JND: Justice League Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) Platinum 1:3

[user 72759]

I feel like this has the same issue as their Selina Kyle, the jaw is too big and the lips are too full, which is saying something because both actresses have full lips but they’re just too big on these sculpts. Looks like they got too much filler or stung by a bee.

Ironically, the only one they didn't mess up the lips on is mera, but who wants that one

That’s because her dog stepped on the bee before it could sting her face.

It’s gorgeous, but JND sometimes have issues with their lips, the bottom lips are over sized again.

HUH? The likeness looks bad. The 84 had much better likeness.

So what exactly is “platinum” supposed to mean other than the $3,100 price tag. I’ll probably PO since it’s a year off. I still have the golden armor NIB but this is the version I’ve been waiting for.

Got my order in!

This is going to be the statue to own in the collecting world for me, nothing comes close.

Pre-ordered too, deposit only.

Not looking forward to the $3,000 remaining balance bill in 2024.

I'm thinking about it but my bank balance will have a heart attack!

Obviously it's an impressive piece, but it needs to be on another level with the price they're asking for. The lips and lower half of her face are a big issue, and it's a shame because other than that I think it's pretty fantastic. I just personally think the 84 one had the better likeness.

Sold Out in just over an hour!

how many of the 1,000 statues does JND reserve for their direct orders and what is left for retailers?

50-50?

1,000 x $3,200 = $3,200,000 (Total Revenue)

Wonder what JND's profit margin is for this WW JL statue after factoring in all the R&D, overhead expenses, artists salaries, materials, etc.

Well, missed the PO direct from JND, hopefully I can get one elsewhere once
people start putting them up for sale.

obviously a very impressive piece. But like a few others have mentioned, there seems to be something a little off with the face. I think in their quest for it to be different than the WW84 sculpt they lost a little of the likeness in the process.

 

[generalszabo]

It's just the mouth, fix that and it would be perfect IMO

Maybe people find that more attractive, the bee stung look? Maybe it will sell more pieces because of it. It's just not accurate though

I'm not seeing the complaints with the lips to be honest, or the likeness being off. I think the likeness is there more than WW84, for me just at certain angles with how the neck joins and her jaw emanates from there in a way that doesn't seem natural. I'm guessing because they used the promo image as the base inspiration and then altered it imaginatively. Problem is in instances like that it can look off if even slightly done not wholly correct.

But lips/mouth? What's the issue?

If you think it looks close enough then that's good, you'll enjoy the final product. To me and many others the difference is clear though. Just look at all the posts on social media like JND collectors on FB. Going off the above pic, the nose is too full - you can see gal's is more angular. And the lips look like Angelina Jolie with a smeared lipstick look. Am not saying it isn't the most impressive statue of gal, maybe as an artist I see inaccuracies more than others. When the rest of it is so accurate, it just throws the likeness off

I have no horse in this race, but wow, this WW Statue looks tremendous!

You’re right, it’s the color smear. Catwoman had it too.
