Think of buying one and would like to know if it's worth it.
Would love to hear your thoughts.

He's a great statue. Personally, the premium format of him is my favorite but a lot of people think the likeness on this one is the best.

This one definitely has the best likeness. I would go for the exclusive. It's a very well done piece, perhaps the best in the line so far, along with Boromir.

Thinking of getting him and Arwen,and yes the PFF is awesome but SS hasn't released Arwen PFF,and I don't know if it will look as good as this one.

So I might go with what's available at the moment.

Not to mention when I get it I'll be asking a lot of question's about painting the eye's.

Hey guys,

I just bought this, but I'm considering cancelling my order. Does this look like a "wonky eye" version? If anyone has any high-res images of their own statue that would help.

Blast from the past! Seriously, how did you find this thread? I have a hard time finding old threads on here!

It's impossible to say from your pic's as those tend to add their own distortion, but based on the last one, it looks pretty good to me and probably displays just fine.

Yeah, I've never bumped such an old thread before. It came up in my Google search for images of the head sculpt, since I was a little worried about the eye issue. I think there is a bit of variation with the exact position of the eyes, but they appear to be looking in the same direction on this one, so I'll probably go through with it.

It's over ten years late, but here's a few images for anyone who is interested.

Great looking piece. I have the Aragorn PF, but that one needs a repaint to achieve the likeness, this one has a better Vigo likeness with the factory paint.
