No worries cking. I know you'll be happy with Superman and I'm almost sure you'll feel the same way about the CK statue once it's in hand. Just in case there's a tiny
chance you decide to sell him, keep me in mind.
My replacement arrived a day early 
. Definitely my favorite statue. Glad to have it back again

Thanks man
How are you liking your duo set up now that you've had them for a bit?
Fantastic. Really glad they came through with a nice replacement for you.My replacement arrived a day early
I LOVE that display case you've got him in - where did you get that from if you don't mind me asking?

As for the display case. I bought a glass curio cabinet on Amazon and did simple modifications to it. I glued the glass together using UV glue. Then I widened the grooves a bit on the top & bottom of the wood bases where the glass sits using a routing bit tool and my dremmel. As for the pedestal, I ordered that online.
Not sure if you wanted to know all that
but It was just a simple DIY glass display case idea i wanted to try which turned out well, IMO.
Lol. I seriously doubt it would survive the journey to you.

I was going to wait until the weekend where I'll have more time to clear out the spot where I'll be putting my CR statue and enjoy the unboxing experience, plus it's late and I'm tiredbut I was anxious to finally see it already. I did a quick unboxing and snapped a quick pic. First impression, this statue is incredible
. There are some great photos online but, as some have said, they still don't do this statue any justice. It's a totally different experience when seeing it in person
. It's no doubt Christopher Reeve. It's almost creepy how realistic looking the silicone portrait is. I also love how well the suit is sculpted. The cape feels high quality and drapes really well. I know the fortress of solitude themed bases have been done to death but I like the simplicity of this one. I guess my only gripe about this piece is there was a bit of loose rooted hair around the neck and little rooted hairs sticking out on the headsculpt which I was able to fix with a bit of water. I didn't notice any bald spots or areas on the sculpt where the hair could've come un-rooted(for lack of a better word), so not sure where the loose hair came from. Regardless, I couldn't be more happy to finally have a CR Superman statue in my collection
Again, here's a quick crappy pic I took
Congrats on the statue!
Have to ask, what is your Joker in? Looks like a mini Detolf??
EDIT: Just saw your post, glad you got a good replacement back also!

Unfortunately, I still don’t have a place for my JND piecesThanks man

so I’ve only done the unboxings at their point to make sure there weren’t any QC issues. I do plan to open it up again just to look at during the holiday this week if I have time though.
Thank you
. I'm definitely happy with JND providing a brand new replacement. I made the same display case for Joker as I did Superman. I also added spot lights in the Joker display case and will do the same for the Superman display case in a few days.Unfortunately, I still don’t have a place for my JND pieces
Gotcha. Well, in the meantime I have a spot your Clark Kent can occupy til you find a place for him
. Hopefully you can get them out and displayed soon. They're too awesome to be boxed up
Yea, they mentioned that this was going to happen in the JND news video that was released before the official production unboxing video.
Wonder what that does to the relationship between the two, does JND stop supplying that shop?
No idea but it wouldn’t surprise me if that was the case. I’m willing to bet that the shop thought they could handle/move JND’s product and got way less orders if any at all; therefore, couldn’t fit the bill to pay for however many they ordered. Or, maybe the shop went under so all that product they ordered just got push back to JND?
I think you’re on the money with this.
We forget how much of a gamble it is for these shops to stock such expensive product with how easy it is for people to cancel orders. We’re really going through a depression stage in collecting now.
