Star Ace Harry Potter - Lord Voldemort

[The Green Goblin]

I just ordered this with flex pay using the $30 coupon. I don't want to risk this selling out before Spooktacular, because I doubt Star Ace would pump out a V2 Voldemort anytime soon. Looking forward to getting this next month!

What is the $30 coupon, if you don't mind me asking? Thanks.

Yup agree.

Yeah, I should probably repost my thoughts out since my first post was in somewhat anger

Now that I finally fixed the body and have him posed he is truly an awe inspiring figure. I am gonna take one more pic of this guy tomorrow in better light but he is great. The flame effect is very easy for me to put on and off now that I shaved some of the rubber off so it fits easier and better. I actually combined my stand parts from the other figures to make a better extension for the special lightning effect. It works really great and adds that much more to the figure. The magnet is still weak, but now that the robe extensions have some support from being wrapped an arm or the stand, looks incredible.

My only wish is that in future releases please make the wand out of better material. The elder wand was durable, but it was Voldy's white wand that was just so cheap.

Overall, I am very happy now that I finally got this figure to work for me and posed how I wanted it.

It's not really cheap, but the best material for the job I think. To be screen accurate it needs to be very thin, I don't think any material would make it strong enough to support the spell effects on it's own. So they went with something that wouldn't break easily.

Maybe the most frustrating figure I will ever own. Sculpts are a pain to take on and off. He has no good hands to hold his wands at all. His wand is cheap as a toothpick as it can't even hold the spell special effects, even with the support, it still sags. The stand does not keep him sturdy at all. It so loose. I tried another stand and got the same result, must be the body. Something I was impressed with from Harry and Ron was the strong body, not with Voldy, just unbalanced any time I lift his arm. The flame effect is a pain to get on and off. The magnets for the sleeve extensions are very weak, even with the support it feels like they will fall off.

Only positives I have taken away from the two plus annoying hours I have had trying to get a good pose out of this guy is that the sculpts are incredible. His robes are great and even with all the problems I have had, he has a real shelf presence. I really wanted to pose him in an action type pose, but I will just have to settle for a generic pose. I am starting to wonder if I got a defect with the body.

Welp, I am gonna go back to trying to pose him, I will post my pics tomorrow.

I think you just might have been unlucky and gotten a defective body. I just got mine and this was the first thing I checked for. Mine stood up just fine without any help.

It was a easy fix, so I am not mad now, was just upset initially when I made that post. Voldy is one my favorite posed figures now, really great.

Hoping there is a diorama/two pack of Harry vs Voldemort final battle figures. Would be great to get those.

I think it's a safe bet there will be a Battle of Hogwarts Harry released to go alongside Voldemort. I doubt that they'd rerelease Voldemort though.

Mine is still in it's box, in a closet, nearly a year after getting it. Great looking figure, I just don't have an older Harry to pose it with.

I just used the medi Harry and gave him the outfit from the end of deathly hollows.

 

[Demondm810]

Picked him up today. 40 off with free shipping and double rewards was too good to pass on.

Hmm, do you think they'll release another version of Voldemort? Seems this is it if we want to recreate the Deathly Hallows scenes once they release Harry from that film. Odd that they haven't even announced a Deathly Hallows Harry after a couple of years.

 

[The Green Goblin]

There's still the Goblet of Fire version of Voldemort, and I guess, suit and tie Voldemort from a brief shot in Order of the Phoenix.

 

[HAL9000.]

I put one of my Voldemorts in a suit.

^ Suited Voldemort FTW!!
