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

[Alatar]

I finally saw a pic and put the hat on mine looks cool. I can’t believe how terrible that asumus hat was on their version. Took these today.

I do like the Asmus replacement hat though! Has anyone tried putting that hat on the InArt figure?

Oh I sold mine moment I knew inart was making him. I’m happy they gave customers a replacement hat. I remember getting a pipe sent that was missing though.

Yeah, both the upgraded hat and head sculpt are great!

Wish they would have made a few more, though, as I never got one. Between that and the never ending wait for my InArt order, my Gandalf luck has been non-existent. I'm really excited for InArt's version, and love all the pics...but damn, I despise this whole method of piddling out what seems to be a few dozen at a time.

Took a few shots today I’m still blown away wow.

Finally got my invoice for Gandalf - at long last!
Cant fricking wait!
He and the 1/6 Sauron will probably arrive around the same time!

Got Gandalf. One of the hands is ******. The left grip hand does not plug into the figure. The other left hands do. It looks like the magnet isn’t in all the way?

 

[JackRusselTs]

Anyone else not really liking the base? I had a moment where the sword wasn’t seated properly and fell through the belt and caused him to wobble on his base. I ended up putting him on a crotch grabber on the asmus display.

I plan to use a standard black oval crotchgrabber stand.

Update. So I soaked it in hot water and took a knife to the hand to remove the magnet, and what I found was a second magnet. And sure enough one of the other hands was missing a magnet.

Hand fits now

I thought this guy was due Q2 2023, that's what my invoice said anyway...

It's so confusing to see that some people are getting him- but I guess, at least, I'm not the only one still waiting? Not a huge fan of how Inart is handling the roll-out. Are they finishing these one at a time one a month ??

I'm still waiting too. Ordered in July 23 from Kit. Not that I'm in a hurry right now, my wallet is still recovering from the last few months.

Received mine... the eyes seem off... a bit crosseyed...i've adjusted them but when i bring them back to center they are not centered... has that come up or has anyone else seen it?
Overall pleased but the eyes are what make or break the sculpt often for me...With this and the TDK Joker on display they easily are the highlight of my 50+ figure collection. I think MCU HT figures look way more toyish because of the color schemes / costumes... Looking forward to Aragon.. and the Batman for which i have high hopes.. everyone is praising the HT one but the shoulder/neck/traps are off for me and no time to mod...

Did you soak the robe? Need to try that

 

[Wor-Gar]

Jesus, as I scrolled down I thought that was a real publicity still.

Yes sir. It shaped nicely once it was wet.

 

[JackRusselTs]

The magnetic base still scares the hell out of me. Also washing the robe helped.
