    The eyes and hat issues on this are just too big to ignore, especially considering that it's such an expensive piece.

    If you pause and read the description on the box at 2:15, it’s like it’s been translated from a foreign language on google. I know they’re doing their best, but stuff like this is so crap. It sums up the figure really, 10/10 for vision and effort but it just misses on the execution in places to really be special. 400 quid I don’t think there’s room for little flaws like this

    Road to 26k isn't far away dude😎 Great review, something different. Who doesn't love The Lord of the Rings, right? The Gandalf bit was really funny, enjoyed that Dean, cheers.

    🤣🤣 laughing ah that was funny
    Gandalf voice crossed with Punch and Judy.
    That was some good hobbit weed you smoked pre review. 👍

    To be honest Dean, I'm shocked you're not keeping him!! You clearly had a ball playing with him!
    I can't wait for Asmus to finally ship mine, they aren't currently shipping to the UK thanks to Ms Coronavirus...

    He does not look like Ian McKellen but he looks great as repreentation of character in the books. Really cool but too expensive for me.

    Asmus is just ok. Their past efforts are lax. This is the one that should have been past release, what they charge for it is too high.

    Fun fact that no one cares about, the "YOU SHALL NOT PASS" line was originally a slogan used to express the French resolve to fight the Germans and win at the Battle of Verdun

    It would have been much better if this figure didn't have movable eyes and magnetic hat rather than a simple hollow hat

    @mikeecko 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wow!! First of all that box reminded me of a DX box from Hot Toys with the multi layers. Second that head sculpt is freaking amazing. You can use it as Myers unmasked 🤣🤣

    The figure is an absolute masterpiece and a masterclass in its overall design and quality. The head sculpt is stunning and very lifelike. It looks as if Gandalf was taken straight from the Lord of the Rings movies and then shrunk down to 1/6th scale figure form. This Ian McKellen 100%. There is no doubt about that. The skin tone definitely elevates the lifelike nature of the figure. Sure, it can take a little bit of fiddling in order to get the eyes aligned properly, but it's a small issue in an otherwise phenomenal head sculpt. Gandalf is a great example of a 1/6th scale figure that utilizes rooted hair (doll hair) for both, the head and facial hair to perfection. Though, the only issue is in regards to the wizard fabric hat. It should've been magnetized at the bottom, instead of simply sitting on Gandalf's head. Perhaps, there could've been an opening inside the hat, instead of it having a flat bottom surface. The paint application is exceptional. The stitch work and tailoring for the outfit are top notch. The figure comes with a lot of accessories, which is always appreciated. I love the fact that the Glamdring (sword) is made out of actual metal. It has some nice elvish printing. The Hobbiton diorama display base compliments the overall piece rather nicely and I really like the inclusion of the moss and green leaves. The front placard is much appreciated. By the way, the photos look like HD screenshots. The earlier parts of the video were really funny when you had Gandalf interact with the other figures and statues. It definitely put a smile on my face. With that aside, thanks always Dean for another great video. I greatly appreciate the continued hard work. Keep it up!

    Hello Dean can you please tell me who will you choose? Asmus Gandalf 2.0 or Hot toys 1/4 scale batman begins? Cause I’m in the middle of choosing which one should i go anybody can enlighten me please!

    • @NickMartelli

      the 2.0 version is up for pre-order but what is different about it?

  • @somersfamily

    I preordered my art dean. Used a code and even got 13 bucks off. I'll probably get him before pennywise lol

  • @kerinkellynerdcorner

    Bro, you have made some (dare I say) LEGENDARY video reviews of great 1/6 scale figures through the years for sure. And this review, which I have reviewed countless times, is no exception! It's up there with your Batman, Selena Kyle, Harley Quinn, and Wonder Woman reviews! And based on my obsessed viewership of this video all this time, I finally overcame my reluctance regarding the cost and purchased this incredible piece. 😂😅 So until it arrives this Thursday I will once again obsess over your enjoyment and enthusiasm for this excellent piece by Asmus Toys. So once again, I thank you for ALL your AWESOME reviews for the collecting community. You, sir, are the crown jewel reviewer of our 1/6 scale cherished hobby. Kerin, Nerdcorner USA🇺🇸

    Awsome fig, just needs the hat looked at, but apart from that, it's great.

  • @dammitspock
    @dammitspock 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    A great & funny review. There's been a number of collectors having issues with the eyes. But in this video I can't see it as an issue. Some of your lighting really sets off the figure brilliantly. A couple of the photos actually could pass as a screenshot of Ian McKellen. Really hope Asmus making Saruman and Radagast in the crown series

    • @rkttkr
      @rkttkr 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dean's photos do make the best screen savers. I use his Christoper Reese Superman for one of my a screen savers.

      take out the flap and the magnet in the hat and it'll sit lower

  • @johnfloydman7735
    @johnfloydman7735 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Truly amazing ......🙏 ...... thanks for reviewing this epic figure . This is the way that hot toys should have gone with there DX range instead of producing the same old shite ....

    • @leechefski
      @leechefski 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Agreed. All Hot Toys DX releases should've been unique characters. They started off well, but from DX 08 TO DX 19 we've had another 3 versions of Batman, another 3 Jokers and 2 Terminators, plus 3 on the spin before the latest (another Batman) have all been Darth Maul! Outside of those, the only other character was a second Jack Sparrow!
