Much happier with this figure after a repaint from my bro and the hands from the Ron figure, sorry about my photo quality, I have a very cheap phone

Even not stellar photos show this is a good piece. A shame it needed all the extra work, but it looks good.

yup it's not on their main account yet. And if anything, I would be willing to bet that this is just for show since InArt also has the license.

Hot Toys: "Don't buy InArt's figures. Just wait an eternity on the hope that we might eventually make some well after you're dead. Remember how we made all those two Fantastic Beasts figures for you?"

Any news that InArt might produce Potter 1/6 scale figures? I'm sure this has been discussed already, I just couldn't find it here.

They’ve been awfully quiet as of late, but they were supposedly working on Sorcerer's Stone Harry and Dumbledore

Depending on price I could see me wanting the Harris and Gambon Dumbledores. But not if they're in the $400+ range (e.g. Gandalf the Gray).

From what I've heard, the Harry will be sculpted hair. I would guess $350 range, similar to sculpted Batman. For Dumbledore, my guess would be rooted hair very similar to Gandalf the Grey and same price range.

Hopefully we get an announcement and prototype for something Harry Potter by end of May. Really looking forward to them.

You're probably correct. And near $500 a figure is where I would respectfully bow out. I have several figures that accumulatively would be worth more, but that's getting to where I could no longer justify a purchase for a single figure. Other people's mileage may vary.

Far out I love these figures, again sorry about the pic quality

I honestly like the Star Ace figures I have too. I just wish I could find a deluxe Bellatrix for a decent price. I thought I got one, but turned out the seller listed it as the 1/6 when it was actually the smaller 1/8. Luckily it was easy to return and get my money back.

Definitely want a bellatrix! But i struggle if the likeness is enough. Inart maybe? Merry Christmas brother!

I’ve seen a repainted one on Instagram that really sold me on it. It would probably be years before we see one from InArt if at all since they’re starting with Sorcerer’s Stone. One can hope though! Would love an InArt Snape and Sirius Black, my two favorites

And Merry Christmas to you as well

I always thought Star Ace did a pretty decent job with Bella…

Does anyone out there have the kuzos Tom riddle diary ? Is the tooth removable?

Quick question regarding Star Ace in general: Are they known for product delays, or are they usually on time? Thanks!

Usually fairly on time in my experience, though I never usually saw folks pining for their Star Ace PO to come through. It’s not like HT where folks are actively checking how close were to or beyond the initial ETA.

Used abit of craft glue on a toothpick to glue down the collars on both outfits

When I first started to dip my toes into collecting I ordered the Rubeus Hagrid Santa outfit from an ebay seller in China. Seller had solid reviews and a good seller with a 99%plus rating.

Well 5 years later, no Santa outfit and it pains me to this day, still claiming warehouse has not received stock....lol.

I learned the hard way not to preorder from ebay. Yes, seems like a no brainer for most, but yeah....hurts not having that suit till this day.

My Harry Potter collection is forever incomplete.

I PO'd a Nendoroid from a seller with perfect ratings from Japan there over two years ago and still don't have it after (initially understandable) delays and an apparent suspension of international Japan Air service, according to the seller despite having had multiple other non-PO items fulfilled from independent Japanese sellers.

Never PO from eBay even 5 years after the fact!
