Asmus Toys : Gimli (pre-production discussion)

[Manannin]

Ordered cannot wait for this and only a month! Amazing.

Since today seems to be wish fulfilment day, how about the LOTR Gandalf expansion head or Sauron?

Either way can’t wait for my complete Fellowship!

 

[Cammo]

That's very impressive! I really hope they can deliver this in the production pieces. Like the rooted moustache above the lip seems very hard to do. I'm buying this even if I only have Gandalf and Frodo atm. Time to save up for Legolas too.

 

[Stanlore]

If they can mass produce that, then it would be such a treat.

Gimili I don't even mind if a few hairs are flaring about given his character (usually I'm very picky on that).

 

[Kalkylen]

Wow, this is beyond what I was expecting! Excellent work Asmus!

 

[Thainitty]

Instant order! This looks so incredibly well done, I’m blown away...finally the fellowship will be complete!!!

 

[Timemeddler]

Looks incredible, already preorder, only thing what makes me wonder that he is only 20 cm tall same as the hobbits?

No, he's 26cm (or 10") tall...

I saw it on the shop as well, thx
But then how is it converted to 20 cm, when in reality 1 inch is 2,54 cm so the figure should stand 25,4 cm tall approximately.
How tall is Legolas? As Gimli stands next to him in a few Pictures, it seems to be as he is just at his shoulder height level or below a bit.

Absolutely stunning.

 

[Sixth Scale Man]

Well, that’s some stunning work right there. If I had the shelf space and budget, I’d be looking at the whole Fellowship, but I’ll have to be happy with Frodo, Sam and Gsndalf. Well done Asmus, and congrats to the collectors picking this up. Looking forward to seeing everyone’s collection.

Anyone mention this looks great? Glad to finally have this on the way. So, is Arwen next then?

No-other Asmus sculpt impressed me to-date. I collect statues but I cannot pass on this. HT watch your back.

I think I’m going to cry (manly tears of course). This absolutely amazing. Bravo! Asmus you absolutely nailed this.

same here, to be honest i would be surprised if Gimli wouldnt be sold out at all in a few weeks. Considering the facts that there never was a proper Figure made of him and the fact that this one looks so good that there is basically nothing to complain about it.

 

[FlyAndFight]

Pre-ordered!

Gimli looks fantastic. What an amazing job, Asmus. Well done!

 

[drjedisith]

beautiful! nailed it Asmus!

 

[xequae]

Ugh!! I lost my password and I'm trying to reset it, but I still haven't received an email when I use "Forgotten Password".

Ready to order once I can get my password reset. He looks amazing.

I told myself I'd never PO with Asmus directly again - out of 6 figures, two were problematic. That's pretty bad (though I admit they responded and fixed everything, just they need a better inventory/web system).

BUT.

I must have Gimli. I have a feeling this guy will sell out quickly.

Hmm what do you mean better inventory/web system, what was the issue with 2 of your orders?

PREORDERED!!!! I can’t wait to have an entire 1/6 fellowship from one company. While I hope this line continues for years and there are many characters I still consider needed and not just wanted at least no matter what happens it won’t go down as another failed attempt at Lord of the Rings since we have all 9 (including Gandalf as both the Grey and the White). Well done Asmus!

 

[hoodonit00]

I feel pretty confident that what we receive is going to look pretty much like this. Asmus has been on a good roll lately with the product matching pictures they've shown. I imagine the hair and beard will need futzed but I can't wait. Who is going to be the first person to pose their fellowship like this?
