Joker kind of hid it but you make a comparison between the Inart's Joker, Pennywise, and Gandalf in comparison with their competitors and the eyes look terrible. The eyelids scaled to life size would be like half an inch wide.
Individual control is vastly superior in my view. for starters, if the eyes were not properly aligned perfectly at the factory, it allows you to adjust them. Second, it allows for adjustments of perceived focal length in the event you want the figure looking at something close up (like Gandalf looking at the butterfly he's holding) without getting that "distant stare" that people often complain about with static eyes.
That’s a great point and would give a nice options that I hadn’t considered!
I dont think its hidden with jokor. It shows in person but for some reason it shows a lot more for me on the jail version
Fully agreed. This is why I'm an advocate for individually moving eyes, and I always remove the mechanism from any parrelel system.
Great. He confirms they are going down the LOTR line for the main protagonists.
I don't get the love for the seperate moving eyes, I hate them on Hot Toys figures. It's so clunky and time consuming trying to get both eyes to sit right.
Really depends in some aspects they are a bonus especially as the single stick tends to have wonky eyes which is an issue. Certain figures like Pennywise need the separate eyes.
I'd rather separate eyes than take the risk of PERS that arrive wonky from the factory. That's the main issue for me.
Part of that dead eye look is, I feel, because most of these companies are using decals that are just a bit too small. The pupil isn’t entirely visible on too many real eyes unless someone is actually opening them wide.
