InArt - Harry Potter 1/6 Collectible Figure

[DDani]

Ok, but item 26 is that one plastic arm grabber only? I just want to make sure that nothing is missing from the box... I recall that there were pegs on several diorama pieces (unfortunately the figure is not with me right now). Thanks!

 

[HyperDrive]

Harry Potter joins the collection! A premium quality INART piece, no issues whatsoever.

Horrible lighting, but damn, he looks amazing. Will properly futz his hair and make his bangs more fluffy/natural, but for out the box, I think it looks nice.

Admittedly, I’m not a big HP guy, but I still had to have the standalone representation, which is why I skipped Hermione and Ron – I think I’ll be more than fine with Harry on his own. Snape is actually my favorite in the franchise, but do I need him in 1/6? Besides, I plan to pose Harry flying on his broomstick 24/7 in front of the exterior wall dio side and having the other characters just won’t work. Speaking of, I think it was a missed opportunity to not include Neville’s Remembrall that Harry catches mid-flight. I would’ve definitely posed him with it celebrating in triumphant fashion.

For now, I’m leaving him in a simple museum pose. Happy to have The Boy Who Lived.

Harry has arrived. Not too enthusiastic, but we’ll see if that changes once it’s opened.

Alrighty-just unboxed and yea, not too impressed. Sure, it comes with a lot of stuff-some of which looks really good and some of which do not.

That said, InArt QC strikes again with me:

1st: Removed the back panel on the head and the magnets came right out. Glued them back in properly with actual glue that will hold. Not a huge issue, but getting those tiny magnets in correctly and making sure the polarities were correct for each one in such small amount of space was annoying. Definitely takes some of the "fun" away from an unboxing.

2nd: The fabric backing on the big dio piece looks like the person applying it gave up about half way through with some edges not reaching the outer profile leaving a sticky feeling from whatever adhesive they were using and then some edges are over done due to not lining it all up correctly. Given that this dio is one of the main selling points of the premium aside from the rooted hair headsculpt, this should've been given better care/qc.

Packaging wise, none of the ungloved hands were in their proper place. Not a big deal but given I could tell that right off the bat upon opening makes it more annoying they couldn't package it correctly from the outset.

Head: Aside from the above, thankfully no paint marks/chips on the face from what I can see. Hair styling looks fine but definitely not as good as the proto. Needs some work.

Outfit looks nicely tailored but nothing too extraordinary to me. Nothing to complain about though either.

Woodgrain base topper looks just as bad in hand as it does in the videos. No realism to to it at all. Just molded, semi-gloss plastic.

Best part of this set isn't even the figure itself to me-it's the books, followed by the broom. They're incredibly well done. The other accessories are really nice for the most part as well.

Hedwig doesn't look any better than the StarAce Hedwig I've had previously. Slight exaggeration on my part for sure, but it's not like I'm looking at a real miniature owl, so the InArt Hedwig doesn't look any more impressive to me than the Star Ace one. The eyes in particular look really bad with no realism whatsoever. Paintwork on her is average. Her cage is pretty nicely done, though.

Overall, not too happy nor impressed. Maybe I'll feel better once the glue on the headsculpt magnets dry and I get a chance to see it put altogether. But as of right now, I'm not feeling too confident about keeping this nor continuing with any of my current InArt POs (Cavill Superman, Ron & Hermione, The Batman). Aside from Aragorn, I've had some type of QC issue with every single InArt figure I've had which isn't great odds and doesn't make me enthusiastic about future orders no matter how much I may want to see them in hand or get excited about the protos.

Sorry to hear you got a bad product mate - maybe you can return it to who you ordered it with?

I had an issue with Hedwig as well that I mentioned on here. To me, Hedwig was the worst part of this figure, followed by the wood flooring.

It comes down to the eyes on Hedwig. In the proto they look like real eyes, rounded with definition. The final product, they are just printed on decals.

eh, not sure it's worth it to go through to get the dio replaced. Everything else is fine, just not as impressed with the set as others are. Lots of goodies, just not seeing the quality here on the first opening.

