    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    To be honest, there is way too much here to respond to as I feel like I've severely derailed this thread (sorry). What I will say though is that things can often be misinterpreted through text as it's hard to determine someone's tone or what they really mean. I never intended to insult you and...

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    I didn't insult you my friend, not sure how you came to that conclusion. I think you misinterpreted what I said. The fact that you said you were underwhelmed by the prototype too proves my point. The product hasn't changed (for the worse anyway). You complained back then, yet you're making the...

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    Imagine being underwhelmed by a production piece that looks the same (if not better) as the prototype that was shown over a year ago, as though you expected something completely different. Hot Toys collectors criticising a statue they had no intention of buying, and claiming they didn't buy it...

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    Who's underwhelmed by it? Hot Toys collectors and people who didn't even order the statue, or have no intention of buying it? Sure it's not perfect, but I'm yet to see a single person who ordered this statue who is underwhelmed by that portrait. It's getting nothing but praise in the statue...

    Oh right. Yeah not everyone likes it I think. Personally I think the the best Bruce Wayne sculpt out of the 3 1/3 statues. In fact, I prefer it over Hot Toys' efforts too.

    A little too square. I think the answer lies somewhere in the middle. They definitely made his face a little too angular. I think they did the best job on his facial features (although nose is a bit narrow) and paint, but QS got the face shape right.

    Best review of the single version yet. The detail is insane.

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    This was my biggest gripe with the QS when I owned it. It didn't look like a real person's head was under the mask. His mouth was very big, which was odd as it wasn't in proportion with the rest of the headsculpt. Whilst the JND certainly has inaccuracies (none that are major to me anyway)...

    Haha, tbh it's tempting the first time but the novelty wears off. They're more durable than people think. I only squeezed my joker slightly when I first got it as I was curious to see what it felt like. That guy overdoes it for sure lol

    Looks good to me 🤷‍♂️ I loved it in Wiki Figure's review. I don't trust phone pics. We all like what we like. Enjoy your figures.

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    I had the QS piece and I couldn't disagree more. The proportions are weird, mouth area is very odd, belt colour is bright gold, cape is fixed to the body and the material used is a little transparent (not evident in pics) as it's so thin. Significantly different? Really? Gonna have to agree to...

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    To be fair, I don't think they ever said it's the most accurate (even though it is), just that it's the best rendition of Christian Bale's Batman, and tbh they're right. Which Bale statue is better than this? I've owned them all. Whilst this isn't perfect, they've gotten the closest out of...

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    This piece could literally be 100% accurate to the film and people here would still find a way to criticise it lol. It's always the case with JND pieces. JND is known to take artistic liberties with their statues. They've always done that. Whilst I certainly agree it's not totally accurate to...

    This came out insanely good. They nailed Batman IMO, and the skin paint on Bruce Wayne is insane. It's amazing how much JND have improved since they first started. Never thought we would see this kind of quality in mass produced statues.

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    Yeah fair enough man. I'm not a fan of the character either, and only buy statues of characters I love. You made the right choice.

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    I had the QS piece, and while the matte finish on the carbon fibre is more accurate, QS use a paint to achieve that look which actually comes off while cleaning it, which I experienced in a small section. I prefer how JND did it. Not only does it look better, but no risk of paint damage.

    JND Studios: The Dark Knight - Bale Batman 1:3

    They turned out great hey. Best representation of these characters for sure. The new paint technique is insanely good. Batman turned out better than I expected. Any chance you can still get Harley from somewhere? I'm biased, but I'd take Batman any day just because I prefer the character...

    Yeah fair enough. Single for me also. Mainly due to price, and also because I didn't like how they were displayed on angles. I'm happy enough with the single Bruce head. Pretty excited to receive it after seeing the new pictures.

    Did you get the Duo set? If so, you'd be in for a treat. The exciting part about Harley is definitely the mixed media, I just don't care for the character personally and I think her face came out a little weird. Pretty excited to receive Batman though. Hopefully we get shipping notices soon.
