InArt: The Lord of the Rings - Aragorn 1:6

[Sassafras]

I absolutely hate the base on this figure. I don't trust it. Really hoping cocoboloboy has something for Aragorn (and hopefully Harry Potter) up soon. I get the realism of not having the crotch holder but I would rather see the stand, especially knowing this is just an action figure, and not have it fall over and get damaged.

His feet lock to the metal base because of the boot magnets. Very useful for futzing. Dunno if I will keep him on there permanently. Being a diorama person have lots of bases about. Maybe I'll just sit him down. Never even took the base he comes with out of the box. Or maybe I'll mod that one. I'd rather have a stand than risk a face plant to the sculpt; am not a painter and would have a problem fixing.

There is zero issue with Harry Potter on his base. That figure is so lite and stronger magnets, he's not going anywhere.

Got my sculpted aragorns and when I opened one I was very surprised, he looks amazing and haven’t found any quality issues. However all of that was too good to be true so when I opened second one it has a paint chip on the nose, what’s the solution? I’ll contact Kit but will he provide a replacement? I won’t accept magic pen or oven. Day ruined.

Sorry to see that. Am sure you can contact Kit, tho folks who paint here can probably tell you how to fix, it might be quicker.

Contacted him already, haven’t heard back. Can’t fix this myself never touched my figures, it will be hard to match the skin color and make it seamless at home. Hope I’ll get a replacement. Own over 150 third party figures and none of them have such issue. Idk what InArt is doing but they need to sit back and put mess together.

My shipment from TNS, (1) premium InArt Aragorn figure, has been on a Homeric odyssey courtesy of the US postal system. It arrived on Oct. 5th at the usual local distribution center where it would normally then go directly to my city’s post office the following day. Not what happened. It has since traveled through no less than three different distribution centers in the region. As far as I know this isn’t TNS’s fault, but obviously it’s very frustrating. I just hope when it arrives that the box is in great shape and the figure itself is essentially perfect. I.e., that the hair is the proper length and there’s no issues with the paint job for the head sculpt.

Some purchases today at the local craft store to use with the figure when it does arrive. (Tired of using a blow dryer to heat up hands. The heat tool looks easier to wield. Only cost $15, works great.)

They are p*** poor at sealing in the paint, its not hard to add a little clear coat ffs.

Seems to be more issues arising with this figure now.

paint loss.
hair cutting for better accuracy.
magnets in the base issues.
No Ranger Cloak.
hand peg system needs working.

For a premium figure at a premium price....

The absence of the ranger cloak really should not be included in this list. All the other issues are valid, as they pertain to a drop in quality in relation to the promised product.

I hope you can get a replacement.
For my part it's been a month and I still haven't News for my Aragorn HS

Kit replied and said he noted my issue. So Idk what to expect now. We definitely deserve a replacement. That's what any company would do. Already had a side eye on InArt and if they won't fix this, after Superman is delivered, I'm done with them. I have no money to waste.

 

[satanatos]

They should definitely tighten their QC. Premium figures at a premium price deserve premium QC...

New pose, new clothes for my Aragorn...

Feel like I cust some of the bangs a little to low and it doesn't look natural (very straight boxed cut) went ahead and gave the sculpt a shower under water to remove the product on the hair it's more natural now if I have to I'll use a bit of pomade to work it a bit.
