I've yet to see an InArt figure that I want. Couple dioramas but not actually figure. I pre-ordered the Joker out of fomo but sold it before I even got it in hand.

Finally an objective review. Thanks for sharing. Agree with many of your points especially with regards to the head sculpt and rooted hair. Definitely not a “hot toys killer” as many have claimed.

I'm sorry but I think the sculpt on this just looks bad. It's maybe a slight improvement over the dx11. The new Hot Toys one and the JND look great assuming the production pieces look good.
@optical208 сағат бұрын
Its not horrible.. But once you factor in the price saying it isn't horrible shouldn't be the case.
@CheerfulCroquet-ri8pj12 сағат бұрын
I always thought this seemed off the more and more I saw it. inart makes pretty nice stuff but I’m happy they got hot toys off their asses to finally give customers more in terms of moving eyes and better materials. Compared to the dx11 this is obviously better and I feel like hot toys artisan joker will end up beating this in the future.
@optical208 сағат бұрын
It is better than DX11 for sure.. It should be because DX11 is 10 years old. With that being said it is not bad but it is far from the "hot toys Killer" everyone is claiming inart to be.

What I don’t like about the InArt Gandalf photos of people I see - too much hair ,and is pre styled wrongly and InArt puts so much product it looks like sculpted . My suggestion would be to- wash the hair with hot water and let it air dry ,style it before it fully dries . But I’m guessing next year the same time InArt Gandalf will go for retail or lower on the secondary as well ,considering it’s already offered for 700 shipped in the BTS groups . Since a lot of people bought a lot of figures ,not because they cared for their franchises ,but because it’s InArt . And now regret and are selling .

@@optical20 thanks! It’s really mainly in the washing ( or just wetting it ,depending on how much product it has inside )the hair ,putting some leave in conditioner ,and depending on how the hair acts either style and let air dry ,or blow dry slightly then style . I can’t wait to get that InArt Aragorn in hand so I can fix his hair … I think a haircut for the bangs might be necessary there .

I didn't have any weathering on mine. I got mine over a year ago, and i only had an issue one time with the base. After i found the right pose, it hasn't fallen down or moved in 9 months. But the weapons i agree with, it pulled the hand out, and i dont like how they didn't include extra hand pegs like hot toys does. I love mine, though , but i do have 9 jokers 😂😂 so I'm kind of a ledger fan. I also went with the scuplted cause i didn't know Jack about this company, and this was their 1st figure. Last be careful with the stick for the eyes. A lot of people had them break and i agree with the eyes throwing it off. I feel my hot toys artisan is gonna own all the jokers i have, even my customs. But thats just me. Great vid

@optical20 I think it holds up just fine and was a great introduction for Inart. I can only assume they'll get better, but their rooting is fantastic. KZreadrs seem to be in awe because they want Inart to succeed so badly. They'll hype it up regardless, especially if they're part of the initial "influencer" batch. You continue to earn my respect.

@LivanVellnight6 күн бұрын
If you're just looking for the MK-6 without gantry, you could try getting the 1st release version on the secondary market instead? The MK-6 with gantry came with extra inner parts that the solo reissue version doesn't have. So those folks who bought it to display with the gantry would be selling off their existing MK-6 in their collections. Unlike the MK-3 where its a 3.0, reissued Ironmans would have a higher supply in the secondary market since they're practically the same figure?

I realize that inner parts of Mark VI come with the gantry which you can buy it separately. You don’t have to sell 1.0 Mark VI if you already have it. Correct me if I’m wrong.

I only have Valkerie from this line as she's the only Valkerie by Hot Toys at the moment, but I have no one to accompany her in my collection. I never pre-ordered Mighty Thor, but I'd be kidding myself if I say this figure doesn't look good. The figure looks absolutely beautiful, but I have no connection to this god awful movie. I'll eventually grab her to go along with Valkerie, but it'll have to be at a discount, or used with a nice used price tag. No way I'm paying retail for this figure, no matter how good it is if I have no connection whatsoever to the source material.