You’re cursed, man . IMO, a lot of these things are non-issues. Okay fine, they’re “issues” but Idk, not enough to feel the way you do. But again, MMV, and you have higher expectations than most (especially me lol), which is fine and all, but imo, this is still a mass produced product. It’s not like it’s a super high end limited run product that resides in another tier, IMO.

Idk, but maybe you should call it with this company? Doesn’t seem like they’re your cup of tea. That being said, I’m intrigued by your appreciation and positive tolerance towards JND. Personally, I’d rather this INART Harry than JND Harry with worse outfit/tailoring details and a portrait that looks less like Movie 1 Harry with a tinge of Hispanic flavor to him. Lol.

Lastly, just wanted to say this, but you’re one of the masters at futzing on this board and of course, experienced, so I have a question or two. I know you’re criticizing the hair out the box, and I agree with you that it doesn’t look like the proto, but isn’t it expected that all figures degrade from Proto to Final mass release? In addition, is futzing part of the hobby for you or no? What I mean is, while the hair out the box isn’t ideal, wouldn’t you futz with it to enhance your own copy? And if so, why does the out the box condition really matter to this extent?

I appreciate your knowledge of the hobby, so I hope I don’t come off as anything other than me expressing curiosity and intrigue. Cheers!

 

[Hologram AI]

Yeah ****** luck of the draw with the QC there. I've gotten all of their figures outside of Pennywise and haven't had any QC issues thankfully. I definitely would be hesitant to order another one of their figures if I had consistent problems. Definitely something they need to get a better hold of across the board. Sours what should be a fun experience unboxing these expensive figures. @Gipetto0812 Hope you still get some enjoyment out of the figure! He's a great little figure once you have him posed and displayed. Unless if you're planning on selling them and going the JND route for the trio.

 

[Mike86]

I have to say I don’t like the InArt head canisters. The one for my Harry was so damn tight. I had to really pull on it to get it to open up and when I did so the sculpt dislodged off the peg and fell onto the floor beside me.

Luckily I was on my living room rug so it didn’t go far but I had a brief moment where I freaked out that I broke something (was most concerned about his glasses).

I think I had issues with Gandalf too but that sculpt didn’t come off the peg.

 

[DDani]

Guys, watch out, there is a chain with a peg to close Hedwig's cage. Saw that in a review, and found mine loose in the bottom of the box. Only the ring that should hold it to the cage's pillar was in place - my assumption is that whoever packaged it did not bother to put the chain on the ring... I did it with few minutes of playing... So just watch out and don't lose it since it is really small.

 

[Gipetto0812]

You’re cursed, man .

Heh seems that way

IMO, a lot of these things are non-issues. Okay fine, they’re “issues” but Idk, not enough to feel the way you do. But again, MMV, and you have higher expectations than most (especially me lol), which is fine and all, but imo, this is still a mass produced product. It’s not like it’s a super high end limited run product that resides in another tier, IMO.

The first two points are the only real issues.

The others are just not meeting expectations but aren't really issues. Something as simple as putting the hands in their proper placement is just an OCD annoyance.

For the woodgrain base, I just expect it to look more like real wood. Taking away any comparisons with JND's base looking like real wood, InArt used the real wood on the TDK Joker jail base. Sure, it was just a piece a pressed wood that was laser etched to look like wood planks, it still looks really good on that figure. Even with a slab as thin as what comes with Harry, they could've done the same thing. I used to get my my pieces of bass wood for my architectural models laser etched/cut in school, so I think it should be fairly feasible for them to be able to do it for these figures on a larger production scale.

Idk, but maybe you should call it with this company? Doesn’t seem like they’re your cup of tea. That being said, I’m intrigued by your appreciation and positive tolerance towards JND. Personally, I’d rather this INART Harry than JND Harry with worse outfit/tailoring details and a portrait that looks less like Movie 1 Harry with a tinge of Hispanic flavor to him. Lol.

