JND / Kojun Works: The Dark Knight Rises - 1/6 Selina Kyle / Catwoman

[Hologram AI]

Might be somewhat tempted if they offer her in the suit alone and if the likeness there. Zero interest in having her maid outfit. Weird choice there but I guess they’re also doing broken Bruce Wayne for some reason.

I don’t understand the appeal for Kravitz Catwoman.
I mean sure she looks good but don’t they all?
That’s like base level.

I don’t believe she’s as good an actress as Hathaway and her suit leaves a bit to be desired. Not saying Anne was perfect, but much more memorable to me. I feel like she had the right balance of cunning and manipulation as well as charm, something the others don’t have.

Well Kravitz had a mystery and edginess to her that was a great compliment to Pattinson's Batman I thought. And she wasn't going out of her way to be sexy and seductive in her Catwoman outfit like most others tend to; she was just there to get the job done, which was a refreshing change.

Plus the fact we haven't gotten like 5000 statues and figures of her Catwoman yet like we have the others.

And sure her early Year One suit wasn't the greatest design, but she still looked really damn good in it.

Given that they’re including the handcuffs, I would think they would also include the black jacket to put on top of the black maid dress to give the look of the arrest scene. Maybe even the hat and swap out arms with the black gloves. I guess we’ll find out what all she comes with the week of Christmas

As far as the thought of them doing TDKR “recluse” Bruce Wayne— I took that note in the video to mean that the base she’s standing on is the base from the TDK Bruce Wayne and Batman Type-C set, and not the final base that she’s actually going to come with. Not a teaser that they’re also planning “recluse” Bruce Wayne

I can’t imagine they won’t do a Michelle Catwoman and Selena civilian

They're already doing a 1/3rd, so yes.....i'm sure a 1/6th will be done eventually.

 

[sj2106]

kind or insane to see a pretty much fully seamless, poseable figure. No visible joints whatsoever


It probably has more to due with the popularity of Nolan’s trilogy more so than this Catwoman specifically.

Yeah I understand I'm in a minority. Nolan's trilogy is crazy popular. I still consider Begins a masterpiece, the best Superhero origin film to date. Outside of Ledger's performance as the Joker the other two films just don't hold much interest for me.

 

[Bleah]

So it's just a civilian outfit? Will there be a costume version and if so, is it a statue also?

 

[HyperDrive]

JND Kojun has yet to do something that looks good and worth it for the asking price. I doubt this Catwoman will be any different.

They do pump them out though, gotta give ‘em that.

There will be a Catwoman costume version, but no word yet on if it will be a posable figure or a statue like their Batman

 

[Hologram AI]

If it's poseable, I wonder if they're using their silicone under the suit? Would help getting rid of the issue of the joint peaking through the suit. Curious to see how that would even work given the material though.

 

[Nick D]

If the Maid figure is posable I’m sure the suited version will also be. The only reason the Bale Batsuit was a statue was due to them 3D printing the suit in individual parts.

No 3D printing here.

Because she’s the most comic accurate.

Will never understand the popularity of this Catwoman.

Pfeiffer and Kravitz far more interesting portrayals.

I’m mainly interested in this figure as an Anne Hathaway fan.

But the price will probably scare me away from ordering.

 

[Nick D]

Perhaps visually,
but not if we’re talking about her characterization.

She didn’t have the personality or the ability to act and deceive that Catwoman must have.

You could absolutely read her like an open book, all of her intentions were at surface level. Not a good look.

Anne was the best at that from any we’ve had.

 

[Stanlore]

I'm a very shallow person. I only care about who was visually attractive and for me which Anne Hathaway and Julie Newmar are my favorite Catwoman. Pfeiffer was pretty, but not as much with the suit on. Personal opinions, but still ordered the Jazzinc Deluxe.

That said, Inart will be fine for me. Not so in love to drop +$800 for Selina Kyle.

 

[WolfBoy]

I LOVE ALL THE CATWOMEN!!!!

Can’t argue with your reasoning with superficiality.

JND is differentiating itself with the maid outfit so for me, that’s tempting since InArt may not offer that outfit.

 

[Spiln3r]

What's the point to have this Selina?
Who care and who wants it??

I want i catwoman, and not an expensive dual pack.
And i hope that the HS will be better than their statue...

To be fair, Kravitz's portrayal wasn't even a fully realized Catwoman yet. To each their own, but as much as I like Anne Hathaway this role was was completely forgettable for me. I like Pfeiffer, but that is my own Keaton nostalgia showing and if I'm honest she isn't even really "Catwoman" as what I have known the character to be in comics.

I guess what I'm saying is that Catwoman is meh for me as a character in general lol. However, I'm curious to see how this likeness turns out compared to their 1/3 offering. The fully seamless look is cool. I'm sure this Kojun line will get me eventually, but for now I'm just interested to see how they deliver and the line progresses. JND's final product of Reeve Superman was great to my eye and if they could beat Inart to the punch for a 1/6 offering then...

I hope so.

I don't understand the huge appeal with Hathaway's Catwoman. She was fine. Uncharismatic I feel. But surely there are other characters they can prioritise.

I'm eager to own a silicone piece from JND, but it has to be the right figure for me. And that list is narrowing down.

Pfeiffer's my top choice for this kind of treatment. That's a dream figure from JND.

I don't like how they do the slow reveals either. Too much drama. It's contrived.
