Re: Sideshow LOTR Aragorn Part 2
This will probally be my next pick-up with the recent acqusition of Legolas. The only thing that I really dislike about the figure is that headsculpt. I just don't get how they botched that so baddly from proto to production. I still think it is one of the better Aragorn figures, I just wish they could put the GG bust headsculpt on this figure. It will display nicely next to Legolas so I pretty much have to get it now. Good thing that SS figures don't break the bank.

Re: Sideshow LOTR Aragorn Part 2
if you keep him with his bangs in front of his eyes and tilt his head down a bit, he looks pretty damn good bro.
It's just when you have him looking upwards in a brightly lit place that you can see all the flaws.

Re: Sideshow LOTR Aragorn Part 2
Just took some quick pics of how I have him posed along with legolas right now. I think Edwin also mentioned that he likes shooting aragorn from above because of the eyebrow issue. I think he looks pretty good but definitely could have been better, with the paint apps on the brows and goatee.
But again, personally I only notice those things when in a brightly lit condition or up close. If youre a normal distance away, most likely the figure will have some sort of shadowing on his face which makes him look pretty cool.

Re: Sideshow LOTR Aragorn Part 2
Thanks brothers. it's hard to tell in the pic from the lack of depth, but he's sort of in mid-stride stepping forward about to whoop some orc ass.
Last night I finally fixed up my Legolas quiver and punched 3 small holes in his cloak to make it look screen accurate.
