Saw the slim version some days ago on my retailers sites, so came in here to have a look.
I own the previous version, which I found at a discounted price a while ago.
I preferred to have the aci version cause of the rooted hair, but was out of stock everywhere so pulled the trigger on asmus.
I knew that the asmus figure was great (except the hairpiece), wanted my 1st figure from the lotr universe, so bought it.
Was looking for someone to mod the asmus hs as to apply rooted hair,
but I didn't have the time to search and find the right person.
When I found out that a new hs with rooted hair was offered, I just went and preordered it,
cause I really want my asmus figure to shine.
What I want to tell in the end is that asmus should have done rooted hair to their 1st figure,
or at least make the hairpiece correct, as to avoid the conehead effect.
Now all of us who bought the 1st figure and want a correct hs, have to either pay someone to mod the hair,
or now to buy the new expansion hs.
It should be free for all previous purchasers of the 1st figure,
now I am not keen in buying any other asmus figure in the future.
The same was done with kp and the new head they put on sale for conan (which in the end didn't happen but for other reasons).
Now kp has lost me as a customer, more because of the words I exchanged with their owner,
but also for not respecting their customers when we supported them and bought their figures.
