As long as this shows up before I die, I don't mind a little extra waiting.

Yeah I still get 80% off every 3 or 4 weeks, although the less I sell, the less offers they send me. Just after Christmas I sold 95% of my Hot Toys Star Wars collection using it. I think I was offered 70% off once, but didn't have anything to sell at the time. I just miss the old £1 selling...

I'd personally wait for eBay 80% off selling fees and put them up for auction. I know some people hate eBay, but it has by far the widest reach. You can always put a reserve price on the listing so you don't accidentally lose everything for a pittance. Some of those figures are seldom seen on...

The majority who criticised this release aren't being toxic, and especially not on this forum. Very fair criticisms being put forward for what is a £250 doll. I hate that 'toxic' is thrown around so liberally these days whenever people aren't massively positive on something. It's just people...

Yeah I'm not a fan of that neck. Just looks too thick for Raimi Spider-Man.

Is it really that hard for a multi million dollar company to just stick the bloody eyes on straight on one of their ridiculously overpriced figures? Mine ended up OK, but the whole situation with this figure is just an absolute farce. If this Inart Aragorn shows up even 50% as good as the...

So I bought the regular release from Toys Buying Agent (who is fantastic, btw), and it's apparently the newer batch with corrected eye placement. It actually looks decent on the shelf, although I have positioned it facing to the side, because DAMN that stitch on the forehead looks like arse...

I've just purged my Star Wars Hot Toys collection. Sold 16 so far, few more to go. I think I'm just bored of them, to be honest. Already sold off my prequel and Mando figures a year or so ago. I've kept a Luke (one of 9 that I had, ridiculous), a Vader and R2. All I have left are some Lord Of...

I can't really get any more dynamic than this with the pose. It does look better in person than on camera, I just can't seem to capture the pose properly on my phone. Agree that he looks ridiculously cool, though. @lordnastrond, using the Mysterio smoke effects, excellent idea!

Come on fellas, we're all on the same collecting side here. Some people care about the pattern on the trousers, some don't. Surely somebody has some cool pictures of their Gandalf to share so we can move beyond trousergate?

I'm not sure I've seen many claiming it's better than Inart, but it's definitely a welcome step up from what Asmus offered before.

Yeah it sits fine on mine. I've noticed the long looking neck in some pics as well. Maybe they need pushing down a bit more. Could also be the camera settings. Everything looks weird if your phone is set to 'wide'.

Best bet to start with would be to contact Asmus. They've sent you a broken product, so they really should be replacing it for you without any hassle. You could try taking everything off to see if it's just popped out, but you then risk damaging the clothing as well.

The guy isn't trying to convince anyone that they should share his opinion, and he isn't trying to spoil anyone's fun. He's just sharing his view on things. This figure looks absolutely phenomenal, but I also chose to go with the Asmus head upgrade. In fact, I cancelled my pre order for this...

Currently visiting Jabba's palace.

Yeah, I think if they'd done something with the eyebrows, it would have finished it off nicely. Still, it's good enough for me that I'm no longer embarrassed to show his face, and also good enough that I'm content with my previous decision to cancel my Inart Gandalf to save some pennies.

Mine arrived this morning. I must say, it's a massive improvement on the original head. Now I don't have to have him stood in the corner, head bowed and hat lowered in embarrassment! Also came with another new plastic hat and a small Frodo figurine. Forgive the rubbish photo.

Any chance that the improved Gandalf The Grey head based on the Gandalf The White Sculpt is still happening? Or was that just a rumour?

Yeah I was near the end of the payment plan for Gandalf and I lost the deposit, not that I can remember how much the deposit was. Alternative they offered was a full refund in store credit, but I wasn't interested in that at all. I've got to be honest, after all the horror stories, I was...

I cancelled my pre order from them. Thought I could stay firm, but £300+ just isn't worth possibly wasting. After finding out about how they go about acquiring their pre orders, I couldn't stop thinking about the risk. I have both the Asmus Gandalf releases, so I'm not too worried about missing...
