InArt - Ron Weasley 1/6 Collectible Figure

[Hologram AI]

Harry won't be alone for long. Very nice turnaround time!

Will be fun to see it. I was most impressed with his proto out of the trio.

Just hoping I don’t have to do as much work on his hair as I’ve had to do on all my other InArt figures.

Any pics of how you finished Harry’s hair? Having just watched the films again, the Lego hairdo straight out of the box could probably do with a futz…

That may be the one problem. With the quick turn around time on this, I would believe it's because they used the exact same body as Harry. As I would expect, to help bring down RND costs and have higher profit margins compared to Harry.

I luckily had no QC issues on my Harry. With how thin these limbs are, you have to really take your time with each and every move you make. I would suspect that Hermione is going to take a little more time with the silicone legs, and hopefully more tweaks to that headsculpt.

So exited to see this Ron come out. A big part of me still wants to order all 3 JND figures and have two different sets of these.

The first thing i will be doing is blasting those arms with some heat to free up those pegs so i can widen the holes so they slide in easier, did it with harrys replacement body and it works a treat., last thing i need is another 8 weeks waiting for a new body again

Hoping a Ron release means a Sirius and/or Severus announcement. I’m really excited for some adults from the Wizarding World as well. As far as I can remember they garment announced anything since Legolas in October, so it feels like we’re due to find out whatever is next.

Their track record their first 3 years has been a preorder in January, March, May, August, and October. Sometimes two preorders in some of those months.

Has that been the trend so far? Interesting intel! We'll see what January holds, not sure what else is close to be announced but hopefully 2025 will be a big year for InArt.

More or less.

Hermione was announced in June after Ron in May this year. 2024 also had a July announcement: MJ.

Superman was announced in September ‘23. No August announcement in 2023.

2022 was similar to this year where Pennywise was announced in June after Gandalf in May. No January or October announcement in 2022.

Hoping Daenerys is the next PO but I doubt it will be.

Man, I really hope the Sirius rumor is true. Snape, Sirius, and Lupin are my favorites.

Those are the three I'm hoping for as well! I wouldn't say no to a Gambon Dumbledore or McGonagall, but like you, Sirius, Snape and Lupin are the top three I'd like. Knowing two of three could happen next year is exciting, to say the least.

I would love a Sirius on top of what they have shown us with Snape and Dumbledore.

Although I would be surprised, as doing a Sirius would require a whole new license to aquire.

True but apparently it was information direct from an InArt livestream shared in the General Queen Studios/InArt thread that Sirius is almost ready for reveal

Would it though? I wasn't aware that the HP license was that restrictive. I thought the opposite actually, that they had the license for all the films.

For example, the official announcement photos for Inart's LOTR figures all have "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" branding on them. But the Harry Potter trio photos just have "Harry Potter/Wizarding World" on them - no one film specified. It's the same logo as the last Star Ace figures (McGonagall, Diggory, Gringotts Goblin), and they were making characters from across the series.

Just in case any of you aren't following the other InArt threads.

Influencer batch. Actual release about 6 months off?

“Influencer batch” has now been renamed to impatient batch, it releases in china, so HK and the usual resellers buy up stock and then sell it overseas at a premium thats how it works now for the regular joes thats why its already up on TBA too
