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

[Sassafras]

My FOMO is often balanced by my FOBS (Fear Of Being Screwed).

My FOMO is torpedoed by a negative bank balance. Anyway just want Thorin who keeps being shown but that doesn't mean anything, HT showed off plenty of prototypes that never came into existence. Legolas/Thorin at ~15:10
Have to watch this on YT playback disabled: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zd2xsII5ZaQ

And everything else. I just wanted to look at the figs, didn't pay much attention to the content.

Damn Wor. That's some ****** up hand you got.

 

[RandomHero]

But not only Wor-Gar, but I would get it then as well.

The Asmus Gimli would be 15 years old by then.

How do we get you Gimli now and Wor-Gar Gimli in 14 years?

Open to all suggestions.

You've seen my avatar, yes?

I wish I didn’t feel the need to represent many IPs, but yeah, the eventual ROTS 20th announcements are going to be the end of me on top of 6-7 INART POs this year…

Here's to our wallets, man.

What other InArt POs do you have?

I should’ve added *probable 6-7 POs. As of right now, I just have 2019 Phoenix 2-pack and Paul on order.

But yeah, the ROTS line has me anxiously waiting. I’m reallllly hoping they do Vader… that’s a dream figure man. Some more Jedi, more clones, and I don’t mind if they 2.0 certain characters. Definitely seems like we could be in for a treat with this line.

That is the sacrifice we're all willing to make, just to make sure Wor-Gar receives Gimli when he's 89.

If Wor-Gar isn't craving Gimli in his 90s the way Willie Nelson needs weed, what are we even doing.

If there ever was an anniversary that I could see have a good chance of delivering some bangers, it'd be ROTS. A ROTS Vader would be cool. I personally hope for a 2.0 sculpted Anakin. Hopefully after the ROTS wave I can put my money back to InArt, I feel my interest in HT's products slowly cooling down.

I just NEED a Bespin Han and Hoth Han and Luke,and then I'll be done with OT figures.
It's the EU figures I'm hoping for more of now.
Otherwise,I can get some LOTR along the way.

I think it would be really interesting to see how many disenchanted ex Star Wars fans there are in the InArt threads now collecting LOTR

Put me in that bucket !!

I've been collecting Vintage Toltoys/Kenner Star wars for awhile now.
So ive been chasing some grail items inbetween HT/Asmus.
I recently sold the Inart Premium Aragorn to get some childhood collections that had some amazing items you just can't find 40+ yrs later.
Now that's done,time to get back in on the LOTR.

They said that Frodo and Sam will most likely go up for PO 2026. And completing the Fellowship (Boromir, Gimli, Merry and Pippin) in the next 2-3 years. No definite and current plans for any other characters beyond them.

2026? So maybe we'll have Frodo in hand by early 2028...

I might not have Gimli until 2030...

OMG, this hobby

Honestly, knowing it's gonna be a while and spaced out makes me reconsider getting the Legolas.
I didn't commit as my finances made getting the whole Fellowship unfeasible......
But if they're spread out.....

They were always going to be spread out. Given inArts track record with their production times and their limited resources at the factory and having to make time and resources for other IPs, the Fellowship was always going to be a long haul. So budgeting for them shouldn't be a problem.

Just looking at the SW section of this forum, it seems pretty dead to me. These Ahsoka show figures get released and there are about 3 posts about them. Figures from even 3-4 years ago were getting 100+ pages of posts. I think we will only see that again if they do OT figures like Hoth Han and Luke, Taun taun, Bespin Han etc. reissue farmboy Luke and ANH Leia.

“Flavor of the week” schlock that releases 1.5-2 years after the movie/show is usually going to remain schlock. Why would it be any different? The source material needs to actually be decent.

One – of the many – reasons why there’s always buzz with INART threads is cause they do timeless stuff, icons and new character designs/IPs that will cement themselves into pop culture.

If Hot Toys truly focused on PT and OT stuff and only the best of the best Disney SW, then it could be a different story. Now if INART had the rights to Star Wars/Disney licenses, that would definitely change things and you’d see immensely more online traffic than you do LOTR.