I'm thinking I might call it on InArt. My girlfriend was with me while unboxing and she pretty much said the same thing that maybe I shouldn't be buying anymore InArt figures I just really like their protos and I want to believe that I will enjoy their figures. I do like what is typically some attention to detail on their end. Just a bunch of little things adding up on my side with the experiences I've had that take away from the overall joy in the company.

When it comes to JND, I take it as I have 2 JND pieces (3 if you split the Reeve dual set into 2) all of which have exceeded my expectations during the unboxings even when I was very weary before receiving them (especially considering their price ). I feel like I've had the opposite experience with InArt figures. Hopes and positive vibes for the most part (not Harry b/c I was nervous at this point) and then being a bit let down when they arrive.
I think the tailoring is quite comparable between both JND and InArt overall, but the white undershirt (particularly the collar) look to be more in scale on the JND than InArt's to my eyes. Portrait wise, I agree the JND doesn't resemble much of movie 1 Harry. I'm not saying I'm dropping the InArt for the JND. It's crossed my mind, but I'm not 100% for JND either. When it comes to bang for your buck, InArt wins if I remember the cost comparisons and I like aspects of both. Not great for the wallet to try to combine both, so might just opt out entirely. Going to wait it out some more and not make any rash decisions.

No ones fault but my own, but I hate how I tend to want bits and pieces from multiple companies rather than being satisfied with one and leaving it at that.

Lastly, just wanted to say this, but you’re one of the masters at futzing on this board and of course, experienced, so I have a question or two. I know you’re criticizing the hair out the box, and I agree with you that it doesn’t look like the proto, but isn’t it expected that all figures degrade from Proto to Final mass release?

I wasn't trying to be negative about the state of the hair out of the box, but considering the tone of my whole review, I definitely see that haha. It's definitely fine out of the box but needs some work like just about any rooted head. I don't really expect it to look like the proto right out of the box. I just think we all hope that we get one that more closely resembles the proto if we can whether it's this Harry or any other mass produced rooted hair figure from InArt, JND or HT. But yes, if I keep it, I'll definitely work on the hair before he gets on the shelf. As you said, it's expected.

It's definitely safe to assume a bit of a downgrade from proto to final, but I do think HT has been making strides to close that gap some with recent release, at least when it comes to the headsculpts. JND seem to improve upon a lot of their statue protos from proto to production (or at least keep up with proto standards) on their statues and the hope is the same happens with their 1/6 figures-we'll see with Joker. Leaving the hair out of it, I think Aragorn has the biggest drop in headsculpt paint from proto to production for InArt's products. Despite my issues with Gandalf, the headsculpt isn't one of those-it's beautiful.

And you definitely didn't come off anything negative, man happy to discuss! That's what we're here for.

Not sure about going the JND route just yet or throw in the towel on 1/6 HP altogether in the hopes that either Prime1 continue with 1/4 statues or that JND go for 1/3 statues. Going to give it a little more time to see if I can enjoy the set a bit more. Not going to immediately sell it off just yet.

I have to say I don’t like the InArt head canisters. The one for my Harry was so damn tight. I had to really pull on it to get it to open up and when I did so the sculpt dislodged off the peg and fell onto the floor beside me.

yea, lots of folks had a heck of time getting the Gandalf cannister open. harry wasn't as difficult for me; but the second time opening, he did come off the post enough to fall face first into the T1000 base of the cannister. Thankfully no damage either.

 

[HyperDrive]

Horrendous poses and lighting, but just wanted to see the current diversity of IPs together. Lots of definitives here.

Never thought I’d have a Harry figure in the collection and it’s a pretty cool feeling. I wish I had more one-offs from other properties.

Awesome pic, I wanted my collection to look almost exactly like this, as in mid 2000s nostralgia IPs (mostly). But have taken my collection in another direction.

 

[Rzeznikk]

Alrighty-just unboxed and yea, not too impressed. Sure, it comes with a lot of stuff-some of which looks really good and some of which do not.

That said, InArt QC strikes again with me:

1st: Removed the back panel on the head and the magnets came right out. Glued them back in properly with actual glue that will hold. Not a huge issue, but getting those tiny magnets in correctly and making sure the polarities were correct for each one in such small amount of space was annoying. Definitely takes some of the "fun" away from an unboxing.

