wow.. looking at them side by side, I can appreciate the details on InArt's Gandalf even more (and both of them are in the same price range, till eventually, asmus offered an upgraded crown Gandalf with the new head).
et voilà ...
Not only the superior likeness, but InArt manages to replicate the small curliness shape of the beard as seen on the screen (from pubs?).. And IMHO InArt's Glamdring is more accurate, especially on the metal parts!
Also, the wooden effect on InArt's Gandalf staff is perfect. The right amount of brown with black wash.
This figure is perfection!
