Looks good to me 
Previous DamToys statues weren’t widely available, so I wonder if this will be restricted to locations as well.

Even if a little off it is still better than most waxworks I have seen so decent display piece. If they can update the sculpt to improve it a little and actually price it affordably I might be tempted, though would prefer 1:6 or 1:1. 1:3 scale would be an awkward fit in the collection

Should be less than what JND charges.

lol that's good to hear! I was using JND as a reference in my mind, thinking this might cost $2K-$3K, if it's less than that I might consider it!
If you're into classic Hollywood or movie stars memorabilia, I think this is a pretty cool piece to own. Looks great to me.

Are you purchasing the 1/3 or 1:1 bust?
I’m on the fence because this company is unproven when it comes to silicone and these scales - IIRC, they specialize in 1/6 military figures.
The likeness is good in some angles/distance but then slightly off at other viewing angles - one of the few collectibles I can subjectively recall this discrepancy (I think it’s mainly her eyes). If this were a smaller scale, I could brush it off but at a larger scale and at this high a price, it’s more difficult not to nit pick.
Hope we get to see this “out in the wild” at a con or show.
Neither, it's not something I'm interested in, I just appreciated the skill and art. Their World of Warcraft pieces in 1/4 were very nice as well.
