I’m surprised this thread hasn’t been updated since the photos of the incredible painted headsculpt were posted by Dario and KP. Can’t wait for the preorder!

Asmus, if you could stop trying to make me spend money my wife would really appreciate it. Cheers.

This looks great! But I’ve learned from my mistakes and I won’t be preordering from Asmus anymore. I’ll wait till we see a figure in hand before I buy. But this is looking like the figure I’ve been waiting to have on my shelf.

Just received my tracking number for Gimli!

I have a feeling we will see Bilbo as he’s the next figure in production that has been teased.

You guys know there’s an Aragorn thread right...

Holy crap! This is unexpected. Asmus you constantly have me on and off the fence. Thank you for fixing the issue. Much respect.

I was just going to make this point. I appreciate their filling us in on their reasoning but their explanation doesn’t line up. The hair is different as well. The paint is so thin it shows the plastic underneath. The eyes are of a lesser quality than the sam sculpt and less blue as well. I...

Dang. I really wasn’t a fan of the mixed medium hair of Tauriel. But I’ll wait and see the final product before I make a decision. I could be pleasantly surprised.

Yep 👍🏼 I am the same.

Bull crap that they thought it was an improvement. That make no sense. How is giving him the wrong colour eyes an improvement in any way shape or form? I don’t believe that for a second. At least admit your mistake. This is not the head sculpt I paid for and from their response it sounds like I...

I’d definitely rather the delay and get it right then send us a figure they could have improved on only to make us pay for an upgrade later...

As I sit and look at my four hobbits on the shelf surrounded by all the other Asmus middle earth figures I can’t help but feel disappointment. Disappointed, not because they are bad, but because they are good when they could have been great. The side by side comparison of the old and new Frodo...

Wow. Looks like my support for Asmus is diminishing. What a pathetic response. They are basically saying “Our reasoning for cutting corners on quality is to make it more accurate”. Sorry Asmus, you’re losing me here. Here’s hoping Gimli turns out as good as we are all hoping. I wont be...

Maybe I’m just being a big baby but at this stage I don’t even care about Martin Freeman Bilbo. Frodo is known for his flipping big blue eyes. They are freakishly big BLUE eyes. Every time I watch the damn movies I comment on how unnaturally big and blue his damn eyes are! If I line up all the...
