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

[RandomHero]

I am one of those who has not ordered yet so it is of interest to me.

I also haven’t ordered. If I can get Legolas for about $425-450, new, I’d be interested. I’ve said a few times I don’t trust their rooting after all the different ways the Aragorns came out. I’m a sculpted guy through and through but even those seemed to have problems with the paint and whatever else.

I think the right leg on my Aragorn is longer than the left leg because he doesn’t seem to stand unless the right leg is bent. Probably why mine took a dive off its base already. That said, it’s why I didn’t want jump on Legolas at over $500.

I do hope it’s a smaller production run on whatever figures moving forward. Smaller runs means hopefully the workers aren’t getting burned out as fast and therefore should be making less mistakes, or mailing it in less.

These are mass produced products lol. They won’t be “perfect”.

Legolas’s hair is also easier to achieve in rooted form, and I bet there’d be less variance. His hair is straight.

Didn't Kit (or somebody here?) say that Legolas was on pace to sell just as many figures as Aragorn? I remember being disappointed seeing it because it just justifies the price hike.

Part of me disappointed just like you, because it justifies the price hike.
The other part of me is happy because if Legolas sales is great, then InArt will make the rest of the fellowship.

But I agree, InArt needs to keep the price in check. Rooted Aragorn and Gandalf price are ok, with all those accessories etc. Legolas should be cheaper.

I preordered because to be honest, he looks amazing. The likeness, etc. Best Legolas in 1/6. I need him to complete the bunch.
I’m happy if I can get him close to the proto, but will definitely be happier if InArt add more essential accessories when it’s finally released.

They really need to add the Mirkwood bow. As is, INART is essentially putting out a Legolas figure that doesn’t even pair accurately with Gandalf the Grey.

Agree.
The Mirkwood bow is a very much expected addition.
For that price we should also get a 1/6 Katy Perry.

With so many reduced Aragorns selling, I'm assuming Legolas will be a smaller edition size more like Gandalf. You think?

Maybe that’s part of the reason for the higher price tag?

I'm not really jazzed at seeing what a future Gimli will cost. I hope Legolas price will be the highest of the bunch.
