Queen Studios: LOTR - Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen)

Looks cool as hell. That photo reminds of that horror movie ‘The Fog’.

The problem with these "reveals" is that they don't really do anything. I mean, what's the difference between showing a silhouette and making a worded statement.

I can't see anything here that entices me to want to buy this (or any of the other LotR) statues......which is a really dumb move from QS, when they have a heavy amount of competition in this space.

What scale is it? Is it full sculpted or mixed media? Price point? Availability regional or global?......you know what, forget it.....I'll spend the money at Infinity and P rime1 where I know what is actually on offer.

Silhouette: you can see the pose.
Worded statement: you can't.

Very true. But, that's not nearly enough for me to consider committing my hobby dollars.

I'm intrigued, but no more than I was when they announced they were doing LotR - in contrast, Infinity has my deposit.....if QS can pay their staff, and keep the lights on with my intrigue alone....then more power to them.

I like the look of this silhouette, but I'd have to see more before I would consider cancelling my Prime 1 Aragorn. I admit I prefer this relaxed depiction of him in the "Strider" motif. Hopefully, this is 1/4 or 1/3. I like what Infinity Studio are doing as well, but that Legolas is simply too big for my collection, and I'm not keen on mixed media.

Update - I contacted Queen Studios, and they suggested the statue may be 1/6, so it looks like I'll be hanging onto that Prime 1 order.

Oh my God.....they want to go head to head with Weta.

Another nail in the coffin of larger scale statues.....it's Pompeii all over again. I blame Putin.

I'm all about 1/6 LOTR statues. I know these will be movie statues but I'd love to see Glorfindel, Erkenbrand and Helm the Hammerhand.

I admit I was hoping for something in a larger scale. I/6 is already very overcrowded. I just wish the Prime 1 base wasn't so busy. I'd have much preferred a 1/4 or 1/3 with a natural base, akin to this old weta 1/6.
