That head sculpt is fantastic. It might be the most realistic head sculpt I've ever seen in 1/6 scale. Hopefully, releases like this by InArt push Hot Toys to up their game.

[@JustinsCollection]

So good!

[@IllusionSector]

​@@JustinsCollection I love the non-sculpted hair. This is so perfect!

[@DomKay810]

YOU SHALL NOT PASS!…. on this figure

[@JustinsCollection]

Haha this comment wins today!

[@ForgedHorizons]

I did. But i did order Aragorn. Idk why. Im not a big lotr fan. Like it. Think theyre great movies

[@randomthoughts786]

Absolutely amazing. I hope they do more figures and get more licenses to characters,, INart in knocking it out of the park everytime they release something. Really appreciate the reviews Justin. Awesome as usual

[@JustinsCollection]

So freaking real!

[@StkrGD]

INART is just another level, so awesome to see their figures, especially in your channel, you do a pretty good job Justin!

[@JustinsCollection]

Their own level!

[@deadscene1]

Another level price too

[@Brandeena233]

That 1/6 scale Book of Mazarbul blows my mind. What a figure. Thanks for showing it off.

[@JustinsCollection]

Dude so good!

[@halfvader8015]

Amazing, can't wait to get mine. The chrome under the head is I think a sly nod to the incredible Kazu Tsuji, one of the best sculptor/makeup fx artists in Hollywood and previous right hand man to Rick Baker. Kazu won an oscar for Darkest Hour. He has a fine art series of larger than life busts, usually perched on chrome bases.

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh awesome!

[@brianz7917]

Incredible figure...that Book, the face, hair, insane detail.

[@JustinsCollection]

Incredible!

[@lukeryan1600]

Fantastic review Justin I am loving the presentation that inart are doing for these figures in the box. Everything is next level so far. Can’t wait to see the inart figures in your collection.

[@JustinsCollection]

Next level for sure!

[@davidlewis4001]

Truly an unbelievable head sculpt!

[@JustinsCollection]

Unreal!

[@thomasjcollectibles]

This was an amazing review. I know your not a Lord of the Rings fan, but your enthusiasm for the figure came across hugely. InArt is absolutely fantastic. I can't wait to get my Gandalf and see what they have coming next.

[@JustinsCollection]

Thank you! I watched the first movie before filming actually!

[@ZachTechnicolour]

One thing that will always trip me out with these InArt reviews is when you move the eyes. It always catches me off guard how extra real it looks when they move. Great Review Justin! Hope InArt gets all the licenses they want.

[@JustinsCollection]

Literally!

[@telephantasm4070]

Absolutely beautiful. Even the packaging, the quality is amazing.

[@JustinsCollection]

So good!

[@mucknstrunz]

Received him yesterday. He is the best 1/6 figure ever. Period.

[@JustinsCollection]

Nice!

[@BlackringIII]

Gandalf carrying his own hands in a bag 💀 And the 1/6th scale book, that's so awesome!

[@JustinsCollection]

Lol

[@StellarVideoCalgary]

as in "Hand"bag?? 😁😁😁

[@RIJIT]

I’m gonna be honest… I got into HT because I wanted the absolute closest life like representation of the character in figure form. IA is now that for me and have gotten me SO EXCITED about collecting again. Hopefully HT rooted Artisan editions will be great products and I’ll get the 1s from them that IA don’t have the license for. These are exciting times for collectors. Great review Justin

[@JustinsCollection]

They have surpassed hot toys for me too!

[@GameTavern2224]

Just watch those movies with my buds. Fell in love with it

[@JustinsCollection]

Sick!

[@pieterdennison9800]

Jeez that is some high end product unwrapping. This was an amazing video to watch!

[@JustinsCollection]

For real!

[@managuelodjoshuaimmanuel1096]

THE closest likeness of a portrait I've ever seen on a 1/6th scale figure! It's wild to think that we've come a long way in terms of how life like we get these figures. Though it won't be for another year, I hope to hear your thoughts on the upcoming Anakin figures by Hot Toys, either the Attack of the Clones version or the new Artisan Edition one.

[@JustinsCollection]

For real it’s the most impressive sculpt I’ve ever seen

[@davidslaughter1149]

Great review! I am looking forward to getting mine and Aragorn also. A question: Would the stance you used in the light box be okay for the magnetic base, or would it be too wide? Thanks!

