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

[1sixthcollector]

Looking at how wrinkled the glove sleeves are it’s either EXTREMELY thin material or sculpted? I may be in the minority in preferring the suited version to be a statue.

All the articulated versions out there suffer from peeling and suit damage even if you don’t pose them. The last thing I want is another peeling catwoman after a couple of years but paying that much for the privilege. Unless of course they find a magic material that doesn’t peel or stretch out of shape.

I dunno the proportions above the chest looks weird... very elongated.

Sculpt looks like an improvement from their 1/3.... but not quite at the level of Queen's batpod sculpt.

Yeah, Hate to be that guy but is it me or have they made her breasts really low down? Or is the chest above them too long? Compare to this pic. Something looks off there for sure.

But the eyes look awesome and the proportions are better than hot toys with its oversized ass and weird thighs/hips shapes.

I can’t believe we’re getting eyelashes on 1:6.

I've never picked up a Hot Toys Catwoman yet as I was waiting to see what JND and InArt offer, got to love having options rather than Hot Toys controlling the market.
I'm liking what I see so far with this JND though, apart from the boots which you have all pointed out.

This looks great

Eyes seem a little wide. The boots stand out sorely to me. But other than that, it's an impressive looking piece.

But is it fully articulated? Because otherwise, JND will have a serious problem to address for their sixth scale line.

That's very impressive.
I've seen it on customs before.

 

[WolfBoy]

Looks weird to me. Body proportions are odd, weird textures on the costume, likeness is more Ana DeArmas than Hathaway.

 

[Nick D]

Can’t believe these are the same scale.

A lot of their early prototypes look terrible. Their first Aragorn. Christopher Reeve Superman. Daenerys..

Then it gets better when orders are live. Then it gets worse come release time.

What I can't believe, is they're doing this before Batman. Or coming out of left field with a different character. They're setting themselves up for failure at this point.

Guess they didn’t want to compete again for the market at the same time as Hot Toys and JND for Bale like Joker. Eventually they will, but I’m not eagerly awaiting it by any stretch.

You couldn’t pay me to deal with all of these QC issues we’ve been seeing. On top of that, the new Hot Toys Rises Bruce sculpt is an absolute joke with the seam.

I’m thinking of just sticking
to the JND Armory and keeping the suit in there.

No real desire for a figure of that suit unless OT makes something happen with the next Armory release in ‘25. If I take a chance on InArt’s Bale,
he’ll likely not be in scale with anything else but itself.

You've already got the suit for Bale. Why not pick up a sculpt? Does JND not offer the armory by itself?

I meant the TDK Bat-suit.

I’ve got the Iris Armani suit ordered for BW.
But I was planning on using whatever parts I liked from JND with that suit and other custom bits.

JND only offers
Type A - Bruce Wayne
Type C - Bruce Wayne + Bat-suit + Armory.

No B option like Joker had.

I've never bought with JND before and the silicone for 1/6 scale never really pulled me in but this is intriguing. Maybe it's InArt's paint apps but I can see the benefits of that silicone material when going for a softer face like Selina

Ah, that's odd. Why is there an A and a C, and no B? I don't understand their nomenclature. But an option B with just the armory could have have been your best option I think.

Yeah it looks a bit strange, plus it's funny they're delaying showing the likeness without the mask, I thought their statue looked ok with the mask but was pretty terrible without it, so I'm really curious how this turned out. The sculpt looks ok so far, but I'm still not sure I like how silicone looks in 1/6.

 

[HyperDrive]

So far, I’ll echo some qualms with this. The silicone portrait is unnecessary and the likeness isn’t that good, especially for the asking price (I’ll use this argument here with JND).

But I’ll #waitforinart. That’ll be more than enough for me.
