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

[Scout Trooper]

Definitely seems like the brow shape was changed to me. More of a stern look now vs neutral on the proto

That's what I'm thinking too

 

[Spider-Sense]

Looks good to me.

 

[Darth-Flan]

Definitely looks different in these photos. But I need a best 2 out of 3 scenario. Show me 3 good reviewers then I’ll make up my mind.

Well, I'll just put out there that if anyone is disappointed enough in the sculpt, I'm still looking to take someone's preorder! (1-in-a-million shot, but a guy's gotta try, right? )

I likely will not be keeping my premium order with Kit if you want it.

i hope they didnt push the hands all the way into the wrist peg in the video because thats ugly af. hand should be semi covering the wrist peg

It’s likely he was just placing them on to peg to show off the hands without any obstruction and didn’t bother pushing them all the way in.
If not, I expect this design was required to provide wrist articulation when factoring in the duster sleeves and vambraces.

I got a little teary on the last spin of the premium figure. This certainly looks like it will please me. Glad the stubble is darker/ thicker now.
Let’s get those Black photos out asap!

Shocking lighting and even worse resolution, ffs wait for the true light images.

 

[chrisstbh]

What's everyone bitching about now? It looks the same, y'all trippin

Pretty much what everyone has already said.

 

[Hologram AI]

Looks like the prototype sculpt we've been seeing but with much harsher lighting and shadow. Will wait for Black's pictures before fully judging.

 

[BrooklynWolf X]

That's what I'm thinking too

I assure you it’s the same sculpt. Slight tilts of the head and angles of where the camera is pointing can alter how it looks at times.

Don’t forget how many collectors reacted to the very first batch shots of The Batman. They panicked.

Then as more pictures from the 1st class citizens and “i can afford Dubai” influencers came out, the figure looked better and better.

This will be no different.

It does look like the same sculpt, all the details and feature placements are the same.

Every 1/6 figure takes at least some hit to the sharpness of the sculpt during production, this looks like 10% softer than the prototype - compared to Hot Toys which are significantly softer in the final product - yet I don't see people claiming they're "done" with Hot Toys .

We're not gonna get a better Aragorn than this for a long, long time. It looks amazing.

And so it begins…

Agreed!

However The ****** resolution and less than optimal lighting is the culprit for making the sculpt look soft. Every IA sculpt thus far have been just as sharp as the proto. I don’t think it’ll change now.

But as usual, gotta wait for the photos and videos to roll out. I remain optimistic of the sharpness

Even if it did get softened, it’s still an amazing Aragorn!

 

[Akiratang]

Can't wait.

 

[Godfather1408]

Umm..

Did they change it?

I'm wondering this too could just be lighting as we've learned bad lighting etc doesn't help.

 

[Scout Trooper]

I just want it to be as it looked in their last event. And I think that's a fair expectation.

Yeah that’s fair. So do I .

Yo man, this **** ain’t cheap. It better look amazing!

I just think this early video isn’t enough for us to draw any conclusions. We will have a much better idea once the next set of pics rolls out.

 

[chrisstbh]

I watched the video on my PC and it looked great. Although do wish they’d post the videos in 4K.

Yeah, what is baffling me is the video quality. Why even release this in FHD only when 2K and 4K have both been out for quite some time?
