Gotta be a lot cheaper than JND and looks REALLY good...
JND is just not worth it. Great statue figures, but the price isn't worth the entry....I don't collect 1/6, but these prices are slowly pushing me down that road.

I'm right there now. These new InArt pieces, if they do deliver, are very tempting for a museum-like movie display since they have magnetized feet (no ugly crotch-grabber stands) and try to avoid seams whenever possible with their swappable hands with forearms included. (Shirtless characters couldn't still escape the toy look, though.)

I have probably nearly a hundred Hot Toys figures and probably 80-90% don’t use the waist or crotch grabbers etc. Given that most of them are in simple poses it’s not really required.

It would still make me angsty to display them like that, knowing they could easily topple. And I think it's more limiting in what the stance should be in order for them to stand, compared to magnetized feet.

I used to hate crotch grabbers also and I used to display my 1/6 without them, until we got hit by a little earthquake in Texas, go figure.
Anyway, my Hot Toys Ironman took a swan dive and several pieces were all over the place.

I've learned to live with it. Eventually, once you get a nice pose, you start to overlook them. But that's what's cool about Inart, this magnetized feet should have been implemented years ago.
But it wouldnt surprise me if Hot toys will eventually follow if this becomes a big deal with collectors once they received Inart figures.

So what's with the FB video with the hanging suit? Is that an accessory?

Will there be a second Bruce Wayne figure...like JND?

And when do we see pics of the CAR??!!

Like some have mentioned, I really wanted to love JND, and display their statues in a covered acrylic pedestal like a museum, but their prices + not great likenesses + quality control = I'm out...

Hopeful that this 1:6 InArt line can scratch that itch for a fraction of the cost...

I'm actually "scared" to jump into 1/6 (again) - I'm not sure if action figures can really go head to head with statues....

My wallet is all for it though.

I think like you said a couple months ago, can see a lot of collectors moving back to 1/6, because of prices (among other reasons). I agree.
