I saw that Hugo on FB. I think it's pretty damn good likeness. More so than Red Skull. I always thought that one was too exaggerated.

Yeah Elrond looks really good! I would probably wait on the robed version as this armor is just a little too colorful. I’m in for another Aragorn too

Yeah it's definitely the best Hugo likeness yet. Those Transcender folk should honestly rip off this sculpt instead of the cartoony red skull one for their Agent Smith figure. Just put some easily sculpted hair on it and whammo, don't even need a HT one at that point

I still can't believe those guys named it that with a straight face.

Well the timing on this is impeccable as I just noticed their other Facebook post yesterday.

Wow! If that sculpt comes out that good in real life it will be the best yet

Yeah, waiting to see how it turns out. If they offer it separately, I’ll just grab the head and call it a day.

So I saw Asmus saying they're making Faramir next, and that a Crown Version of Gandalf the White is also in the works.

Crown GtG is going to be it for me, as much as I love GtW, the crown line is too rich for my blood to have more than a couple.

Faramir is a distinct possibilty depending on how he turns out. They're really going all in at this point though.

Gandalf may actually be my last LOTR figure. It depends on how Galadriel turns out. And if they ever make Gollum.

I just want that fucking headsculpt. Watch this be the ONE time that Asmus doesn’t offer it as an upgrade, because of “muh Sideshow joint venture.”

Asmus isn’t offering the Legolas headsculpt by itself. They lost some major points with me on that one. If I’m not collecting Two Towers figures, I shouldn’t have to feel obligated to get the new Legolas, because they finally added rooted hair. Such bullshit.

Anyway, my Gandalf finally came from BBTS. It looks amazing. I don’t think I have anything to complain about, except maybe the hat. I probably won’t use it though, to be honest. And I’m surprised it was the full edition with the special Hobbiton base. I’d thought you only got that with the Asmus store version, but it must be a universal thing for the Crown Series as a whole.

One last thing... to anyone who gets this figure, there may be a loose part in the box somewhere. Either the shipper or the box the merchant sends to you. BBTS had the pipe loose in a packing envelope. I guess they had been accidentally leaving them out of the box and were made aware of it. Could explain the delay of this figure.
