I’m glad I’m not nuts! I was looking for this hand as well when posing him with the bow! Odd to include it in the promo if it’s not included. Still loving this figure tho. I also agree on the likeness. Better from certain angles as well.
Thanks guys! Alright one more pose because I was worried about leaving the bow string drawn. Haha! Love this dude. Do you guys think we will get another Gimli release or will I have to find it second hand?
I figured after all of my drama I should at least post the pose I ended up with after messing around with the new figure tonight. Really happy with this figure and diorama. Can’t wait for Gandalf to arrive. Really hope I can add Gimli at some point. He’d look great with Legolas!
YES! I understood what you meant and was immediately able to fix it! AH! I'm so happy! Asmus thank you so much for your help. Sorry for all my noob comments. I appreciate all of the posts and help here. I've been a lurker for a long time. If nothing else I'm glad to of had an excuse to make an...

Thanks for the additional feedback! I heated the join and was able to slip it down into the socket. After letting it cool for a bit it doesn't just fall off. So that's good. I can pose it but it's very loose. If I lift up (not even pulling, just literally lifting the head up) it starts moving up...
Finally got my Legolas today from Sideshow! I've been waiting for so long and was so excited to get this in hand. I'm a new collector and don't have many pieces yet. I got the diorama setup and was blown away! It's huge, weighty and beautiful! I put my Frodo up there and he looked so tiny. Haha...
