JND Studios: Superman (Christopher Reeve) 1:3

[Gipetto0812]

I agree with you guys that this will be a grail piece for sure. I can't see another officially licensed piece that will top this anytime soon, especially from a final production quality and realism standpoint. None of the Sideshow pieces have done it, and I doubt whether Darkside Collectibles' one will every be released. Even if it is, it won't come close to this as far as detailing goes based on how their Returns Catwoman came out. Same with Prime1/Blitzway. I'm sure KA Kim would knock the sculpt out of the park, but I doubt it would survive the production process unless there's a Black Label or Platinum version

Yes, I'm with you on the issues regarding Prime 1 / Blitzway's lack of being able to provide a production piece that is in the same league as the prototype. I NEARLY pushed the button on purchasing their Keaton Batman / Bruce Wayne, but having seen how the cowl looks on the Batman, I decided not to get it.

Also, when you see the painted resin Bruce Wayne alongside the Silicone pieces from JND, it really stands out as being "not realistic". It's the same with the NewDreamProps 1:3 Reeve. It just doesn't have the realism to it even with a great paintjob.

Here's a good example of how NOT to take a photo! Excellent example on the left compared to horribly lit with terrible lens distortion on the right!
