Hi guys,
check out our Saruman the white sculpt.
not final, so feel free to express your thoughts.

It will be rooted hair.

Re: Asmus Toys : Saruman the white thread

Rooted hair? That should be cool, looks good so far.
 
Re: Asmus Toys : Saruman the white thread

Looking very nice. Hopefully it won't distort like the Gandalf.
 
Re: Asmus Toys : Saruman the white thread

Wow, the sculpt looks superb so far! Part of me would kind of like sculpted hair, but the length of Saruman's hair makes rooted hair make a lot more sense.

actually,
Gandalf was never shrank nor distorted.

It was just never good enough.
We washed out more than dozens head to compare the proportion.
and it was all the same as our prototype.

Anyway, we are already working on a new HS to replace the old one.

The sculpt is fantastic! Really excited for this one.

Am I reading that correctly? You're going to swap out the Gandalf head for a better sculpt?

Yes,
with Gandalf the Grey purchase.
No plan for Gandalf the white 2.0

and please keep your Gandalf the white,
you will need it to get the new head for free.

Great news - and Saruman looks spot on!
 
Re: Asmus Toys : Saruman the white thread

Even though I like my Gandalf the White, it's cool a new head is coming!
 
Re: Asmus Toys : Saruman the white thread

Great likeness! Good news for the Gandalf headsculpt, glad to hear that you always want to improve!
:)
 
Re: Asmus Toys : Saruman the white thread

NOOOOOOOO! Please no rooted hair. NOOOOOO! Do not screw up this sculpt and character! Begging you.
 
Re: Asmus Toys : Saruman the white thread

Sculpt looks great-your best yet.

I get why people don't like rooted hair, but Saruman is the perfect character for it. It's just long, straight and wispy, so it could look great. Looking forward to seeing Saruman. Very nice sculpt.

I agree. And sculpted hair at this length will only limit the poseability of the head.

The challenge will be to get white hair that looks like aged hair rather than white filament.

Saruman is a definite purchase for me regardless.
 
Re: Asmus Toys : Saruman the white thread

Saruman looks pretty spot on to me so far! Also, I love Asmus' devotion to the collectors: they ask for feedback on head sculpts, respond to criticism, and fix their mistakes free of charge. It makes me feel more comfortable letting my money leave my wallet.
