But you can drop their boxes a dozen times and not break the statue inside!That has to count for something, right?

No i got that, the Selina is clearly fabric. I was talking about the Catwoman latex.
Considering how most of the Cabwoman is sculpted, i'm not sure why the cost is as high as their other figures that require extra silicone/tailoring. Oh well.

I agree. A $1600 would have been right. However jnds sculpt on that head is incredible. The stitching alone on that mask is better than p1. The cat pet is also very well done. Where the p1 is kinda silly. It still doesn't justify the extra $700. But they also know their pieces sell out so o guess they will raise up until it gets a push back. Personally a penguin would be outstanding. But the one I'm waiting for is a 1/3 Ripley from ALIEN

Oh, i get it, they charge those prices because well.....they can haha, it's part of the premium product attraction.
$1600 would've been nice but there's also no precedent for that price from them either so having that expectation seems unfounded. Don't get me wrong, I'd have love for that to have been the price, but had no delusion in thinking it would be so. I expected this to be around $2300. With this one being only $1999, it actually is a price reduction compared to recent pieces rather than price hike.

Oh I absolutely purchased it. The only hesitation I had was the deposit is much higher than other companies. 400 is wild lol. I chose to do the 400 and pay the rest in the end which gives me some extra time to put money on the side. I'm also paying off another 1/3 and I'm waiting for the p1 doll to ship.
I was definitely getting this piece regardless.
Besides the 1/3 Star trek statues the rest of there line they are behind the times with quality and with high prices . My guess is they will be the 1st major statue company to go out of business in this current collectible market crash .
Oh I completely agree! I just paid off my JL Superman and was sorta taken aback again at how much the deposit was for that
but they know those who want one of their pieces enough will pay it

If Jnd did a Ripley 1/3 I'd absolutely find a way. Especially if her likeness was spot on. With the cat and the flamethrower hunched over and sweaty.Oh I completely agree! I just paid off my JL Superman and was sorta taken aback again at how much the deposit was for that
Selina looks more like the kid from Gotham than Pfeiffer. I mean, the kid does look like Pfeiffer, but still...
funny. I do like the sculpts on her though. I especially think Catwoman is incredible. I need to see if I can fit her in the collection, but I sure do want her. She's the best female

Maybe it’s the harsh lighting on civilian Selina Kyle but i feel this is not one of their stronger head sculpts or rooted hair works. Still keeping my duo PO though.
I noticed in this screenshot from the movie, her hair should have more different shades of blonde (or maybe darker roots?) - it’s too uniform and light on JND but I’m no hair expert.

It should have darker roots, yes. I think the full blonde hair is what throws it off a little. The face is great though. I just think the hair needs tweaking, but I'm not sure if doing darker roots is something that can be done for hand punched hair like this.
They would probably need to hand paint some darker roots on the hairs after it is punched.

I chose the back railing to have the option to display with or without.
Although JND did mentioned there would be peg holes on the base if the railing were removed.
Also, they could not definitively answer whether the cat requires a peg rod to secure it onto the back rail or if it just balances on top freely. TBD per JND via email.
My concern was if the cat has a peg rod, can it be removed or how does it secure to the base if the back rail is removed?
Amazing how good the Catwoman head looks (to me, the best of the 1/3s) but the Selina Kyle needs work.WonderFest 2024:
