Asmus Toys Tauriel

[Damien]

I need to see more pics before I decide if I get her

 

[TheWordWizard]

Is she still expected to ship in November from Sideshow? I'm thinking not, since the month is almost at its end, but her page on the website still says November.
This is my first time posting here (and first time ordering from Sideshow), so if the answer to this is obvious, please bear with me. I really can't wait to have this figure in-hand!

Tough to say - she's been in-stock in the WB Hobbit Shop, but I don't think she' s been listed in the "coming soon" bit on the Sideshow Newsletter (someone can correct me if I'm wrong). If I had to guess, I'd say be prepared to wait a bit from SSC.

Seeing the pics on Facebook, I'm a little underwhelmed at the moment but I think some better futzing and more complimentary (and closer to real-world) lighting might make a big difference.

Alright, thanks for the reply! I don't mind waiting a bit, I just hate not knowing!

She is listed as in stock at WB but is really on back order until Dec 16.

Got her in hand already. Overall, I think the most disappointing part is the likeness.

Mine just arrived to some shipping hub in Florida last night so I am guessing I will have mine in hand on Monday or Tuesday.

Aha. I thought they might be tricksy.

pictures please

Goddamn awful.

Just don't buy.
If I can cancel my order, I would. Unfortunately, my supplier doesn't allowed any cancellations. If anyone wants to buy it from me, for $150 (not including shipping), I would gladly sell it to you.

 

[Eothor]

Why is she having a baby face for? That doesnt even look like her, what happend to the prototype face?

 

[batsheva]

Toldja. Just.. save yourself. Don't buy it.

 

[denrep-lilium]

Eye lashes are overdone, if you minimize them and make more accurate she would look much better.

 

[batsheva]

It's the face that's actually the problem. Likeness is gone. And it's all warped here and there. You can't even pull a straight line from the center part of her hair and balance the eyes, nose, lips, chin, in the right way so it would look like, or even close like Evangeline's face. It's zero likeness.

 

[Jrobertson]

I'm glad I have the weta statue.

It does look to be a bit warped. The left lower eyelash doesn't even look like its connected to the lower lid.

 

[batsheva]

Congrats to those who have the WETA statue. MUCH MUCH better than this crap. So far, this is Asmus's worst product in LOTR line.

She looks like a TOY BIZ Figure!

 

[batsheva]

^My Toybiz Arwen figures has better likeness than this Asmus crap.

 

[denrep-lilium]

It is hard to believe that this

and this

is made at the same time by the same company.