2nd: The fabric backing on the big dio piece looks like the person applying it gave up about half way through with some edges not reaching the outer profile leaving a sticky feeling from whatever adhesive they were using and then some edges are over done due to not lining it all up correctly. Given that this dio is one of the main selling points of the premium aside from the rooted hair headsculpt, this should've been given better care/qc.

Packaging wise, none of the ungloved hands were in their proper place. Not a big deal but given I could tell that right off the bat upon opening makes it more annoying they couldn't package it correctly from the outset.

Head: Aside from the above, thankfully no paint marks/chips on the face from what I can see. Hair styling looks fine but definitely not as good as the proto. Needs some work.

Outfit looks nicely tailored but nothing too extraordinary to me. Nothing to complain about though either.

Woodgrain base topper looks just as bad in hand as it does in the videos. No realism to to it at all. Just molded, semi-gloss plastic.

Best part of this set isn't even the figure itself to me-it's the books, followed by the broom. They're incredibly well done. The other accessories are really nice for the most part as well.

Hedwig doesn't look any better than the StarAce Hedwig I've had previously. Slight exaggeration on my part for sure, but it's not like I'm looking at a real miniature owl, so the InArt Hedwig doesn't look any more impressive to me than the Star Ace one. The eyes in particular look really bad with no realism whatsoever. Paintwork on her is average. Her cage is pretty nicely done, though.

Overall, not too happy nor impressed. Maybe I'll feel better once the glue on the headsculpt magnets dry and I get a chance to see it put altogether. But as of right now, I'm not feeling too confident about keeping this nor continuing with any of my current InArt POs (Cavill Superman, Ron & Hermione, The Batman). Aside from Aragorn, I've had some type of QC issue with every single InArt figure I've had which isn't great odds and doesn't make me enthusiastic about future orders no matter how much I may want to see them in hand or get excited about the protos.

WOW....That is....a bit crazy. Bad luck or yeah...maybe expectations just a little too high. Or maybe a bit of both. Comparing a 1:3 JND statue to a 1:6 figure seems a bit odd to me. I don't compare statues to figures or 1:6 to 1:4 or 1:3. I wouldn't compare my 1:4 Prime 1 Jungle Hunter Predator to any 1:6 HT offering or NECA. Of course the Prime 1 wins hands down.

As for Harry, its a bummer you had issues, because that always deters the enjoyment. Also you may be able to get a replacement for the diorama, as I did with my Pennywise. Doesn't hurt to send an email and hope for the best. I actually didn't bother looking at the wooden piece as I never intended to use it in favor of the stone flooring look instead.

It is pretty crazy how subjective these things are. You see a dud, where as I see Figure of the Year. (Tied with Aragorn for me, though Harry might edge out). I cant imagine someone opening this deluxe set and NOT being impressed, bordering on being blown away. Excellent diorama, massive amount of accessories. I agree the books and broom are the best part of them, wonderful tailoring and excellent likeness. This is the 1:6 Potter figure to own IMO. Obviously blows Star Ace out of the water and from what I see JND version doesnt look like Radcliffe so its a no brainer to me. But some people are hard to impress I guess. Or I guess I'm too easy to please. thank God for that.

I wasn’t comparing as far as scale goes. I agree that a larger format alone will usually be more impressive as far as wow factor. I was more comparing the feeling of being impressed rather than the level, if that makes sense, due to the high praise this set has been getting. I just didn’t get that feeling that everyone else appeared to get when they opened the box.

To be clear, I don’t think this figure is a dud and never said so. Just wasn’t as impressed/blown away as others, that’s all.

I wouldn’t say I’m hard to impress though given that I also collect the ThreeZero GI Joes and am pretty happy with those for the most part

The last bit I’ll say is that I did spend more time with the set over the weekend and appreciate it more this go around. Having the dio all put together did look nice and I didn’t catch the vertical bars on Hedwig’s cage were real metal the first go around.