[@JustinsCollection]

Thank you! I think it should be ok!

[@jonoeschger1552]

INART is clearly on a roll.

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed!

[@simpchimp6443]

Amazing!!! Would love to see more Lotr content!

[@JustinsCollection]

More to come!

[@BXDRAGONX1]

First thank you for all your reviews! I look forward to them. You show every detail and accessories. And your honest opinion is what I like to hear. Sometimes your review gives me that final push to get or pass on a figure if I still have the opportunity to find it. As for this Inart Gandalf, oh I pre-ordered when it was announced! I can’t wait to get him!! I Love The Lord of the Ring Trilogy. I’m a bit concerned with Inart. I love that their figures so far are high quality and I don’t mind the wait but I think they are spending extra income on the box!! I want my figure protected but I don’t need the budget to go in a box that will be put in storage. Yes we need the head sculpt in that protective container but I don’t need velvety material inside tray lol.. that’s just me maybe. I rather have a second head sculpt, with real hair or sculpted hair. But if Inart does goes all in on The Lord of Ring I’m going to go bankrupt!!! I hope o can collect them all. I have main characters in Asmus already.

[@JustinsCollection]

My pleasure! I try my best!

[@TheNegotiatorr]

Great video Justin cannot wait to get mine but I got second batch. Do you think Inart will be able to keep up the quality throughout the different batches?

[@JustinsCollection]

Thank you! Yes they will

[@corietherrien8818]

He looks so cool love the review!

[@JustinsCollection]

He does!

[@coltoncyr2283]

This is glorious!! I dont own any HT Figures, but i would love to get this as a collectable, Gandalf is the GOAT! Its been a long time since i read the books, but im pretty sure Gandalf is a wizard of fireworks and such!! Thats why his cart was full of them. Its perfect to include them. Thats what he is!

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh this one is not Hot Toys its made by INART

[@coltoncyr2283]

These Asmus figures from lord of the rings are perfection !! The face molds are immaculate and so realistic , love my Legolas he’s perfect ♥️

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh this one is from a company called INART not Asmus

[@toddattwellsconsciouspirat6474]

This is absolutely beautiful ❤ definitely display with the hat, it completes the look.

[@JustinsCollection]

Thank you! Will do!

[@Cookiepuss2289]

Amazing review. Just got my Gandalf in and I was wondering what you use to style inart rooted hair?

[@JustinsCollection]

Nothing really, just my fingers mostly

[@jso0192]

Great review Justin, I just ordered a figure from Pop Collectibles with your discount code with a payment plan, do you know if they send the figures before it has been payed? That was my first figure so I'm not sure

[@JustinsCollection]

Thank you! They would ship when you've paid for it I assume.

[@adrianunderwood8642]

Outstanding figure, not a line I am going down, but very nice! Great review as always!

[@JustinsCollection]

Fair!

[@anthonycafferata6990]

Damnnn this looks incredible! Past reviews of this figure made it look pretty meh and kinda like a waste of money. But I absolutely can see the craftsmanship Inart put into the beard and hair for sure :) Super hype to see more of ur reviews Justin!

[@JustinsCollection]

Dude he turned out so good! Glad I could show him off right!

Wonderful figure, so glad I preordered when it was first announced, even though I have the Asmus version. Hoping it won't be too many months until I receive him!

[@JustinsCollection]

Awesome!

[@ljkelty1766]

Wow! That's beautiful! Can't wait to get mine. He'll definitely be in my top figures for the year 1. Gandalf 2. Batman 66 Joker 3. Cad Bane

[@JustinsCollection]

So good!

[@Sir_Stalker]

Hey Justin, have you considered getting the upgraded Headsculpt for the Asmus Crown Gandalf? Would be cool to see a comparison

[@JustinsCollection]

Nah just sticking with INART

[@skyloren2187]

Magnetic base is a nice way to keep the figure in pose and not showing a big crouch grabber nor a flixible waist grabber, yet I don't know how well it holds the figure even if the whole base is magnetic

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed!

[@ReviewsWithRich]

Wow! Wish I had preordered him now!

[@JustinsCollection]

Dang!

[@ReviewsWithRich]

@@JustinsCollection I know right! Hope they’ll be a few on onesixthkit

[@Linda-hf7vr]

This figure is so tempting. The LOTR series is the only one I'd consider tempting of all of the Inart figures announced. He is so very very tempting, I wish I had the room.

