    InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

    Gandalf admittedly distracted me for the past couple of weeks, but I'm still just as excited to get this guy in-hand. I know it's gonna take a long while -- especially since I was one of Kit's last batches -- and that's fine. Patience is an unfortunate necessity in this hobby. I'm approaching...

    InArt: The Lord of the Rings - Gandalf 1:6

    Speaking of surgical procedures, I opened up my Gandalf's head to remove the eyes and try to get them re-aligned. Achieved only a minor improvement, though at least both eyes are responsive to the joystick now. (I was getting lazy eye before when I tried to turn his gaze to the side.) The use of...

    InArt: The Lord of the Rings - Gandalf 1:6

    I know wizards are never early... but Gandalf arrived a day ahead of schedule! 5 days total shipping from OSK. That's awesome. 😁 No futzing yet. I'm really happy with the hair, which already looks great without any treatment. The beard folded over onto itself inside the packaging, so it'll...

    Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace - 1/6th scale Darth Maul™ Collectible Figure (25th anniversary)

    I'm just glad I sold my DX16 when I did! Not going to pick this one up because I'm out of the PT game personally, but this is a nice upgrade.

    InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

    I still need to find an Aragorn. 😭 Worst comes to worst, I had success with Kit's last chance Gandalf, so maybe fate will be on my side again...

    InArt: The Lord of the Rings - Gandalf 1:6

    Mine's in transit so TBD, but FWIW I got the shipping notification on the 28th and it's tentatively scheduled for the 4th, so that would be 6 days! I certainly hope it stays on target. It's been a long while since I've been this excited for an arrival.

    Man, I wish I had space for the Bat-Signal. It's such a killer companion piece, and it looks so good with the correct temperature LED.

    InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

    Hell, if it weren't for the sculpted eyebrow, I'm not sure I could tell this apart from a real close-up. The rooted strand in the foreground only heightens the illusion!

    InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

    The razor burn is absolutely incredible. I never imagined we'd get that level of detail in a 1/6 sculpt.

    InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

    I'm okay with whatever they do with Bruce as long as we keep getting more detective work. I loved finally seeing a cinematic Batman who felt like an investigator. It's why I think the flashlight is a nice touch for an accessory.

    InArt: The Lord of the Rings - Gandalf 1:6

    Oooh, I like that Shire base a lot. That could scratch the itch for me until -- hopefully -- the autumn/forest diorama becomes widely available. 🤞🏻 The Batman has SERS, so that's a good sign! Although, apparently the way they did it has issues, too -- namely that the joint where the head and...

    InArt: The Lord of the Rings - Gandalf 1:6

    Yeah, looks like a chip or blemish to my eye, too. Might be worth seeing if your distributor can help.

    InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

    I think the "holding the cowl" thing, particularly for Batman, is very much rooted in the comic tradition. It's a classic panel or illustration choice, even if the visual language of film doesn't translate the same way. (It also helps that the mask is comic book magic which can hold a shape when...

    InArt: 1/6 Superman (Cavill)

    Honestly, give me that same SS headsculpt with rollable eyes, and I'm thrilled. Permanent side-eye is so limiting for display...

    InArt - The Batman 1/6th Figure

    I am unreasonably excited to use the flashlight, tbh. Also, look at that color difference in the first picture! InArt looks so nice because there's a contrast between the black and grey. HT looks too flat, which may be why it didn't wow me in-hand.
