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

[Shoo]

Let's give him his own thread, shall we?

“Even the very wise can not see all ends.”
We are proud to share with you an early look at the much-anticipated 1/6 Gandalf-the second collectible sixth scale figure from InArt.

Some one touched the photo up for a closer look.

My god... At least a good 1/6 Gandalf! Thanks QS

 

[Johnny Utah]

That looks like Ian in the flesh. Easy purchase.

 

[rjszar]

I really didn't want to start another line, but this makes it nearly impossible not to.

just dropping collector pictures of por.toy's figure. for some reference perhaps? id imagine queens studio's will be far superior than asmus's so it could be on par with this one if not better? im assuming theyre going for the grey instead of the white unless theyre planning on doing a 2 pack again. im expecting rotating eyes?

It says "Fellowship of the Ring", so I take it it'll be the Grey.

I finally got rid of my Asmus one, will likely grab this instead.

I feel like I have been chasing the perfect Gandalf for forever. I was about to have my Asmus one customized. I am totally on board with this one.

If they can follow through with production pieces with this level of accuracy then it's an easy buy for me. My only concern is whether they'll be issuing these with diecast weapons, surely they must be...

I have the Viper Gandalf the White and if the quality level from that is the same as on this, this thing will be a home run.

Hmm, someone posted this on FB. Looks like the reference pic... Or, rather, it seems to be the very same pic we're seeing as a teaser.

So a con job in the picture they shared.

It is a teaser, that does not mean they are conning anyone. Marketing does things like this all of the time.

It’s a con alright.
They clearly say they are proud to share an early look at the figure.

Hardly a con, they're not posting a product listing with actual pictures of Ian Mckellan as Gandalf on set and saying "give us your money it'll definitely look exactly like this".

Hardly a con, they're not posting a product listing with actual pictures of Ian Mckellan as Gandalf on set and saying "give us your money it'll definitely look exactly like this".

But it’s not an early look a the figure. So it’s lies they are telling.

It's definitely dishonest. They literally say on their Facebook page "We are proud to share with you an early look at the much-anticipated 1/6 Gandalf-the second collectible sixth scale figure from InArt."

I think the hairs are too identical compared to the photo for it to be the actual figure...

I guess I just couldn’t care less because even if it was a picture of the figure you wouldn’t be able to see it anyway
