Amazing sculpt. So lifelike for a mass-produced piece. I really don't see anything wrong with that. I guess I need to stare at it for a very long time.

Made a quick side by side for these two

The hair is too long and the beard too short on the Asmus one.
No doubt the InArt is more realistic but the Asmus is pretty darn good.
the hair is not too long on the one i received, and the beard is much longer as well.

Man, I regret not pre-ordering it so much. Now I'm here waiting for invoices to be sent so I can maybe grab one.
Definitely a good time to be a Gandalf fan.

No contest, at all. InArt's production transition is unbelievable.

Did Inart end up rooting the eyebrows? I could have sworn they were sculpted before.

Black Label is a custom artist on Instagram. It appears he added the hair to the eye brows. Not sure if he did any other modifications.

So I have literally just came out of watching the fellowship in the cinema as it's showing the 3 for anniversary of ROTK, the light on Gandalfs staff is 100% a yellow glow especially when he 1st lights it before watcher attack, the only time it's a cool light is when he does that bubble shield thing against balrog, I'd say to anyone who disagrees to not go by screen captures but actually watch it back, I thought it was a cool light too but was wrong, hope they haven't changed it to that light like in the recent inart video as it may have been changed because of bogus feedback from us
Now we're comparing customized against stock figures? Geesh... The competition is high between the two factions.
I thought so too.
And then even using a smartphone pic...

You are all right. I did it quickly with the last two pictures posted without looking at them more. I found a more futz with Asmus picture and it looks way better after that was from Cellar Toys. Asmus did a great job improving from the first sculpt.

Wow. For me, it's a whole different level.. InArt really changed the world of 1/6 mass production piece! The likeness, the realism.. even the hands are each painted to look like old man's hand.
I keep reading posts by a member here (can't remember the name now), saying that he regretted preordering InArt Gandalf and only kept his preorder because he doesn't want to lose his NRD. Maybe you can find the post in this thread, talk to that member, and take over his preorder?

Is it really impossible to still find a preorder for Gandalf?

As I've mentioned to a few still looking on Facebook or messaging me on Instagram
Maybe some of these people nitpicking and complaining about the minor issues will cancel/transfer their order to those that truly want and will enjoy the piece.
Keep an eye on Onesixthkit for cancelations or non payers, he will usually post them up as in stock when that happens.
