Asmus Toys: Arwen

[Bucky Underbelly]

Also, quick question: I haven't watched the movies in a minute ... she should be wearing the Evenstar at this point in the movie, right? She doesn't give it to Aragorn until Rivendell, right?

I have a spare Evenstar necklace in my parts bin. I'll have to dig it out.

Damn, getting weak. Will probably end up ordering her. I at least wanted to wait for a sale price. Oh well. Easy come easy go.

Technically yes, I think, since you see it on her when she first approached Frodo in that shimmery white dress, but you can’t really see it because of the way the dress is cut, if I’m recalling correctly. I just consulted some screen caps and can’t see it. The costume sketch for it doesn’t have it showing either.

EDIT: Just looked at my new statue of the ford scene with Arwen and Frodo on Asfaloth and it isn’t visible on her there either.

Just received Arwen this morning. She really is a great figure and will be even more great with a little futzing and posing. The likeness is very good, even if the eyes could have been a little bigger.

Well I think she may have just jumped from a no to on my radar. Those pics are good.

 

[CrankbaitJon]

Nice pics, these pics actually made her look better than what I see her as before.

Beautiful pics - under consideration even tho I was never wild about Jackson's take on the character/LOTR changes. But IMO lovely fig. That Aragorn is amazing.

If I did get her I'd put the Evenstar on her anyway. So iconic it seems to be expected whether it's movie correct or not.

Which leads I guess to trying to find a 1/6 Evenstar if ASMUS didn't include!

Good pics, Neko. Great to see that she is in scale to Aragorn as well. They size up nicely together.

She always wears it, its just not visible in the outfit used on this figure because of her chest not being exposed.

This is always one of my concerns with these as well - glad to see they nailed it!

Arwen and Eomer have me very excited about this collection growing- they’re both great in my opinion! Looking forward to an updated Gandalf the White and more importantly Galadriel, Elrond, Thoeden and Gollum to say the least!

*also wouldn’t mind an Eowyn in her sheild maiden dress**

 

[CrankbaitJon]

Great display!

 

[TheRiddler32?]

Thanks!

If you mean you haven't received a balance remaining invoice...me either.
Pretty frustrating. I've contacted Rola 3 times, he says he'll pass along the message to accounting, but still nothing. Tempted to re-order and eat the $20 deposit, since it's now "In Stock".

Yep. no invoice received yet. I'll send an email to Asmus and see what's up.

I think she looks pretty good honestly. You can definitely tell who it is even though it’s not 100%. The hair transition seems pretty alright from the pics too, not like the awful two tone one on Tauriel.

I know there’s a lot of comments on how this is a step down from recent releases like Gimli and such - but remember what their females have looked like up to this point. This is a quantum leap forward from Eowyn and Tauriel’s hideous faces, even if it’s not on par with the males.

It’s gone to a must buy for me. Appreciate the pics.

In hand I think the likeness is even better....cant wait for another go at Eowyn and I NEED GALADRIEL!

The in-hand pics look quite nice. I'll know better in a couple of weeks since I still have one flex remaining. That said, I'm probably going to get it completely repainted and rehaired. I agree Galadriel and another Eowyn are needed, as well as Elrond, Faramir, Theoden, Grima, Elrond, Gollum, Lurtz, and Sauron.

I completely agree with you there!

At last someone else who wants a Grima !

I gotta get me some Wormtongue too. Saruman is incomplete without that creep cowering behind him.
