken record, but I still think that original facial likeness is pretty great.

It is the same sculpt,
we all feel it was very good, and want to make a comeback with root hair to justify it

Started my LotR unboxing extravaganza with this guy yesterday. This is my second Asmus fig after the Nazgul, and I have to say I'm really impressed with the quality and array of inclusions. The accessories are fantastic and outfit is really good. The sculpt would've even been fine out of the box if it was shaped more like what we saw in the proto pics, but I guess it somehow got deformed in production and became cone-headish. The upgrade sculpt will be a sizable improvement. Only really quibble I have is the fit of the coat. The arms are a bit baggie and he would've looked better a bit more fitted.

All in all I'm glad I finally pulled the trigger and fully committed to this line! And I did just in the nick of time since Aragorn and the Hobbits are becoming expensive and hard to find.


Can anyone tell me about the numbering and COA's? I thought that this was done with all releases, but my Aragorn isn't numbered and no COA

As you should. The likeness was fine. The hair is what was throwing it off.

Yeah, me too. I like to be able to track my orders, both current and history.

By the way, the new "Slim" version of Aragorn looks to be a post-Lothlorien version. I pre-ordered it along with the extra head sculpt. Had to order as "Guest"...

 

[Brett Banner]

Gotta say, I'm actually really tempted by this, but at the same time I am extremely skeptical I will be happy with it. Haven't felt the slightest urge to pick up an Asmus figure yet, even though I love LotR. But I do really appreciate that they are addressing the issue with the head sculpts, which is always what put me off most.

How quickly do these usually sell out?

I was planning on selling my Asmus Aragorn and sticking with my ACI version, but I just preordered this upgraded head sculpt. Hoping it looks as great in person as it does in the photos

 

[egel]

Ugh, I am just waiting on my local retailers to put this up for order. And if they do, if I should get Legolas too.

 

[nathan.never]

But why is the new hair black?
Aragorn has dark brown hair...

don't worry
its dark brown

Although this new release is a slimmed down version, I'm surprised the quiver, bow & arrows & sleeping mat aren't included? I can understand the alternate head, diorama display stand and build an orc parts being cut out, but not one of his weapons?

Why do you say this? I thought it was the same only less parts and a new head.
