Star Ace Casual Hermione review

[Michael Crawford]

Star Ace has given us 'casual' Harry and Ron sixth scale figures, based on their costumes from the end of the Sorcerer's Stone. It only makes sense that they also give us Hermione, and she's as fantastic as you'd expect, based on the first release.

Thanks for posting. Always a pleasure to read your reviews. Spot on about the price. Seems there's a Hermione tax with Star Ace.

Great review Michael. I especially love your commentary about Ron at the end. I hope Star Ace reads that and honestly I think they will. I don't know about everybody else, but as I've stated before, I kind of got into this line through your reviews of it and the fact that Sideshow was willing to carry them.

As for Hermione's price, I think it's a combination of the figure being new and prices going up in general and the fact that Ms. Watson's likeness might be slightly more expensive than some of the other actors. She agreed but probably knew the line could only go so far without her character and possibly took advantage of that. Who knows?

Maybe the $10 increase is because KIM did the sculpt, she must fetch top dollar as far as sculptors go.

Let's keep in mind that this is a re-use of the original sculpt - there wouldn't be another cost associated with it, merely manufacturing.