[@JustinsCollection]

So worth it though!

[@yangpakimchi5699]

inart is CRAZY, i absolutely cannot wait for Superman and I hope they do Wonder Woman as well! Those two are instant pre-orders.

Great review,thanks.

My pleasure!

[@KryptonianClone7828]

It sounded like Inart has outdone themselves with the Gandalf the Grey Figure.That Figure really does looked exactly like the Character from the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2002) movie. His Facesculpting, long Hair, and long Beard looked realistically Wonderful. And his Fabric Outfit & Hat looked Totally Cool as well. Not to mention it came with 8 set of Hands, Accessories included, and a very Awesome Base Stand. Very Entertaining and Informative as usual. Thanks Justin once again for sharing.

[@JustinsCollection]

They did for sure!

Perfection!

[@MBDyson829]

Thanks for the review and comparison. I am happy to stick with my Asmus. Inrt looks great, but I like what I have and the great display he came with. But upon doing some additional photo comparisons, I think Asmus Gandalf the White has the best likeness.

[@Jimmy-Wex]

Copium

[@JustinsCollection]

No problem, happy to help

[@Chi-townCollectorsCloset]

Hello Justin, will you be comparing inart gandalf to asmus gandalf the white? That being asmus' latest release, I believe that would be a more fair comparison in the defense of asmus.

[@JustinsCollection]

No sorry this video is already complete in my eyes. That would not be a fair comparison as that is a different version of Gandalf.

[@wadehill116]

Amazing figure! Anxiously awaiting their "The Batman" figure.

[@JustinsCollection]

Me too!

You reckon you'll do a review on the aragorn some time? stuff looks incredible man!

Of course!

Fantastic figure.Cant wait for mine.Rooted Aragon is next.👍😃

[@JustinsCollection]

I hope we get him soon!

[@YodaPagoda]

I really can't wait for this to arrive. I wonder how long it will take Inart to complete the Fellowship? I mean, let's be honest, we preordered Gandalf and Aragorn, and there's bound to be a Legolas and Gimli, along with some hobbits! And how would we make our memes without Boromir?

[@JustinsCollection]

I hope we get them all!

[@jamesmoore1473]

I really want to see an INART Anakin.

[@JustinsCollection]

That would be dope

[@Proktor44]

beautiful figure, I opened mine and it's perfect, but I have a problem with the two gripping hands because the magnets are wrongly placed and I can't use my hands. Is there any possibility, if I live in the UK, to get new ones and return the damaged ones? Apart from that, I am satisfied with the quality - it is truly unrivaled

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh no! May as well ask your seller

[@Proktor44]

@@JustinsCollection i will do thanks

[@BB-it3ks]

Fantastic figure, great review! Thanks so much. A suggestion. Instead of permanently trimming the string on his robe, you could wrap some of the extra length by wrapping it around his neck and over his shoulders. The beard should hide that nicely.

[@JustinsCollection]

True I could!

[@redadamearth]

That is one brilliant figure.

[@Timbulathespidermonk]

Sweet zombie Jesus!!! I was happy keeping my LOTR collection restricted to the 1/10 Iron Studios statues, but I might have to pull the trigger on this guy, especially if we get a Saruman to go along with him. I like the look of the Kaustic Plastik Christopher Lee Dracula thats coming, but if InArt did his face sculpt to the same level as this one, I’d have to pick him up.

[@JustinsCollection]

Dude this is next level!

@mohammedharib4880 Yeah, same here. I actually did read up on reviews for them before I ordered, and they still had a pretty decent rating in the fall of 2022. I had no issues with my InArt Joker, and most of the complaints I've seen have just been about orders being very slow, so I'm still hoping we'll get our Gandalfs still. Even Kit's shop has been able to fill only a fraction of orders still, so right now, we're all in the same boat. I'm still waiting on a Pennywise with Spec Fiction, too. Right now, InArt just means needing to be patient.

Did some research. And the designs not being on his pants/trousers is actually accurate. While the design that is on Asmus/Sideshow old figure do exists, it seem like it was left off filming and is only present on concept and display props. I have scorched everywhere for a picture of the pants, the clearest on is on Ian's website. It looked like the grey pants with weathering at the bottom. So maybe InArt did get it right lol
